helluva job

I started my first ever job as a management trainee in xXx bank ( u knoe well..) few weeks ago while waiting for other prospective replies from other companies. The first day of work turned out to be okay , not great, practically my whole day was spent in the learning centre, doin nothing productive as tho i was back to my kindergarten days. We played with crayons alot - hell a lot ! the amount of crayons i used could sum up to the amount i used in the past 10 yrs!no joke, n i hate crayons, i hav to 'revisit' the sink of the loo each time i finished a drawing session. Super troublesome and dirty. Can't imagine myself doing colourings on mahjong papers when we're actually so called credit mgmt trainees. Shouldn't we be doin something more professional and less time consuming?...i wonder.

I tot that was jus gonna be the first day, ok, it wasn't that tiring and it wasn't too boring either.It was jus too meaningless.I've a fren who worked there as well, same position,diff batch. N he does a lot of drawings with crayons up till today.The first day i was already told that it's a must to stay back till 10-11 pm everyday for the trainee without getting paid for OT.What's worse is u might not even get an increment of salary after confirmation AND u won't get bonus if ur an officer." Wth?? " NO OT-fine, No Increment?-bearable- , NO BOnus- cannot make it..pretty de-motivating. I understand if u dun get any bonus if ur new to the company but even when ur officer u dun get bonus? i hav to be an officer for at least 2 yrs!! i reallie don't understand their system..did i mention their strict grooming rules(ladies must wear nail polish & blazer) and our CMT's obnoxious head? blahs..

So that was it. It was so de-motivating that i applied for MC to do my CIMB presentation, jus 2nd of work=p I didnt actually plan to do my presentation for CIMB but since my first day was THAT sucky..i might as well jus go for it. Power point presentation not easy ok..i spent bout 4 hrs preparing it last min. I thought im gonna fail miserably but luck came to me. I hav final interview with 'em tomoro=) i would be happier if CIMB's other companies which i wana be in..sigh* i wonder how long more to wait for their replies..i dun wanna bond with cimb jus yet.

The thought of quitting my XxX job grew stronger after the first day of working. Then i decided to tolerate for one whole month, get my first salary and say farewell to my colleagues=p Basically my 2nd n 3rd working days were in the hotel, attending talks and sharpening our presentation skills. Talks were as expected- BORING but bearable.If it's not for the free lunches n tea breaks i would've collapsed in the ball room. I was so damn sleepy ,back in the college days where i can doze off anytime during the lecture,this time i couldn't even afford to close my eyes longer than 5 secs=p The 3rd day pissed me off coz we were supposed to off bout 6..n it got delayed to 6.45 when my boyfren was alreadi waiting outside the hotel at that time.Then our head told us to stay back and we were not allowed to leave so early.WTF??! "At least tell earlier la sheesh..not everyone owns a car..dumbass" I had no idea where he put his rationality at - he required all of us to go back to the learning centre, which is in PUDU and the hotel's in BKT bintang! By then my anger was already at the super high level jus like a volcano waiting to erupt..tak beh tahan! I had to ask my boyfren to go home n wait for my call n in the meantime i tumpang my fren's car back to pudu. The dongkoi head then did some briefing with us..n he actually called each n everyone of us to go bk to pudu bcoz he himself forgot to bring an article which was supposed to b our assignment!

Geramm* !! Why the heck must we go bk there bcoz of one person's fault. The amt of time jamming all the way bk to pudu's even longer than the time he took to brief us. The previous assignment that my colleagues did on the 2nd day of work on mahjong papers (i was on MC=p)- he demanded 'em to finish it on fri-with every single white space of the mahjong paper-COLOURED! nonsensical huh?? imagine how big the mahjong paper is and u had to colour every single white detail with crayons with only 2 in a team and deepavali hol was only a day away-which means they only hav a day to finish it PLUS 2 more assignments due the same day. this is STUPID. not to say it's important to have it coloured anyway right..somebody pls help me to find some sense in this..*sighhsss* My poor boyfren had to come back all the way to kl again- jam for another hour plus for jus 5 mins of briefing. grrrrrrr*

Since i couldn't stand the job any longer i finally decided to quit jus after 3 days of working.What's the point of holding on when u've lose interest right.. i dun wan to continue doin all these stupid assignments when i know for sure i'll b quitting and it's jus the matter of time. I handed in my resignation letter the next day and now i'm officially UNEMPLOYED again=p at least i got a one week salary, not too bad huh. Many asked me the reason y i quit when i was being paid that amt of money. May seemed high but if u actually study ur maths, i dun get bonus so it all summed up the same as other jobs-cept that it's more pointless than the rest.Some assumed that i couldnt handle long working hrs and shouldnt look for the starting pay. I wouldnt mind working long hrs if its for a prestigious company but with slightly lower pay.Just not my cup of tea.I may be PICKY but that could be the starting of my future career, so how not to be ?
