About Love and Hate

Noo..am not talking bout lovey dovey relationship...but about the usual bitching of my daily life.. ...haven't bitch bout work for quite some time..so i think why not now...after all, we're still in new yr mood anyways...what the heck!!

10 Things Why i hate my job

1. Attending my weekly sales meeting. This is where i got beaten up by my boss to a pulp..Practically every week
2. Getting off my bed every damn morning
3. Making sales calls..gosh i just hate it
4. Appointment with an ignorant customer...plus arrogant ones...
5. Receiving early morning sms's from my boss, requesting a daily update on each transaction...especially end of the quarter
6. Problematic partners intending to offload their issues on me..WTF!! Heck, if i can solve your problem..better i run your company then..not my fu*kin problem dude..
7. Working with other department...this can be very trying for an impatient person like me...
8. Can't stop smoking when meeting with clients and partners...I had a chest pain 2 weeks ago after non-stop smoking during discussion with a partner...
9. Credit card and phone bills by end of the month. I'll be wondering where did i kept my receipt...Crap
10. Always coming back late from work..then couldn't find any parking space around the apartment..

10 Things Why i love my job

1. My paycheck..hahahaha....what else
2. Meeting with new and interesting people..minus the arrogant and a**hole ones
3. Learning new things in life and work by being with brilliant and high performing people
4. Growing these local enterprenuer to the next level, nurturing and watch them mature...Its worth more than a thousand paychek
5. Getting a pat at the back by the boss..."You did a good job" Worth more than a lifetime of sales meeting...Heck...beat me up more man...

I can only get 5, but these 5 worth the pain and grit i have to endure...For me, the money is just to pay all the bills..but the main satisfaction of my job is to see those people benefitted from my contribution. It really gives me the whole perspective of my own existence. Last year I attended the 7 Hab*t of High*y Effe*tive Ppl course. They gave me 3 books to read on and CDs to listen. As usual, I was struggling to finish the book so opted for the CD instead. While listening in the car, one particular chapter in the book mentioned bout love..." Love is not a noun..but a verb. You need to work for it to gain love..to be loved" That sentence really hit me in the head..Now i learnt that I dun love my job coz I haven't work on it to achieve it..I didn't have the same passion and interest as my boss. Same goes to relationship. One have to love somebody to be loved..Its a verb...Get it!!
