i wrote him

Dear (Big boss),

Please regard this email as a personal correspondence between you and me.

I was a bit shocked when I first saw your email asking for a weekly report and plan. But I took a few moments to realize your need in better knowing what I am involved in since I do not directly deal with you at work on a regular basis. And it is of course not a difficult task to fulfill for both you and (the right hand woman's) benefits, which I am willing to do from now on.

But I would like to express to you that, on the other hand, I find the reason behind this request demaning and undignified. For I have tried my very best to follow the rules and do my work, and working hard even overtime when needs arise, I feel that my ethic and integrity of work, or as a person, is being questioned and scrutinized. I would not have written you this email to express to you such strong sadness if I did not find myself crying over such small matter. I rarely cry but this really hurt my pride and feelings.

I am not sure what you response may be, but since I am your student, I would like to be honest with you.

Please excuse me for being immature or unskilled, I am willing to learn and improve and do the right thing. But at times, I find myself helpless.

Aloha

Hey, you are super! I admire you if you really wrote this letter to your big boss. I totally understand what you feel, of those hard working days, we deserve respect.

Well done!

You're so courageous. I won't have the guts to do this. Sorrie I wasn't able to catch your email soon enough to call you on the phone during that time. It's proven that you have done the right move!

thank you my dear friends for your support...and yes after five-hour of uncontrolled pouring of tears originated from my insulted soul, we have come to better understanding, and i believe that the incident will make the future communication healthier and more respectful. i guess those tears gave me courage to do such magic
