Someone I know got really ticked off last week over something that seemed small to some people, but obviously not to her. She was so furious that she said, "I've never felt so much hate before; I wanna splash boiling oil and acid on their faces. Seriously! I've thought of killing people who did me wrong many times before and this time, I might just do it!"
I was greatly shocked by her reaction because I had not seen that side of her before. She ain't usually a mean person but I guess she felt tortured emotionally and mentally hence she exploded. She had a dark past (which I won't elaborate) but she had changed a lot since her college days and she later became a respectable writer and gained much respect from people in the industry. Some of her former lecturers (who held high positions in well-known advertising agencies before) had always praised her and they knew she had potential in Advertising and Marketing as she had won awards for her skills and knowledge in Marketing and she was nominated for the Kancil Student Awards for a series of ads that she produced.
So I understood perfectly why she was so ticked off because she had kept all those anger, disappointments and injustice inside her for far too long. She found out that her name was conveniently removed from the credits. So of course she felt hurt and betrayed considering the fact that she had single-handedly packed 5,000 CDs for the company she worked for, did research on hair salons and pitched for those accounts for a makeover collaboration; not to mention that she handled a couple of contests too.
Apparently, some of her former colleagues demanded an explanation from the people who decided to remove her name from the credits. She's grateful for those who fought for her although it was pretty much in vain. Another act of injustice was that she got dissed many times by people who knew nuts about her area of expertise. They had insulted her intelligence numerous times before but she just kept it all inside because she knew she couldn't talk to anybody in the company. The reason? BIASE.

At one time, she was labeled as "unproductive" despite working overtime for the company by doing research and preparing proposals after office hours (at home). So she stood up for herself because she felt misunderstood but she got reprimanded and she was told to "stop being so arrogant."
Let me tell you something; her English ain't perfect but to have her English corrected by someone who didn't even graduate from college (or has a diploma, for that matter) was absurd yet hilarious, especially when that person's English is totally wack. She could not send out any e-mails without being edited by the moron first.
Pardon me for my harshness; I just can't stand stupid people who like to act smart.
A bunch of double-crossers.
I think she's still contemplating about the boiling oil and acid. Gosh, she needs anger management.
