-we are running a business here-
i'd still like to believe that people are innately good and would have good intentions when interacting with other people. we all still aim to have the greatest good for the greatest number. however, there are times when our selfish drives become more prominent that it tramples the common good. there are also moments that when understanding and consideration reach its limit and all bonds formed by friendship fades and the "professional" aura surfaces.
i have tried to understand how much people need their job and since i am in a way among the factor that could make them keep theirs, i try by best effort to save them away from the pink slip. however, as i always tell my people "we are running a business here". cold as it may seem, but it is the reality that we face. and despite how much you understand their reasons for not meeting what is expected of them - whatever measure that may be.
speaking for myself, it is easier to be perceived as a friend rather than the uptight, serious boss. but hey, we are running a business here and not something else.
