on the verge of losing
Two days after the elections-- and with the results of the so-called "quickcount"-- we are on the verge of losing our jobs. The only good thing (so i believed) is the fact that we are consistent with our ratings from the survery. I think i have written all about it from the past.
Looking at the list of the top 12, I could hardly believe that the people would vote for Jinggoy. Man, he is charged with Plunder-- an offense that is punishable by death. How could someone even choose him to be a legislator?? I mean -- not that I am questioning his education or his background in public service. I am questioning his sincerity. Where on earth can you find a mother and son both senators?! Only in the Philippines. Where else can you find a person charged with Plunder become a Legislator? Only in the Philippines. I know that his guilt should be proven beyond reasonable doubt -- but the mere fact that there are allegations should be enough warning to the people on what he is capable of doing. We never learn.
I was in the office today (not the HQ) and I was able to spend time with the other group. I don't feel comfortable around them-- suddenly we are all estranged, mainly because they stayed there and I stayed at the HQ. Anyway, I think they do belong together-- they have this attitude and same aura. I simply don't belong with them.
It's going to be the third day of the counting tomorrow and my co-workers and I guess the boss too, is still waiting for that silver lining to come our way.
