Resignation Uncut

Okay. So I finally made it out of the
hellhole that has been tormenting me for the last 6 months. I am now
officially tendering my resignation from the company I’ve grown to love
but loathe in the end because of the inevitable invasion of rotten
politics.

I’ve always believed that I should hang on to my ethical practices and
have my moral compass checked from time to time. Having to witness the
slow but evident moral decay of the program I’m in has definitely added
fuel to my disgust and disappointment. But ultimately, I wouldn’t have
stood up to my beliefs if I was not the victim. The odds are stacked
against me and I simply couldn’t take it anymore.

It’s hard for me to leave the first company I’ve ever worked for.
Convergys has provided me with so much growth professionally and
financially. But when it comes to character, I would say that I was
challenged. I don’t admit to being self-righteous but this is already
deplorable. I’ve come to be lead by the notion of integrity and lived
by it as much as I can. It turns out that I was terribly wrong. People
will do their best to spite you and get ahead whenever they can. Be it
from the simple information you basically knew to the biggest and most
complex of machinations a superior can do to answer a favor. I
certainly am not naive when it comes to reading people in general but
this is a different kind of setting altogether. Persons you thought
will cover your back are much more vicious than they seem to be. I’ll
be discussing them more in detail but then again, you know my point.

I am now jobless. Yes, some of you would think,"Ang tanga tanga niya,
aalis siya dito nang walang kapalit na work." On one side, it can be
true: I need to live practically in order to survive. Isn’t money the
sole purpose of us getting jobs anyway? But on the flipside I have my
moral dictates that I cannot simply work for a person or group of
people whom I think are not good role models. Most especially, if they
are power-trippers and plain unprofessional.

I may not have security financially within the next few days but I know
I have my values intact. Besides, even if I stayed there for the love
of money, I’ll rot of the stench of the management’s wrongdoings. I’d
rather have not been accepted for the MDP position. I already know how
evil and repulsive the process is. Such victory will not be considered
sweet anymore.

I am going my way now to be uncompromising to my values and at least
find a better company as far as living up with its reputation is
concerned. For now, I would just like to thank CVG for one thing: these
bunch of people I have come to know, mingle, taunt, laugh, dine out,
ride home, and compete with. They are the people who have taught me
more to life than I ever have learned in my collegiate days. I am in
the real world now. It’s kinda shocking for now, but I’ll get by.
Anyhow, I still thank you immensely.

To the Mentor Team: I don’t know if this information is accurate pero
Salamat! sa pagpili niyo sa akin. I am so honored to be part of this
prestigious team (though it really started out at the wrong foot). I’m
happy that sama-sama tayong lumago at kahit isa isa tayong nauubos, the
name “Mentor” will forever be engraved in our souls.

