TIME FOR COOL CHANGES!

... i get these random thoughts so often but haven't really gotten the chance to write it down. sometimes i think why would i even blog about it and add up to the tons of byte-trash in cyberspace (who reads this anyway?? raise your hand!) Then again, this is a better venue of thinking-out-loud than literally talking it out loud (mas mahirap magsalita na walang kausap, hehehe).

i've recently quit my job from that company with the tagline "be brilliant together". it doesn't seem to enhance brilliance anymore, so it doesn't make sense to stay. it's not the work load that bogged me down but the never ending bickering and corporate politics. really now... for a small sized organization, the amount of politics, gossip, backstabbing and factions would give the PH government a stiff competition. it's crazy! work experience there had been like moments of roller coaster ride. i've been through the cycle of ramp-up, sabbatical, retrenchment, ramp-up, bench.... i joined when it was still a measly 200-employee headcount, i left with an ending headcount of 700ish. That should speak about what I have accomplished.

I'm gonna miss my girls (team) with their own quirky ways. I'm gonna miss the extra-curricular activities and themed-events of LEGO. I'm gonna miss my nice office space and the coffee-breaks with friends. But beyond that..
i was just relieved and happy to bid adieu! i could fill this space with my rants about management in this work place, but i choose to move on and let those who are left behind to discover the experience by themselves. it was fun while it lasted....

so here i am, not exactly a bum! i'm doing some contracting work. summer vacation is nearing end. my little nephews and dear ol' daddy had left for the US. i'm in the midst of transferring stuff to our new home in QC. Lots and lots of changes are happening. exciting times for the cool changes that are slowly falling into place.
