Its finally the long weekend.. long and keenly awaited coz the long daily commute means this silly one needs to catch up on Zzzz. One week on the new job. The old job was pretty rojak, which meant that i had combined surface understanding on a wide scope. The new job is more administrative, with a large base of "clientale" which we are servicing. Hence, workin fast, accurate and smart is the way to go. Moi, is of course struggling.. and found moiself to be lacking..coz i've not done purely administrative portfolios and is non too meticulous. Was after all a "Jack of all trades, Master of none"..
I was task to send out a series of emails, of which i made a few mistakes.. left out some.. send to wrongly. Kinda not good an impression to make. I was struggling with a long winded method and i took some time before i learned a more accurate and simple way to do the task. The young colleague taught..phewz.. which basically more accurate, effective and time saving. Wellz, this few days have shown that moi has loads of techniques to learn ( haiz, at moi advanced age somemore.. ;p). Sure hope i can master the requisite skills and techniques to handle the job.. for i have a nagging thought that my direct sup can be none too forgiving of errors.
My inadequacies in handling the job and bosses aside, other factors like quiet environment, non front line customer service, transferable long term skill, longer lunch, 5 day week.. ability to work from home are draw factors absent from the old job. So, this moi has to put on the learning hat and positive learning attitude to learn from the seniors, so as to achieve the objective of colouring up the cv in the new field.. aiz. Buck up .. buck up..;p
