it required 110% from me

Last year at this same day, i got the news that placed me here. New job offer. That was the news.

The reason i stepped out of the my job then was it required 110% from me and offered me less in return. I remembered  i was asked during the interview whether i would serve in Bintulu if i am to be hired. I said “yes”. But i added that after a plausible time i will ask for a transfer. They tested me again what if i was not allowed? I answered “i will ask for a reconsideration”. What if the company insisted you stayed? They asked. “Then i’ll quit”.

Experience taught me to never compromise into losing  what i want if there is a no win-win situation. I read in an article where the writer explained on the “sex and cash” job concept. Allow me to quote:

The creative person basically has two kinds of jobs. One is the sexy, creative kind. Second is the kind that pays the bills.

After a lot of job hopping i still can say that all previous jobs and current job r the second kind. Life is not always fair but i do expect life to be rewarding. Timing will sit in between the efforts and the unexpected rewards. Everyone wants a good life that’s why I’m still going after my dream job. Twice being rejected but i still have the flame to pursue it again.

Today is my 28th bday. Older and I should be at least more wiser than a year back. I am grateful for the age god has blessed upon me as i lost a few good friends throughout the past years. To Haris and Iswady, ALfatihah.

To my friends who wished me using sms wishing me happy bday, i thank you all. To mr.Abaz, Yam, Fara n Ijam TQ. To those who remembered TQ.  Eventhough i’m always the one not wishing all of you on your bdays. Thats my fault coz i dont remember other bdays (except for my mum’s, sister’s n dad’s). My bad. Im bad memorizing numbers.

I’m in the most unproductive mood this weekend. Note: I have to entertain 3 appointments tomorrow. This year maybe it is not 110 percent but the challenges are nerve wrecking. I think i need to run aggresively again but Ramadhan month is weighing me down on the number of trips to the gym.

Hmm… im out of words. See u when i see u.
