bitchy witchy bitch

something happened to me at work. dont think it has happened to any one of you..

here goes...

the new financial controller (mid-thirties, around my age) saw one of my staff (whom she disliked, for whatever reason) skyping her temp boy, and my staff (let's call her "A") defamed her. cos earlier FC made one of her girls (let's call her "J") cry.

FC printed out the skype history, which consisted of 2 pages, and shot straight to HR room.

of course i was called into my boss's room, with FC and HR director, and the 2 pages of skype history.

women are the pettiest creatures on earth! in that 2 pages of skype, mostly harmless chatting, consisted of one liner, A saying FC was a bitchy witchy bitch.

thanks to A, i was lectured for not taking my staff into hand and blah blah blah... of course i had to say she was very irresponsible and unprofessional, blah blah blah...

i looked back and wondered what i would have done - prob nothing, cos when there's instant messaging, there will be gossip...

ps FC is really a double-headed snake, as confirmed later by J. J has tendered her resignation...

This may come as a rather sexist remark but it is my general observation. I am so going to get shot down for this remark.

Women are usually ngiao, a female bean counter is doubly ngiao. But the worst is a male bean counter who thinks like a woman. He is triple ngiao.

no lah, kxbc, you wont get shot down. i fully agree with you. when i reported to my boss (to warn him in case hr director shoot to him), his 1st reaction is, what's wrong with you women.. haha..

whats a bean counter?

kxbc, i agree with u totally. the FCs that i have known are invariably such ppl. and, another observation i have is that, women in high positions, a lot of them (not all) seem to hv family problems. or whatever. i have worked under many female bosses and i only found one who was nice. the rest were... megabitches.
