i’m gonna let you in on a secret…
*in a hushed voice*i’m gonna…
…start to working next week!!!
wahhh…did i just scream?!hahahaha…c’mon,give me some lovin’!hahaha
now everyone knows that imma make myself busy this time.hopefully, i won’t get overworked.:) that’s my third wish coming true. nyay!i got accepted on the day of the interview and i was given the weekened to think things over…so i’ve just decided, “yeah..why not give it a try?” i called them up and said I’ve made up my mind and asked when would i start. All set, tuesday’s gonna be my first day at work. It’s a new outsourcing company (they’ve been operating for over a year now.still a neophtye,right?)located in Cubao. And it’s just one and 15-min ride away from home (heavy traffic inclusive.haha). I get to choose my own fixed schedule (it’s not flexi time,though), to work only 7 hours plus a paid 1-hour lunch break(=8 hours) but 6 days a week, to eat anytime I want, have my own personalized PC, and a one week trial to see if I really want to stay for good! Ain’t that cool? ![]()
…but things are really weirding me out lately. I can’t block it off my mind. I kept wondering…”are these things really happening to me?” Pinch me.
Look here:
Last wednesday, I woke up at the wrong side of the bed with my head throbbing, an exasperating text message and a breakfast that tastes bad (or I just hadn’t brushed my teeth?I can;t remember). I was screaming and bitching to the heavens about how i badly i want to work to get few extra bucks JUST for Christmas shopping and how bored i am waking up every morning waiting for something to bob up. And I did I really think that the Job i want would come to me! Mom was telling me to relax and not to stress out myself too much. As i was about to say another word, the phone rang. I answered it. It was a call from a certain e-commerce company in Makati, inviting me for an interview the next day. I thought it was just a hoax and I didn’t even hear her mention my name because of her tiny voice, so I asked who she wanted to talk to and if it was me.She said SARAH MARIE MALANYAON. Yeah that was me. But I couldn’t remember applying in that company and with that position. She said they read my CV/profile over Jobstreet and took the chance to call me. Basta, before I went there, I’ve already asked tons of questions and found out that the company really exists.Haha.
As i hung up, there’s another ring and a beep from my celphone. Voila! It’s another interview on friday….
after much deliberation, I chose the latter. The former still asked me to wait for their call next week. But that thursday, it felt like an orientation. They’re already introducing me to the staff and how the work gets done around there. The boss was telling me, “there’s where you will stay (pointing at the desk) and michelle will help you out. I’m sure you’ll love this job if you love going out and shopping” and all other things that suggests…you’re gonna be part of us. Siyempre, for formalities, they have to do a background check whatever. I couldn’t explain the business, but it’s a pure business thingy. I don’t have to write, just PR skills. It’s like a philippine-based amazon and ebay (an online shopping thingy…hay,they’re really friendly…but i told myself in the elevator, on my way to the exit, “whichever comes first”…so that’s basically the reason why I chose the other one plus it’s near the house and their monthly salary is the same. Makakatipid ako pag mas malapit,diba?:)
Oh…so ayun,that’s not even half of my chika-galore but that’s all I can yak about for now.Hehe…
Hay, i’m like a melting piece of ice cube.
