i appreciated her understanding, really. she's the nicest boss in the world.
too bad the organisation is a screwed up one.
here are some snippets of conversation i had with her:
Grace Chan 3:26 PM
Hi Venus, are u free to chat?
Venus Ng 3:27 PM
yep - wassap?
Grace Chan 3:28 PM
I want to let you know that.. i have decided to tender next week. because after thinking it through i want to focus on my studies. im sorry to bomb you with this news.
Venus Ng 3:29 PM
ooooh dearieeeee meeee. wait i go faint first
Grace Chan 3:29 PM
OMG please dont faint.! i had a hard time making this decision and breaking it to you
Venus Ng 3:30 PM
trying not to faint
Grace Chan 3:30 PM
=(((((( i din want to just throw you the letter
Venus Ng 3:30 PM
i know it mustn't be easy for you
Grace Chan 3:30 PM
so wanted to tell u first because u're not just my boss. my friend also
Venus Ng 3:30 PM
and i always thought studying and working is crazy. aww i feel the same. so you're going to focus on studying?
sian - you are such a valuable member of this team
what if i give you more off-days?
like i will talk to ryan and give you more leave or what do you call, add in exam leave
don't worry about me - you have to think about your best interest
but i also duwan you to zao cause everyone loves you and you're basically awesome lah
Venus Ng 3:37 PM
could you do me a favor and reconsider?
with my following promises to you:
1. work part-time
2. pay will arrive on time
3. inclusive of exam leave
take the weekend to think about it and if you hold firm that you'd like to tuition and all, we'll talk about other things k?
you don't know (or maybe you know) how important you are to ME. haha but don't let that be a factor in your decision
then monday we chat
Okay thats the deal. Im supposed to go home and reconsider. She has totally swayed my feelings.
but it's not that i don't have faith in her, it's the management of this entire organisation who didn't put staff welfare as a factor in business handling.
they can just transfer funds here and there from each sister company and delay workers pay. i mean wth?!
but the conversation with her did make me realise my good work for the past year has paid off.
at least i feel appreciated by my direct boss and not the - burger king in the past.
and yes, this has boosted my confidence to spread my wings elsewhere, once i have graduated.
i wonder - why all of a sudden. could be a big sign for me to leave.
and, getting a job doesnt seem so difficult anymore - just whether i am keen.
the part time job at tai seng was totally god-given, i feel.
because it was totally unexpected.
and cute vincent (wavve F&B manager) came in to cheer us up a minute ago!
SO CUTE
i bet everyone can see that the social butterflies like us are dying in the caged up room.
HAHAH!
Okay. i cant wait to leave in 30 min time.
so long, byebye!
