Herding Effect

Yes. As long as u r new to a company, young pple like us always face the problem of herding effect. I dun understand why senior staff like to behave that way. Come on, they have kids and i am sure they will not want their kids to be treated that way. The old click will stick together, forgetting new pple like us. They might have tot that we are here to challenge their rice bowl. Anyway, i am quite immune to it. Y? Thanks to the internship that i went thru. They really put me to test.

I always remember the time when i got "bullied" by this gang of veteran at one of Singapore's largest accounting firm. I was only 17-18 when i was somehow ill treated. Eversince that trauma, i began to realise reality is harsh. Another new colleague of mine was so disappointed. When i look at her, she felt terrible. I try to comfort her a bit. She agreed that newcomers always face the same problem. It is a vicious cycle. We got no choice but to hang on there. The fortunate thing is we still have a few kind souls who will help us. Besides, both of us can still count on each other. Another new colleague will be coming in soon. I guess he/she will have some hard time too.
