Greater Power Comes With Greater Responsibility

It is amazing how people could get so intoxicated with power that they forget that power comes with greater responsibility and should be used with caution and dispensed with wisdom.

Is it just proper to act like you own the place just because you are already a regular employee and a supervisor of a certain unit? Is it really necessary to impose certain rules without taking into consideration the effect it would cause to other units, just because it is quite convenient for you but not to others? Can you actually shout or raise your voice to such high decibels that it could actually rattle your window glasses just because your unit’s usual workload is getting to be too much for your own liking? In the first place, when you took on the job, you knew what you were getting into and taking out your frustration to uninvolved people is just a practice in desperation.

Trouble is brewing. Somebody is imposing rules that are causing problems to other divisions and these she has imposed without consultations with them and much more, her new rules are going against what should be done and proper.

It is just unfortunate that this lady started good in imposing changes that were beneficial to everybody, until she got carried away and went overboard. An occurrence that a lot of us sometimes indulge in.

Change is good but we should remember that change is only effective if it is beneficial to the majority of stakeholders. Change is good when done without losing sight of what is right and wrong not when it is done because it is good just for one and only person or unit.

Unfortunately, as people get comfortable with their powers, they develop this God complex that could be detrimental to others. Feeling heady with confidence and overcompliance, they lose sight of what are really their goal and their role in reaching that goal.

Sometimes, we tend to forget that as we go up and improve our position in our place of work as well as our quality of lives, the people we meet in going up could be the very people we will meet in going down when we get into trouble. Life is really a cycle, believe me.