  • Lem – proud ako sa’yo! You’ve been the most positive person out
    here and I admire that. Actually, when I thought of resigning the first
    time, what you said about “proving something” has changed my mind.
    Though, tinalo pa rin talaga ako ng ipis infestation.
  • Nei - hay naku tama na ang pagsabi mo ng “a dik”. Baliw ka
    talaga. Seriously, I thought at first you were on the antipatiko side
    pero pareho lang pala tayong antipatiko. Hehe. Hindi, marami rin akong
    natutunan sa’yo. Salamat!
  • Emile – you know what you want kaya ang masasabi ko lang ay “Go!
    Go! Go!” Practical ka sa buhay. Wag ka gumaya sa ‘kin. Aalis nang
    walang ipangbabayad sa Citibank. I will never forget the “hoe_liday”
    references at ang Mini-Me sa friendster. Haha!
  • Mac – Mamam na! Isa ka sa mga taong alam ang mga nangyayare sa
    office so it’s nice to know that I’m not the only one. I respect you
    for still being professional despite the fact na pikon na pikon ka na
    sa mga events. Tang-ina nila, mga manggagamit, pero Mac, may
    patutunguhan ren tyo! Kampai!
  • Bard – pasensya na kung pero negative naririnig mo kapag
    nag-ha-huddle ako sa team dahil dissatisfied na talaga sila sa palakad
    eh. I’m happy nakilala kita at na-witness ko kung gaano ka ka-dedicated
    sa trabaho. I hope you didn’t get too swayed by my revolutionary
    speeches. Ang kaibahan lang natin is: ikaw mayroon pang mararating sa
    company  na ‘to, ako wala na. Good luck!
  • Christian – ang famous hazelnut eyes at 3K hairdo ng Team Raven!
    Haha! Well, I just like to say thanks for sharing some stories with me.
    I appreciate the trust. Pero mashado ka naman secretive, nabiktima ka
    tuloy ng mga teammates mo! Well, good luck sa mga next months! Salamat!
  • Allan – wag ka na kasing magmura, it will help you a lot. Alam mo,
    sa tingin ko luck played a major part of your growth somehow. Be
    thankful. But still, I won’t deny, magaling ka ren talagang agent.
    Nacoconceal lang cos akala nagbibiro ka lagi, hehehe. You are patient
    and thriving, and I salute that. Salamat sa mga yosi breaks dahil
    nakilala ko pa yung mas seryosong side mo. Sodexho!
  • JC – next time, magdala ng kapote. Kabaligtaran naman kayo ni
    Allan. Kala ko naman shy type ka. OMG! Nagoyo ako! Haha. But seriously,
    just set your priorities straight and everything will follow. I hope
    yung mga sinabi ko ren sa inyo before helped somehow.
  • Popo – thanks for considering me as one of your best friends. I was
    surprised kasi antipatiko ako and I always have a ready pintas to
    somebody. But you always have a good word for anyone. I told you
    before, you’re so nice I wanna hate you cos it makes me look so filthy.
    Thanks for your insights in music, dami kong nakilalang bagong artists!
  • Cooky – hay masuwerte ka. In a few months, you’ll be the real MDP
    Goddess at di lang sya birubiruan! Watch ka na lng sa mga teammates mo
    dahil bitter yan! Hahaha joke lng! At ang suwerte mo rin dahil 500 mo
    lang nabili headset ko!
  • Gary – the last woman standing. Grabe, ang dami na nating
    napagkwentuhan. You’re a person of great depth na minsan hindi ko na
    maskayan pero nagegets pa rin. Thanks for keeping my mind away from
    stuff from time to time. It sure did help me enormously to have an open
    mind listening to me. I hope, like you I can say, “Fuck the world! I’m
    going out on my own!” Basura.
  • Madge – Mother! Salamat sa mga inside scoop mo and by making me
    laugh with your sharp panglalait. Apir! Sana happy ka na dahil wala ka
    nang kasamang ipis sa buhay mo. Tuloy tuloy na ‘yan. I’m glad that even
    if it was for a short time, I got to know you. You are a good Big
    Sister to your family. Godbless!
  • Mama Mel – ang mama ng bayan. Salamat sa mga mature pieces of
    advise and never forgetting to give me a booze up whenever I feel
    confused or dejected. It sure was an honor to be your friend. First
    conversation natin, yung Tier 2 Issue Tracker lang, pero ngayon ang
    dami ko na nakukuwento sa’yo! Thanks for the open-mindedness Mel!
    Magkukuwentuhan pa rin tayo soon.
  • Jing – the sage. I have a high regard for your wisdom. You’ve
    clearly erased my mind of anything unconstructive with your prudent
    snippets and taps to reality. You certainly have a go-get-‘em attitude
    with you. Thanks for teaching me to be spontaneous and take things as
    part of destiny’s endgame.
  • Blue – happy ako kase happy kang tao. Mahilig kang tumawa and to be
    honest, it helped me too. I’m almost masungit everyday but when you
    laugh on the most trivial of things, I can’t help but blurt a giggle on
    my own. Hope things will go well over there.
  • Lance – wala nang nag-alaga ng Bubbler dito kainis. Hay. Sana may
    mga bosses na mag-alaga sa inyo diyan. Go! Go! Go! Salamat sa support
    and I will do the same and pray for your success as well.
  • Dru – pasalamat ka sa mabilis na panahon nagkaroon ka kaagad ng
    work. Almost that easy. Ako, super hirap na ngayong maghanap. No money
    pa. Akalain mo namang may patutunguhan pala ang pride. But seriously,
    thanks for the friendship.
  • Usher – walang kupas. Official emblem ka pa rin ng Friendster
    account ng Ravens. Haha. Good luck sa mga future endeavors. Nalalagas
    na Wave 5. We may have fallen together but we will grow apart.

