As a neutral outsider, this is my take - anyway since posted on
the Sgforums, it's open to everyone to read and comment.
I think both actions taken was wrong. Obviously what Ah Guan did
was dumb and who wouldn't be angry. However, I also think Poolman
was wrong to demand his sacking and the way he handled the whole
issue.
First of all Ah Guan is a newbie and young fella, early 30s I
think. He very kancheong and blur, always talk before thinking (or
posting). We have seen this thru his interactions here. Not very
mature. Yet he still so greenhorn, our friend invite into his LV
club and back him up everytime.
PLus he also should known abt his 'sarka' behaviour. Poolman bet
to drive to Punggol for x no of days if WP win, he also follow
suit, like pupil following a master. Plus the CNY goodies thingy,
can see clearly the 'sarkaness'. But perhaps it's quite shiok to be
'angkated', but definitely not when others get it, at your
expense.
This guy so kancheong and blur blur, dont know how to drive
properly, say he not earning much or so little, that's why he do
the Rasa jobs. (I also recommend him 1 job do ferry service for pub
workers, dunno what happened there, whether he do or not). Then he
ask about the job and the payment, our hero open his big mouth and
let loose about possibility of late payment etc, why also only
known to him. So now put yourself in Ah Guan's shoes, what would be
his natural reaction?
Knn, he already struggling, you tell him this kind of news, he
surely more kancheong right? See the boss and controller, he's
likely to ask them to allay his worries. Whether that info was
stated when given to him in confidence or not, I dunno, if never
say so, then you got to blame yourself. If stated so, then of
course it's sad and wrong, but what to do, this is a very common
thing, once you started opening your mouth and giving advise like
giving out parking summons.
Some of us have kena this before, share a secret or private info
to someone, but somehow the other party pecah lobang to the person
you talked about, or he tell person B who then inform that
party.
What would be the normal and proper reaction, fuck the fella for
breaking your confidence and tell dont need to ask for advise
anymore, none will be given, or simply say, I think it's best we
become less of friends, because of the issue of trust.
Can you and demand his expulsion or sacking, if say this
happened in your company? Can you give the boss an ultimatum,
either him or you, for what in reality is not a very big issue?
Can demand he be banned from this forums, yes I read somewhere
that Fireice would be told to ban him if he log on? Whether done or
not, I dunno, but the whole idea is wrong.
He behave immaturely, you also behave immaturely, and the whole
thing started by your stupidity in admitting such a greenhorn,
kancheong maybe 'sarka' fella into your private group.
That gentlemen, is my take on the issue. Maybe got more I dunno,
but based on HH post, this is my observation.
My humble tots on this, since LV is the main contractor to ferry
their staffs home, they should pay the TDs first. Then they bill
Rasa or whoever. I am sure they have a service agreement
right??
Why make the TDs ferry the staff and wait for the payment???
This one abit dunno what to say...
