Justice: As Defined by Man of Principles

Boss,

I'm writing this letter to tell you how I feel about your attitudes lately.

That you don't take the initiative to recommend me for a promotion is something that, although I don't understand, could live with. But that you refuse to pass my application for an announced competition and block me from having an equal opportunity with my peers is something that I cannot understand or respect.

When you decide to have a weekly meeting, and suggest that some of those meetings could be utilized for educational activities, I think you'll appreciate it when your staff respond with suggestions. But when I offer to speak about a tool that people in our field cannot live without, that none of my colleaues have any knowledge about, and you say it is not a departmental activity, and it's irrelevant to our work, this is something I cannot understand. Especially that you yourself keep giving lectures in a field that you're not a specialist in, the department has nothing to do with, and the organization we work for has a standing department for. Was the secretary's presentation about how to process leaves applications relevant to our department, could I ask? Not only irrelevant, but the organization gave a tutorial about it already.

Oh yeah, and when I designed an electronic sorting tool for my colleagues to use in their projects, you rejected it before seeing what it is about. They're dying to use it for your knowledge.

I don't know, but I don't think your attitudes have anything to do with justice, Man of Principles. And that's not all, but I feel disgusted already remembering your doublestandards and unfairness. I might come back when I regain my strength.

No regards,

A staff member!
