you. matter.

look, despite what you hope for in working life,
the reality is, sometimes you are not appreciated

on one hand, you are not appreciated probably bcos
you are an idiot. ni tak reti, tu tak reti, cam haram.
on the other hand, you are not appreciated bcos
you care too much and you are too invested

which means, you do things bcos you know its vital,
you do things bcos you know it makes a difference,
and you do things bcos its your responsibility

but every now and then, you find your efforts futile.
bcos people take it for granted that YOU will do it,
and dey'll always assume it'll get done. bcos you care

so in the end, people forget to acknowledge the fact
that if you DON'T do it, it never gets done.
and even if it IS, it'll be a piece of crap.

so, knowing that, you have two choices;
either you accept the fact that it's a fact of worklife,
so you keep on chugging away (begrudgingly)

...or you can do something about it.

how about stopping for one task?
how about stopping for one assignment?
how about stopping for one day?

do something radical. and just stop.
and sit back. see what happens.
and enjoy the chaos that unfolds.

you see, people tend to forget.
so take a stand, do something about it,
and remind people that you are there,
that you are good, that you care

...and that you matter.
