My ex-supervisor is back to Penang so we went lunch together with my ex-boss and 2 colleagues. I like being with them because I am the youngest among all and they will take very good care of me and I have the reason to manja although I am almost 30, ha. (Hey I am only 28, going on 29 very soon ~ I am not a girl, but not yet a woman, okay?)
Ex-supervisor told me that she is not so happy with her job, not the job actually, but the environment. Our company pampered her for too long and now she is facing difficulty handling the politics in new company. Yea that’s true, I think I understand how she feels. Anyone that works with my company for long time will hardly like the new place. In my company, you’ll find calm, peaceful, nice, comfortable working environment. We don’t politic each other. For those who try to change our culture, aha, what I can tell is, that’s the stupidest thing to do. There was a Senior Buyer join us before I left. First day she came, very famous already (long story Zzz..). 2nd day of work, she shouted and me and questioning me how many users have come to me and how many issues I am handling and why can’t I go her place, her face was sooooooooooooooooooooooo fierce. Wow. I told her we don’t work that way here. Then, I get to know that less than 1 month time; she got 3 warnings from the managers, ha.
No doubt I miss the old days in old company. Everyday I have tons of emails to read, tons of issue to settle, tons of customers to handle. I was busy like hell, but I was happy. I was alone in my team to handle the whole business application (sounds crazy yea), but I enjoyed it and never requested my boss to hire someone for me. The problem is I see no improvement of myself. I see no challenge. No value adds. So I decided to move, before I reach 30.
My ex-supervisor will be here for 1 week. Hope I can catch up with her for lunch again. I really appreciate the opportunity she and my boss gave to me.
My ex-company,
My ex-boss,
My ex-supervisor,
My ex-colleagues,
I miss you all.
