The Truth

Had a serious talk with someone yesterday...

I was told I'm a changed person ever since I got posted to my new job. Not for the better, but worse... it was sad to know... that my temper was so bad that nobody feel like talking to me anymore... I didn't realise the change until yesterday and I apologised for it. The hectic work schedule had taken up my personal time at home and when I reached home, all I think about was to have a good rest. There was no mood for me to spend quality time with anyone cos I was so preoccupied with work in my mind.

But the hectic work schedule was last two months when I was just posted there. Like I said, I'm slowly finding time for myself and indeed I could do it... but at the expense of slower files clearance rate, which was considered normal. My department is facing serious manpower shortage... with people leaving and no-one dares to join the 'family'. Main reason being... the heavy workload and challenging time management. Actually it wasn't that bad once you are used to the workflow. I may be complaining about how much time I have for myself now compare to last time... but I did learnt alot on the in-depth work processes. If there are more people in the 'family', the workload per person would not be so much and life at work would be much easier to glide through. But... the others can't see the linkage. People only want to have an easy life~ and I wonder when will the next batch of helpers be coming in. What we can do now is just to clear whatever existing files we have, and try to keep our own morale high.
