It’s Not Worth It!

February 27, 2009

Mention to me someone who says he’s a workaholic and I’d give him a heart pounding slam on his back joined with a teary-eyed face because of a non-stop turbulent laugh. If I may say… even if you stay in your office late every night, every time you miss every social events because you are trying to be “efficient” and you’re trying to show them that you’re worth every penny of your employer’s money, it’s just not worth it.

So even if you hear those words of praises and receieve a pat on the back every time you do a good job, it’s not worth to boast to your self and to rise your ego up above your mainstream level.

So, enough of those crappy bullsh*t talks that would try to give you “assurances”, instead, why not give them your ”non-stop nods” and “I see” lines even though you can’t even see their most basic point.

Then when you get out of that meeting room that seemed to be a Rialto that takes you in a virtual ride, but at the end, will still take you to the exact place you’ve been, you mutter to yourself all the curses you’ve learned since childhood until your present years, but then, that wouldn’t be enough.

It’s time to take action.

So from now on, screw that darn job description and go on live your life with the people you love and never miss a moment because of that extra - ” and others that the management may assign from time to time” bullcrap thing.

Because at the end of the day, your work can never give you that warm treatment that your family and friends give you.

I had been wanting to post a comment here but I am bombarded with a lot of stuff…but here I am ready to post my ***much awaited*** voice on this matter.

Well, still the choice is up to us. Take it or leave it. However, it’s not an easy decision anymore. But I am not saying that THIS IS THE BEST PLACE to stay. For a time, observe, see things and be discerning on the real scenario. Because it might be a beautiful venue or every activity seems well-planned and at the end of the day, you never thought that you are already hanging and ready to be kicked out. Nobody knows except them.

Ask yourself, if this is what you really want, if you ask me, I am just waiting for the right timing. Check it…if this is the time to roll your blanket off and pack up. Or it still nice to take some time to sleep.

But remember, do not compromise your happiness just for this d*mn source of living…always remember that “the best is yet to come”. You have a long way to go. You are young, not so fresh (just kidding and I believe talentado rin. Keep your focus on your dreams… I thing I want to tell you. See you at the top LIZA FIELD.
