This part of my life is called: Catching Up with Life

This part of my life is called: Catching Up with Life


 

Well, it almost been a month since I resigned from work, and I AM LOVING IT.

And of course, since I have lots of time in my hand now at this chapter of my life, there are going to be some changes…

I missed my family, A LOT… This summer, I plan on spending it with them…

I missed my friends too… lalo na ung mga kababata ko sa Manila… so don't be surprised if almost every day, andun ako. It's just that I missed you guys. I missed bonding, and playing basketball with you all.

Miss ko na din mga blockmates ko. A couple of days ago, I went to UST to grab tickets for a modeling event, and since I was within the location, I sms'ed my best-bud-from-college, Isa to see if we could meet up. Buti na lang lunch nila ni Christie. So aun, hangout saglit near Astoria st. kwento kwento hahaha. I sure miss the old times. I think it's about time na we arrange another block get together event. Gusto ko ung swimming and overnight… sana pwede ulit resthouse nila gem nyahaha!!

What hasn't changed since I left work?

One thing that I hated about myself ever since getting a job was that I gained weight… and when I said gained weight, I literally meant gained weight… here are some before and after pics.


BEFORE (This was taken at SJ Tambayan, DLSU-M approximately 5 years ago…

And this is me now…


 


You see that? That Double chinned, chubby cheeked man?

What I'm thinking now? Lifestyle change. My target, to lose 40-60 pounds in a span of a year. Game plan is to do 30-45 minutes of jogging 3 days a week (which isn't so hard since there is this nice park in a nearby subdivision) and 2 basketball games on Sunday. I really need to get my old body back…

So aun… I know I haven't been posting anything on this blog lately. The reason is I'm pretty much occupied ditto sa bahay. Its either nagluluto ako (yes, im still trying to learn how to cook now), gardening (bago ito for me, got to put what I learned in botany), or nagbabantay ng tindahan. =)

I still missed my friends at work though… im gonna go there tomorrow so make yourselves available. Baka magyaya ako mag Rauls… hahaha!!


 

P.S.

Some other pictures na I took in between the time na nag resign ako and now.. Enjoy!! (since matagal ko na di hinahawakan ung camera ko, my skills are a bit rusty, so wag masyado murderin ang pics ha?)

Resigning from work… =)

I just resigned from work today... parang nabunutan ako ng isang napakalaking tinik.. =)

 
 

but looking back. medyo masakit din pala, na iiwan mo ung company na dinedicate ko ung 2 years and 6 months ng buhay ko.. but I have personal goals to achieve, and time is running short.

 
 

Things that I'm not gonna miss:

 
 

1. Helping out stupid or bitchy or rude customers (its right that you pay us to help you but that doesnt give you any right to be rude to us)

2. i dont need to change my password every1-2 months (I already have a long list of used passwords and its getting hard to remember)

3. My new boss (haha asa pa sya)

4. My new shift manager (kung sana ung nilaki ng boobs nya napunta ung onti sa puso)

5. Installing Dellconnect every friggin day!!

6. My opening spiel

7. Avaya phone

8. Spam ng program namin na wala ng ginawa kundi punuin ung 4mb file limit ng mailbox ko.. grrr..

9. isa pa pala un, ung 4mb file limit ng mailbox.. potek mas malaki pa ung memory ng cellphone ko eh, buti pa un 64mb..

10. si jollibee... nakakasuka na sya eh

11. ung Milo sa pantry na mag LBM ka pag uminom ka

12. ung pagbebenta

13. ung pagtroubleshoot..

 
 

and shempre, eto naman ung listahan ng mga bagay na mamimiss ko...

