WHAT HAPPENED?

(EEWWWW!! The nerve of this ugly shit head!)

I find it so fucking hilarious! In the midst of our conflict he still have the guts to rip off someone! This old ugly mother fucker is actually scamming someone again and this time, it's for 2M. It's a good thing that it's not only ME who wants to stop Rain Barnido. It's a group effort, he has hurt a lot of people from the office and his friends.

They were able to advice the person that Rain is trying to scam not to send him any amount since he owes his previous work money and he hasn't return the company issued cellphones yet. Good thing that we were able to stop this time and I am so happy about it! Sorry Rain, it was a big mistake asking money from Tita T and we we're able to read the signed letter you send to her, the request for 2M. Sad to say, No money for you last week.


MY STORY:

So this is how I came to know Rain Barnido. He emailed me before and then offered me a job to work for an advertising agency. I started working Jan of this year and things were great! Rumors were spreading that Rain and I were fucking but I just brushed it off since A) It was rediculous and B) I think no one in the office would actually believe it 'cause hello?!?! have you seen Rain?!?!-Anyway, eventually it died down and then later on I found out that the rumor started from Rain himself.

Moving forward, One day at work I Rain came up to me and told me that he wants to give me another job and that we should talk after working hours. We met at MY friends place and offered me a job paying a little more than what I am getting plus I get to work from home. He asked me to resign and to use my HIV as an excuse-I was stupid! I trusted a fucking sociopath!

Anyway, the first month to me new work, it was ok. He pays me small amount and not on the exact day but at least he was paying me. I NEVER DEMENDED NOR DID I MADE AN ISSUE OUT OF IT. He gave me another job which was very sensitive and we agreed that he will pay the laptop that I was using. I did the job and when I asked him about the laptop he said that he has taken cared of it so I didn't worry about it. He was afterall-my friend.

Second month on the Job, Rain was delayed for more 2 weeks and I started to get worried. One time he asked me to go to Gateway mall to meet him; I got there 6pm and when I met him he gave 2k and told me that he has to run on another meeting and to wait for him there so he can give me the rest. I waited until 11pm and when he I saw him he gave me 500 pesos. He said "Sorry yan na lang pera ko eh, di ka pa naman mamamatay di ba?" He joked.

He wasted my time for 2,500 pesos. He owes me 15,000 pesos at that time. 3 weeks of delay and he was already ignoring my text messages and calls, I finally got the message. I won't be paid. Ofcourse, I felt bad about it but I wasn't mad. I decided not to contact him anymore and just let go. I told my friends JB and K about it. Jb on the other hand started to worry because Rain owes him Php56,000. Rain used his credit card to purchase plane tickets and hotel accomodations in Boracay and also 20,000 as partital payment for a hospital bill.

Then I also found out that Rain owes another one of my previous officemate Php12,000! The 3 of us started talking and I started talking. I know I wasn't going to paid and I have accepted that already but as for JB and my other officemate! He borrowed money from them and with JB, he used his credit card! imaging the interest fees on that!

After a week, I was online one night and the finance manager from my previous work messaged me asking for the payment for the laptop that I got from the office. I was shocked because I thought that it was already taken cared off months ago! I told her that Rain was suppose to pay for it and that I thought I was already cleared from all accountablilities from the office but I was wrong.

I asked her to talk to Rain. She did and the next day she told me that Rain denied that he told me that he was to pay for the laptop. She even quoted Rain saying "Hindi talaga makaintindi yung taong yun". I got mad-I was furious actually! Now he is lying! At that moment I started to investigate on him! The finance manager was also doubting Rain and she opened up that there were funds missing and double cash advances but no liquidation. So we both agreed to digg a little deeper on Rain and she checked with the clients payment status and shocked to realize that there were payments made by our cleints but Rain failed to remit it to the companny.

When Rain found out that I was so mad at him he wanted to meet me to appologize. How could I!? I was so mad because he told so many lies and now that we were doing our investigation we keep finding alot of dubious transactions. I told him to pay everyone first then clear his name. With that he emailed the people from the office explaining his side of the story-but he failed to include me in that email. It's a good thing a kind soul forwarded his email and saw the lies! What I didn't get was, why the hell would he email the people from the office about our issue when I am no longer part of the company?!?!?

This is his email then mt reply to his mail:

Hi Guys,

I am writing because I would also like to share my own side of the story, even if it is pretty obvious that I have hurt E at this point.

Perhaps this is my way of telling you that I am more silly rather than evil, especially when it comes to my stupid desire to be of help.

I have cared for E, and ever since I brought him in I felt responsible for him, especially knowing this life story.

