workplace

Sometimes we are forced to do something even if we don’t like.

I leave in the office 9:00 pm last night and I’m already here in the office 6:00 am. Still dizzy and sleepy, I’m rushing to the conference room to set things up before the conference starts. When I arrived in the conference room a frown face greeted me.  I just stand there in the corner and tried to observe whats happening. Lady “M” tried many times to connect to the meeting session through Webex, yet with no success. I know shes so pist-off and pressured, she started to telling me, “Akala ko ba na setup mo na to.” I thought you have set this up and ready for use. She started blaming me and what I did, I told her “Can I barrow the keybord and mouse?”, I typed the URL path and puff it works.

I get irritated and can’t stand staying in the conference room. I go back to my desk and now Im writing this.  I wont let her ruin my day. It should have been lighter if she take it calmly so we could think and work on the solution. It would be faster and so easy.

Sometimes people get carried away and forget there values. I’m sorry for her. 

What I know is that I love my job and I will do my best in everything that I do with a great smile in my face. If you encounter this kind of people, don’t mind them, smile and be calm…everything will be alright.

Alas

Alas! I recieved my visa last week -thursday!..Finally!.

I’ve been sorting out and preparing to pack my things now. Also, busy in the office to get things done before I leave…

I’m getting excited now! I have not yet prepared my itenery after the training… Hope evrything will gonna be fine…

I promise to myself

Believe

When I was a child, I wonder what the other side of the world look likes. Places  that I could only see in TV, magazine , post cards and etc.  I have had that question in mind since I was a child.  However, it was not until I have to undergo an On the job training  as part of my degree in college that I was able to have a chance to live here in Manila far from the place I grew up.

After my OJT I was hired in the same company where I undergo the training. Two years and 2 moths past here I am still working here in the same company.

Last month, I was told I will be the representative of the department for 2weeks training in Camberley UK.  I was so happy and blessed enough to have that rare opportunity in my life.  In return I will be bind for 3yrs in the company.

Few days left, I’m bound to London via Dubai on Sept. 27 at 12:05 in the morning. I had already confirmed my hotel accommodation, ticket has been issued already yet my visa has not yet arrived.  I have 7working days left before September 27 comes.

Despite this, I would tell myself and really feel that I was excited that my UK Visa is coming my way this Friday.  I would believe that the Universe conspires in helping me to achieve it. 

The Unexpected

It’s the possibility of having dream come true makes life interesting. – Paulo Coelho

I have been so busy lately. Last August, I was informed that I will be attending training In Camberley, UK office. I am so happy to know that somebody in the group recommended me to  be the representative of our Department in the training. The training will start Sept. 29, 2008 for two weeks and I’m the only one coming from Manila.

Today is September 9, 2008, I have Hotel reservation at Frimley hall hotel and Spa, Camberley and also my flight has been booked in a business class accommodation in Emirates Airline, yet my Visa has not yet arrived.  I submitted the visa application last August 26, 2008. I’m kind of worried now that my visa will not arrive on time. I’m hoping for a miracle to happen.

This is my first time to travel abroad incase. Hope I would be lucky enough to receive my Visa next week.. Also, im waiting for my visa to arrive, before I buy stuff that I need like luggage, and etc. Hays..

PS: I really want this unexpected opportunity come true. It’s a dream that I have been waiting to come true. Lord, please take over.
