resignation

Joy just quit this morning. I should feel bad but me, along with the rest of the team (minus coach) were envious that she left ClientLogic. Good job, for her! Even if she is unemployed at least she is free.

Karen, one of our teammates, suggested to write one resgination letter and we sign all of our names on it. I remarked that it would be like signing for a petition. Imagine if one whole team decided to resign and abandon their coach. I find the idea hilarious, but wouldn't it be fun?

I wanted to quit but decided to stay after all, money is money despite the fact that I felt worse than a factory worker. At least they have a rest day.

post birthday

I just recently turned 25 during wednesday this week. I invited my teammates over at my house and it was fun. Of course since my teammates know what FUN is.

To mark off my 25th year in this lifetime, I had my hair cut since it is getting hot (summer na kaya), very dificult in drying my hair and I am getting tired of my long hair. Hopefully, this would be a new start for me.

I applied for coach and QA. My interview for the coaching position was finished (it was so sudden) and when I came out of the Senior Director's room I wanted to scream. I knew I screwed up big time and I am not expecting to ever become a coach because of that. I hated my answers and I wonder if the Senior Director and Operations manager found me very amusing.

As for the QA position, I plan to take the upcoming interview seriously.

Wish me luck!

Valentine's Day

By monday people all over the world would celebrate Valentine's Day. A day where we celebrate love. Or for me, a reminder on how alone I am.

FUNG in short...fun group

I am along with Ruby (a teammate of mine) are one of the members of a fun group in the office. A fun committee was made to liven things up in the center. I wonder if we even deserve to be in that group. Ruby is a quiet woman while I am too serious for words and always angry.

Russel is the coach in that team and this gay fella is one fun guy. Not to mention that he is wacky. But the problem is how to generate fun in the center when most people had already given up that concept? Most of my teammates were bitter and disillusioned about what is happening to them or to all of us. I don't blame 'em. I feel the same way as they do.

I was never involved in anything except my job and my writing. But committees? Forget it. But now I am. And for a serious person like I am this is a challenge for me.

Hope to have fun!

promotion

Just for kicks I decided to apply as a coach in training. I'm almost 7 months in the company (yay) and I thought to myself why not I mean it wouldn't hurt to try right? Besides I have my previous call center job as part of my qualification.

I already submitted my resume and internal job application form along with my coach's recommendation letter. Aside from me there were 4 more of my teammates who applied for the same position though the 4th one also planned to apply for a trainer.

Office politics is so hard to overcome (especially if sex is involved) and I wonder if I would be promoted without going through this bullshit. Oh well who knew?

But as they say in Japanese: gambatte yo!
