job

* edited at 345pm

i start getting myself a career back in mid 2006. at that time i was just a beginner, trying to adapt working environment. is it a dream job: No. it was never a job of what i wish for, but i guess, i just need a bit of experience.
i don't mind traveling though. fyi, the distances from home is about 55 km a way, toll total of rm5 a way. salary wise: not much, but i never expected anything higher at that time since i was a fresh graduate.

by the mid of 2007, when ldp toll rises from rm1 to rm1.60, i start questioning my motive of working that far with no salary rise. plus, i just bought a new car, and i start feeling that i might not able to afford paying for petrols n tolls n hutangs with the salary. i always hv 0 savings.
then, i start involving in a business project that can give me a better income and has always been my dream job. by the end 2007, i quit the current job and concentrate on the project.

but the project did not happen. because of the major politic tsunami in 2008, the projects got stranded, and we the team are very2 dissapointed. it never occur to us that politics can affect our business plan.

pergi membawa diri, i start looking for a part time job around kajang and bangi. yes, part time. cause i thought at that time the project can still work and i'm also getting engage in mid of 2008. so need some cash.
part time pon, i was looking for a job involving food, since i'v the experience. so, in 2008, i have 2 jobs, a training facilitator at a spa in bangi for 3 days only (pressure kerja ni, mngmnt x bagi kerjasama langsung), then i change to the current one. the one i'm still working at, until now. and part time never happen. it's a full time job.

current job, work wise, i like very much. distance: very much in love. time frame: sangat2 x best, work on weekend, holidays. environment wise, biasa la.. jealousy and perasan superiority ada dimana2. though, this company produce massive production where 80% are for export market, this is after all a family business. i can work here for the next 30 years, doing the same thing, with the same post. i wont have the opportunity to get raise to manager level, no matter how good i'm at the work. get what i mean?!

even while i'm working at my current place, i had interview invitation by quite a numbers of companies: TESCO, AYAMAS, Nestle la (oh, nestle gaji ciput la) etc.. but my mind setting at that time is very not focusing on career. i'm getting married lah, pregnant lah, going for vacation lah.. etc

2009, had an interview with KFC in glenmarie. but have to decline because of the distance. another 50 km from home, is a no no.
2010, had another interview at bukit jelutong for a US based food company that will be shifting to olak lempik that very2 soon. still declining because of another 50 km distance.
2011, a request interview by a multinational company, Campbell. yes, soup campbell, prego, kimball sauce dsb itu. i want this so badly, but it is near jalan templer, a well known road for a very2 bad traffic.
i had a long chit chat with the HR an hour ago. she advice me to try and take the job, career wise. her advice, surprisingly was very2 comforting and encouraging.

a stepping stone for my career life perhaps... i might take it if i'm qualified. please2... do pray for me!
