I couldnt catch a good wink

tonight.. woke up every now and then, awoken by my dreams.. and its no good dreams.. its not nightmare either.. i just dreamt of the people i see everyday.  After today, i came to realise how 'reality' and 'practical' people are.. I am simply hanging out with 'vultures'.. who do not care about 没工劳都有苦劳, but all they care about is how much more value can you add to them.  They make sure that you are not just executing well, but do you add any more value to them.  If you are just executing.. out you go.  I cannot imagine how many times they must have talked about this issues.  Those people are all good and kind people, they are not difficult to manage, just that they are more reserved, need more push and on the more 'executing' part, instead of pro-active or maybe pro-initiative.  These kind of people exists everywhere.  And its in this type of environment that you will be able to segregate out the goods from the normals and the bads.  How could you expect a team full of only 'A-STAR' players?  I cannot imagine if i am not inside the discussion today, i could jolly well be placed on the table and be asked to be managed out instead.  I cannot imagine that a person who have no big performance issue, will be asked to be managed out just because they think that they do not need that position half year later now when they employed that person half year ago and wanted to change the nature of that position and the incumbant have to be asked to leave.  Where is our job security?  Where is our conscience?  How could anyone still sleep soundly at night?
