~* samesame but different *~
22May2009. Today is another work day, just like every other day of the work week. But today is different from 2 days ago. A few of the colleagues were given the axe. So while work continues the same way, things will be very different.
Even for myself. While i am glad to hear i am still wanted, i was VERY disappointed i did not get the position i thought i would. And worst still, knowing that the only other person who could do that position is not doing it, and then i am not chosen to do it, it just makes things very painful.
And while many will say that i should be grateful i kept my job, and no doubts about it, i have higher expectations deep down. I guess its not wrong for pple to have expectations, because i feel thats what pple work for. And disappointments always come when expectations are not met. I feel this is some kind of good disappointments because it means we are hungry for success and achievement, thats y we are expecting something and when that something doesnt happen, we are disappointed.
I never tot i will be so affected but the truth is i am...even now. I dunno when i will get over it, if ever. I guess until i really get to where i want, i will not forget what happen.
VERY DISAPPOINTED

~* Retrenchment!! *~
Like i said in my comments, unless something drastic crops up...i will most probably not be updating my blog....and with this entry...u will see the DRASTIC and DRAMATIC event thats unfolding in my life right now!
My company is re-structuring and along with it, cutting manpower and trimming 'fats'.As such, they are going through a retrenchment exercise and no one is spared! Everyone is analysed and discussed to see if one has a future/potential in the organization.
So from today till Friday, heads will roll and tables will be packed. We have to go and meet our director 1 by 1 and she will tell us whats the future for us. Some of my colleagues went in already and were offered new roles. The rest of us are just in the office waiting for our turn to get called in. No work is done and atmosphere is so bad. Really trying times man....
I guess at this stage, we are all more or less immune to watever decisions that will come our way. The worst thing about all this is the wait. We have been waiting, waiting, waiting. Ever since our CEO dropped the bombshell in late Jan that the company will be restructuring and cutting headcounts, i think we are just waiting for this to happen. And now that we are finally at this stage, i really hope all of us will know our fate sooner rather than later.
Good luck to all my colleagues. Its been a pleasure. Thanks for the wonderful experience, whatever happens the next 2 days, i will remember all this good and bad times!
