Okay. This morning another stupid guy called me and said he JUST saw my resume which I sent a week ago and he wants to offer me a job. So effective huh.
But I no longer felt sad. Hahaha. This time round, though I'm back to the same old building, same old department, I'm working in a different team. This team's work is so much more challenging, and I realised that I'm the only one in this team with my supervisor, who is the head of the team as well! Means now everything I do, I report directly to her, which was not the case last time, as my previous supervisor was not the head of the team I worked for, so my work is vetted through by her before submitting to the head. So I must say I'm pretty pressurised this time round.
I thought I would be doing the same old thing when I go back, but no! This time round, I'm so busy rushing the dateline for this project we are doing on that I had much much lesser time to browse through the Net. I don't feel like a temp anymore. I used to do those what temps are supposed to do, like filing, data entry, and being a runner for errands. This time round I'm doing what the perms are actually doing, so one of my colleagues whom I had known from the previous time I worked there teased me by saying I'm cheap labour and UOB is saving money because I'm doing work that temps aren't supposed to do -.-
I seriously think this is like internship this time round! Just that I'm earning a little more than interns do. The department is still almost the same, with maybe 50% of the people I don't know yet because they only came in after I went off previously. The ones I still knew really treated me very well, so that really made my days in the otherwise-super-duper-boring-and-stressful job. Lol. I grew closer to a particular colleague. Though she's maybe, uh, 26, 27? I can talk to her about anything under the sun lol. So I'm much happier now than previously, though I realised I'm more tired whenever I come back from work.
I learned a lot of stuffs this time round, though it's only a week, I felt I learned much more than the 7 months work. Like really. The supervisor now is much more knowledgeable than the previous, though the previous was much nicer <______________< I'm quite intimidated working under her, because the previous one working under her was scolded very badly by her everyday... T___T As you can guess, she's not very popular within our department xD
Well, a week has passed, but I found the job not as unbearable as last time. I'm surprised at it, because I was expecting the same monotonous pace, but it wasn't. My colleague said UOB will be a place to fall back on next time for a permanent job if I can't really find another one, but I doubt I wanna go back again.... T_T Seriously, it's more of the colleagues who are the main motivation for me to stay on in this job.
So, what have you realised? Public relations are very important.
Come to think of it, I may well consider human resources next time as my permanent job. Hmmm.
