It had been a while since I last updated my blog as I didn't had the time to do so. so finally, here i am, sitting down right in front of my macbook, diligently typing out the things i want to share with you guys.
though it is only a short time since i joined sistic, but i had already worked in 3 different teams in the operations department. the first would of course be call center, where i was attached to for 2 weeks, after which i officially started my box office training. it was when i was in my 3rd week in box office where i was approached by my manager, providing me with the opportunity to help out with the formula 1 team. so after much considerations and advises from my friends, i decided to agree to it. and this week was my first official week in the f1 team. it was only when i am in the f1 team then i realised that they had put me in the role of the f1 dm (duty manager). I was appalled when i knew about this, as i had been approaching the dm for help whenever i met with a situation i can't handle all these while - be it in sistic or singapore flyer ! never have i ever been in the role of a dm before. "how am i going to do it?" , "what am I going to do now?" , "have i made the wrong decision?" , "what if i screwed up?" - these were the thoughts that immediately came into my mind, the obvious sign that i am someone who lacks a lot of self confidence. till now, i have no idea how am i going to do it, so i am going to take one step at a time, an extremely cautious step to be specific. every of the part-timers there have been telling me that the role of a f1 dm is not going to be easy at all, especially nearing the race dates. though i am trying my very best to not let these words affect me, but i must say that i do feel pressurised and stressed at the same time. but come to think of it, which job doesn't contain any stress at all?
apart from work-related issues, recently i had got people asking me these 2 questions: "do you feel that you are too over-qualified for your current job?" & "do you feel that your current job does not actually provide any career advancement?", which eventually got me thinking, "do i really feel that ?" still searching for an answer right now, but i would say that i do not agree that everyone should pursue a career that is something related to the field that he/she majored in. if you realised that you have actually lost your interest in that field that you had initially chosen, be it halfway through your studies or just started out working, then you should take the courage and start searching for a career that you feel that you would want to excel in. the search may be long and hard, but i believed, as long as you are persistent and put in that effort, that opportunity will definitely come. for me right now, i would say that i am actually gaining experience & at the same time, looking out for that ideal one. so if one day that ideal one really comes, who knows what will happen !
