An oversight of mine 3 months ago caught up now. I messed up big at work.
The only mitigation is that the relevant contract annexes I drew up was done properly and when reviewed by the other party, no issues were brought up.
Not a good thing, but I'm actually glad it surfaced now 'cos it can then finally be dealt with properly, involving my bosses. Been trying to work with vendor for weeks now to find an alternative solution that is compliant with my company's strict, very strict (translated kiasu, kiasi, ai-chee, ai-pi), technical standards, but to no avail.
My supe has not been watching this too closely because he's swamped with his own work, not because he chose to trust me as he claimed. He's not too bad a fellow, but can't totally depend on him sometimes - he cracks when the screws are turned on. The only good thing here is that he (should) know he can't scapegoat his subordinate alone, unlike how things are done in some other companies.
hope things get ironed our for you. This hasn't been a good month at all. Next month will be better.
