My New Job

Whew new job is not always full of fun. Stressful? Yes. Challenging? Yes.
Let me tell you what happened in my first day.

Without giving you a FULL descpription of my new job I can give hints on how challenging and stressful it is.

1. The General Manager/CEO is very demanding.

2. I have 3 office staff in my department and all are fully loaded with tasks. Just 4 of us will work as a team to manage a group of at least 30 workers in our department alone.

3. One of the staff in my department( a senior staff) is BOSSY. Imagine her asking me petty things like "close the widow" and ' " give me the calendar" when in fact I am her direct manager and in charge of the department.

4. I worked from 8:30 in the morning until 10:00 in the evening. Well, the lunch break is 2 hrs. but the dinner break is only 30 mins. What a day.

5. I am the ONLY full time FOREIGN office employee. Imagine the language barrier since I cannot speak their language not to mention the the cultural differences.

6. Since I don't have a car I have to take a bus everyday.


7. I have to wake up at least 6:00 in the morning. But because i don't use to get up that early it is a big adjustment for me.

Well, can I last for a year? I hope so. The title of my job is so good but the responsibilities is not easy. But I pray that I can do this job pretty well for the glory of God. Yes. two years is enough.
