Be\u015f alt\u0131 ay sonra bir sistem entegrat\u00f6r\u00fcnde saha m\u00fchendisi olarak i\u015fe girdim. Bu, iyi t\u00fcrden bir kaostu.

Hay\u0131r dedim.<\/p>\n

"Biraz d\u00fc\u015f\u00fcneyim." "Rakamlardan konu\u015fal\u0131m." "Hay\u0131r." Kibar, an\u0131nda ve gerek\u00e7eli bir "hay\u0131r."

Onlar bunu olgunlukla kar\u015f\u0131lad\u0131lar. Ben de kendimi i\u00e7ten i\u00e7e iyi hissederek normal hayat\u0131ma geri d\u00f6nd\u00fcm; bu da evrenin bir \u015fey y\u00fckledi\u011finin ilk i\u015faretidir her zaman.<\/p>\n

\u0130ki ya da \u00fc\u00e7 ay sonra, o m\u00fc\u015fteri ve i\u015fverenim aras\u0131nda anla\u015fmazl\u0131k \u00e7\u0131kt\u0131.

M\u00fc\u015fteri, beni de\u011fil, kendi b\u00fcnyesinden bir sistem m\u00fchendisi i\u015fe ald\u0131.<\/p>\n

Ve t\u00fcm bu ayr\u0131l\u0131k s\u00fcrecinin ortas\u0131nda bir yerlerde, teklifin haberi \u015firketimin sahiplerine ula\u015ft\u0131.<\/p>\n

Toplant\u0131<\/h2>\n

Beni i\u00e7eri \u00e7a\u011f\u0131rd\u0131lar. Ses tonlar\u0131 hi\u00e7 de dostane de\u011fildi.<\/p>\n

\u201cM\u00fc\u015fterimizden bir teklif ald\u0131n\u0131z. Neden bize s\u00f6ylemediniz?\u201d<\/p>\n

Ve i\u015fte tam bu noktada, birinci perdedeki dersim odaya girdi, oturdu ve kendinden emin bir \u015fekilde hayat\u0131m\u0131 mahvetti.<\/p>\n

Dedim ki: "Teklif bana geldi. Reddetmek benim hakk\u0131md\u0131 ve reddettim. Bunu neden bildirmem gerek ki?"\u201c<\/p>\n

Bunun m\u00fcmk\u00fcn olan en g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc cevap oldu\u011funa ger\u00e7ekten inan\u0131yordum. Kafamda kusursuzdu. Bana bir \u015fey teklif edilmi\u015fti ve reddetmi\u015ftim. onlar\u0131n yarar\u0131na<\/em>. Pazarl\u0131k yapmam\u0131\u015ft\u0131m. Fiyatlar\u0131 s\u0131zd\u0131rmam\u0131\u015ft\u0131m. Ayr\u0131lmam\u0131\u015ft\u0131m. Hikayede tek bir sadakat eylemi vard\u0131 ve onu ger\u00e7ekle\u015ftiren bendim.<\/p>\n

Onlar bamba\u015fka bir film izlediler. Onlar\u0131n versiyonunda, bir \u00e7al\u0131\u015fan bir m\u00fc\u015fteriyle \u00f6zel bir konu\u015fma yapm\u0131\u015f ve m\u00fc\u015fteri daha sonra oradan ayr\u0131lm\u0131\u015ft\u0131 ve bundan hi\u00e7 bahsetmemi\u015fti.<\/p>\n

Ayn\u0131 g\u00fcn i\u015ften kovuldum. Belirtilen sebep \u015fu ve buradaki ustal\u0131\u011f\u0131 takdir etmenizi istiyorum:<\/p>\n

\u201cBiz bir aileyiz ve siz bize ihanet ettiniz.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ayn\u0131 g\u00fcn, aileden kovuldum. Tazminat alamad\u0131m ama bolca duygusal kelime da\u011farc\u0131\u011f\u0131m vard\u0131.<\/p>\n

Benim de masum olmad\u0131\u011f\u0131m\u0131 itiraf etti\u011fim k\u0131s\u0131m<\/h2>\n

Bu konu \u00fczerinde yirmi y\u0131ld\u0131r kafa yoruyorum ve kusursuz bir \u015fehitmi\u015fim gibi davranmayaca\u011f\u0131m. Gen\u00e7 ve politik olarak naiftim ve o zamanlar g\u00f6remedi\u011fim bir ayr\u0131m vard\u0131:<\/p>\n

