DECISIONS, DECISIONS

Spoke with my boss about my career path and I'm glad I did. I really like her for I can be open and expressive and yet she'll not take it against me. She's somebody I like personally and would want to work with professionally.

I told her that my current post may not be my cup of tea although as of the moment, I'm really enjoying what I'm doing and although I know I still have to learn a lot of things, I'm very much willing to learn since everything here is very new to me.

I don't want to fail her and I don't want to push myself doing on something which is not really my forte. I'm holding this position for a year now and although I've handled different things and been successful in most of my projects, I'd rather be in a position wherein I will just be minding my own productivity and will no longer be handling people or be in a position which is dependent on the productivity of those people under me.

I've requested that I be transferred back to my old post since that's the most ideal job for me. After our talk, she immediately talk to the manager in charge to explore possible transfer. However, they don't have an opening for my rank only for junior officers and staff which I already know since I spoke with the same manager the day before and was told the same thing.

I just told myself to be more patient 'til an opportunity comes along.

Then, my phone rang and the Head of Card Centre was on the other end telling me that she's eyeing me to head the complaint management section she's planning to have. She's in the process of restructuring the Customer Service Department and she thought of me since it's really my background.

Wow! This is really something although on the second thoughts, do I really want to go back to Customer Service and am I really willing to handle complaints again... Decisions, Decisions...

It's an opportunity I don't want to miss.

I've always been like this, whenever somebody offers me to do a job, I don't say no. I take it. I don't want to regret later on. As usual, I give it a try so that I can tell myself that I've tried and can say if I like it or not... just like right now.

Life is really full of surprises.

As Forrest Gump would say it " LIFE IS LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHATCHA GONNA GET."
