Just don't care ...
Most people I know will agree ... that I don't really care about what people think especially when I feel my convictions are right & when I am not obliged to inform, comply or to make anyone happy beyond my rationale, principles &as some might see ... ego.
Today, my team mate told me that people were looking at me when I was explaining something to her ... and suggested that I was talking too loudly. Benig the usual me ... I just said ... "so what?" ... cause I was not bothered ... but later she mentioned that as a boss, I should set an example.
Well .. there was a point but it was not acceptable because the point was subjective ... I thought I was not wrong to be the way I was. In fact, I got to where I am today by being what I am ... doing what I do best, in the way I do best & since it has worked, I don't see any reason to comply with the whims, fancies & pleasing of others. I just don't suck up to others ... if you don't like me, make a complain & worst of all ... just sack me for all I care.
Anyway, I just joked about the possible notion of me leaving the company some day ... and there was silence. So, someone broke the silence & said ... I cannot imagine you going now ... we are still at a stage where we need you ...
ok, maybe I don't care. But someone goes. Here's my responsibility as senior.
