I think, i am more than grateful to be myself.. I think i am such a blessed person.. Perhaps this is my luck.. i always take this place as my home.. a place which i am fully comfortable in..
It all begins on that day when i request to attend the corporate tax training.. and the next thing i knew.. was ms teh came to see my boss...it was a coincidence as i just came back from toilet and she saw me before she went in to see my boss... she pulled me to one side and ask me whether i have told my boss about my wanting to transfer.. i casually said i mentioned it to my performance manager during interim dialogue, that is before i got into national service...
After that, i was so scared when i saw ms teh and my two bosses are in the room discussing what i obviously know is on myself.. i never felt so nervous before in office, to the extent where my hands and legs are numb and i am actually trembling.. i was expecting ms teh to come and find me immediately after the meeting, but she did not, maybe after moved to my new place.. it is almost difficult to locate me, because i am too small in size anyway..
I went over to get some water and at the same time.. went to disturb auyong, i learn of the reason why many of them tendered their resignation.. i was quite shock when i know that it is due to one manager, who is actually quite friendly with me.. hmmm... maybe it is difficult to judge a person by its cover.. and we share our times in our jobs.. sitting on the floor in front of her cabinet.. whichever colleague, manager or even partner will not just walk past without noticing us... and we just sat there like that and chat for an hour..
my boss called me in a few minutes after return to my place.. she told me i can attend the training.. i was so very happy.. and she told me to think about it, whether i want a transfer or secondment... she told me at the first place that she would like to keep me and i respect her honesty and feel ever so blessed to gain her favor.. i told her my piece of mind as well, that although it was totally an unexpected event that i got transferred here, but i totally have no regrets at all... she seem glad of that comment of mine.. but it is true.. i learn a lot in the past one year, from a weak.. insufficient knowledge individual to an independent assistant consultant, who, very happily, managed to solve a few cases on my own this week in the absence of my senior.. maybe, i am better than i thought i really am.. boss said she may request for me to return to assist the department during peak period if i am with corporate tax in the near future, depending on the manpower in the department that year.. but isnt that always what i wanted? to achieve what i want in life and yet earn a bonus knowledge.. but i thought that it is not possible because that seem to make me belonging to neither here nor there..
and today, she called me in before i make a move to irb.. she wants my answer.. i told her, i decided to transfer.. but i will return every year between feb to april.. she was quite surprised.. i think she never expect me to conclude that.. but i told her that means my future boss, whichever it is, will have to know that i have such a duty and have to ensure the 3 months of mine are clear as i am quite concerned, i may not be able to juggle the work of two different departments at the same time.. she said it should not be a problem, i am pretty relieved.. i think she too.. seem pleased with my answer.. yes, i know that by belonging to two department.. it will be very stressful and tiring for me.. as i hardly have a free day in a year.. but at least, i have the best of both worlds.. which is pretty much an advantage for me..
I am ever so grateful to earn the respect and love of my bosses... i understand that my boss is pretty much a health conscious person.. but i like to think that, in one way or another, it is for me.. this year department's trip in november, it will be in an organic farm.. all vegan farm.. it is as if, it is meant for me.. or at least, i like to think that way.. hahahaha..
thank you so much my bosses..
but that does not mean when being in course, you will be totally free as.. i have to study for it!!! >.< .. so now, my weekend is so pack!!!! with income tax act and public rulings for those in corporate tax...
