I'm moving on...

It has been confirmed. I am moving on from here. It has been 2 years I worked here, all ups and downs would end on the coming 8th of Sept. Enduring 2 years in Company Q has brought myself, mentally and physically strong to face obstacles. Starting a new company is not easy, what more a factory. From scrap, I see slab by slab the factory is built. I lived on with German culture, I worked under pressure from demanding bosses, I worked in a construction plant!! I have never a slight idea this job would be like this when I signed the employment letter. All I know is a great opportunity to get training and stay in Europe. But once the Europe thingee is gone, hell started. Safety shoe, safety helmet, safety vest, safety harness, face mask, "ghost lorry", red muddy pool, big giganto rocks, dust, deadly sun beam, heat, lunching in a container together with construction workers?!... you name it. Basically my skin went from fair and smooth to rough and dark. Curse Company Q!

Despite the hellish working condition in Q, I still survived for 2 years. Maybe motivating factor are the group of colleagues here. Somehow there is laughter in the midst of desert hell.

Recently I made an internal department move.. from manning facilities to R&D and manufacturing. I was devastated in the new department. Manufacturing is no joke, it's boring and robotic routine. No doubt work is never all fun, I accepted the fact and adapt myself to the way of things go about here. I am okay until this fella calling himself manager for my team started to show his colours. He was the one who brought me into the new department, I was actually half-hearted to change or not to change; but he dragged me like dragging a cow up a tree. I agreed to move, but eventually understand what everyone is talking about. This puppet manager has no knowledge in management/skill at all! He possessed the skill of shoe polishing though, big boss's shoe of cause! Lame! I definitely will not shine in this department..

No, I am not wasting my precious time anymore. If things don't work means it won't work, even if I tried to adapt. It's not healthy. I shall now put everything behind, some fond memories of this factory... and some dreadful ones. It's time to move on.. and concentrate on the challenges ahead!

Goodbye.. Q.

W.O.T.P.

10th of November 2012, the day we booked our first property together as husband and wife. It was indeed a huge milestone after we signed our ROM papers. This is a luxury condominium developed by Selangor Dredging Berhad and it's located at Bandar Tun Hussein Onn, Batu 9, Cheras Selatan. This is a very interesting development because it is situated on 8.9 acres of Freehold land with 4.2 acres of landscaped environment (Yes, half of the development is actually greenery!) The unit built-up range between 916 sq. ft. to 4,311 sq. ft. and sold for about RM450 - RM680 per square feet.  We bought a unit at Block C which is lowest block on the left. Location of W.O.T.P. with proposed MRT station few kilometers away.  The lovely greenery and facilities are really serene and awesome! Facilities: 50m lap pool Children’s wading pool Children outdoor play area Teen’s play area 2 nos. of indoor badminton courts Gym/ aerobic room Function hall by the pool (6 ban

What am I?

It has been some time since I last updated this blog. Heaps of stuff happened and I just had the time to pull a break and evaluate the events that happened to me in the past 1 month. I've changed my job, moving into sales line is not an easy decision to make. I was doubtful with myself until I really come on board. Perhaps it may be too soon to tell where I stand in this job, but I was really thankful that my current boss gave me an insight of myself. We had sessions to understand what are our temperament. This is something that govern what kind of job that fits us. Apparently I am an "Artisan" after few rounds of personality tests. An artisan loves freedom, leads by taking action, seeks to have impact and variation, needs appreciation, a risk taker, problem solver and an opportunist. When I read the full description bout what I am, I immediately understand why I felt in constraint and bored working in the manufacturing line. I am just not that type of person that falls i

Life

I'll be quarter a century old in a day. In a day's time my birthday would come, and most probably would just simply go. Didn't expect much this year, or maybe age has certain impact on me. I'll be 25 soon. This is so alarming scary, time just flew too fast. Everything changes. I looked like awfully nerdy 3 years ago when I was still in UPM. I've started working one year ago, this was the fastest one year in my life. Life has been so committed to work and work, I couldn't realise time flew across and here I am. Evaluating what I've done over the past 1 year. I've learnt many many things, both in life and in work. From an ordinary 2nd upper graduate to now a project engineer. Nothing big achieved but I felt contented, at least I'm working towards my goal. It's just kinda overwhelming to think back times, was so excited on the 1st day of kindy, was so nervous going into primary school compound, was so trilled to step into secondary school, was so c
