I recently found myself in a situation where I had to make the decision to do the wrong thing and move up in the food chain we have at what everyone calls work. It has been such a long time since my values have been put to the test.
I have been trying to move up for about 6 months now, but the more I was moving up; the more I met people that I didn't like very much. I am very outgoing (sometimes too outgoing) and very honest (brutally) and won't kiss anyone's you know what to get where I wanna be, you know? Well that's where I lacked. I all of a sudden had competition with a 19 year old girl who has been with the company under a year! I had to work with the person who was dead on making me sick for 2 weeks! She spoke to other employees behind my back ( again she's 19 ) and refused to team with me.
Everyone said it was jealously. Ugh. That's said when people don't wanna hurt your darn feelings . Whomp whomp whomp... She had something I didn't though ... The ability to brownnose herself to the "favorites" list. I mean I could've done the same thing but I shouldn't have too! I firmly believe that moving up should still mean being good at what you do!
So I didn't get the job... She did. I was upset, but man I still feel good about me. I have always told my coworkers if I move up and get a stick up my you know what; run catch me and yank it out! Yea they love me that much.
