Scandalous

According to popular apprehension, labour unions are a workplace, where workers interests come first. I thought the same. Forget about it. This is just a fairy tale view of the world.

My former flatmate Tigresa works (or better worked) with one - it's called UNiA. Solidarity and handling employees' matters responsibly are not among their brightest qualities. To call it a snake pit would be an insult for snakes.

Word came through that Tigresa was severely mobbed. What did her boss, the asp she was nourishing at her bossom of success, instead of standing by her through thick and thin? He was sleuthing for the hidden truth behind the nasty backstabbing. It looks like Tigresa will have to move ahead to a brighter place.

I dare to say that it was written on the wall (Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin) or what would you say to an organisation (i.e. UNiA) that force their attractive employees to walk in scandalously unattractive and shapeless cloths in public:

Hello Tigresa, I am really sorry about this unspeakable behavior your employer and specially from your boss, who is an idiot. If he was not able to see, what a good worker you are and how much he could profit from your commitment, then dear Tigresa he doesn't deserve you.

About your co-workers and subordinates, who were part of the mobbing, just let me tell you that they simply don't know what ethics are and therefore lucking a lot of humanism, civilization and education, the best thing that can happen to you is to keep away from them and their durty behaviour.

To you I wish you time to put your thoughts and feelings in the right place and you can always have an open heart and ear in my person.

You deserve much more than Unia.

I loved that, writing on the wall bit! :)

Numbered, numbered, weighted, and broken indeed!
