End of the three wks of torture..

Friends around me wld had heard bout me bitching bout my job especially so for the past 3 wks. Those who hasn't wld also know that i wasnt happy in that place. Finally, this friday marks the end of the 3 wks of pure torture.

The actual reason is because our line manager left our group leaving us with 3 perms and 3 contract staff at which 1 of the perm enter our grp later than me and the other 2 contracts are also newer than me. In other words, we were left to die. They said that our grp will has an increase of headcount to 9 from the current 6 because of the workload. So you shld be able to understand hw hard a time we had trying to do most stuff. Hence being over work and underpaid.

For the past 2 wks, we spend more than 10 hrs in the office each day trying to clear what shit we have. It was tough as we were inexperience. Our temporary head was over stress and hence did not has the best temper for the first 2 wks. We all had to take cover and put up with the flare. At the same time, we had to encourage each other and push each other when one is feeling dishearted and felt like giving up.

I almost sunk into depression on the 1st week and i was seriously depress and wanted out very much. But i cldnt bring myself to do it. Because i know the rest of us will die very badly. Life was bad to the point that i dread going to work yet i know i have to. So bad to the point that i wanted to just find an empty cubicle and cry my heart our. And sometimes, i'm glad that the windows are not able to open out otherwise i will be in the headlines already. Life was bad. And now we all hope that it will be better because our new line manager is coming on monday along with another new perm staff.

We, out small grp of 6 was full of laughter and jokes the whole day. We did our work but we talked, scream and laugh all the way till the point that we were so tired frm laughing too hard. The burden is finally off. We went for a celebration lunch at Pizza Hut being all girls and love chessy stuff, we had the chessy pizza. We had a long lunch and by the end of the meal, the food had already been digested as we were all laughing and laughing and laughing. It was the best day of the 3 wks that we had.

I learn one thing frm this 3 wks. That is, the more stressed or angry one is, the harder he/she should laugh. A big laugh cld really really release all the pent up frustration we have inside. And we will definetly feels better and less angry. Thats why i said that i have great colleagues who are there to squeeze a laugh out of me when i almost break. There are times that i got irritated by one/two of them but there will always be the other to ease the tension. Hence, i'm still here despite all the complaints i'd make.

Finally, able to relax now. Went for a Ktv session w some other contract staff just now. It was the funniest ktv session i ever had. Laugh, laugh, laugh all the way. By eleven, i was already half dead and i just sink into the sofa and watch the world go past.

I had fun today. Since a long long time. Hope i can wake up for memtoring tmr.

Nites.
