The Working Life
Joining the working world isn't as easy as study. There are many more things to be considered in this stage, no longer means I wanna ponteng then I can choose to be lazy today, neither those days of movies and shopping and having fun days still applies.I felt that I had not talk to people for ages, I mean I felt like my social life is dead, you know the sims game whereby the person has a bar limit and mine is towards the red. My best friends now are The Star newspaper and magazines. I had lunch alone today, well and fine, I'm still living happily. Well if some wants to disguise me I have nothing to say, because I have done my part and I have nothing to worry. My job everyday is to sit down, smile and look at people. Or photostat. Better than nothing to do. Some are really good to me, esp the senior office lady, kind. Some just give me that black face and practically telling me I should get lost.
Working in high class place such as damansara heights will kill, because almost everyday there'll be people who come and make some noise over small little things. I can say they're worse than a 3years old kid. A nuisance customer came and scold me for nothing because I was sitting at the customer service table. Or some customer just showing me black face because I told them I cannot access the banking system. Sometimes rich people are the worse group of people in the whole society, they just don't know the meaning of humble. Under all circumstances I still have to say sorry to them and smile.
There's much more things to be considered in life, now I know why the adults tell me "Enjoy your college days before you go to work". Not only that but also my own personal life towards this young adulthood. I find that many things when I was "innocent" during those younger days no longer applies now, perceptions and mind has changed a lot. I guess everyone have to go through this phase one day ...
Like before this I do not know where and what I should proceed in my career, setting a goal for myself to achieve, finding a specific industry that I would be successful in the years to come. Now I had decided what I want to do and I'll continue looking and working hard into things I want. Not only about this but I expect the person I'm gonna be with in the future, to be someone who's the same with me, someone who'll work hard towards things, someone who'll have self determination, someone that will handle things well and someone who is mature.
I had been thinking a lot about what I want in life. Somehow these days I just feel pretty empty not having a person to lean on by my side. But it's well and good for me to learn how to be independent.
I've thought that we had really went through many things in life, wondering why some times I've done so much but yet the outcome of somethings might not go the way you want. In a simple way without twisting and turn , I would just say I'm really feeling tons of stress weighing on my shoulders being with someone whereby the family does not support. Ever since that incident happened, I felt like things had changed a lot, because b.aunty had revealed to me in her attitude that how everyone there is thinking about me. And string that is broken, cannot be joint as one anymore. I even wonder I should continue, if I am feeling so unhappy with so many things. Having myself to wear mask over every time. But now I really do not want to care about anything anymore, because even I do so last time, the result I got is to be insulted. Well and fine, accept or not for who I am, is not a choice for you.
I will prove to people that business student is the smartest people you have in market, or else where do you think the country get the profit from without having business minded people? if I ever hear anyone say business student is useless, I'll make you regret on what you said in 5years time. Just like what I said, when people are rich, they tend to have attitude to look down on others.
My lecturer, the one who had known me well for 4years plus until today, she knows well about me as she is the one who marked my assignments, she knows my work and my personality from top to bottom. She said something that had even made the determination for my career stronger. She said "Why are you doing something that does not suit you at all, you do not need to put yourself in such situation..." . She told me I have the potential in other field especially the FMCG industry, product and brand management. She say I'll be successful there, she know that I'm a person who's able to lead in future, also hardworking when I really want something in my life.
Everything she mentioned to me was exactly what I was thinking for the past week. These situation had even made me gain confirmation on the area I should proceed. I had gained a lesson that money is not everything but the passion for work also comes in whereby the things you do in work plays an important role as well. If the company ever review those marketing plan I've done during my college days. Or at least they would take me in.
My dear friends, young graduates, you all may seem to see that money is everything now, but no because you can slowly move on during the years and eventually the income will increase. Starting high does not mean that things will be good, so does starting low does not mean things will be bad because in the years to come, for those who's willing to work hard, your income will be triple. Patient is the key to everything.
Finally a weekend for me. adv_username = "suzannetan"; adv_gid = "suzannetan_default"; adtype = "180x150";
