Dilemma, dilemma....

I am in a dilemma now...

Beer was very nice help me keep a lookout for jobs... some weeks ago I have "let the wind out" that I may be looking for new opportunities...

The next few days, he actually called me up and ask if I would be interested to be a Property agent for Company H. I know Company H's projects and launches are niche, very nice and small developments. Their agents will be involved with Showflats launches etc.
I told him that though I am not too keen, I would consider and thank him for keeping me in his kind thoughts!

a few evenings ago, Beer called while I was jogging. His friend, B, is a headhunter and he merely mentioned to him that I am looking out for opportunities. As I was jogging, we only chatted for a while. But the very short conversation lingered in my heart. I cannot be sure what I really want now, I just know to do my best in whatever I am doing at that moment. But I do want to be able to work from home ultimately, fixed hours, not have to worry abt work after office hours and what no one will call me at home for work related matters.

I still pin on the hope to achieve financial freedom, can only achieve through online trading?! So do I really wanna change industry?
Start all over again?

Dilemma dilemma!

So B called me today and we talked for a while,he requested for my CV. I asked in more details what are the companies that he help source manpower for? He told me mainly MNCs like IBM, HP,etc. I also hinted that I would prefer to work from home, assignment based and understand that these companies have such schemes for their staff! I agreed to email him my resume over the wkend.

But I am hesitate, do I really wanna get a new job? or try try only 1st, see my market value!

Today, I printed out all my old payslip since I joined the company.... I am surprised to learn that actually I have earned a decent pay (average over the mths) considering that I entered into this industry as a newbie (mayb my expectations are low lah). But the market have been so bad recently that I am earning barely my expenses.
Qn: Is sales really the way out to earn bigger buck for non degree holders and limited skill pple like me?
Qn: Am I really suited for sales?

Starry asked if I just wana change industry or change company. I also duno...

Anyway, I sent out the CV liao. See how it goes bah!

--------------------

Today another headhunter company called me... absurd! Called my work hp! How daring!!
The conversation went like this:

"Hi! My name is J, I am a Headhunter. Is it convenient to talk now?"

"Hi J, yes it's convenient now, may which headhunting company are you calling from?"

"Oh, I work on my own!" *FAINT!* "So Soya, I understand that you are working for XXX Bank as a XXX, are you interested to switch jobs?"

"You are right, I work for XXX Bank. May I know which company or industry are you sourcing for?"

"Oh, mainly companies involved in Financial Industry!" (note: through our conversation, she used a ridiculously high pitched "fake enthusiatic" voice that is almost non-irritating!)

"May I know exactly which are the companies that you are sourcing for?"

"Well, insurance companies eg.Pxxx !"

"I see, I understand they are aggressively now. But Thanks, I have no intention to join an Insurance company just yet, but I will keep ur offer in mind. Thank you for calling,J"

----------------

Really, if i really wanted to join the Insurance line, I would have already done so straight outta Navy! I would have earned a decent paycheck (judging from my track record now and with recurring income.... I think will manage decently). .... but nope nope.....

Not my cup of tea. I enjoy talking to people, sharing with them the importance of insurance, saving etc. If they are agreeable, I will help them with the application. But I will not HARD SELL.... against my principles leh...

How how?! Dilemma dilemma!

Today me & boss were toking abt our "big" boss.... she was leaving for a meeting.... which if u ask me, the agenda of the meeting is dreadful... seeing the person is dreadful enough... haiz.
anyway, she asked me seriously:" do u ever wanna be a manager like me?"

WAU! So direct... I told her the reply for my troubled past few weeks :"I duno, looking at wat you are doing, seeing that u have to see this person that no 1 wanna see.... I really duno the reward is like not worth leh.."

This is the most truthful reply I can think of.... it is the most ME reply....

haiz....she replied: " Yah, that's what I tot so too.... but looking at you & G, for the both of u, it is WORTH IT! But for others, nope..."

My heart immediately warmed up...mayb it's a PR thingy, maybe it's from the bottom of the heart.... it sound really nice and sincere to me....

So Buck up Soya! 振作一点!
