Working Woes

Have you ever felt that going to work is such a painful job????

I been feeling that recently. Not sure why... maybe been in this position for too long and I'm looking forward for new changes outside this world. Almost 4 years in my post and work seems to become very routine. Morale get even more demoralise when all your same group of graduate mates pay get higher while yours is still market fresh grad pay.

Been treating job like just normal daily chores... come here on PC... then slowly wait for time to past.
On and off listen to colleagues woes on their job... what are they feeling.

Like today.. Mr B told me that yesterday when he meet his customer, he get lots of idiot scolding for nothing related. I really can understand how he feel. Cos there are customer that really behave like they are the king, everyone should listen to him. It really made you very pissed off as we are just here to work, do they need to be so hash??
But no matter what, my philosophy " Customer are not always right, but they are always your customer"
These mean that no matter what we still need to endure, unless we decide to leave this environment.

Quote some customer misuse their authorisation;
1. Scold you becos when you are going to travel oversea to meet his colleague, he is not the first to be inform and was notify thru his colleague
2. Becos you are travelling, ask you help bring this and that to don't  know which of his friends as a gift
3.On and off never call him and concern him
4. Ask why you keep helping your other department colleagues to settle issues instead of accompany them for tea break [ps: issues are all related to customer company problem]
5. Demanding you to drive all the way from Jurong to AMK immediately just to pick up red dates for his good friend which work in Jurong
6. Etc

How do you feel working in this type of environment with all above issue happen again and again around you??

Haiz... sales job... tough life... but i could only say, since we decide to step into this line, no choice, we just got to endure.

All we had to think is " We work for the money... no matter how tough it is, at the end of the month you see $$ come in... that is the best"


Mood for today... kind of piss off... therefore just want to grumble abit in blog
