Projects delayed

I criticise a lot, but I get criticised NON-STOP. It's the nature of my ASSIGNMENT. Practically things 'stop' without our service. So yes, the blames are pointed onto me from ALL directions.

Yesterday I got the bomb. I am accountable for ALL delays for ALL projects by my team. I take that accountability. But I must admit, these are stressing me up. I felt HELL yesterday. It's not FUN being question. But I can't point fingers onto my team even if there has been NO teamwork, SLOW effort by them. Cause I am their leader. Their failure is MY failure.

But I did investigate. It all came down to one person. He is a good guy, just extremely slow. I've discovered he can't multi-task. Neither is he resourceful. But in our line of business, these are ESSENTIAL assets. He just don't have them.

How do I get through him. He doesn't seem to recognise he's delaying his team mates. Neither seem bothered about that. I requested new timeline and proposal for a particular 'delay' project yesterday, he came up with new excuses. I don't understand why some people lack responsibility. Maybe it's true 'alah bisa tegal biasa.' But what am I gonna do about him? If I was Donalp Trump, I'd say "You're FIRED." But I'm not. Neither should I, he's got a family.

***sigh***

Tomorrow there'll be more questions, and next wednesday I'll be hearing more too. I'm holding my breath thinking of these.
