It can be so daunting to start a new career especially if you are now handling a new job portfolio. For the first time since 2005, I found myself being glued to the chair in the spirit of making a good impression to my new bosses. My ex-colleagues would be so proud of me! Heck, even when I was pregnant, I could not sit still!
Yesterday, I got a "scolding" from my upper boss (ie. my boss's boss). I would have crush that little man if not for my self-control which I cultivated over the years of working. Shall not go into the nitty gritty details because it just makes my heart boil everytime I think about it. All I know is that, by the end of today, I would have finished my first week here. I am soo looking forward to the weekend with Beanz and the boy.
And guess what? Today, is the first time that I actually miss being in my old office. Who would have thought that?! My workstation then was so much bigger than my current workstation and I can screen every goddamn calls I received. This is quite useful everytime I wanted to escape calls from the boss. Whenever he used to call, it would be my cue to sneak out of my workstation, because in a few minutes' time, he would make his way to my place and ask me whatever crap that he doesn't know.
Other than my workstation, I miss my older colleagues whom I have grown to be quite fond of. They would look out for me basically and I must say, they are the best bodyguards a girl could ever have...
Sigh. Must keep faith in this new place. It is afterall, just a week. There is still another 11 months 3 weeks more to go. (I have this principle to stay at least 1 year in any job that I undertake.)
May that principle be kept always. God speed.
