BAD NEWS, GOOD NEWS



Friday is always a good day for anyone who works. Except I guess if you have work on Saturdays. But anyway, my day was getting along well until my co-employee and I decided to file the records of the i-cards. She needed a box, I had a box. The only problem was, there were stuff in it. so the obsessive compulsive in me made me open the box and figure out what to do with the stuff in it.

I wish I never opened the box.

I found a very big pile of visa implementation orders during the 2007s and 2008s, some applications of different foreigners to be filed, and many other things that I must not mention. Bottomline of this is—it wasn’t suppose to be there. I found out that the owner of the box was a previous employee of the Bureau. He was released because he got caught as a FIXER. A fixer is a person who hastens or asks MORE money from an applicant so he could “fix” his papers for them, which, in common logic—ILLEGAL.

It was quite upsetting when I started to unveil the contents of the box. It was also quite unsettling that some of these orders had stationaries from LAW OFFICES, which means these people were part of this illegal wrongdoings—the ones who were suppose to right the wrong.

Im a very optimistic person, I believe the Philippines so much that when I hear clients say that we’re corrupt and that the system sucks, I cringe deep inside. So when I found these items, it was very disappointing. I was very disappointed that I sat on the same table and the same chair as this selfish bastard (sorry for my language). I hated him, but most of all, I hated myself for not cleaning up that box 2 months ago.

And as for the good news….

WALANG GOOD NEWS!
