Kerja Mak

I used to work as a Minah Kilang for 13 years.

Started there as my first job, offered during my degree final semester. Accepted it before going for my final exam and start right on once in the homeland.
I've never seriously-serously thinking of leaving the Kilang environment. Grew contended in my comfort zone. Well , I did leave for a year to do my Masters. I came back, unofficially ask for any vacancy and walllla wallaaa ... back as a Minah Kilang.
Never thought I can survive in other field.

Offers do come and go along the way. Not until this one, the ONE , which stuck in my head for weeks. Take it or let it go , as usual. Somehow, I decided to accept this particular offer.

The chain of event that lead to the job offer was so very effortless from my part. Even the h**dh*nt*r had been very accomodating in meeting with me at odd times.

Parking is designated, logistic is better, salary well ok lah not the determining factor ,
environment is a bit risky for my character (as I have been warn again and again by AAR) but i'm willing to take the risk. Prospect, in terms of the work itself ... well actually that's the catchy thing. I got to do similar thing with bigger scope.


So I left the Kilang environment and move to Tr*nsp*rt industry.

When I told the kids of my new employer, kids comments were made :

Rahman (then 6yo) : Mak kerja dengan k*p*lt*rb*ng sekarang ye ... mak jadi p*l*t ke ?

Aziz (then 4yo) : Aziz tau ... Mak kerja yang bawa turun beg dari k*p*lt*rb*ng ye ?

Azfar (then 8yo) : Abang rasa Mak kerja yang jaga parking K*p*lt*rb*ng !

So what actually do I do now to earn a paycheck ?

It's all
here ... for now, unless after the BIG-HOT-thing , significant changes happen and redeployment affect me. In the mean time, I will be keep doing what I am doing, of course with faster speed in anticipation of less "kakitangan", and Look Look and See See .

From early this week I should be expecting the worse to happen (work wise) and start thinking of the post-BIG-HOT-thing plan. What to do and How to do ?

Aaaaahhh fenatnya and sometimes scary to think of all this. In the mean time I will keep humming this song in my head ...


I Have a Dream — Abba

I have a dream, a song to sing

To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a fantasy
To help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream
I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

And dream I will ... good night zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
