| In the beginning of 2009, I got the bad news from my boss who said my performance didn't meet her expectation, and extended my probation to the end of January. It totally affect my confidence on work and seriously reviewed myself at the new position. Up to now I still don't know whether I can pass the probation or not, but it's so close to know the result when I return to work on Saturday. It's my first comment from boss who isn't satisfied my working performance. Previous bosses were appreciated what I did in their companies. It makes me to rethink whether I'm over-confident on my working abilities or not. No doubt that I'm not a perfect employee to be done everything my boss said. No matter what the result will be, I did pay extra attention and effort on my work in this month to keep my position. I don't wanna be a loser to be laid off by that reason, even though it maybe their execuse to cut headcount when business is getting worse. On the another hand, it's time to figure out some continancy plans if they really lay me off in 2009: Plan A: Find another similar job in the accounting field. It's the common decision to the unemployees. Certainly I won't cut my salary to meet the job market to bid the offer. It's unreasonable even though it maybe the fastest way to get the offer under poor economy. My salary isn't really high already and I can't accept the new employer to give me lower salary. It means that you are not worth to get the reasonable salary and imply that my working performance is really poor. Plan B: Run my own business. That's my long long dream and the reason why I studied in accounting. In 2009, it's really good time to start up the business when you have the great and brand new idea. I believe I found it and just bought some books to know more how to run "this" small business. I know I found the right direction and what I need to prepare are my knowledge and how to source and sell the products to potential customers. (Plan A and B can work in process in the same time) Plan C: Work overseas. I have another dream that is to study or work overseas. When my family was able to let my brother to study overseas only, I told myself that someday I can use my own money to live and work in UK for 2 years. Certainly it's risky because I may not find the jobs in accounting field in UK when the Europe economy is also getting worse. To maintain the living cost I may find the waiter or catering job in UK that can't meet my want. No matter what's going on next, it's the year to CHANGE to adopt the new era. If we don't equip ourselves rapidly, we may be the loser in next minute, or lose our jobs and opportunities to win over our competitors in market. To be future winner or loser, it depends on your decision right now. | | |
| 筆者同大家一樣, 經常會遇到 唔同嘅困難, 有次有位我好敬佩嘅前輩 (佢係廚師)喺我仲係學生, 第一次清袋時 ($20萬)同我講咗以下嘅故事: 當人遇到困難時, 呢个世界只有3种人, 一种係蘿蔔, 一落滾水就变軟, 再滾耐Ｄ爛埋tim; 另一种好Ｄ, 係雞蛋, 原本好脆弱嘅外表同內心, 滾兩滾內心变得又有彈性又堅強; 最後一种呢? 係普洱茶葉!!! 佢唔怕滾水, 越滾越好, 甚至改变滾水嘅味道, 將問題变成優勢!! 味道芳香!! 呢段說話對當時嘅我有莫大震撼力, 我一直放喺我內心深處.......... 筆者一直大步大步咁征服一个又一个嘅困難, 都係靠呢Ｄ故事支持我, 我一直相信一个人最後成功定失敗, 同運氣毫無關係, 分水嶺係你用乜心態去處理問題 !! 你放棄?你勇敢面對? 定想辦法英雄造時勢? 既然無辦法就得去想辦法, 無几會就得去為自己制造几會吧!! 不要輕易咁講無可能, 不要相信自己只會平凡!! 共勉之!! | | |
| I have had a dream to Europe since I was a kid. From TV programme and magazines, saw lots of beautiful photos of France, Iltaly, Austria, Switzerland...etc. Before several years, the dream was still far away from me because I haven't enough money and ability to realise. "Ability" is different meaning to me because I don't wanna join tour to get there and just take some photos only. I prefer to plan the trip by myself even though it's time consuming. But, I believe it's the process to learn more about different counties' culture, and more importantly more about myself. It's like the test to understand my problem solving skill, AQ, EQ, maturity and independence. It's more than the trip I expect. I wish I can get what I want after the trip, and realise my dream. In July my friend and I had the same trip of destinations to visit - Eastern Europe. We select Austria, Czech and Hungary and will visit from 20 Sept to 1 Oct 2007, totally 12 days. The first difficulty is to take annual leave. We both just change the job recently and also the period is in the high season to take leave for other colleagues because it's included in Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. We only take 6-day leave to get 12-day leave finally. Luckily our annual leave was approved and then find some travel agencies for airtickets. At the end we got 2 return tickets to Vienna via Doha. The ticket price is reasonable, around $5k incl. tax. Although it's not the perfect tickets, it saves us $2.5k and we can spend this money on 5-day European East Rail Pass (EUR$197). The third difficulties are to book hostels, train and bus. Up to now we book hostels in Vienna, Salzburg and Prague, and waiting the replies from hostels in Cesky Krumov and Budapest. We expect all hostels and transport arrangement can be done before mid-August. | | |
| In 2007 it's my longest holiday from 24 to 27 May, totally 4 days. In Easter holiday I still need to work to complete all audit stuff to meet the deadline at my last day in previous company. I am glad that I can meet the schedule and hand over all the stuff to the staff who replace me. From the last job to my new employment, I just have 1 day to take rest.. Therefore, it's really my vacation that I can stop working and do something I like. The time is gone fast. I will start working tomorrow, and let me summarize what I did in these days. On Thu I played squash with a friend and I remember it's my second time to play that after 5 years ago. That time I played with my first girlfriend at PolyU and she bought the racquet to me. The sport is so exciting and triggles me to play it again in near future with friends. On Friday, I took my first sick leave in new company, and saw a doctor in afternoon. Even though I got sick, it doesn't affect my interest in stock market. 3328 is one of my favourite banks in China and believe that it will keep growing fast in coming years. $8.3 is a reasonable price to me, although its price may go down later. I don't care because I treat it as long term investment. If the price really falls down, it's no doubt that my second purchase will be done. On Sat I studied with a friend at CityU. Well, I didn't study hard after the end of first semester. I believe that I need to study harder to get the OK result in June. Today, the last day of holiday, I listen 3 CDs borrowing from libaray, and finish to read a book about accounting. Finally my mother and I wen to watch the drama called "From the sunset to sunrise" at HK Cultural Centre. The three stories have the same main theme - the reaction to boundary. It's meaning stories and impress me so much. | | |
