Who would study psychology unless they had some issues?! Chapter 841 692: A Minor Incident

Both of them are now very sensitive to any anomaly within the company.

Because these could all potentially affect the subsequent EAP work.

However, now is not the ti to think about these things. Nan Zhubin could only shake his head and take note of this, then called Chonghui to head toward eting Room No. 4 together.

Even before they got close, they could hear the sound of a dispute from inside.

"Agreent from HR is useless. I don't approve!"

...

Upon hearing this sound.

Nan Zhubin and Chonghui exchanged a glance, and without much hesitation, stepped forward to knock on the door.

Knock knock knock——

"Who is it?"

Opening the door, Nan Zhubin saw the scene inside clearly.

Mo Kai and two consultants were in a corner of the eting room, in front of them, at a conference table large enough to accommodate dozens, lay a dozen tablets.

All these tablets were company-owned equipnt, not connected to the internet, installed with questionnaires written by the project team and corresponding processing software.

They were used to collect data.

Mo Kai and his team had set off for this place over half an hour ago. If things were efficient, they would have already completed the first batch of employee tests by now.

However, at present, these tablets were rely laid out, and not even powered on.

"Who are you?" The remaining person in the room, besides Mo Kai and his team, asked as they entered.

This was the voice that they had heard arguing while outside the door.

Nan Zhubin looked up at the man who made the sound. This should be the reason the questionnaire testing hadn't been carried out yet.

Looking at the badge, the other party should be managent from the R&D departnt. He looks around forty years old, dressed in a black suit and neatly tied tie, looking not much like soone from R&D, but rather like soone from the sales departnt who often needs to go out.

But a huge bulbous nose marred that face. Without any special skills, bearing such a countenance while doing business might be a handicap from the start.

Chonghui glanced at the situation inside the eting room, then looked at the other party's badge: "… Manager Xing, is it? It's a pleasure to et you. We are the heads of the EAP project. Your company recently brought our team in to implent an employee assistance program; I'm sure you have heard of it."

No matter what was heard outside, they first played it off as if they hadn't heard upon entering, and nonchalantly introduced themselves first.

Bulbous Nose Manager glanced at the badges on Chonghui and Nan Zhubin's chests. Now that they've entered the company for the project, both of them also wore badges, so formal introductions weren't necessary to identify themselves.

"Director Chong, Supervisor Nan?"

When out and about, one's identity is self-given.

The other party first took a look at Nan Zhubin's face, the large bulbous nose flaring a few tis.

But then Bulbous Nose Manager subconsciously stepped back because Chonghui stepped forward again.

This made his gaze naturally shift upwards, and the large bulbous nose gave a slight pause.

"Director Chong... Hello." Ultimately, Bulbous Nose Manager lowered his volu.

Mo Kai's eyes brightened, and he quickly stepped up to whisper to Chonghui: "Senior Brother, here's the situation..."

...

It's quite interesting, clearly, there was a dispute happening in the eting room just now. But among the EAP trio, it was the youngest with the least work experience, Mo Kai, who was at the forefront, arguing logically with Bulbous Nose Manager.

From Mo Kai's concise summary, Chonghui and Nan Zhubin quickly understood the current situation——

"Now is office hours." Bulbous Nose Manager emphasized.

Bulbous Nose Manager adjusted his attitude, slightly raised his chin to better make eye contact with Chonghui: "Director Chong, you might not understand our departnt's situation, or even our company's situation. Our R&D departnt is the company's top priority!"

"We're also currently developing a new project. Yesterday, the entire departnt worked overti till it was pitch black outside. We're counting every minute and second. Just last night, we worked half the night fixing bugs, and the day after tomorrow afternoon, we have to go live, and pulling people away now to fill out this is truly hindering everyone's work."

His tone wasn't as aggressive as what Nan Zhubin and them heard outside the eting room earlier, but he still wasn't very accommodating.

"I know your project, the company cares about employee... ntal health, right? But if the project isn't done well, my people can't be ntally healthy.

"And speaking frankly, it's your project the company pays for, but the company's legitimate projects must be the priority, right?"

These were the words Mo Kai just heard.

After Mo Kai relayed them to Chonghui, Bulbous Nose Manager repeated them himself.

This made Mo Kai, whose ears and brain suffered a second round of this torture, couldn't help but press his lips together.

The current situation is a challenge faced by the EAP project and most projects related to psychological assistance.

EAP is ant to provide psychological care to mbers within an organization, yet providing psychological care to mbers is never the "priority" of organizational work.

Often, only when other more "important" tasks are satisfied, do psychological issues require attention.

This is the general public's perception.

Bulbous Nose Manager believed he was being very reasonable and also gave Chonghui a suggestion: "I was just discussing with your side's young man if maybe you could move this survey to lunch break? I'd have admin order a few more lunch boxes, and everyone can eat and fill it out at the sa ti, without delaying work."

...

Mo Kai's expression grew even more resentful.

Doing the survey during lunch break, is this really employee care, or is it adding pressure on the employees?
