New Job, Greater Heights!

Proper Instruction
So, im finally done with my endorsement. I instructed the new IT guy and i hope i got it all in his head with just a day of endorsement. The task are not that hard and i im confident that he can do it himself. My HR was even amazed when i submitted the endorsement letter with the new IT guy's signature on it. I asked him again if he understands everything before i actually let him sign the sheet. He did sign it and today was the day when he was alone without my company because i driving my younger brother to summer class.

Could this be the ONE?
I pray to God that i would be an employee of big companies like Lexmark, Lear, NEC, NCR, and i also prayed that i would not be staying unemployed for a long time. Richmedia, a digital signage advertising company is hiring an IT Staff and i applied. I was called up for 3 interviews and I would be working for them soon. Even if im not working for big companies, im still happy that God answered my prayers and they only need one IT Staff and there were 3 of us on the first interview. God is really amazing, i just hope that ill be able to stay long here, as for my compensation...im still in probationary, i just hope it will increase a bit higher.

MAD

Driving me Crazy
It's driving me crazy. I managed to format almost all the computers a few months ago with the help of some other guys. Happy as I am that it's all done. Today, as i checked on the computers in the Front Desk, one of unit got a virus. I remembered that i told them not to use USB but they still use it to put in songs because its boring they say. I disabled the audio driver so they can't get any sounds from it but they managed to fix it, amazed but i just kept quite. Today was the day when i finally disable the USB. Im pretty sure they used USB for the new songs rather than using the cd. If its cd, then it has a virus in it too. I just hate it.

FUTURE

Resignation
Few more days from now and im gonna leave this office. Im currently searching for other opportunities here,there and everywhere. Sometimes, i wonder a lot whether i can get a job soon or still stay at home and wait for time to pass by. Regret? not really, maybe i just don't want to stay unemployed that long, in my head, it's telling me im gonna.

Positive Thinking
I guess positive thinking will help around on this scenario. I think determination, setting goals, will keep us going. If your a lazy ass then you feel this way. Sometimes we do feel this way and i too experienced this. When negative CHI gets around you, find ways to overcome it, because if you don't... you need to buy a rocking chair.

Photography

Don Moen
So I was called up by the Sales manager to take in charge of the photography last Friday, April 11,2008. Don Moen came over to our hotel and he wants me to take a picture of them. Another call from the owner, wanted me to take a photo of Don Moen and his family so i took his request instead. I can't take both...lolz,im not doctor Octopus. Don Moen came with his wife and with his band mates i guess and they performed at USP open field. I wasn't there though.

Happy
I may not be in the photo together with them but the thought of them saying thank you and you've done a great job will be enough. They loved the shots but its all because of the DSLR, i admit. I will try to post some of the pics i got if its possible for me to get some copies of it,hehehe.

Nothing much after that...

Know Your Product

Wrong Information
So, I was waiting for the license keys from Microsoft so that i can start legalizing the remaining PCs. I received it and got a call from Microsoft of Manila that i can use a Win XP Pro cd to format the PCs. Taking her advice, i head-up and start,i got to the point where i should enter the key and it did not work, Invalid Product Key printed on the screen. I called up Microsoft and explained the issue, and he said that i should wait for the media intended for that license.

REACTION
1. When answering the phone, excuse yourself when you cough. I know the virus won't pass through the telephone line, it's called MANNERS!

2. Don't give wrong information, know your product better before you advice you customers. Your company is big, a little misinformation could take you down.

Ticking TIME

Job HUNT
So i bought our local newspaper this morning and our HR was right, there was no ad for my position. So, what't the plan of our Manager? Killing Time? He said he is not going to give me clearance if no one will take over my place,hmmmm i'll wait forever then? He asked me again Yesterday about my decision and my answer will always be, " I have decided and will not change my mind." He asked me if im hired by Microsoft and i said NO. I wonder what's in his mind and why Microsoft?

ANNOYED
He kept asking the very same question, " Are you hired already by Microsoft? " Hey, If you don't believe, ask them then and stop making lousy guesses because your not Madam Auring ( Famous Fortune Teller ). Even if you are, why would you care? My contract has already ended and i did not sign any other paper. What bothers me most was when he said "If you won't be honest with yourself, you won't succeed in life"..... Whats this all about? is it because your suspicious that im not telling you the truth?

REACTION
As if he could change my mind. His actions are too much and its really annoying. Maybe he hasn't encountered someone more annoying than him that's why he doesn't know how annoying he is.... Mr. Manager Sir....SHUT UP!

Resignation

Bye Guys
I've finally decided to pass my resignation paper to HR last March 31, 2008. My attention was called these past days because our Manager wanted me to stay, but i already decided to leave my workplace.

WHY? Whats wrong?
1. My job was way out of the contract. I got to work for 2 more companies and the pay? unbelievable.
2. I understand that i need to serve more than one head...well, i guess im no ordinary System Admin i guess.
3. Too many goody goody... They act good in front of your boss just to get some points and stab you at the back.
4. Management Sucks.

JUst STAY!
So our Manager talked to me and convince me to stay. I don't quite like the way he encourages me to stay because he included some insults to it. If they are to pay me right...still i decide to resign. Im pretty sure that they will pressure me the more. If i do wrong...hmmmm..." Hey, your not doing right, we paid you well, your not worth we paid for..." OHH...i see that line coming.

To the MANAGER
I understand that your doing your job and that you don't want to be questioned by the Managing Director but you should respect other people's decision. You may encourage them, enlighten them but don't add foolish thoughts with it because we are no kids and your excuse that your older and that u've been through all these...its not encouraging at all, its insult.

Don't be one sided. Your not a Manager if that's the case. I learned a lot from you Sir, but don't be close minded. You think your not but we see you as you are.
