Once upon a time, there was a Canadian airline company that was facing a strike from its employees. The strike was a result of disagreements over salaries, working hours, and benefits. The situation was tense, and the employees who were on strike set up picket lines outside the airport to protest.
However, a handful of station attendants decided to cross the picket line and continue working. These employees believed that the strike was not benefiting anyone, and they wanted to keep their jobs and provide for their families. The strike eventually ended, and the company was back to normal operations.
To the surprise of many, the handful of station attendants who had crossed the picket line were promoted to management positions. The company recognized their hard work and dedication during the strike, and they felt that these employees would be the right fit for management roles.
However, the promotion of these employees caused a rift between them and their former friends and colleagues. The employees who had remained on strike felt betrayed and resentful towards the employees who had crossed the picket line. They saw their promotion as an act of disloyalty, and they no longer trusted these employees.
The newly promoted managers faced a lot of criticism and resentment from their former friends and colleagues. They were shunned and isolated, and they felt that they were no longer a part of the team. The workplace became hostile, and the managers found it difficult to perform their duties.
Despite the challenges, the managers persevered and continued to do their jobs to the best of their ability. They realized that their promotion was a result of their hard work and dedication, and they were proud of what they had achieved. They also understood that the resentment they faced was a result of the emotions surrounding the strike, and they hoped that in time, their colleagues would come to understand and accept their decisions.
In the end, the company prospered, and the employees were able to move past the strike and work together as a team. The newly promoted managers were able to prove their worth and earn the respect of their colleagues. They had made a difficult choice, but they were proud of their decision and the outcomes that it brought.
