Nganga

Isusulat ko sana ang Ang Dyosa, pero pakiramdam ko hindi pa kumpleto. May hinihintay pa ako sa simoy ng hangin; hindi ko alam kung bagyo ba o katahimikan ang bubulong ng mga susunod na talata. Para sa mga nag-iisip kung ano ba ang laman ng liham, isusulat ko ang ebolusyon ng putang-inang liham na yan.

Hayaan nyo munang libangin ko kayo habang nililibang din ako ng Dyosa at ng Impakta. Hayaan nyong habang walang gumagalaw sa gilid ng bangin, nguyain ko na rin muna ang sitwasyon. Ika nga, pumalibot tayo sa apoy at magnganga.

Dear ****,

This is to formally file an incident report.

I am referring to an event that transpired during the _________ in September 10, 2008 at the _________ Hotel where I was tasked as a support staff to the activity.

During the said event, I was managing the line up of candidates in the main entrance of the function room. Ms. XXXXX XXXXXwas giving me instructions regarding the plaques that were arriving late. In a moment of confusion and high tension, Ms. XXXXX held my jaws by her two hands to clarify her point. This was apparently witnessed by some project team members namely _______, __________, __________, and some of the _______ and guests.

While I must have been confused and probably looked stupid, to have misunderstood her instructions and repeatedly ask her questions during the activity, it is my personal opinion that no amount of impatience or anger at any such situation merits a physical contact with me particularly:with regards to my head, during a professional activity, and in the presence of anyone.

I dismissed the act during the event because I believe in the higher importance of the task at hand. I dismissed the event in the succeeding days because I do not intend to raise objective issues that are vital to the organization when emotions are still running high. I dismiss the recollection of that incident even as I write this because I would like to believe that it was nothing more than an isolated case.

However, I would like to put into record that it has happened in this office where we spend everyday and seek to accomplish goals that are much higher than our personal issues. I would like to personally achieve a closure on the said incident by knowing that I have informed you, as my direct supervisor, of my experience so that this will never happen again to anyone else. Further, I would like to stress that I am aware of and I understand the implications of what Ms. XXXXX did to me (whether intentionally or not) and I chose to dismiss it at the time for what I believe was more important.

Know that I do not and will not keep it as a personal grudge, nor will it keep me from performing tasks assigned to me.****

Eto yung pinuring "maganda" at "matured", at binating "Inconsistent- Official Complaint ba ito o Incident Report". Ang focus question para sa ikalawang draft ay: "Pagkatapos ng nangyari, anong gusto mong redress/reprimand?". Kaya ito ang edited version:

Dear ****,

This is to formally lodge a complaint against Ms. XXXXX XXXXX in relation to her actions towards me during the ____________ in September 10, 2008 at the ___________ Hotel where I was tasked as a support staff to the activity.

During the said activity, I was managing the line up of candidates in the main entrance of the function room. Ms. XXXXX was giving me instructions regarding the plaques that were arriving late. In a moment of confusion and high tension, Ms. XXXXX held my jaws by her two hands and shook them to clarify her point. This was apparently witnessed by some project team members namely _______, _______, _______, and some of the _________ and guests.

While I must have been confused and probably looked stupid, to have misunderstood her instructions and repeatedly ask her questions during the activity, it is my personal opinion that no amount of impatience or anger at any such situation merits a physical contact with me particularly: with regards to my head, during a professional activity, and in the presence of anyone.

I dismissed the act during the event because I believe in the higher importance of the task at hand. I dismissed the event in the succeeding days because I do not intend to raise objective issues that are vital to the organization when emotions are still running high. I dismiss the recollection of that incident even as I write this because I would like to believe that it was nothing more than an isolated case.

However, I would like to put into record that it has happened in this office where we spend about eight hours everyday and seek to accomplish goals that are much higher than our personal issues. I would like to personally achieve a closure on the said incident by knowing that I have informed you, as my direct supervisor, of my experience so that this will never happen again to anyone else. I would like to stress that I am aware of and I understand the implications of what Ms. XXXXX did to me (whether intentionally or not) and I chose to dismiss it at the time for what I believe was more important.

Further, I would like to assert my right as a worker and as a human being. I will require an apology letter from Ms. XXXXX, addressed not only to me but to those who witnessed the event with the Project Managers copy furnished (namely you and Mr. ******* ****). The apology letter will serve as her admission of guilt for the social misbehavior that she has committed, and it will explicitly state her promise to never commit the same act and instead conduct herself accordingly as a professional and as human being in the future. From the management, I expect a formally documented warning regarding this incident.

Despite these, know that I do not and will not keep a personal grudge, nor will it keep me from performing tasks assigned to me.

Sincerely,****

Eto naman ang sinitang "demanding" at "prescriptive":

That being said, I propose that the management address this incident by acting according to the company policies not only because her behavior was offensive to myself but also because it presented a negative image of this company’s work ethic. I believe that Ms. XXXXX should issue an apology letter that recognizes the error of her action and commits to not commit such action in the future.

Despite these, know that I do not and will not keep a personal grudge, nor will it keep me from performing tasks assigned to me.

Sincerely,****

Ang credits nyan ay para kay Kiel. Salamat sa 'yo, btw. Haay, the pleasure of having a friend that is only a few fingers away....

Kung sarili kong pananaw ang basehan, tama na yung unang draft. Dun pa lang, kung may matinong pag-iisip ang Dyosa, dapat inaksyunan na kasi nasa kanya na ang bola. Gayunpaman, aaminin kong masarap din naman ang pakiramdam ng ikalawang draft. Dun ko naramdaman yung release ng galit na nararamdaman ko pala (at oo, matagal na 'kong hindi nagsusulat ng ganitong palaban!). Yung ikatlong porma nya? Yun kawalan na ng gana yun. Sa madaling sabi: "Bahala kayo, binaboy nyo ako at gusto kong lumuhod kayo", at kung hindi... "Talagang baboy kayo!"
