Different Path

Salam.

Pernah tak korang terfikir yang korang akan kerja lain dari apa yang korang tengah study dulu? Mestilah takkan. How about now? Ever thinking to change your career path? I never think doing something which is not related what I studied. Never cross my mind.

But after almost 5 years working, I changed my mind. I got a friend who has degree in Science Computer and now she's working at Real Estate unit, arranging branches, new properties of the company. No related education background to what she's doing right now. Of course there is no specific reason for a person to choose different path but it has related to do with minat and kecenderungan or just because that is the only job that being offered that so they just go with the flow.

Basically I think it depends dekat minat masing2. Degree is just a stepping stone sebab if you are not interested what your doing believe me you won't enjoy your working life (part of it). If everyday you feel nak muntah to repeat the job then get out of there. But my friend said if you want to change your career path do it while you are young. How young is young? Before 30 years old and jangan pulak pegi tukar keje which is totally different except you want to make your own business or run a family business. There are works that maybe you just a need a tiny small related experiences or education or senang nak belajar that you're interested in doing. 

Think about it again :)

P/S: I still love what I am doing and I have no intention to change my path yet. 

Long Time No See

It has been almost 3 months (or it is more than that??) i have not update anything in my blog. I am in good health (alhamdulillah) but bz working on the group accounts which i have to present to the bosses (i hate this part) next Monday. It is a new thing and a challenge for me. A bit struggle but so far I can take the pressure.

Working in commercial is different from audit (duh!!). Sometimes rasa mcm so what??later the auditor will clean my mess..hahaha..tapi rasa tak baik jugak kan. I felt that before. Malu je kalo salah buat. Rasa macam tak layak jer kerja even dah ade degree.

By the way, my higher management mostly are foreigners. From the boss to executive level. From UK, H.ong, Russian, Mexico and even India. Bukan satu Malaysia dah but dah jadik One World. Working with foreigner can be hard sometimes. Sometimes i don't understand what my boss is talking about. But to make it easier angguk je la. Not because I don't understand English but he talks fast and the 'slang'...pekat lain mcm..

Uh..uh..it is about time for me to leave the office. I'm alone skarang. Nak balik. Bye...

New Year and New Life

Whoa. Murah rezeki juga yer diri ini. After only few interviews (few ker? macam banyak jer) at last I got a job offer. Alhamdulillah. Praise to Allah. Ini semua dikatakan rezeki. Salary higher than previous job thats for sure. Situated near to my old office. Walking distance from Pavillion less than 5 minutes n from KLCC pulak 15 minutes. Ok la tu kan. Makin panjang kaki ini nak pergi Pavillion.

Btw, I'm not doing audit anymore. Phew! Lari dari audit memang dah lama nak. Baru sekarang dapat. Sekarang buat account. Issue cheque, PV n etc. Still byk kena belajar. After few months tak kerja otak jadi blur kejap.

My new job tak boleh cakap ape2 sangat. Baru 2 days including today. Better than last office I hope. Internet connection ade. Tapi tak boleh connect to Facebook. Whoaa!! Yahoo!, Gmail, google still accessible. OK lah kan.

Kelas start yesterday. Penat! First day job and first day class. Tapi tidur lambat juga last night. Bergayut di telefon. Hahaha. My new favorite past time :p. This sitting just 1 paper je. Lesson learned. Tak boleh nak tanggung 2 papers if buat part time. Besides that kena jimat. Banyak debts sebab goyang kaki dulu.

So my life sekarang =










Right now tgh lunch but tak makan today. On diet. My weight dah naik balik. Adoi!! Penat turun. Nevermind. Joging, exercising kena rajin. Ade pemangkin. Boleh lah.

Hurm...have to go now. Kerja berlambak. Tak nak balik lambat. Nak rest kat rumah.

A bit here..a bit there..

"Alia, kalo VRI bleh release esok bgtau la. Bleh akak print siap2 pagi2 esok"
"Dah bleh la kak. Everything dah clear. Tapi akak check la in case alignment lari ke"

Minggu ni jer 2 accounts released. Fuh, lega tak yah cakap la. Last minute punya account. I was so stressed last week. 3 accounts FYE Dec.Supposedly, 31 July kena submit but nasib baik sgt2 bleh extend 6 days. Manager tak yah ckp la. Skit2.."Alia, where is ur ......""Alia, can I review ur file".

