don't take things for granted.
many times, things are taken for granted. assumptions made, trusting that things are right. however, things may turn otherwise.
regret. the only word to describe.
I'm at a lost.
my colleague approached me to cover for a presentation. I agreed. taking her slides, I checked. found one error and edited. it was my mistake for not doing a thorough check as I have assumed that the slides were alright since it was cleared and presented before.
assumptions and trust failed me. real hard. really hard.
there was another error in one of the charts. spotted by ps.
no words to describe how I feel. yes, my mistake for not checking the submission. but should I be the one who bear all the responsibility? I was just a covering officer. the slides were not prepared by me. the slides had been cleared before. the slides had been presented before. no one realised the error.
unlucky. the only word to describe such a moment.
why the error wasn't spotted when the preparer was doing it? why was the error spotted only when I help to present? why am I bearing the responsibility?
I have no idea. seriously.
bad day. bad week. I don't know how to face my bosses. it has definitely left an impression on them. lack of "attention to details".
oh wells, I just hope this doesn't happen to me again. never.
seems like what I was been told before was true - it never pays to be good.
in any case, one lesson learnt. never take things for granted.
'chok dii phuu yiin! (:
