THE PIECES
Sunday, October 11, 2009

I never knew how important culture is in a company, until I started work in Feb 09.

It's been wonderful, honestly. The culture, the colleagues, the bosses, the friends. The opportunities, the open feedback system, the support and help. All amazing.

Even though I've told my boss that this job is not quite for humans, I think everyone in the company are happy immortals.

Almost everything is different from what I expected in a job in the cut-throat working world. The only thing that remains the same is the hard work you have to put in. Everything else is different.

I've already experienced first-hand how people can say that they are happy at work, and how people can say that it's not really work to them. I can understand when people say that the people at work are just like family. I never have to drag myself to work, and it's never a chore when you have to stay till late everyday. Seeing your colleagues and bosses during weekends aren't repulsive.

I finally can comprehend how some people say that working for the money is secondary. The satisfaction and sense of achievement that you get from a simple "good job" is worth all the crazy hours you put in. At just 21 (almost the youngest in the company), and less than a year here, I've already been given many opportunities to prove myself. I've even gone to Beijing on the company account! (Of course I worked my butt off for that)

Many friends (and family) have asked me why I'm still here (the hours I put in are crazy, and the pay isn't fantastic). But it's more than the money; I'm happy here. Genuinely happy.

Of course, I must give credit to all my loved ones who have been supporting me all the way. I know it's not easy, but thank you for your understanding and patience. I love you for that <3

If you want to be happy with me, let me know ok? Our company is still recruiting :)

Disappointment is very much worse than anger.

Especially on Children's Day.
