ready or not
just yesterday morning when my shift was about to end, our operations manager called me and my supervisor. i tried to scan in my mind if i've done something wrong because the OM really looked serious. well, i was able to think of a few--well fine, many.
but honestly, there's this 1 hope that came into my mind. i recently applied as a product specifics trainer in the company. i tried so much to dismiss that thought. i wouldn't want to be disappointed. however at the back of my mind, i had hoped so hard at that moment that it would be "it".
then the OM said that he was sorry to announce that I HAVE JUST BEEN PROMOTED AS A TRAINER!
nothing could describe the overwhelming happiness i've felt. but i still found it funny when my OM said that i have a very strong personality that sometimes it was intimidating and scary. and my supervisor seconded that.
when i talked to the trainer whom i would buddy-up for this week, she really confirmed what the OM said. she even used the word "scary". she further said that she was "traumatized"--for the lack of a better word- when i was her trainee.
enough with me being scary. i already have the job i've wanted and the job that could sufficiently support KISHNI and still have extra for me and my family. i feel so blessed. i have so much to thank God for. but i just hope that i would still feel blessed when i run out of money because of the things i need and the pizzas i need to buy for my former team mates.
whooo! wish me luck in this new chapter and wish me luck in surviving until the next payday.
