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!

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...

Gatherings

I just had 2 gatherings recently. 1 with my high school aka childhood buddies and another with my university buddies. Really appreciate this little time we spent together, just to maintain our friendship. We were once really really close friends and really hope our friendships will last as long as it gets. Last 2 weeks, 22nd June 2008. Me, Sue and Voon had a small gathering to celebrate Sue's 25th birthday at Red Box Plus in Pavilion. Pavilion used to be our school!! Our beloved BBGS used to be on the very spot Pavilion is. Well, having gathering here bring nostalgic memories back to us. Come to think, I've known Sue for 18 years and Voon for 10 years!! That was long..Remembered those days, where life was so problem-free, we used to have MacD almost everyday after school. Our reasons was to revise Add Maths together, the real reason was to have some loiter times. Since our houses were so near to each other, 3 of us always have the reason to go shopping after school. I mean, aft...
