Last week, I made a post about an opportunity that I let pass on purpose. If you missed it, click here.
So here’s the story.
I had an interview with Mr. President and Ms. Business Unit Manager. It went out pretty well. I failed to time it for the simple reason that I enjoyed talking to them. *good vibes* I find it a good experience talking to these people. I learn and gain something even in simple conversation like this.
So, some highlights of the meeting --- they are in fact inquisitive on why I left HP and Samsung.
These are strong companies, yes. But I have my reasons and I wish I could just keep them to myself but oftentimes, you just cannot flee and must give a tactful answer which I did. It’s a common knowledge that it’s a NO-NO to say something negative about your previous employers and employees right? I was creative enough to deliver my response in a positive manner. Anyway, I have nothing against these two companies. They’ve been so good to me. It was my choice to leave.
Why leave just like that?
Work is known as being fragile is actually a rubber ball. If something screws up, work will always bounce back. Work is just one aspect of my life. So as much as possible I don’t want to lose myself in work. When I’m in doubt, I just leave.
I work to live, not live to work. There’s a big difference between making a living and having a life. I'm a lifeaholic not a workaholic. Don't get me wrong, I am hardworking (go ask my former colleagues. haha) and I tend to burn myself with work because of being too passionate with my job. Take note, I'm a Virgo --- Perfectionist. High expectations.
I don’t want to just take anything that comes. It has to be something I love doing. If I do what I love, money will follow. It’s nice to get paid for being happy.
So, let’s see where will this lead me…If it’s meant, it will happen.
Call this luck, chance, fate, destiny, etc. but I want to name this a blessing. Late last week, I thought of seriously looking for a good job. I didn’t say it out loud *haha* just in my head and maybe some of my posts here (one or two maybe). I’ve also been vocal to Xave about my recent thoughts. After a day, I got a call from a long time friend. To make the story short, I had another interview today. Entirely different from my previous one (remember Ms. Manager? Haha) I don’t know, maybe my mind is so powerful. Whatever I think deeply, it happens. *wink* As if someone is hearing my babbles.