Mahal ko ang Team Raven!

Most of the reasons that I left my beloved work are because of these
people and the events that I associated them with. At first, I thought
I could be able to tolerate the amount of wrong I witness each and
every day. But then again, as days passed by, I grew not only agitated
but disgusted by the exhibition of total power-trip from the people I
was supposed to consider "role models". Hindi ako naghuhugas kamay kasi
‘di naman ako naging completely honest sa trabaho ko, pero ‘yung
garapal na..teka chong ‘di ko na yata kaya yun! I had to choose between
my moral upbringing and practically. Obviously, you know what I picked.

  • Ipis
    - shempre isa lang masasabi ko sayo: Tang-na mo! When you first came
    here I was like: "Hmm…okay…new face, with less sungit kasi younger." Sobrang mali ako. It turns out you’re this cheap whore. I
    need not mention the details but then again, when there’s smoke,
    there’s fire. So, cross out ka na sa pagiging good example. Ay,
    professional ka ba? Potah, wala kang silbe! To the highest level. Lahat
    ng tanong ng subordinates mo may isa kang sagot: "I-fa-follow-up ko…"
    Shiyet. Anong klase yan? I know we should look after the well-being
    of their employees but I’ve never seen a superior who’d cut anyone off
    if he or she doesn’t suit their individual goals. Quick fix baga. Lahat ng
    qualifications for and qualities of a good leader ikaw kabaligtaran. Wala
    kang silbi. To be fair, you are a so-so individual…but you’re just a
    moonfaced @#!@!
  • The rest of the Power Group - pabida pa naman dati yung iba
    sa inyo before you came. Wala naman kayo dinala kundi kunsimisyon
    samin. I know a lot from your career history and I simply couldn’t
    respect individuals such as this group. All of you are just victims of
    yourselves. But I’m not gonna follow. I’m not gonna be the person I
    hated. I’ve heard the sales pitch once, and I was enticed, but not this
    time. You may have been good professionals, but you suck as people.
    Choose which do you wanna be.
  • McFugly Assface Quasi-Girly Bitch - plastik ka. Yun lang. di
    kita kilala ng lubusan pero you know how much I performed in my way to
    the top. Pasalamat na sana ako umabot ako sa mga bandang huli. Isang
    buhok na lang. But I still have to blame you cos you allowed people
    like the next one I’m gonna broach pass me. Hell…at pangit ka. Beetch!
  • You cheaply-rebonded-non-conditioning bitch - The moment I
    got wind that you made it instead of me, I said, "What the fukk? Walang
    binatbat yang impaktang yan! Bigla bigla na lang makakasali?" Turns out
    I was right. You simply cannot be considered good. Recently I found
    about your own incomptencies; apparently you’re simply inept. Pasalamat
    ka na lang sa mga kabatak mo dahil may sarili rin silang agenda. Pamato
    ka lang. Just a pathetic little pawn. You will never garner my respect
    whatever you do.

Basically, sa kanila lang ako inis na inis.
They made my life here very uinbearable to the point that…eto nga. I
resigned. Others are already not worth mentioning. They didn’t do
anything directly to me but they did damage to my friends so punyeta
rin sila.

Well,
so there you go. My two years in CVG contained in one long post. Thanks
for everything. That’s all I can say. I know I’ll probably making a
life-changing decision but I will never know until I stumble from it.
My whole tenure has been very smooth at first and bumpy and piercing at
the end. I’ve suffered more stabs at my character from this job alone
compared to my whole high school life. I know at some point I will be
experiencing pain and self-loathing. But now I know after this, I will
be stronger. There is no doubt that I know I’m capable of and I cannot
allow anyone to impugn whatever I will be doing. What I did right now
has emaciated whatever doubt that was growing. I’m sure things will
turn out for the better pretty soon. It’s unavoidable but I have to go
through this. I may have to prove something to all of them.

Good-bye for now. I will reach the summit soon. See you there!
