lunch today: deep fried silver fish
the prawn paste wings saved our day!
AMK mrt station
can you imagined the frus!
i accidentally deleted
all my blog for today!
BL***DY H**L !
now i have to start all over again!
ARRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..........
**pull hair**
10.54am my mobile range
6420**** appeared on my screen
my heart went
thud-thud, thud-thud......
took a deep breath : hello?
yes Jack's jovial voice
came from the other end
he asked: have you already found a job?
me: no, not yet
he asked, are you still interested in the
Brand Assurance job?
me: Yes
at this point
i knew i got the job!
but i didnt expect more to come
he is offering me the position
of a Manager and not a Rep post
which i initially was told
he said the Manager post is offered
to me to do me 'justice'
given my experience and maturity
he asked if the salary offered was ok too
YES YES YES i said
no need for me to bargain
he has done
more than 'justice' to me
so next tuesday
i start work
went out after the call
to meet Bao for lunch
at AMK HUB (my first time there)
12.17pm Bao sms me
she passed her final theory test
12.26pm cousin gillian sms me
she passed her driving test!
WOW! TRIPLE HAPPINESS TODAY!
must buy TOTO
HUAT AH!
took a train from cck to amk
the long journey gave me time
to digest Jack's call this morning
the more i think about it
i more i felt the Manager post
is too big a hat for me to wear
at this point of time
(though Indra kept assuring me
i am up to the position
she is always so full of faith in me)
**thanks**
i have been out of touch
with Brand Assurance and
i have not worked
outside my own company
for the last 5 years or so
i will need time
to adjust and tune myself
to fit into a
whole new work environment
i know myself very well
if i know i am not
going to do a good job
i would rather reject
and start low
i will learn through
the process until i am ready
or the company sees
for themself that
i can take on a higher level
for now if feel
the manager position can wait
met Bao and we walked
to the Hub for our
bi-monthly fix
of yaks and gossips
**hahahaha**
told her about my new job worries
she understands me
know that i am
not out to deceive anyone
i just want to be fair
to both parties
so i called Jack back
explained my reasons
for turning down
the good offer
i asked if he can offer me
Brand Assurance Administrator instead
and i gave him
a fair salary expectation
he said he would discuss with Indra
you may say i am stupid
for turning down
such a good opportunity
i will consider myself silly
if i take up the offer
but i will not be happy
i'd rather be happy
with what i am doing
then go for something
that i am not ready
thanks Indra and Jack
for having the faith
and confidence in me
so the wait continues
day FIVE, tomorrow
