Semi-work at home
Yesterday was my first day being an office girl - though our office is only at my boss' house and I will only report there 2-3 days a week and will start at 2pm and ends at 5pm, I still can't help but grumble. Ugh! I hate the way I see and think of things.
I should be thinking of positive things. Pedro, my boss who's a year younger than me, is super kind and gracious to me since day one. He even bought me a macbook and a desktop so work would be easy for me.
For everyone's information, I worked at home for the last 2 years. Everything was busy for me on ny first few months at Midas. It was just me and my former boss, Mel, are working for Midas Manila. And then Pedro who's a son of one of our top bosses in Asia, entered the company 3 months after I was hired. And then Mel resigned and build his own concert promotions company few months after. So Pedro took over Midas Manila and became my boss. Everything was fine under his supervision because we sold our shows to other promoters - Boyzone, Pentatonix, Youtube fanfest, MLTR and Lifehose. That means no work for me to do that made me feel worthless and unused. I'm receiving wages I didn't even worked hard for from the company. The only task assigned for me before was to post something on our social media.
And then December of last year when Pedro decided to take charge of our own shows. So we did Russel Peters, Richard Marx and my favorite Little Mix on the first quarter of this year. During that time I was busy and felt my position in the company. I became the employee I was hired for - a multimedia artist. I did graphics, posters, billboards, TVCs, magazine, print ads and other stuffs again.
And then we went on hiatus with shows again. Midas did Engelbert here in Manila but the company sold the show to the venue so we didn't worked for it. Now we are waiting for Pentatonix in Manila. As well as working part-time for other international shows. (PS: I am faithful with my company right now, and I asked permission to my bosses if I can work part-time, and they said yes! God gave me the best bosses in the world. Thanks Sir Nige and Peds! 😙)
As I remember, I mentioned on my previous blog that my colleague from Singapore left the company so I took one of her responsibility for the company. So far, so good. Been trying to learn and work hard for a nee assigned job for me. To be very honest, it's really hard for me to adjust since my strength is in media and digital arts. But I thank the Lord for giving me the opportunity to maximize my skills, specially on the level of communicating with other people (not to mention foreigners) which is seariooouusslllyy my weakness.
I may complain in a lot of things right now, but one thing's I'm sure of... I'm learning and enjoying. Enjoying the challenges that will help me grow not just in profession but also in life. Deep!! Hahaha. Seriously, I'm discovering something in myself right now and I'm happy that I somehow overcome my fears and awkwardness with people. And whenever I complain, that means I'm focus and proud of what I am doing.. you know, for the sake of complaining lang! Me and my papansin self!haha
I praise God for new opportunities He's continiously blessing me. I really don't deserve the job I'm having right now, but He keeps on sustaining me. I pray that I manage my time right and won't let affect my work schedules with my spiritual walk and time with the Lord. And mostly, that God may be honored and be glorified in all the works I will do. Thank you Jesus!
IN ALL THINGS,
GOD SHOULD ALWAYS BE GLORIFIED!
