Must report to the security that they are ineffective. Suspicious packages always appear in my office when I'm not in.
But I shall overlook it since the packages come in mocha form. (Nat & Kim: We must go to that Chocolate Buffet soon, wokays.)
Have I mentioned how much I love my colleagues? Well, most of them. Most of the time anyways. *wry smile*
And I totally adore my boss (plus her kid too)!
Factors which are contributing to my dragging feet about a change of environment. Another factor of course is my hazy idea about an ideal alternative environment. Yet another is how my Boss would support flexible scheduling should I further my studies.
Has my bond ended that I'm having all these thoughts? Well, no. Since contrary to popular perception, I wasn't bonded. I have however, clocked in enough MSP (Minimum Service Period) to move around in the same organisation. Which frankly, doesn't seem all that attractive.
In fact the attrition rate can be downright depressing. A cluster colleague rang me up a few days ago to say goodbye. And I was sad thinking he was jetting off to yet another far-flung place when I can't really figure how to best enjoy the weeks of leave I have.
Was with great shock when he clarified that he was leaving the organisation, since he's a gung-ho fella who's just joined barely a year ago. Now I have one less friend whom I truly enjoy the company at cluster meetings.
Rummaged through my incoming mail and found the card he said he had sent to expound on his leaving. Looking at his gorgeous photo-card made me miss him already!
"Kor" CC might be leaving too. Though I'm happy for the reasons should he get to leave, that would be a major blow. He contributes to the preservation of my sanity when things get crazy.
The new year will be blowing in great winds of change. It's already prickling goosebumps of trepidity, though.

1 mulled it over:
i am of a very heavy heart lately. thoughts of leaving the organisation is weighing heavily on my brain yet like you, my colleagues are fine people with whom i enjoyed working with day in and day out.
but, as always...the BIG but has to make known its presence, some factors compelled me to prepare that resignation letter just in case the need arises and i have to make my move. very heavy to even lift that pen to write that letter not to mention handing it in.
for the 1st time since i started working here, my tears threatened to fall at the sheer predicament of a parent. i have always kept my emotions and feelings at bay when i'm dealing with them but today, due to sheer exhaustion of being pushed to the limit, i was that close to crying.
we'll see how long i can endure the org...*sigh*
you take care, ok, sweets? i'm always here should you need me. just a phone call away.
