The Feline Territory

I thought i was the only one having a dilemma about career progression right now. OK, me and my Proton buddy who becomes each other’s punchbag every single day in our every single conversation about Proton and our workloads.

I’m the Nerd Who Wears Dior (as a lipstick) and he’s the Nerd Who Wears Oakley (as a pair of glasses).

We’re both having massive internal-within-ourselves issues about work. Our bosses have extreme expectations upon us, but people take advantage of us when we deliver.

Sometimes u can feel really down when your hard earned work isn’t compensated fairly.

Anyway, when we think like we were the only ones having a career-oriented problem- sitting there, staring at our Kopi O and just confessing to each other the donkey jobs we’ve been doing all day, the HR Director turned up and joined us. I first thought he could have some answers to my internal-depression queries, but he instead announced his resignation from the company.

Bummer.. just when i thought he would be a soul-motivator, he had to drop the bomb into my Kopi O. And i thought Nerdy Oakley and i are the only ones who are having massive career progression problem.

But whats true about this whole thing is that we are all humans, no matter where we are, who we are and where we’re at. For someone who were as high in position as he is, he looked the exact fear just like it would be on anybody else’s face who was resigning. Nervous. Unsure. A big burden off his chect.

Worst, the MD joined us in his kain pelekat and he was the very image of a Tok Penghulu. I cannot get the picture outta my head. He said kenapa kerja teruk sangat ni becoz i was still in my stinky Proton uniform eating stinky food and looked real stinky thanks to my groggy zombie eyes.

I’m so dazed these days. Life is hell-ish with this project of mine. I really cannot wait for it to launch in less than 50 days!!

I think this Kopitiam is off limits for me right now. I wanted to get dinner and a peace of mind… i got the exact contrary instead. So much for hoping i’m the old with the big problem with workloads…. someone had worst.
