Extreme Politeness?
Extreme politeness or just plain rudeness?
Yesterday, our leader informed us that our project’s over. So, when I was heading to work this morning, I was (a little bit) looking forward to a new task. When I reached the office, I was rendered speechless when Idel told me that our contract with the company was over. It felt like being told: “Oh, I forgot to tell you that you’re fired.”
It was really embarrassing. I could feel everyone’s eyes on us while we emptied our lockers, shred the documents, and returned our locker keys. I was fuming that it was very difficult to say my thanks. How could they not tell us? Was it because they’re so polite that they went around the bush? Were they so polite that they avoided telling us that they haven’t renewed the contract?
I really love working in that company. It’s near my apartment and the place is really awesome. I think everyone was nice. I’m still a bit upset, but then unpleasant things happen.
Right now, we’re waiting for the next assignment. The good thing about this incident is that this gives me enough time to have my fill of Sakura. No work for the next few days! yipeee!

Speaking of Idel, I haven’t heard from her in a long time…something is happening with her blog feed? I have to check.
Sorry to hear that. There is a labor policy in Japan where you should tell the employee at least a month before her/his contract is over. What they did to you is wrong in all accounts.
