YOU LOSE SOME... YOU WIN SOME

Yesterday was a "not sooo good day " for me at work.... a month ago, i applied for a Junior Trainer Position in my account, Virgin Blue, a position i've always set my eyes on the moment i joined the account, and the only position i'm interested in.... so after a gruesome exam of ms office application (the exam was almost 3 hours long) and a demo that was like a talent portion in a beauty pageant (bec the other 2 applicants did something outrageous ... one did a dance number and another a bartending exhibition) and almost a month of waiting, the cat is finally out of the bag.... it was the girl who did bartending exhibition who got the position, the more senior of all the applicants. I know i may sound bitter but one couldn't help but feel bad bec of office politics. Its true you wont get promoted unless you're close with the big bosses.... or at least trying to be close. Also, one couldnt help but concluded that bec she's more senior and a batchmate of the current trainer that really spells the difference right.



Well... since they've chosen a new trainer... time for me to move on and continue... i remember when i was trying to confirm the news with one of the Team Managers and couldn't get an answer, i half-joking told him " So what if they don't like me..... Magtatayo na lang ako ng sarili kong Training Group !" ... a remark that suddenly hit me on my way home. You see i've always putting my dream project "Training Workshop " on hold for the past few months. I remember that's the sole purpose why i purchased my laptop.... i've been asking for a sign if i should pursue this project because there was a time i felt i was going no where. I guess this is the sign i've been waiting for....



It's true i might have lost the Trainer position.... but i'm looking at it this way, its now a chance for me get back on track for my dream project so i can WIN SOME later on....



what do you think ???
