Yes, indeed. Those curt "Yes" or "No" are unpleasant replies.

 

Others that hurt are when you agree to something that they ask for, and they don't even have the courtesy to thank you.

 

Or you've been discussing something, and eventually when it was done, you don't get updated. And all the while you think it couldn't be done. Until you ask.

Butting Ahead, Mindlessly

Butt ahead

Tracking and chasing for the process to progress

Yet with no shrewdness

On what the road blocks were

Offended even to show what happened

Meant to find the road blocks

To learn for smoother journey next time

Butting ahead,  mindlessly

They Ask, But They Don't Update

Problems they bring

Asking for solutions

Advice one dispenses

Things to check

Issue put aside

Waiting for update

Time goes by

One day chancing upon the subject again

Ask then for update

Only then came the update

Without apology on the lateness

More than once

It has happened

Send you the problem

But didn't update when resolved

Such thoroughness

Most times,  we trust the system 

That it'd pay us

That it'd pay on time

That it'd pay correctly

Now it's not human 

But the algorithm!

What can we trust?
