Dear Readers,
Thank you for coming here!
I decided that enough was enough. I did not have the time to keep calling her and listening to her excuses.
So I shot an email to her, asking when the issue can be resolved, ccing her manager and the managing director.
She did not reply my email. No one did.
But the issue got solved the same day.

The take-away for me is to defend what is rightfully ours.
- Know what is rightfully ours: your leave, pay etc etc
- Defend rigorously when these are offended, preferably with proof, i.e. with emails, not calls.
- If not, the other party might see this as something to take advantage of. And the result is wasted time and frustration for us.
- It might be even bad for the other party. For example, if I insisted and she just solved the issue, I would not have shot the email to her manager and the manager director.
Being friendly is good generally; but being firm sometimes could be the best action for both parties.
To us all!
Till next time!
