I got an email from our consultant saying that I am under performing.
Saying that I am unconscientious with my work, etc....
What happened is like this:
He wants a flight to be booked i.e. Friday night @ 0020hr.
So you know when you book a flight at this time,
the itinerary will show the date as Saturday, 0200hr.
(Cos it's Friday night, Saturday morning)
When the itinerary was shown to him, he said he wants it on the previous day.
I forwarded the email and have our travel agent do it for him.
So the travel agent was confused & called me to check.
I explained & thought everything was cleared
But it wasn't and the flight was booked one day before the preferred flight.
And the best thing was:
When the e-ticket was issued, that fellow did not check.
And now he is putting all the blame on me.
I was quite disheartened when I saw that email.
I have never worked so hard before.
Trying my best to do everything as I was expected.
I asked myself: am I really as lousy as he made it out?
I sat there and thought long.
And I finally understood that the problem doesn't lies with me.
It lies with him.
when the e-ticket was sent to him, he should have checked.
He didn't do that.
And I think that serves him right!
You don't even bother to check your own flight timing to make sure that you are booked on the correct flight?
Then I think that's what you deserved!
Now he wants my manager to handle his flight for him.
So good for me!
Lesser contact with such people will mean lesser problem for me.
I will not put what had happened on my heart.
He is no one to me, anyway.
I trust myself that I have the ability to handle such situation.
Not all situation will be win-win situation.
So I shouldn't just give up because of such minor setback.
I will learn from mistake and emerge a better person!!Labels: Life, Work
