Yesterday was just really bad. I was beaten by my bosses for something I didn’t even write and for something beyond our control. The main point is because we don’t have any freaking reporter in Singapore! If this—berating me for something that isn’t my fault—didn’t happen, it wouldn’t have occurred to them that we need a reporter in Singapore. They thought we can get by without one. They thought Southeast Asia is uniform. They thought SEAsia is just like Australia with different states or China with different provinces.

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SCREAM OUT LOUD IT IS NOT?!

The analysis piece that we did for three months… My boss wasn’t happy with it. She didn’t get it. She didn’t appreciate it.

I just couldn’t bear it anymore and called up M and cried.

Why do I even bother? Why?
