Simpana
Chapter 1
Starting the day with enthusiasm is commonplace for employees who do their work in shopping centers, one of which is Lina who must prepare to leave for work because the store will open in a few hours later.
Lina is an office employee who works in a well-known retail company and she lives life by working hard, dedicated to the team and intelligent in dealing with complex problems.
Lina also occupies the most important position in the company because it has a myriad of experiences that she does not count.
He lived all his heart and some of it he lived with heavy hands.
There is a struggle that he must pay with the results obtained. To reach a point like this, there is pain to be endured and countless struggles.
If you remember his past while sitting in college, he had to face a friend who when asked him constantly to participate in events, workshops, seminars to enrich his resume to get a job.
Like one activity that he did before to fill free time, following an internship program outside the campus and the company is also a well-known company that already has many successful alumni in the field of work.
Unfortunately at one point Lina gave up on being labeled a child of a liar and a traitor for selling or promoting the product at a high price, Lina confessed to her crime.
Getting the profits he keeps on his personal account and cheating is not for the benefit of the company. Until finally it was discovered by other interns and began to be isolated slowly including with his college friends.
Various reasons have been expressed but shrinking the courage of people to establish a relationship with him. The bad news he did spread so quickly. For him, acquiring and establishing relationships with as many people as possible can achieve the standard of happiness that should be in survival but in fact not.
He was agitated and always overshadowed by guilt. Lina felt empty and lonely even though she was surrounded by many people and had an established job. Not having a close emotional connection with others makes him slowly to retreat from the presence of his friends and coworkers. Lina has 3 friends.
They are the ones who can understand his life path and Lina is grateful for it even though the number is not as she wants.
His co-workers at the company, aggravate and slander him if all this time Lina's words can not be tolerated because it disfigures the appearance of the team leader who does not have a good fashion sense to dislike the strict rules of work that has been determined.
It is able to make his team leader so ride apitam without cause even though Lina has used the appropriate speech method and mimic the right face. Lina only found out after being told by another co-worker that she was gossiped like that.
Frankly and explained that he never once vilified the appearance of his team leader but still he was ignored because the majority of his colleagues did not like him and did everything to make him look bad by people others.
There is one moment where the employees want to celebrate the birthday of the team leader and Lina is required to bring a special gift for the Chairman. However, ill-fated at that time Lina was ignored and her coworkers had finished celebrating the birthday of the chairman even though he had contacted his partner so as not to speed up the celebration.
Things like this trigger Lina, changing her target and life path. Should he endure the pain or is this pain keeping him alive ?
Not wanting to fall into such an experience, he tried to find a method to change his life for a moment. There are times in one day he tries to coexist with others and trust himself more.
Lina took the initiative to arrange her holiday schedule to go to one of the villages or places to unwind as she wanted in a short period of time. Between 2-4 days. If a week is not possible, he may have been bought, for what he decided.
He thought for days there were important tasks that were required to be completed. He is willing to overtime until late at night because he does not want to ruin the atmosphere of his break time for a moment.
Compile important files and dates of activities that he lived for the next month and finally set the right time for 3 days to take a break from his activities. The end of the month is a good time as there are days that get red date options.
Lina excitedly walked from her desk to her boss' room for permission, not working for a few days. Arriving with a joyous look but the glance from his superior slightly changed his mood, becoming worse.
Lina was actually lazy to face the boss with an uncomfortable look, plan-like behavior, and, and likes to compare his performance with others even his speech can not be tolerated by mentioning various words of wild animals. What is wrong with wild animals ? used as a swearing material by his superiors.
Lina has made it clear that she has also communicated with staff and other employees about her work, and said most of it was in order.
However, his boss seems to disagree with his decision. Even his bosses have been arguing that this is not the time to take time off and leave work. Using the reason that customers often come at the end of the year makes it start to provoke emotions.
Lina ventured to slightly insinuate her boss, “I'm sorry Mom, but for a year I worked I've never volunteered for leave.”. But still the stance of his superiors and corner him if he style of speech is torturous enough to be heard.
Lina defended herself again, “I only meet you occasionally and you seem to understand me better than myself even you know what I think even though you know from others.”
“You asked someone else, what I did. But all my life working here, you've never asked me. There are other things that I really want to say if there is a gift but if you do not like it, it is better not to be thrown away. Give it to people in need anyway they thank you for what you give.”
His superior asked what the mistake was made, thought Lina looking for a gap in the mistakes of her superior even though it was based on what Lina watched. Throw away the gift after taking a quick look. For him buying cosmetics was his work so far from the results of his part-time work before he got a permanent job at this time.
Lina finally said goodbye to return to her desk while waiting for her boss's decision to agree on a vacation plan. But clearly, his anger paid off a little because he managed to pronounce the fact in front of his boss's face.
