Loyalty

Loyalty is what everybody wants and ironically it only exists where there is a relationship - love, marriage, friendship, patriotism, and.... employment!

But then the question is, as far as employment is concerned, to whom should loyalty be given? As far as patriotism is concerned, particualrly in a democratic country where it is ruled by a majority party, I believe loyalty is to be given to the country rather than the government. But in a company? Are we supposed to be loyal to the owner of the company?

What about a public listed company?

The owners of the company are NOT God. They're humans. They make mistakes. And worse, they have personal interests. A company consists of employers and employees. The bigger the company, the more employees they have and the lesser employers there will be in terms of ratio.

In a situation where the company is headed by ass****s and they are directing it towards detriments, what shall the employees do? Like a wagon where the employees are the horses and the driver are heading towards a deep cleft, should the horses stop although the driver did not instruct so?

Well, being horses the employees cannot make their own decision. It's just so unfortunate that the horses have idiots as drivers. But what if there are other people out there who wanted to take over the wagon from the idiots? The current idiots intend to kill the horses gradually until there will only be enough horses to feed or no horses left at all to move the wagon. The new driver may not be better, but at least it is proven that the current driver always leave the horses to starve before serving the necessary food. Because of the starvation, the horses have to utilise the food more than what has already been allocated to them. This situation cannot and must not continue.

The new driver may not be better, but they are not necessarily worse. We don't know yet, do we? How do we ever know? I guess we just have to give them a chance to mend the wagon. Only then will we know how good a driver they are.

So horses! Let's start kicking now! Kick the idiots on the wagon until they fall to the ground. Then, whoever wish so, stamp on them until they die miserably! Let's prepare the wagon for the new driver. May be if we clean the wagon properly, thenew driver will be impressed and give us better food when they begin to move the wagon toward new directions!

Good Luck!