I was almost breakdown. I don't mind working until 11pm but I don't have transport. Marini was kind enough to sent me back a few times. Last week almost everyday I reached home 12midnight. keje, keje, keje...work, work, work...

But to tell u the truth, I was tension but I don't think sampai tak bleh rehat. I went to lunch as usual, a bit of chatting, Facebooking. Actually k gak like this. But not frequent sgt. Nnt boleh pengsan.

Some may wonder why at the end of the month baru nak submit. The account should have ready 3 months after the yr end. Tapi biasa la, client..1 bulan baru nak bg. If u get client yg memahami, yg bleh corporate then, it will be no prob. But wat about client yg when u tak push tak buat. At the end of the day, yg kena auditor. Yg bg account lambat..client. Fair tak? Takkan..

I have to wait for few weeks je lagi.. Then I 'm done here. No more PKF..no more Marilyn, inspector gadget, Vincent (these are the best part)..N this time I will ensure...NO TURNING BACK!!

Die Dtg Lagi

Kringg..kringg..

"Hello. Alia ade org from ___SB dtg bagi doc. Dtg depanlah ambil."
"OK".."aaarghh"..kopi tertumpah. Inilah akibatnya terlalu nervous (nervous ker??) Bila dgrnya someone come to send doc from this co I noe who is that person.

So, berlari-larilah saya di dalam office menuju ke depan. Apa motif berlari pun tak tau.

Sampai kat depan receptionist bagi envelope. Aik knape die ade lagi..ngatkan dah pergi after drop the doc.

"ade kena sign mane2 tak?"
"tak de"
"Lari ker?" "aah..byk keje la"
"owh" dan die pun bgn menuju ke pintu kluar..

Bila samapai di tempat rupa2nye signing pages ker. Kena buat attestation ni. K.Ina mintak hantar kat Joan coz she will send it together with others. Bila nak jumpa Ms Joan lalu lift.

"eh, tak turun lagi?"
"hurm..tak. Lambat la lift ni"sambil jawab senyum2 malu..alala..comelnyer :)
"jgn guna lift yg ni. Guna yg sbelah". Padahal sama jer. disebabkan tak de modal nak borak, kluar lah ayat yg tak logik.

Balik from Ms Joan punya bilik, Marini tegur. "Alia dah tersenyum. Tadi tension jer. Nak tegur pun takot. Siap berlari2 dalam ofis"

Wheewww...yeah..he changed my mood. Just like that. One super short meeting can change my entire day :) thanks to him..hopefully will meet him later.

I resign

Dengan bangganya saya telah meletak jawatan minggu lps..nk update last week tak berkesempatan coz I was so bz..everyday blk lambat until nak update pun tak menyempat.

I have no backup job..so I am actively searching for a job..kalo tak de nmpk gayanya ade lah yg makan pasir next month..InsyaAllah dpt..

:)

11 months ago....

Height:159cm
Weight:49kg

Last week (30 June 2009)

Height:159cm (still the same)
Weight:______kg (a few kilos bertambah)

Went to the same place as 11 months ago to do audit. But this time I went alone. Sungguh membosankan. Met the same faces.

12 pm sumthing..

A: Tak pergi lunch ker? Takkan diet kot.
Me: Belom lagi pukul 1. Jap lagi la.
A: Awak dah nampak...gemuk skit (darn!!)
Me: Ramai ckp macam tu.
A: Tak byk skit jer. (Ayat cover ceh..)sbb suka ati kot.
Kwn A: Sbb nak kawin kot (wow!! assumption tak bleh blah)
Me: Tu lagi jauh. Calon pun tak de.

A dan kwnnye gelak...and I walked away from the place back to my laptop.

I was so embarrassed for wat both of them said. (malu2 kucing..hihi..)..dari awak tu yg kecik. tak padan ngan umur nak ckp org.huh!!

I gain weight not because I'm getting married nor I am 'suka ati'.

Hectic

Last week was tiring. Almost everyday ade je aktiviti yg melibatkan peluh. Monday training netball, wed and thurs training bowling, fri netball lagi and sat training futsal and bowling tournament. Everything because IAFG (Inter Accounting Firm Games) 2009. But bowling jadik reserve je. Pakai kasut jer then I walked here and there tgk score co lain.

