I
thought the budget stress session ended last Friday. Unfortunately, it
continues this week. At first, the best assistant asked me to read her write up
for work plan and budget. It is actually business plan; I do not understand why
they called it “work plan”. The second CFO has given his brilliant comment on
the paper. I start to read the paper after lunch and eventually found out that
the paper was actually a copied paste version from last year budget. No wonder
it seems familiar to me. Then I received a call from the best assistant asking
me to re-write the paper and submit to her before end of the day. Well, it took
me a while to start somewhere as most of the paper need to be re-write. So I
start reading the last year version and compared it with my budget working and
start the write up. I managed to complete the report by 6.00 and realised I am
the last who leave the office. There is something wondering in my mind. Last
Friday, the best assistant claimed that she will do the budget report with her
own format, but judging from today’s it seems she do nothing except than copied
paste version. Why is it so? Is she really busy until do not have time to do
the report? After all, we have prepared something for her last Friday, so the
best assistant was actually having sufficient information to do the write up.
In other circumstances, the best assistant does not seems very busy that she do
not have time to do the report as I saw that she have time to update the King
on the progress which herself does not reflected. Again, who will claim the
credit? You know the answer.
I
did the cash flow projection today in relation for her to decide on the
placement of fixed deposit. However, it seems that she ignored the information
and I believe she would ask the same in next few days. Somehow, I wonder,
whether she realised or not, that taking the role of CFO is not just for the
sake of being a signatory, but it more than that. If all those thinking part is
done by the most junior subordinate, then it is the question whether she is
actually in capability of taking the role? If the work that supposed to be done
by CFO is now prepared by the junior subordinate, what is the role and
responsibility of the CFO? How would the best assistant accountable for the
liability that she took? The most important thing, how would she justify for
the salaries and perks that she has taken and the injustice that she have done
to me? Would she able to justify that in front of The Merciful? Subhanallah..
