Speaking Out. (2nd of a 4-part series)
No one is clean. Everyone has their own problems and faults. I really can't stand it when people make shows to make people think that they are doing things. This next topic will be about another business partner in 129. He's actually quite a hot topic these days.
Here are his supposed merits and contributions:
1.) He was responsible for bringing in the computers.
2.) He had the contact for the interior design and the furniture.
3.) He put an accountant to monitor the expenses.
Number 3 proved to be his downfall. That same employee slipped one day after talking to another of our business partners. It turns out that the 1,000,000 peso fee that we paid for the furniture and the interior design was a scam. 500,000 pesos was the actual fee for everything. The interior designer (which was his mom), took the 500,000 pesos as her comission, despite our agreement that she would bill us less than the interior designer that Joebert offered (80,000 comission only). That 500,000 was used for his share in the company. Now what kind of business ethic is that? He literally just scammed the entire company! >.<; And this was the guy who persisted on getting the papers ready and the numbers should be transparent. Yet his family doesn't want to provide us with a breakdown of the expenses in regard to the furniture and the design! Sweet irony.
I find it really funny when he boasts that he was responsible for the furniture and the computers. I remember paying for 50 computers, but up to this day (6 months into operations), only 44 are running. 6 computers have been dead despite the promise of the company of his tito (which supplied the CPUs) to fix them. I won't even bother computing how much money the company lost due to the 6 dead computers. I also remember when the PCs came in, we were delayed for several weeks because he ordered faulty and wrong PC parts, despite the fact he was given a list of what to get.
Will I ever forgive this person? Yes. Will I ever look at him again? I'll try. Will I shake his hand again? God knows.
Before throwing stones people, look at yourselves in the mirror first.
