I am my own pride

Finally I received my pay check today. Although not as fat as many, nonetheless it felt shiok to earn my own money. Time to stock up on my skin care products. Been waiting long.

Work has been progressing very fast for me. In fact too fast that I am feeling the pressure. Kinda proud of myself and finally I can proudly say I start from scratch & that I climb my way up from the bottom. This also proves to my dad of what I am made up of. Even though he thinks I am such a princess and that I would not survive without all his wealth and that I cant take hardship, this prove that I can. To all those out there who think I am so stuck up and my nose sticking up there & that I probably dont know whats being in the dump, I can say been there done that. Whats the big deal?!

I am so proud of myself. I dont think not many people can be in my position. Easy to criticise me but hard to deal with it. Many thanks to everyone who have been real encouraging all these while to keep me going & reminding the reasons why I should not give up. Living the spirit of meimei.

Finally it hit my one month mark at Sakae Sushi & I can now proudly say I have just been promoted to be in managerial position. Shiok feeling! The power of uniform. Finally I am wearing an all black jacket. Feel real good about it cos I earn it. Though I am inviting much gossip about my fast climb in the outlet, I dont really give a damn cos noone can deny my compentency. I am way faster than many and I must say it is a good sign. Hopefully I am back to HQ by my 4th month.

It felt shiok to see my name for once in a different category. Usually in my weekly schedule, my name is underneath the section called "Trainee" right at the bottom of the paper. Then out of a sudden, my name is right below all the senior asst managers but above all the other junior asst managers right on top of the list. That means I am next in line right after all my shi fu who have trained me the entire month. Now I know the entire daily operation at the back of my hand within a month. Fast learner eh? It feels so good to see it on the top of the second tier. The power of hireachy?! Hopefully, I am confirmed soon cos thats when I am gonna bargain my pay. Sneaky!!

Despite all the discouragement from my parents, I am staying strong and believing in myself. This time I dont see it as fighting the battle against my parents but rather it is a challenge pose to myself. I am doing all these to prove to myself. Now I can proudly say I earn it my way right from the bottom. It aint easy at all but I am managing it.

So thats about my update on working life. Like what a friend used to encourage me "Life just gets better" and I believe in it now!
