Silence 1

The office is near to empty we are nearly 10 left. Our bosses are in Batangas, for their annual event, we would also be going to the place on Saturday (Company Outing). The temperature is so cold that i need to wear a jacket to make myself feel warm (as if there is something better?). There is an almost deafening silence, what I could only hear is my keyboard, the mouse so as my officemates'.

So far, I've been with my company for approximately 2 months and 3 days. And I still have the same corporate ignition that i need to fuel my work. The corporate jungle is a vast biodiversity of office animals occupying different levels and social status. Some kings the jungle, some do manage, some does supervising, but some like me supports and does the dirty work. Actually there is nothing wrong with that. I love the feeling of actually doing lots of work kaysa WALA. I don't have the power to complain since I'm just a pupae in this vast routined and naturally competitive dimension. Another reason i must not complain is that a lot of Filipinos my age can't get a decent job, hence they are unemployed.

For the four years I've been into college, we've been trained to be HR people. doing things like interacting with working people, with regards to their salary, their development, their careers, their personality, and how they will be able to venture into a new world (company). The last one is something I'm presently very engaged with. I don't know but since last week, I've been feeling this too much pressure already, I'm a teapot nearing its boiling point, but i think that would be for a long time pa. I believe I'm hearing an inner voice that's telling me otherwise (no! I am not suffering Paranoia), that I still need to analyze and evaluate.

To be continued...
