Do I love my job?

The other day one of my colleague saw this plant on my table, she loved it so much & asked how long I've been planted this? I stalled for a while, had a deep thought then told her, "It's been there since I worked here and ... yes, it's been 2 & a half years."

Yes, I've been working here for 2 and a half years, never realised time flies like rocket! My longest ever job since I graduated from uni and I've never expect myself to stay in one company for such a long time. I tend to jump from one company to another when I find out I have fully absorbed the knowledge that I'm supposed to learn from that particular company. In another word, I tend to jump & hunt for better opportunities & better pay of course.

How could I stay with PH for that long? The credit goes to Anita, she's the best boss ever & never stop teaching me new knowledge within the industry, I've learnt a lot from her! Everytime when I'm bored with my works and thought I've enough knowledge to leave the company, she gives me new tasks / assignments, it's just like another new phase for me to learn, that makes me change my mind and stay with her again. For example, when Nora was in Laos for 2 weeks, she suggested a cross training for me, let me do all Nora's works & I must admit that I enjoyed doing it.

In fact, she's giving me much freedom in my job, she's kind of handling over the entire administrative system within the department to me, I sort of having the rights on her behalf.

A lot of my colleagues come & go, they joined & left PH, have done too much farewell parties for them. When being asked when is my turn, I do not know. Seriously, I know I need to move on ... it's just the matter of time.

A little tactic from PP while you feel bored & started to hate your current job:-

Stare at the mounds of works in front of you & murmur the following 'migic words' repeatedly until you feel better:-

I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ... I love my job ...

Feeling better?
Alright ... Now, get back to your work! You would love your job!
