How much trust can you have for your manager? Apparently not much. In fact for my case today, I will say none at all. My counterpart at my company’s customer’s side has been a nice friend and she had told me some news regarding her employment and work environment. I know the news were given in confidence. However, when I had to inform my marketing manager about her resignation (as it will affect a project we are working on), the manager actually wanted to call her immediately to query. I let slipped the news to the manager in good faith that the manager can be prepared. But the result was that I was made to look bad. The manager’s character is definitely flawed and I swear I won’t lift another finger to help unless ordered to. Now my problem is how can I make up to my friend…

1. Hey Hi James! my first time writing comments to yr blog…oh…i hope u know or rem who i am…(go to my friendster if u don’t) ;P
after reading yr blog, just wana say don’t be so hard on yrself…pls also don’t start thinking everyone’s no good, and stop trusting everyone, esp yrself…if u really treasure this friend, make it up to her, give yr best but don’t press…in this mundane life, not everything u think that is important is important…if she’s really yr friend, she’ll understand u didn’t mean harm…if she’s not yr friend, whatever u say don’t really matter…:)

2. Winnie!! Of cos I rem u, how can I forget. Don’t worry, I won’t be going around distrusting people. One good thing about being on a wheelchair is that I more or less can be sure people are sincere when they approach me. But even having said that, some things really make one wonders whether one should place the same level of trust as before on some people. A co-worker just told me about some backstabbing going on lately. Really dun understand why someone would resort to such action…
