Day 9

Today is a reflection day. Both Jarin and my sis asked me about the work so far. What i got from Jarin was that audit is really a job that doesn't fit the hours-to-pay tradeoff, and life is subjected to the people there.. and the chances of a bad boss does not seem low.

It is interesting though, to see her hanging on, keeping her eyes right on the 3 years for a CPA.

This relates back to a session with my sis, who asked me what i did. To sum it up, i found out i learnt nothing much, the job isnt related to my field of study, and well, its really just admin work. The good thing is i'm looking at it in another angle. There are still learning pointers, such as understanding the business better, getting along with people and adjusting to corporate life. Yet, a nagging sound still eats at me: Is this what i want?

I understand how my brain seems to work. It always searches for extreme cases and display it for me. I would then struggle between a logical choice: 0 or 1. True or False. But why not 0.5? Why not, it depends?

Summary of Day
1. Went early as there's a meeting.
2. Went into meeting only at 11. The session was the last out of the timeslot. Did some research, read the news
3. Helped in booking venues.
4. Attended meetings.
5. Lunch was at Golden shoe again, but maybe its better to hang out with the interns.
6. Drinking session with MC. Had great "sitting" jap food and wine
7. Overall, a really boring day.
8 May need to do some mystery calls.
