I
have just about had it with ....................'s attitude at the office.
Today
out of respect of everyone I choose to write down how I feel because if I
addressed her it was going to escalate to a screaming match, and aint nobody
got time for that.
Someone
please tell this woman she is getting paid to do absolutely nothing here before
I do. The whole month she does nothing. We had an estate which we
distributed last month, she got paid from that money.
Today
I call the front desk where she is supposed to be, she is on her private line
in another office. To show my seriousness, I do not hang up and call to
her to answer. She tells me straight: NO I WILL NOT!!! At the time I urgently
need the file to draft an affidavit the client needs to sign to
acknowledge that he got his inheritance, so that Ms Shabangu can be released as
Executor. From that affidavit alone we are able to fulfil our obligations with
2 important stake holders; THE MASTER OF THE HIGH COURT and the AIIF because
our director was issued a bond of security ne.
I
will cc everyone in this e-mail because I decided to reduce the incident into
writing. If I only send it to either of you, it amounts to gossip, which I
detest. The reason I need that file is because our job is incomplete. We have
not been discharged as agents, which means we have not fully complied with the
ACT. We are not those attorneys who are just all about the cheque but do not
see processes through until we see the final product. Is it wrong then to task
a beneficiary of our hard work to do a stitch literally, a stich
to help us complete our job? I say stitch because LITERALLY that is all she
asked to do, we sew all the other stitches, make holes and put in the damn
buttons, hell the belts too if we have to. All she is asked to do is one
bloody stich!!!! A SINGLE TAP ON THE MACHINE and she cannot even do
that???!!!!!!!!!
Speaking
of JOB, what is .....................'s job????? She does not even assist with making
copies or putting paper in the printer but she gets paid every month end
without fail. At whose expense? We all have our flaws we are not perfect but
everyone keeps talking about the same person behind her back. Something must be
done people. In the office people cannot even ask her to make them copies, God
forbid you ask her to open the door when she is eating or sleeping. Guys this
is mediocrity and if you keep wondering why you are circling the drain, you
have PART of your answer.
The
fact that I have to wait for ..................'s to look for the file grates my tits!
The only person in the office who is allowed to give ..............'s orders according
to her is ...............'s no one else and that is horrible. We do the work here,
not her. We work the files here, we go to court here, not her. We bust our
butts to make sure we get paid each month end each and every single one of us,
NOT HER. This is wrong, I propose a Staff meeting on the 29th of
August at 12:00. We cannot continue like this, I am not saying she must get
fired, something has to be done, it would feel better if the phone was
unattended because she is in a queue at the Master’s office honestly.
..............'s this is your office, your name is written in bold outside and on your letter head. Do something she is frustrating processes.
