First Step into the Working World
Thursday, April 18, 2013

This is my first official step into the working world, stuck in a company for 4 months. To some people, it may be simply 4 months but it seems to be a draggy one to me. If you know me well enough, from the two sentences, you would have known im not enjoying my work... :(

I was being offered a job to be admin cum receptionist. Basically, im covering mostly receptionist job. It seems easy enough and true enough, it was. The initial pay was $2.2k. But since i had worked as an intern in the company before, my final offer was slightly higher. Since they pay is good and the job is easy... So, what am i complaining about?

Well, in the working world,  theres always problems but it depends on nature. Most of the time, its either people or the job is giving you the problem. But since it aint about the job, its the people then. 

Some might have already come to know that i study Diploma in Business Management, specialising in Human Resource. Therefore, im working as part of the Human Resource team. Being in the HR team should be fun as you interact with many others. However, outsiders are nice but its the insiders that are the haunting ones. As expected, there are politics and fake fronts, this has favoritism in the mixture.

And where are the honesty policy supposed to be placed at when you emphasis on it? Whats the big deal about have department lunch session? Why keep it a secret like its illegal? Why say its a meeting when its a long hours lunch and hide from each department. 

Day to day, everyone plasters a fake smile through the day and holds a shield at their back. (yes, backstabs) While i am only a temp, im constantly involved in such childish act. If you are holding a higher position, you should have set an example to your subordinates and you wouldnt end up with a mess and other departments looking down on each other. 

I knew that kinda pay involved much work and i felt like im in a warzone daily. Only that i try to protect myself.
