Since I started looking for jobs, my motivation took a beating. My vision for
myself and the company was shattered. I took it personally and resented
waking up in the morning because I had to go to work. I started drinking
more after work and I started to gain some weight. Looking back, I am
surprised that I let it affect me that much. I started doing the bare minimum
work to meet deadlines and get the work done. My passion was lost. As
weeks went by, I actually had the audacity to look for jobs at work during my
lunch break. Thats when an opportunity arose in the form of an interview
with another airline. I started feeling old me come back. I prepped for the
interview harder than other interviews Ive been in. My interview was a
success and I was offered a position in the new airlines. It may seem
insignificant but seeing the offer letter actually was the most gratifying event
since I graduated college. I felt I was alive again.
This series of events was a particular trying time of my life. Analyzing it
based on the theories and principles Ive learnt from this class has actually
explained to me how I reacted right and wrong in the many situations I
faced. I see the narcissistic tendency of the manager, the complacent
attitude of my team members and the lack of productivity of the entity as a
result of poorly managed organization with no effort being done to
understand and improve the organizational behavior as a whole. Im glad to
have escaped it.
