205.Continuation of post 119. Office samosa party for poesy poetry on topic Good things come to those who wait

 Office stories-

"Good things come to those who wait "

We come across ad of before and after

Below poem I had written before joining my team for a ice breaker 

Initial lines reflects my apprehension 

Concluding with how the reality looks with actual attention 

*Jan 2025 *

 Shortly I will be moving to a team new

Today there was a samosa party as a ice breaker to know 

Let me just put a background of my situation very 

Me earlier working under audit , at present in tax and future with advisory 

My future manager had spotted me in tears way back 

When I was having a tough time with audit team pack 

Today when we met he asked in front of all 

That he had seen me crying standing tall 

Immediately everyone focussed on me more

And it was embarrassing to the core

My present manager answered this dent

That it was past ,let's focus on present 

Then the upcoming manager spoke normally with all of us

And everyone started back chatting without a fuss 

Yet back of my mind I wanted to give him befitting reply 

But the next few months to be trained at work, I would on him rely

If I give any negative vibe any 

I can have tough time so many

I had female managers before 

And they were kind and listened more 

Now if I take up any issues more 

I would be fired from job for sure 

So being positive and learning work net

Doing my best and getting permanent

That's my focus

Yes I should not cry in office to avoid any buzz.

*June 2025* 

Good things definitely comes to those who wait 

My thought process on manager earlier seemed a click bait 

He is straight forward yes, agree that at times a bit over and static 

Over a time frame I am learning to be more diplomatic 

Learning work , handling people, having a positive mindset 

Preparing mind to face things with confidence even if at times I feel upset 

The things that I have today is a blessing 

And I don't want to ponder over past on trivial thing

Had I lost my mind and said something nasty that day 

I would have to face consequences and would have nothing to say 

But a moment of patience helped me retain my bread butter 

I learnt to write down a poem to express emotions than chatter putter
