WORKING

working for the past 6 days makes me appreciate school life more, not exactly the school but the company and the tiny little bits here and there. school is the second most forgiving place on earth. usually you are given a second chance or a warning before immediate action is carried out. unfortunately it does not happen in the working world. when you fail to meet the quota set by the boss, you just have to face the music. sorry is never sufficient. you have to promise to make things work and keep true to them. you ought to work ur butt off to meet the deadlines set by your boss. i was shocked when i asked my team leader told me my working place does not have a closing time. there were some cases when perm staff actually worked till the early morning, go home to bathe and went back to work at 6am. that's pure maddness! dont they have to rest? overtime seems to be a must do thing for all the perm staff at my working place. if you fail to do that, prepare ear plungs or a box.

some think that school is the most horrible place to be in because of all the bitchings and backstabbing going on. you have not seen the real world yet. when things go wrong, nobody will step out and admit their mistakes. they will just try their very best to push all the blame to the others in the project. even if they have to bear the responsibility for the failure, they wont go down alone. they will drag someone down to accompany them to enjoy the mess they have created. although everyone is working for the same company, i can clearly see a clear difference between the departments. different departments are treated differently. i dont know why. it could be based on the amount of revenue the department brings in or its efficiency. what a destroyed place i am in now.

i miss the company, the good old friends and funny and boring tutors. i miss the cheap and delicious canteen food. i miss rushing to all the breaks because i am constantly feeling hungry. i miss all the PEs lessons. i want to go back to the good old days when i was still a student.

i find myself quite a hard to be satisfied person. when i was schooling, i remembered i was complaining about the tons of work to do everyday, the boring lectures and irritating exams. i wish i can start my working life soon. and now, here i am, working for the next few months before i go back to my student life. i got my wish granted but i am still grumbling. what on earth do i actually want? am i that not easy to be contented with what i have now? stop complaing can i! start to appreciate the tiny bits in my life before they are gone.
