2014-01-01 "Ebata-san. You are a devil" [長年日記]

At the end of the last year, my young colleague caught a cold and broke down under the strain of hard work.

Unfortunately, he had a mission to finish the patent work assigned to him.

I am in charge of the patent management, so I was going to make a perfect line against this emergency situation.

(1)First of all, I confirmed with the system administrator that the company patent assistant system keeps working through New Year's Eve.

(2)Secondly, I asked both the chief and the head of the department for a request for managerial decision during the countdown of New Year's Eve.

(3)If the worst happens, I was going to write for him,

(4)Finally, I mailed him to take a rest with the message "Don't worry. It is O.K. that you could submit the patent statement by the end of the year"

-----

The another young colleague told me that

"Ebata-san. You are a devil"

I felt quite unhappy about the comment.

I was worry about my fellows, and made a perfect line for him as a company organization.

Am I a devil?

"Ebata-san. You misunderstand the direction. The solution is easy. All you have to say it that "you can miss the deadline""

Oh.

It was a blind spot.

Certainly, I had no idea the above.

But business is business.

Above all, I wanted to avoid getting mad with my boss.

The young colleague recovered from his illness, and went to our office.

"Are you O.K.?"

When I was worried about his physical condition, he answered

"It is O.K. I will submit the patent statement by the deadline.

He told me about the work.

-----

I thought "Could be" at that time.
