the notes and ST have drop dead so i'm taking this time to write a little since i have all the time in the world and i need to act busy.
one month into work - i don't like it, i don't hate it either.
i wish i could be less dependent on people but it'll take a while for me to get out of the temp mentality. speaking of which, i really miss those times. thursday OTs are shit, but then, i feel useful. one day without me, the whole dept might go crazy without their reports. at least, i have a sense of purpose then.
a new chapter into adulthood bears heavier responsibilities. relying on others to tell me what to do has to stop. call me crazy, but i wish i can contribute to more than what i am doing right now. anyhow, i'm being paid more, sitting around doing nothing just doesn't seem right. being around big shots at work, i feel insignificant; a small little fry. but they inspire me. i want to love my job.
the colleague (yes i only have ONE fellow colleague and my manager on my team) have been very patient, giving me ample time to slowly pick up and learn. for that, i am very grateful. although the same can't be said for the manager, i am, however, not complaining. the peeps around me have been really nice and friendly. the auntie beside me would always chastise me whenever i have cold drinks in the morning. if i get healthier, the credit definitely goes to her.
monday to friday blues are inevitable but having jo around makes it so so so much bearable. being able to complain to her about anything and everything during 12:00 and 18:00 really helps in keeping me sane. thank you for your ear chabor.
having some friends around for some 2 hr lunches and tea breaks makes working life less dull.
thursdays and fridays are dedicated to "must go scout for cheap good food" together with jo, wynn and julie. this includes never ending chatter about cute boys. i need to find "motivation" to come to work.
occasional meetups with lvl 3 peeps are too much fun and laughs. it's been 2 years since i first worked with them, meaning i've been in ibm for 2 freaking years on-off, yucks.
then there's the buddy over at STC although i seldom see you anymore.
work is less torturous with everyone around. although everyday when i come to work, i can't wait till its 6pm and would count down together with Kaykong on msn - our "OMG ITS ONLY FREAKING 3PM/ Sian, it's only 4/ one and half hour more can go home!" time doesn't fly but at least you're there to entertain my craps.
