Pwede bang mag-isip ng konti?

I was laughing until my stomach muscles hurt. Boss was uberfrustrated with the other department for their blatant refusal to use what brain cells they have in order to comply with her requests. When she was telling me her frustration, I started laughing because she was dead serious when she said, "Pwede bang mag-isip ng konti?". Right away I replied, "Konti lang?", and burst out laughing.

I told her, that's such an interesting facebook status, then she started laughing some more.

Expectations setting, that's always where we get robbed by our belief in humanity. Really, one would think that in the workplace, people are expected to do their jobs accordingly, because there's renumeration involved, and people are complying with some ideal that they signed a contract for, but then again, that's the flaw of humanity. Sometimes, the weakness of being human, of falling short of expectations cause a chain reaction that translates to errors or lower quality output that ultimately leads to failure of completing a job.