Last sat I will say it was fun. For the very first time, we hang out together outside office. Thought not all of us managed to come, however we can do it again next time.

The bowling tournament was held at Sunway Pyramid (not sure wat is the name of the bowling alley). 15 audit firms participated in the game. The game started at 10.30am.
Overall, our team did quite well but since there is no scoreboard therefore, I am not sure how was our performance. And thanx to our supporters yg dtg (compare to last year thn ni ramai)edna, ahmad, CK, Pei Yee, Chee Hong, Mr Lai. the best part was bila dpt mkn free lunch.

That evening, we went to Cheras for futsal training. At first main pakai jeans coz malas nak tukar. Unfortunately, akibat berebut bola, jeans terkoyak. Luckily kat lutut. Later I will send for a repair.

After changed the pants lagi 1 incident happened. My ankle terseliuh. Pun gara2 berebut bola. Not my fault tau. K.salina nak rebut bola from me. Sakit gile. N now my ankle tgh bengkak.

After the practice we went to PapaRich at Tmn Tasik Pemaisuri. Lama jugak kat situ. Byk sesi luahan berlaku. Psl org ni mcm ni n etc. K.ana terpaksa mendengar luahan junior2 dia. As a reminder to us, jadikkan lah kisah yg berlaku kpd rakan2 jr yg lain bila jadik senior.

I have to bear the tiredness as the schedule will be tighter this week as the Netball match will be next Tues on the 7th July. All the best to us!

Thing That Make Me Think

Lunch..at last!!..the moment that I have been waiting for..lapar lorh today...while walking back to the office I received a call...a call that I have been waiting..dpt ker tak hny panggilan itu yang mampu memberi jawapan..

"may I speak to Ms Alia pls"

"Yes speaking"

"R u available to talk right now?"

"Yes I am"

Bla..bla..bla...

"OK, so bila Cik 'Alia boleh dtg ambil appoinment letter?"

That is all about it...I went to Bank Islam last week for an interview as Customer Service Officer..if u wonder what the position is all about..ala..org yg korang nampak wkt pergi bank yg jaga branch tu..n I got it..at Ampang Branch (thought kena campak luar KL.hahahaha..di sini juga la rezeki ku)

Actually I am not very keen to work as C.S.O bcoz tak de kena mengena dengan account..even I hate my current job it doesn't mean I want to leave it behind entirely..Marini was shocked..others biasa jer but most of them said I shouldn't accept the offer, think about what I want..komen Ruzanna yang paling panjang (hahaha..u make me think)..and some said take the appoinment letter n see what they are offering me..

During the interview, the interviwers (2 of them) considered me as being strict and garang..huh!!kasar I can accept..strict?? They even told me I was not up to their standard..teruk jugak rasanya kena dengan diorang..and I thought with that kind of responds and it is already 1 week after the interview memang ingat tak dapat..but this is what people call rezeki..yg kita tak sangka itulah yang dtg..alhamdulillah..

But now I am still considering it..ayah said go for it..umi said it is up to me..me??30%, 70%..tak kot..byk kena fikir but the possibility for me to accept memang ade..I always made decision last minute..ckp tak nak tup2 buat pulak..hehehe..will update later either I accept it or not..

Rimas....

tetiba today I feel so rimas...argh...work loads..my sisters' things...gosh..a few days to go before I'm going to Melbourne to see my beloved sisters but things still hvn't done yet...makin lama makin byk la brg yg kena beli..I think btol la my bag will full with their stuff...

A lot of things that I'm thinking right know...should I apply new work? There are a few vacancies that I am considering right now..nk update resume yg malas ni..money always become an issue to me lately...coz now I am broke buying them stuff...another reason to change work...

but hey...since I will b taking a week off I'm quite ok with it...so far I still can handle this pressure at work...think again about work...I just answered 'How much u hate or love ur work' quiz..and the answer....ehem..I TOTALLY HATE my job..hahaha...I think its time for me to apply for a new job eventhough mayb middle of this yr there will b another assesment but the motivation is not there anymore...if you ask me do I like what I'm doing right now my answer would be Im fine with it..neutral..neither hate nor like...but I hate the env here...the people..urgh...if u read my post about the meeting mayb u have some idea wat's going on here...

Do pray for me ya for my future..and everything go well as I plan...amin...
