Something to look forward to...

two holiday trips!! One in 3 weeks' time. And another one in 3 months' time.

Give me a holiday anytime... Tha anticipation alone would lift up my spirits and drive away boredom.

.....

What a boring weekend!

And its back to work tomorrow.

Man vs woman

How would you feel if you realised the plane that you are taking is pilot by a lady?

Would you feel insecure?

I do. And i don't know why that's the case. Yes yes, we all heard stories abt how woman are as capable as man and their performance are not worse off... blar blar blar.

But i still secretly hope that the captain would be a man and never mind abt the first or second officers in the plane. They can be women for all we care. But the person overall in charge of the plane must be a Man.

Are you like that?

New pet from Taiwan-

Clarifications- I dont have the mini pig.

It's a belated birthday treat from my ex-colleagues! It was truly belated cos it came one and a half month later. Nevertheless, i am soooo touched and pleasantly surprised that they can still remember. And ask me out specially to give me a treat.

No wonder they kept asking me what i want to eat and i get to choose the dinner place.


Thank you for the wonderful pre-valentine's day gift!



**I did get a chocolate today. But its still not from that someone i would love it to come from//

Something positive at this times

What have i learnt or achieved in my 3 years in the current company?

I can proudly say- communication skills, understanding the scope of my work and the operations of the dept and the company.

3 years ago, when i first joined i had to attend a consultant meeting. At that time, i just kept silent while my manager spoke. There is nothing much i can contribute.

Yesterday i attended another consultant meeting at Raffles Place. Alone this time. The other party includes an ang mo and another lady. I am glad i am able to manage them while fulfiling the agenda of the meeting.

I am happy! Independence in work.

Depressing

Just learnt a news that my friend working in Raffles Place just got retrenched. And her company did not pay her the retrenchment benefits on the account of poor performance. That is so bad! I think it is just an excuse to save the company money.

This whole recession thing has become so real, already affecting people around.

When are we going to see good days again?

Fear

The evils of the global economic recession are creeping up to me slowly....

i am beginning to feel afraid of it...

..fear of low bonus, pay cut, even job loss.
