Imagine for a moment someone talks down on you, giving you all the blame even when you try to explain yourself it wasn't you. She still tries to press on, on issues like forcing you to admit something you know nothing about.
Most times I feel she wants the worst out of me.This was during my time working in a private dental clinic. When I started, I was assigned a supervisor who would guide me in every work.
When I came in, I had already met three staff members there, so I was assigned one. For each denture work that came in, I had to work under the supervision of my supervisor, giving corrections wherever necessary.
There was this lady, though she wasn't my supervisor, but she acted like one, accusing me of things that I didn't do.
Just as usual, a denture came in, and I began working under the guidance of my supervisor. We were almost done with the work except for the point of trimming the denture; that was when she stepped out.Since my supervisor wasn't around, I had to use the guidance of another. I showed her the work, and she began to correct things that were far from being corrected.
The stage has already passed. If you're accustomed to making dentures, you will agree with me that the last steps are trimming and polishing. She began correcting the position of my teeth. It was supposed to tilt that way.
I just have to take a deep breath, already feeling sad. To add more salt to the issues, she remembered the previous job that had issues when fixing it in the patient.In her own words, “You're the one that did that last job that was so hard to fix in the patient's mouth.” I told her I wasn't the one; instead of letting it slide, she kept persisting I was the one.
I got so tired of explaining myself, and her tone was high-pitched, which got others looking at me somehow. In my thoughts, I was like, I could have waited for my supervisor to come instead of asking her for help. I was so irritated and foaming with anger.
At last when my patient came, the denture was perfectly fitted with no complaint. That was the first time, but after so many months, the behavior kept on happening. The way she corrects is totally humiliating. She will make you feel so little. Instead of going to her for assistance whenever my supervisor isn't around, I would rather wait for my supervisor to come back and correct me with love.Neverless of that, I see a very hardworking and selfless woman in her.
Relentless and fully spirited, she brings up new ideas that make life easier for others, sometimes a new initiative that will benefit others.I admire how hardworking and persistent she is, and whenever she talks about her younger self, how she struggled and how strong she is, I can't help but admire her so much.
