CHUCHU MANAGEMENT

TO MFAUME PASTORY 02ND AUG 2011

THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO YOUR TWO DOCUMENTS SENT TO MY OFFICE, THE FIRST DATED 07TH OF JULY TITLED - DEMAND AND THE OTHER DATED 01ST OF AUG 2011, TITLED - A REPORT

I HAVE GONE THROUGH BOTH DOCUMENTS, AND I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO RESPOND TO YOU PARAGRAPH BY PARAGRAPH, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I NEITHER HAVE THE TIME NOR THE PATIENCE OF DOING THAT, SO I WOULD JUST POINT OUT THE FEW AREAS THAT I THINK YOU SHOULD CONCENTRATE WHILE YOU ARE HERE DURING YOUR PROBATION.

I HOPE YOU REALIZE THAT YOU ARE ON PROBATION FOR THE PERIOD OF 3 MONTHS, AFTER WHICH YOU MAY BE GIVEN A CONTRACT OR NOT DEPENDING IN YOUR PERFORMANCE DURING THAT PERIOD.

WHILE I PERSONALLY HAVE ALWAYS ENCOURAGED ALL THE STAFF TO VOICE THEIR OPINIONS ON VARIOUS SUBJECTS, IN AN EFFORT TO IMPROVE OUR SERVICES, I MUST TELL YOU THAT THERE ARE PLACES WHICH WE DO THAT.

I AM SURE THAT YOU ARE AWARE THAT WE HAVE MEETINGS EVERY MONDAY, WHICH WE CALL POST- MORTEM, WHERE ALL THE EMPLOYEES ARE ENCOURAGED TO GIVE THEIR IDEAS ON ANYTHING THEY FEEL MAY IMPROVE OUR SERVICES TO OUR LISTENERS. UNFORTUNATELY YOU ARE NOT YET A CONTRACTED STAFF, SO YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO ATTEND, SO PLEASE WAIT UNTIL, IF AND WHEN YOU ARE CONFIRMED, THEN YOU MAY VOICE YOUR OPINIONS.

IN THE MEANTIME PLEASE CONCENTRATE ON WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN EMPLOYED TO DO AND THAT IS GATHERING NEWS.

IN YOUR 1ST DOCUMENT YOU HAVE TALKED A LOT ABOUT MANAGEMENT, TELLING US ABOUT DIFFERENT MANAGEMENTS AND THEIR RATINGS, I AM NOT SURE WHETHER YOU HAVE TAKEN MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION COURSES, I DON’T SEEM TO RECALL THEM ON YOUR CV, BUT READING BETWEEN THE LINES, IT SEEMS YOU FEEL THAT WE ARE NOT EFFICIENT AND COMPETENT ENOUGH TO MANAGE AND ADMINISTER THIS OFFICE.

I WILL ADVISE YOU TO LEAVE THAT TO US AS IT IS NO CONCERN OF YOURS. YOU ALSO POINTED OUT THAT THE ONLY ADVERTS THAT WE HAVE ARE THE TELEPHONE COMPANIES ONLY AND NO OTHER, I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO GIVE YOU THAT CHALLENGE IN GETTING US THE OTHERS, BUT I CAN’T DO THAT AS YOU ARE NOT YET A CONFIRMED STAFF, AND I ALSO FEEL THAT YOU HAVE NEITHER THE CAPABILITIES NOR THE EFFICIENCY OF DOING IT.

IN YOUR SECOND DOCUMENT YOU LISTED THE WORK THAT YOU HAVE DONE IN THE ONE MONTH OF YOUR PROBATION. I DON’T KNOW IF YOU HAVE EVER WORKED IN ANY OFFICE BEFORE, BUT IT IS HIGHLY IRREGULAR FOR YOU TO SEND ME A PAPER TELLING ME YOUR PROGRESS.

YOU MUST SURELY KNOW THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHOM I HAVE ASSIGNED TO MONITOR YOU, IN YOUR DAY TO DAY WORK AND REPORT TO ME ON YOUR PROGRESS, THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO SEND ME THEIR ASSESSMENT ON YOUR PROGRESS.
I WILL NOW COME TO THE LAST THOUGH NOT THE LEAST OF YOUR RECOMMENDATION, THAT OF THE NEWS READERS.

THIS IS TANTAMOUNT TO INSUBORDINATION; I AM APPALLED AT YOUR AUDACITY OF TELLING US WHO TO APPOINT THE NEWS READERS. D O YOU REALLY THINK THAT THE ADMINISTRATORS AND THE DIRECTORS DON’T KNOW WHO THEIR BEST PRESENTERS ARE? ARE YOU TRYING TO PLANT SEEDS OF DISHARMONY AMONG THE STAFF?

I SINCERELY HOPE THAT YOU TAKE ALL THAT I HAVE WRITTEN IN A POSITIVE WAY. WHILE I FEEL THAT YOU MAY HAVE SOME POTENTIAL IN THE AREAS OF NEWS GATHERING, AND TO SOME EXTENT PROGRAMME PRESENTATION, I WILL URGE YOU TO STICK TO THOSE AREAS AND STOP TRYING TO TELL THE ADMINISTRATORS AND DIRECTORS HOW TO RUN THIS RADIO STATION.

I WILL NOT GO ON ANY FURTHER THOUGH THERE ARE A LOT MORE, YOU WILL NOTICE THAT I HAVE NOT COPIED THIS LETTER TO ANYBODY. BEFORE I COPY IT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR AND THE OTHER DIRECTOR, I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU THE CHANCE TO EXPLAIN TO ME SO THAT I CAN REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR MOTIVE IN ALL THIS IS.

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO ANSWER ME IN PERSON, AS I DON’T NEED ANY OTHER LENGTHY CORRESPONDENCES WITH YOU.

THANK YOU
