First Day Mayhem

June 12th,  2008 was my first day back at work since i had liver problem for more than 3 weeks. Lots of changes happened at the office and more problems occurred. As i thought, problems were about the production capabilities and reliabilities that the company hold. I was intentionally back to work that day because in every Thursday, management always having a weekly meeting to discuss every aspects and obstacles on the field.

As always at precisely 14:00 PM all the managers and coordinators were gathered in the meeting room. I was amazed that all of them were present at the time and it never happen before. The Planning and Production Manager made the opening speech, told everyone that he has a big problems and express his "welcome back" to me with saying "finally our mediator/arbiter has arrived so we hope that no more uncompromisable dispute would happen again". I was stunned and keep processing what he just said "uncompromisable dispute". What did happen in the last meeting?.

For about 4,5 hours we had a full of disputes meeting but i was relieved that the disputes were solved and will be evaluated on the next weekly meeting. I have a major concerns about the evaluating process for the next weekly meeting, i have a problem with the top management commitment about their vision and, of course, their commitment to supporting our problem solving process. We always had a promise and certain procedures to handle the problems but when the next weekly meeting come lots of us didn't fulfill the promise and done the procedures, they always make a promise "next week we will" and when the next weekly meeting occurred they said it again "next week we will".

The meeting ran very well all of them were very cooperative to each other and i didn't see any of "uncompromisable disputes" or a "brutal disputes" happen, it just run very smoothly and very well. At precisely 16:15 PM my right stomach was in agony, i felt it very warm and i remember that i had a sudden fever. I was afraid that my liver problem strikes back and i had to rest (again). Approximately 16:45 PM i left the meeting for awhile and went to the bathroom, wash my face and i was shocked.. my face burning red, and at that moment i knew my liver problem was recrudescent.

I attending that meeting in a very painful way, i couldn't concentrate and i accidentally taking a nap in the middle of the meeting. What an embarrassing moment! and at around 18:20 PM the meeting was over and i said to my staff she should typewrite all the meeting conclusions. I rushed to my office room grab all my things and walk straight to the parking lot.

At 19:00 PM i arrived at my house and i felt very awful, queasy and i was very exhausted. I bought a dinner and i took a bath, sweep the floor just a little and watch tv. In about 10 minutes later.. i throw out and i almost unconscious. It was the moment that i've made my decision that tomorrow i won't go to work and went back to my parent home to rest (again).

Well, if only that day, at work, one of the Director present at the office i would like to meet them and talk about my resignation. But it didn't happen because they didn't present at the office.

What a shame..

I Found This Picture So Very Very Interesting

Well, i don't know what to say and how i supposed to react with this picture :

I'm not oppose the gay lifestyle but, what i can i say, i couldn't express myself about this one. I obtained the picture from this website and i only could say that the person has done an extreme avowal to the world. I have to agree that in a way of islam, gay lifestyle considered to be a great sin and a disgrace, but once again i have a very liberal perception about this. I did not and will not avoid, feel ashamed to them who are gay.

What i think is, it's about "free will" of a person how to behave, to opt their own way of life they think it's very compatible and comfortable with them. I respect that.

Final Lab Test

Today i received a fax from Prodia Laboratory. They fax me the blood test result and i am very relieve that my GOT and GPT level are back to normal. Not just that, according to the test result i also didn't have a Hepatitis A, B or C disease so i was sick because i was too exhausted and only liver swelling. I guess this week is my last day(s) to resting and relaxing at home, i have to admit 3 weeks at home and just relax, watching movies, reading books, browsing internet, playing PSP were the best times i had.

So, my days at home near the end and i have to prepare all the things that i should've bring back to work, maybe at monday. I promised myself that i won't work there any longer i just want to adapt myself in the workplace situation first then write my resignation letter and then fly away from there. I might be back to Jakarta and focusing to seek another career while learning TOEFL, International Politic, etc in case there's an opening  vacancies at Foreign Department.

Well, good times passing by really quickly.. but why bad times moving so slowly?

White Uniform Havoc

Last night i called my friend and we talked a lot about the company. How was the company going, what's new at the office and what's the newest info/gossip at the office (well, we men love to gossip too). I was shocked, and still in shock, when he told me that his Coordinator would leave the company for good because one of our Director have done a terrible act to him.

His salary has been cut down for about 15%. Her reason because he was demission to Officer not a Coordinator anymore. Well, my friend he is HRD Manager and for what he told me there were no rules to cut down salary based on the demotion process. He told me about lots of seniors who demoted to a staff, not manager anymore, but they still paid with their last salary as a manager. They didn't get cut off like this one.

I asked him how much is his Coordinator earn every month? he said about 4,5 million. I was shocked again.. i don't mean to underrate someone's professional title or whatsoever, but i am a Manager, obviously more superior than Coordinator, and i earn less than that!. I said this to my friend last night and he didn't believe me, he said it was impossible if my salary is lower than his Coordinator. I reaffirm again to him and he still didn't believe me. Well, i think i should show him my salary slip but then again why i should do that? it's stupid.

I have to admit, about this interesting case, it encourage me more to leave this "amateur company" as soon as possible. I said in all my blogs, this company have the potential to be a greater company if the right person holds the control. So far, it's still an "amateur company". For one year i have a great memories working there and have great friends but sadly i have to leave them.

It's time to seek another career.
