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.

CIBAI

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. =(
