Watch out your pedestal is frozen, you're stuck up there in superior isolation.lol.
Before you Start your negativity ask yourself, have i ever stuffed up, lost my rag, made an error that i have been given a 2nd chance on to redeem myself? No ? Then you must be one of the Gods or an extreme narcissist.
Statement from Meka Whaitiri
Get real. This is a 53 year old person, likely promoted to highest level of incompetence. All those rough edges should have been well and truly worn off by now. All those life learnings she should be able to draw on.
At this point in her life her basic personality traits (both strengths and weaknesses) are deeply embeded and cannot be changed.
We arent talking about some iffy teenage behaviour here - we are talking about a member of Cabinet. We should expect the highest standards from day one. Cabinet is not a kindy for moulding people - at best thats what the back benches are for.
Shes missing teh 4 (?) "a";s
Firstly no Acknowledgement that she handled a staff member and abused her.
No Acceptance that this was wrong.
No apology to the staff member
and No Atonement
She would have been better to stay silent.
(And yes I am always stuffing up. But following the four A's is helpful in personal growth.)
Cant apologise yet if contesting some of the allegations. But yes i hope some sort of agreement and admission and clarity to the part she did play which is losing control of herself with anger( not acceptable even if an employee stuffs up) which causes overreactions rather then informed responses. Eating a little humble pie can bring personal growth."Commited to my own development " and improving herself etc is some atonement and acknowledgement.
“I have accepted the Prime Minister’s decision and I intend to work hard to regain her confidence.
“As noted I contested some of the allegations.
“However I am disappointed my behaviour led to a complaint. I am committed to my own development, including better managing employment relationships.
“I am focusing on working hard for the people of Ikaroa-Rāwhiti, as a member of Labour and Māori Caucus and contributing as a Member of Parliament."
Bull****ter alert blaring full noise.
Shes not disappointed in her behaviour - which she should be.
She is disappointed it led to a complaint. Which is essentially pushing it back to it being the victims problem. (so in her mind if there was no complaint her behaviour was quite acceptable)
What a nasty piece of work. She and Jackson are in good company.
All the rest is the usual crap s about wanting to get her snout back into the trough.
Thats your interpretation.She has committed to better managing employment relationships, good enough for me.
