Starting over again

Wheel on September-18-11

We received a touching e-mail from our company head. That is what I like about him, he knows how to motivate his people. He maybe studied psychology? Anyways, our company is somehow struggling because the technology we depend on is being taken over by another technology. Thus, we need to keep up with the demands.

Anyways, I know that we can do it again just like before.

Wait

Wheel on February-27-11

Own laptop, telephone line, and even brother printers are available plus my own desk and chair or you may say my own room of sort! That is the exclaimed statement of my nephew why he is aiming for the job he applied for yesterday. He applied for the marketing assistant position which will be his stepping stone and eventually be his tool to climb that corporate ladder. I know that he will make it. He just have to wait. I can remember that I waited for years before I finally got my dream job.

Not a choice

Wheel on July-15-10

Bright ones will definitely leave seeking growth.

I was watching my favorite morning show and the sort of business segment talked about employee training. who should be given training? Only employees who perform? What is the importance of training?

Bright employees leave when they feel that nothing is happening with their career there. In the first place, are they supposed to be there? Am I asking myself? You might ask me how long have I been in the company I am working for? well, you might again ask, why it took ten years before I was able to realize that I do not fit in?

You stay because, you have nowhere else to go…. It is not a choice.

Sometimes, reunions are dreaded. Well, you get to realize some things like if you are successful or not after twenty years. Yes, our high school class will be meeting again after twenty years. What will I tell them? Should I tell them that I am successful and working as a business plan consultant thus I could actually cater to all of them? The truth is, I am not contented where I am right now. Maybe I should not attend. But, I would surely love to see old friends! I am confused! I should decide soon because it is only a few says from now.
