There’s so many things going on in my life while I was out-of-computer for a month and one of it being, I got 2 job offers. One from H* and another one it’s a local company. H* gave me roughly 2K from what I am earning now and the local company gave me a lesser total from H* but a higher basic.
You know, if it were to be last year that I got the job offers, I might just move on and grab it. However, things are just different this year and you must be wondering why?
Well, simply because I have matured a little and things are just in place as of now that I just do not want it to change although the extra income would come in handy. Money ain’t everything afterall.
You know, the reason I even applied for the job was because I felt so frustrated, depressed, de-motivated, tired with the current company. To me, there’s just too much drama for me to handle. The environment when you are in a project is too tensed. Hey, don’t get me wrong. I do understand about the hecticness (is there such a word? Heheh) of being in a project because I am always in one but somehow, it’s totally different in S*****.
But, all of that change when I, Ace was no longer handling any project. I can suddenly feel the freedom. And, at this time, being ‘idle’ is the greatest gift from GOD. I’m grateful. Why is that? Sebabbbb…. Both my kids are schooling in Putrajaya and we have not found anyone to help us send and fetch them from school every single day and so, with the ‘freedom’ that I have, I am able to pick them up every single day although in real fact most of the time my hubby picks them up just because they behave better with him than with me ;). But still, I am always there to fetch them if he is busy, right?
So, you see, I have been thinking, if I were to take the H* offer, I will reside in Damansara Heights and I definitely cannot make it to school even if there’s emergency from hubby’s side and same goes to the local company. But, the truth is as for the local company, it is actually not that far, it is situated in MINES but, but…. Of course it is not as near as Cyberjaya, then again it’s sort of far and plus, I was a bit skeptical because I never worked in all Malay environment. Even the Director told me that I would probably get a shock.. hahaha.. anyways, if it meant to be, it is meant to be. I guess, the position it is just not MINE.
And another thing, since I am now ‘on bench’, I am able to be home early in the evening. By 6 or 6+, I am already at home cooking or playing with the kids and by 8:30pm, I can put them both to sleep although they might end up sleeping at 9:30pm.
Still, all that make a huge difference because if I were to work far from home, let say in KL, I don’t think I am able to reach at that hour. The earliest would probably be 7:30pm and that is if I were to come out from the office sharp 6pm. What more with the extra tense due to the heavy traffic on the road, I will definitely lost my mood on the way home and by the time I reached home, I’ll be too tired to ‘layan’ my kids and just head to the kitchen with a ‘sour-ish’ face and dinner might only be served at 9pm. My kids will end up sleeping at 10pm the earliest and if ‘bad times’, they might even dragged till 11pm or worst at midnight. And what about in the morning? Gosh! Thinking of it makes me tired too! Hahaha.. if they were to sleep late at night, surely they will put an extra ‘tantrum’ in the morning, and I too have to wake up extra early because I need to start travelling early as well just to avoid the massive jam and with all the ‘commotion’, I guess it’ll spoils everyone’s mood. Thus, to maintain the much more structured routine, I have decided to remain ‘silent’ in my present company. Haih!!
And so, I am still working with S***** and it’s fun here, a bit bored at times but since there’s so much activity going on so I am having a good time!
Although, there’s few opportunities coming but I guess, I will just follow my heart. If I think it’s wise to try then I will go for it otherwise I’ll just stay put. Seriously, “tempat yang I tak suka itu lah, tempat yang I tahan lama”.
It’s really true with me because I always, always and I repeat again, I always got the things that I don’t like coz I am just one weird person. Just maybe, the things that I don’t like is the thing that is truly for me ;). Does that make sense? Hahaha…
