For e past 1 mth, i lived life feeling so uncertain & full of anxiety. Now its over.. all over. I applied for e post of accounts executive @ S'pore Power. In fact, i attended 2 interviews. The 1st was wif e HR ppl. They took so long to reply, abt 2 wks later, to say dat i'm granted another interview wif e branch mgr. I even dreamt beforehand dat i was interviewed by a panel of interviewers & it proved to be my 2nd interview. I wanted dat job so badly. Apparently, it's a supervisory post. I'll haf staff under me & i'll be doing management reports rather than e usual debits & credits. A week later, e HR called to say dat i've been selected. I was overjoyed but my happiness din last for long. Only 1 min to be precise. Guess how much they offered me for salary..? I was SHOCKED dat i almost screamed at e HR girl. "WAT $1400! ARE U KIDDING ME?!". I declined immediately. That girl must haf taken aback by my response. "Who e heck is this minah to turn down an offer from S'PORE POWER. She tinks she's a big shot issit?" haha.. seriously, it's too low, miserably low. Even my net pay now, after deducting CPF, is almost $1.4k. Hey, i still haf to pay my own sch fees. Shux! It din even cross my mind it'll be THAT low. I mean it's a stat board & it's an executive post. And as i am feeling down rite now, wan is laughing his ass off. He jus can't believe after all e trouble i took to prepare for e interview & e long agonising wait coz their internal board of reviewers haf to go thru stringent selection process, in e end they offer me only dat much. Wonder how much they offer a uni grad. Confirm less than $2k. Oh wellz, sometimes things jus doesn't go our way. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.
Anyway i'm getting comfortable wif my present job. Everything seems to be fine. But no one, NO ONE leaves on time. The office is of an open concept. So anyone who dares walk out early will be stared at. Eh how come this fella can go back early? nuthin to do huh? haha.. in other words u'll be diggin yr own grave. The nx day, yr spervisor will pile yr desk wif lots of paperwork. Some GREAT company culture huh. My colleagues are a friendly bunch but i really can't stand e boss. He's this fat ugly mama who looks very much like shrek, only dat he's black instead of green & is either deaf or just blardy short tempered coz he seems to enjoy shouting at others. But thank God i'm not reporting to him, so no fret. I doubt he even knows i exist.
