Inevitable work

I haven't check in since february, so I reckon I haven't input how work is. Its my 3rd week of work and I am begining to question myself. I started this work knowing that I don't ever want to do events and guess what, this job confirms my stand. I also started this work knowing that I don't wanna work in a small firm and this job again confirms my stand. Pico itself is quite a big company but I am working in this department that I know even if I work for the next 5 years I will not surpass my bosses. Partly also I see my dear colleague Mayching working til death and her renummeration stays the same and hardly anyone notice or appreciates. But 1 good thing came out of this job, at least I know what I don't want to do. I have been doing a lot of thinking lately and realise that I think I want to try doing more customer service stuff. Deals more with end-consumer. I don't know lah. I am confuse. I HATE GROWING UP!

Also, I feel a bit bad because I went from having 100% time for blacks to now we only meet each other to go home and ZzzZzz. He's been so busy lately and I haven't been able to give him the time and support I used to plus he is going through this transition because he might be posting out soon.

.................humans need to work to have $$ but with $$ you have to sacrifice............how can we find a balance?

Oh I haven't really said what I am working. I am handling this 1 account at an events company. An overseas exhibition for a telecommunications company in May. I am almost been thrown into the open sea, not knowing how to swim properly and survive on my own. My boss is pretty alright but I am a little intimidated to ask him too much cos I don't want him to think that he hired me for nothing if I ask too much, but I also not sure what's to be done because everything is still so ambiguious.

HOW??????? I WANNA QUIT BUT I FEEL THAT I WILL LET DEBBY DOWN.... Hang in there E-Ying. It can only get better.

Dont be discouraged, dont quit and dont be afraid to ask. Its all an experience. In the end you will see the bigger picture and understand where u fit in it. As for the balance btw work and money, its a crazy world, I dont know the answer to that n I am not sure that there is an anwer, but you know what, I think we each have to draw the line ourselves. Therefore dont be like me - 7pm now and I am still at work !! Love.... :) miss u too Dajie

hey babe, we gotta try to not hate growing up as it doesnt stop till we hit the bucket. it will take awhile of getting used to, no doubt as time is no longer a luxury. if u are worried about blacks, have a good talk with him. i am sure he appreciates and know that u are more than concerned for him.

about money and balance, there is no TYS to refer to. i guess we will react accordingly to the environment. some phases in life we wanna enjoy, some phases we have to work our arse off coz we wanna buy house, some phases we work and go for holidays. at the end of the day, the money bit is the same.. just how fast/slow we wanna hit that amount.

yes, it will only get better. may we age like wine. huggz. c";)
