Had a sit down session with the outgoing colleague, and she tell of her plan of going to an offshore island across the straits to work. I felt quite touch by her explanation and understand more now. Where else is best if one wants to save money. On an isolate island with no entertainment, living off allowances and saving 100% of her salary. I can feel her urgency and focusness in achieving her target.

It was an awakening for me. My initial feelings of rejection fades, and I feel recovered. 3 out of 4 colleagues that left the company, left the country to work. I should be confident and not feel rejected anymore.

Would be going down to field with new colleagues to work.

Hope my boyfriend is fine and well. Miss him.

The friend decided to stay on with her existing work, thus the hunt for new hands for the company is on going. I was quite down today, but accepted the cruel fact that ideal needs perseverence.

Wish i have my boyfriend’s shoulder to lean on. Recovery is instant when he is around. Can only imagine it now.

Working on, life is never easy. But will still work towards the objectives of having more time with my boyfriend and family continuos.

Hope my boyfriend has a smooth and restful day today.

Was listening to some old songs just now. It is very relaxing and nice. Smile and thinking of my boyfriend along with the songs. Just feel that he is a gentleman. Just feel loving towards my boyfriend.

Suddenly remembered a clip, about a group of happy kids surrounding a village father who brought back some leftovers from work for them. I feel tears well up a bit. Quite happy that there was emotional release after the many days of work.

Had an interview with an applicant just now. Quite happy with his acquittal, proper and calm. Think, is taking him as a junior.

Seeing another friend for dinner later to understand if she wishes to join us. Looking forward to seeing that the firm be filled by liked mined people. Feel very eager and hopeful to venture into the many coming days.

Feel like going for a relaxing meal or just laze around, but it remain a thought as i am inertia and lazy and without proper company. Imagining my boyfriend around, that would be prefect.

Body is feeling a bit jam these few days as pre menstruation period holds up a bit. If it clear by today, i would be back to the energetic self tomorrow.

Work is finishing for this month. But the thoughts go beyond now. It is thinking of the recruitment of new colleagues and mobilisation for upcoming’s work. Improvement on existing IT structure, and work flows, filing system and seating arrangement. It guess, the firm is improving everyday. Life is never easy, but happiness is the choice.

Feel happy that my boyfriend is accompanying me through the busy period. Thinking of him is a source of enthusiasm to live life to the fullest.

A few more days left. Working hard to finish the work. Progress quite well. Colleagues are working well despite the tight deadline. Would think of more ways to enhance compliance and efficiency. Hopeful of a better tommorrow for the office. With that i would have more time for my family and myself.

Working hard to finish up the work. Few more to go for the office.

Think of the happy thing and i am happy for the whole day. Smiling to myself, thinking of the funny email message, thinking of holidays with my boyfriend, thinking of capable and loyal colleagues, and happy office, i would become very enthusiatic and lively.

Thinking fondly of my boyfriend. Just love him very much for being him.

Like what my boyfriend said about being balance in our mindset and attitude. Not easy for me but is the path to take.

Quite pening today, as i encountered a difficult problem. Still squeezing brain juice trying to solve the issue created by a client.

How i wish i leave all the work behind and run away with my boyfriend. But then, i cant be irresponsible a person. The burden is too heavy.

My boyfriend is like water, versatile and moving, i am earth, plain and stagnant. i always smile thinking of our differences. Throught the years, i am slowly understanding him more. Appreciate and loving him for his patience to accomodate myself.

Moving slowly through the pile of work. As usual, finding ways to get things done faster while maintenance the quality.

Just blurting facts and feeling out is an enlightening process for me. Feel bad that my boyfriend always have to bear with me on difficult matters. Hope he would stay undisturbed as he is not expected to be the problem solver.

Working progressive on deadline today. Colleagues are progressing well and corporation is good. It is a bit amazing that the leaving colleague is pulling her weight well. However, the firm has reflected that they accept her resignation as she is more suitable else where. She would be paid her share of gratuities upon resignation to show the appreciation on her performance. I guess that ends the episod well.

Ate some forbidden food, battered fried chicken today. Feel a bit guilty. Would probably ate more vegetables to neutralise the omega 3 tonight.

Hope my boyfriend has a restful and happy day!

Greatful to my boyfriend. He is my torch in the dark, gentle nudge when i move in the wrong direction and opens me up to the new wide world. Just love him very much. Feel secure with him around, everyday.

In business, the margin is thinner than the older days with high staff pay-cheque and keen competition. Quality of clients rise and fall with the market conditions, and repayment terms drags, especially with big groups of companies.

Jobs are pouring in, and increase in staff inevitably cause the thinning of pay attraction due to gestation period of the training period and maturity of quality clients.

For a small firm, like the Company i work in, to support ambitious persons is no joke, especially in some case, within a period of 4 years, they are, without the family support, already buying high rise unit, a brand new car and undergoing a heart operation. It’s a reality of life. Understandabily, cost of living in this new world is real high.

Staff turnover is stressful on the firm’s resources, as training is stressful on the existing staffs, and privy information that lies in the firm might be compromised. Vacuum period would compromise work quality and losses customers confidence.

Killing off the slow paying customers is an options, but it has hugh repercussions effect too. Much more preparation work, eg staff reschuffle, repositioning of firm, is needed to be done if that is a step to be taken.

Thus, have been turning more to technology to save on human costs and staff turnover costs. Automate the mundane work flow, so that all human gets high pay and go home earlier without the stress of human problems.

At least going slower is less stressful for everyone. Money is not everything to me. I enjoy family time, cooking or just sitting quietly with my boyfriend in a small house more.