From June to August, he had told me about (which I am sure you know) his panic attacks, his psychiatric sessions and all. I listened to him and I decide (over a weekend) that I will bear this burden, especially when the lesions began to appear.

So, I told him to resign and I will have a part time job for him so that he doesn’t have to report to the office (that causes the series of anxiety and panic attacks). I have an extra income at that time and I set aside an amount for him, also I asked him for a specific work.
I also talked to XXX about letting him work part time. I also talked to him about having his own laptop.

The month of August was okey. Also with the first half of September. I was able to give him the amounts, even if oftentimes they were not on time. I tried to explain to him that it is the disadvantage of working part time and working from home.

Towards the later part of September, for many reasons and some personal tragedy I run out of funds. I couldn’t tell him that I don’t have money anymore. Also, the negotiations with a client broke down.

Anyway, now he is very disappointed and angry at me.

Rightly so, but I am trying my best to reach out to him.

This is my way of asking for help. I don’t want to add to his pain and I want to reach out to him. We may not be able to reconcile the friendship, but at least if I can honor my remaining obligations to him (which I am confident I can); then I won’t be an added burden to his already difficult life.

Thanks.

Rain

First, I don’t know why I wasn’t in the loop with this email, why does Rain feel the need to explain to you and not me?

Now for the REAL story also known as MY story.

During the time when XXXX was firing employees left and right, I was scared of my position. I thought I was next in line. Rain talked to me and he offered to give me a work from home job where I can earn Php15,000.00 monthly, having XXXXX as my employer. I was paranoid that I will be next one to be given the axe. Thinking of the comfort of working from home and working for XXXXX, I said yes in an instant. This was the same month when Rain offered JB a job to head the UN Food program. I remember this conversation because JB, Rain and I were at Nana's house.

Buan and Nana even said “paano yan di ka na namin makikita mashado kasi work from home ka na,” but Rain said “No si XXXX tatakbo sha for XXX dito sa QC so mas mapapadalas din si E dito”. Anyway, I asked Rain when should I resign and he said “right away,” but he also told me NOT TO TELL ANYBODY FROM THE OFFICE about my new “work”. He said, use your lesions as an excuse. Since I trusted Rain (he was after all a friend), I said yes.

It is true that I have anxiety disorder but I already started having those symptoms even before I started working for XXX. I am sorry that I agreed to use my HIV as an excuse to resign but I would like to clarify that I didn’t resign because I’m incapable. When I joined M2comms back in January, I worked twice harder than anybody in the company just to prove to you guys and to myself that despite of my HIV, I can work!

I have handled 3 blogger events where I did the budgeting, program flow and invitations. That includes making all those press kits with almost no help. Did anybody hear me complain about it? No, because I love what I was doing. I have covered several events which was given to me 1 hour before the event proper. It’s because either Rain, JB or K were too busy. I took it no questions asked! I don’t recall saying No to a job that was given to me. I even went to fucking Mindanao (Lanao) and was given only 3 hours to pack my stuff and psych myself because I am absolutely scared of heights. Did any of you hear me complain? No! I live in XXXX, I have to travel 3-4 hours every day just to come to the office, but I never said I wanted to resign because of the distance. IDS and JN even offered their pad but I refused to accept it because I don’t want people seeing me as my disease and not me as a person. I fought my right and my place to be a part of XXXX. I may not be the perfect employee or the best writer in the group but God knows how I pushed myself to at least to be at par.

I’m not buying Rain’s bullshit making me look like a charity case because I am not a handicap! I live in a nice big house in a nice village. I eat 4 times a day. I maybe broke most of the time, but that is because I don’t ask money from my parents anymore. I am not a charity case, nor do I love being patronized!

More than the money that Rain owed me, it’s his robbing me of the chance to have a stable job that I love that really got to me. And how he lied to make me look bad to all of you.

Rain, I don’t understand why you have to explain your side of the story to them and not to ME, true I didn’t want meet up with you last night but you could’ve CC me when you emailed this, afterall this concerns me and not them. If you have to explain something to them, it’s your dubious transactions you made and not your issues with me. Stop stressing our issues to others. Like what I said, your explanations might be considered as soon as you pay M, JB, Ms. A and Me. You told so many lies that prompted us to think that 80% of what comes out of your mouth is bullshit, and the other 20% is still doubtful. I would also like you to know that I’m doing my assignment on You and I’m sure everybody would be surprised to know of the things that I found out. I’m sorry I forgot to tell you that it’s not the blood running through my veins that is lethal, it’s the whole of me that you have to worry about because I am cancer to anyone who fucks with me.

P.S.

Rain, what time will you deposit the first payment on my account tomorrow? This is my Bank details: XXXX
