Tolerance and Kindness
When I was a sales manager, I had a falling out with an employee. I didn't like how patronizing she was and decided to talk to him. To avoid a public argument, I planned to call her at home.
"Should I fire her?" Suddenly, an incident that happened 9 years ago came into my mind.
At the time, I was working a full-time job to support my husband, Mike, through school. Finally, his graduation day is coming. Our parents would be traveling from out of state for his graduation, and I had a lot of plans for the day. For example, after the graduation ceremony, go for ice cream and then go to town for a bit of fun.
I happily ran into the bookstore where I worked. "I'm taking the Saturday after Thanksgiving off," I announced to my boss, "Mike graduated!"
"Sorry, Mary," my boss would say. "The weekend after the holidays is our busiest time and I need you here." I couldn't believe my boss could be so unreasonable. "But Mike and I have been waiting for this day for five years!" I argued, my voice trembling with emotion.
"Of course, I will not arrange work for you during the graduation ceremony," he said.
"I can't come at all, Rose," my face tightened with anger. "I won't come!" I roared and rushed out.
In the days that followed, I ignored him. When he asked me something, I just answered in a few words and indifferently.
Our relationship became increasingly tense. Although Ross still seemed enthusiastic and always greeted us with a smile, I knew he was feeling uncomfortable, and I was determined to take a day off.
We had a cold war like this for several weeks. One day, Ross asked me if I wanted to talk to him alone. So, we went to the reading area and did it. We stared at my feet and told ourselves to be strong and bear it no matter what happened. Apparently, my boss wanted to fire me. He could not allow me to despise him and remain indifferent. After all, he is the boss, and the boss is always right.
When I glanced at him coldly and disdainfully, I was surprised to see the hurt look in his eyes. "I don't want any anger or unhappiness between you and me," he said quietly, "You can take that day off."
I didn't know what to say. My anger, my narrow-mindedness, my childish behavior were so insignificant in the face of his humility. "Thanks, Ross." I finally squeezed out a sentence. I will never forget this.
I took out the employee’s card and dialed her number. and apologized to her. When we hung up the phone, our relationship was as good as ever.
God has a way of burying the things we have learned in life deep within our souls and bringing them to the surface when needed. And she also made me understand that sometimes, being nice to people is more important than standing up for being “right.”