 
 

Things that I'm gonna miss:

 
 

1. Im gonna miss Team Wetworks - sila ung last (And the BEST) team ko bago ako umalis..

2. makipagkulitan with team mates

3. Coaching sessions with Nat

4. Raul's Isaw sessions

5. Gilligan's inuman..

6. Being independent financially (ngaun, balik ako sa puder ni mama hahaha, mabilis mauubos tong inipon ko pihado)

7. My outlook (dami kasi messages dun na gusto ko sana isave)

8. ung mga crush ko sa SMB huhuhu (joke lang frapp, love you!! as if naman kasi may chicks dito no, puro mga lalake tao dito eh)

9. ung mga hirit ni warren

10. ung mga pangaasar ni jem kay wilmer

11. ung pagkanta ni jason

12. ung mga hirit ni love

13. ung mga pambabasag ni kats kay nat

14. ung pagiging "cocky" ni nat LOL

15. ung pagtatanggal ni norms ng plug ng headset mo habang may kausap ka, so akala mo na disconnect ung customer.

16. ung mga mababait kong naging customer.

 
 

 
 

and lastly..

 
 

17. Helping customers (NAKS!!! ang plastik omg!!)

 
 

haha!! ayan na muna siguro!!

 
 

I love you guys, God bless sa inyo dyan. I'm always here whenever you need me. ^_^

First rant for the year 2009?

I just texted JR para sa sched namin this week sa new teams namin, and I learned na I won't be going back to Team Wetworks this week… and that urged me to write this…

May 5, 2008

This was the day na sobrang happy ako kasi, nalipat na din ako ng eTelecare Alabang.

Three days after, I met my new team…

Medyo traumatic kasi una kong seatmate nun eh si Andrew… hahaha.. ever since then, I always sat near Nat. lol

May 24, 2008

First outing with Alabang teammates. Nasanay na kasi ako na di nakakasama sa mga GA's ng mga naging team ko before kasi the thought of the long travel makes me wanna go home and just sleep all through the weekend.. pero ngaun oks naman. First time na I get to hang out with the coolest TL on the floor (Self proclaimed) and JR (Case controller namin).

Lots of things happened ever since then. Nandyan na ung muntik bumagsak ang PA kasi frustrated ako dahil di ako napromote nung Q4 2007. Pero that feeling was short lived as I started to enjoy this team for the very first time in my whole stay sa company.

What made this team different from a total of six teams na nalipatan ko in my almost 3 years stay sa etel?

This team is FUN. Yeah I know na you should pass your metrics every 3 months, yada yada, but you don't have to take the fun away with that. Previous teams that I've experienced, masyadong focused metrics wise that they tend to over emphasize on them (making their agents stressed out) thus forgetting to put the fun factor in work.

I like this team because the manager cared. Unlike that one team leader na I had before, who threatened na isuspend ako if I went absent (because my mom got sick during that time at kami lang ng sis ko ang tao sa bahay). I now got a manager who cared, and sobrang thankful ako for that. As an employee, it's nice to know (and feel) na the company that you have dedicated your 3 years is showing that it cares for you through your manager. That makes me want to give back and excel sa trabaho na binigay sa kin, kasi at the back of my mind, wala na ako iniisip kasi if ever may mangyari, I know that the company will support me. To think of it, even if I work para sa sarili ko, my priority will always be my family. eTelecare should train more people like Nat. Leaders that has their hearts in the right place.

Like they say, there is no "I" in "team". One more reason why I love Team Wetworks is its members. From the over farting Andrew to the high libido mommy Leah. Sobrang saya, na di mo napapansin na tapos na pala ung shift nyo dahil tawa lang kayo ng tawa. Ever experienced na you are on the floor with the most boring team? tapos when you look over sa cubicle mo, may makikita ka na team na sobrang saya (at nagkakantahan pa, while on shift). Don't you wish na sana andun ka? Well, I wished before, and it came true.

From the times na kumakain tau sa Mang Raul's Isawan hanggang sa escapades natin sa Laguna, this was a team you'll look forward to work with everyday.

February 18, 2009

Good things doesn't last forever, but I was very happy while it lasted. This coming Wednesday, I will no longer be a member of Team Wetworks. But nonetheless, I'm still happy na I became a part of it. I'll still be looking forward to our Gilligans drinking sessions and isaw escapades. Keep in touch. =)
