”this morning.. i read the news abt flood in china etc etc
den i tot.. pple out there are so poor thing
here i am wonderin abt sucha stupid thing?
am i being silly?
when i hv pple so nice to me, but i choose to go?”

i wondered that out loud.

jen’s reply: if everyone is like you then there wont be rat race..

i’m minying. i will always be your simple minying.
i’m not someone who wanna climb any corporate ladder.
i’m not someone who wants to conquer the world.
honestly, i dont really care much abt career path.

you see, there are different pple in these world.
and as the saying goes – we are all unique individuals.

for me, i only wanted a job. of coz, i needed the challenge, the need to pick up new stuff.
but at the end of the day.. i just want to work in a familiar environment under a nice manager, with wonderful colleagues.

i like to move on. it hv been a good 7 years.
and if i dont.. i might be struck here forever.
i’m turning 30 in 2 years time.
shldnt i be brave and step outta my comfort zone?

its not abt monies or anything.
in fact, i asked for the same salary at the new company.
yes, it was really a matter of learning and moving on with life.

im very very touched by this episode. how much my bosses cherish & appreciate me.

struggle to reach a decision.
decision, decision, decision..

🙁
