Current climate

We were talking about redundancy today at work today and it actually struck me considering the current climate, the chances of me being made redundant.

Virgin Media had announced a job cut of 2,200 by 2012 and it makes me wonder am i actually affected? We do honestly have a huge database from Customer Services to Provisioning to even Sales and us in Loyalty is just unnecessary – we have been available without any calls for at least 30 minutes before the next one is due in. At least. We get on average 45 calls a day between 4.5 of us. How sad is that?

No commission – not target driven. Nothing.

If I were to made redundant I honestly doubt I will stay here anymore – because I want to make my track back far east. To where I belong,

because then  I will be with all the dearest.

As I sat here on my desk, I begin to realise the difference between the working environment here comparatively to back home. Every Friday feels like a proper Friday – we wear whatever we want – casual, comfortable, no stress, finish at half five, people rushing off for after-work Friday drinks, and hey hang on a second – where was this when I worked with EY?

I enjoy working – I enjoy earning my own money, I enjoy rooting off my own feet – i enjoy the independence, but above all, i love NOT burdening my parents and instead being able to afford the luxury that they once had provided me for.

I could see if I were to be at home now – working for a MNC earning a measley RM2,500 prior to tax i would never a chance live the life I am living now, daily shopping, living in a nice fancy apartment, scrumptious meals and 50 pairs of heels

….and yet i still feel something very much is missing.

MUST PEN THIS DOWN

Seriously I think I am getting slightly fed up at work not only that I am in apparently ‘Customer Services’, selling technique whatsoever DOES NOT FUCKING APPLY. I mean honestly, I doubt I will enjoy this sales profession and I think I am by far at my hardest, WEAKEST and seriously I sometimes doubt my ability to talk and sell.

Got a customer who said I was ‘arsy’ and I am somewhat intimidated by people strangling me with questions and harassing me. I have yet to be firm and say NO.

HOW LAR??!

I am missing the prestige of an accountancy firm – the accountancy profession. =(