Bunu belirtmek ak\u0131ll\u0131ca olurdu. Ahlaki olarak zorunlu de\u011fildi.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bunlar birbirinden \u00e7ok farkl\u0131 iki \u015fey ve gen\u00e7 halim bunlar\u0131 tek bir \u015fey olarak alg\u0131lad\u0131. "Sana bunu bor\u00e7lu de\u011filim" ile "sana s\u00f6ylemenin bir faydas\u0131 yok"u birbirine kar\u0131\u015ft\u0131rd\u0131m.\u201c<\/p>\n

Tek bir c\u00fcmle t\u00fcm hikayeyi de\u011fi\u015ftirebilirdi. \u00d6rne\u011fin: "Bu arada, m\u00fc\u015fteri bana onlara kat\u0131lmam\u0131 teklif etti. Ben de hay\u0131r, onlara hizmet ederken uygun olmaz dedim." gibi s\u0131radan bir c\u00fcmle bile yeterli olurdu.\u201c<\/p>\n

On saniye. Koridorda. Kahve molas\u0131 aras\u0131nda. Bu c\u00fcmle, \u015f\u00fcpheli bir sessizli\u011fi m\u00fchendisinizin ne kadar yetenekli oldu\u011funa dair bir hikayeye d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015ft\u00fcr\u00fcyor.

Bunu hen\u00fcz \u00f6\u011frenmemi\u015ftim. Do\u011fru olan\u0131 yapman\u0131n yeterli oldu\u011funu ve do\u011fru olan\u0131n kendini belli edece\u011fini san\u0131yordum.

Beni rahats\u0131z eden \u015fey dil.<\/p>\n

\u201cAile\u201d tek y\u00f6nl\u00fc bir yol gibiydi. Hafta sonu \u00e7al\u0131\u015fmas\u0131na, \u00f6denmemi\u015f fazla mesaiye, bir sunucu ar\u0131zas\u0131 nedeniyle ak\u015fam 8'de \u015fehrin bir ucundan di\u011fer ucuna giden bir saha m\u00fchendisine ihtiya\u00e7 duyduklar\u0131nda \u2013 bu bir aileydi. M\u00fc\u015fteri ili\u015fkilerini kendi pahas\u0131na korumak i\u00e7in bir i\u015f teklifini reddetti\u011fimde \u2013 bu sadece benim i\u015fimdi, s\u0131radan, beklenen bir \u015feydi.<\/p>\n

Ama kendilerini rahats\u0131z hissettikleri anda, "aile" bir silaha d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015ft\u00fc. "Kurallar\u0131 ihlal ettiniz" veya "G\u00fcvenimizi kaybettik" de\u011fil.\u201c \u0130hanet.<\/em> Kendinizi savunamad\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131z, \u00e7\u00fcnk\u00fc birinin duygular\u0131na kar\u015f\u0131 itirazda bulunamad\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131z bir alandan gelen bir kelime.<\/p>\n

\u0130\u015fte p\u00fcf noktas\u0131 bu. Ailecilik, ailenin duygusal y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fcklerini \u00f6d\u00fcn\u00e7 al\u0131yor ve sessizce g\u00fcvenceleri d\u0131\u015far\u0131da b\u0131rak\u0131yor.

\u201cBiz profesyoneliz\u201d ifadesi, \u201cbiz bir aileyiz\u201d ifadesinden daha so\u011fuk geliyor. Ancak ayn\u0131 zamanda \u00e7ok daha d\u00fcr\u00fcst ve pratikte \u00e7ok daha nazik. Profesyonel olmak \u015fu anlama gelir: \u0130\u015fte kapsam, i\u015fte \u00fccret, i\u015fte ihbar s\u00fcresi, i\u015fte size ne bor\u00e7luyum ve sizin bana ne bor\u00e7lusunuz.

Akl\u0131ma s\u00fcrekli gelen ironi \u015fu: T\u00fcm bu hik\u00e2yede ger\u00e7ek sadakat eylemi, benim reddetmemdi.

Bug\u00fcn, ekibimden biri bir m\u00fc\u015fteri taraf\u0131ndan teklif ald\u0131\u011f\u0131nda, bana s\u00f6ylemelerini istiyorum; bunu bana bir itiraf bor\u00e7lu olduklar\u0131 i\u00e7in de\u011fil, koridordan duymaktansa onlardan duymay\u0131 tercih etti\u011fim i\u00e7in.
