Keeping the Faith in HIM

                I am taking this opportunity to share how me and my family managed to have a good life despite of losing our dad in an early age. My family is not well off. My dad works as a maintenance in a school in Quezon City while my mom is just a plain housewife. I am the eldest and I was thirteen when he passed away while our youngest was only less than a year. I remember how my mom cried for she lost her husband and she doesn’t know what to do to support her five kids. My mom worked as a housekeeper. I remember visiting her on the house where she works after school. I hate it whenever I see her being asked to do an errand especially of someone we don’t know but because I don’t have a work, I can’t do anything about it but to watch and help her if I can. We were lucky enough for God has touched one of my mom’s employer to support me in school. I was in my fourth year college when my mom’s employer passed away. Because we don’t have enough money, I was not able to finish my studies and had to find a work.

                Looking for work, I thought I should go for a high paying job but because I’m not able to finish my studies that would be hard. Feeling determined, I went to apply for a customer service position at a BPO company for I heard back then that they offer a decent pay. I almost cried when I was advised that I was accepted. Worked as CSR for two years and eventually was hired for QA Analyst position. After three years, I was promoted to QA Supervisor and then I finally asked my mom to quit her job. Right now, I was able to get my own car and planning to buy a house for my family. You see, you don’t have to be upset when someone you depend on disappears but keep in mind that God knows all your needs and he is the great provider… all we have to do is to pray and keep our Faith in HIM.

All in the Name of "Promotion"

My officemates are all going crazy because we are all dreaming of being promoted this year. But there is a big chance that all our efforts will go to waste because of one person. That person loves to hang out with our "BOSS" because she's hoping thats he'll get the post that way. I'm sure she knows how to win the game but her strategy is a big NO NO. Well I am not affected of what she's doing because I'm not on the same department and I'm doing this because I hate to see her everyday spending most of her time following her boss. Some of us wants to get something the easy way and not the hard way. I mean I'm not trying to be noble but I feel bad about those people who doesn't get what they want because they don't have enough time to chat with their boss because they're too busy doing their job? The way I see it that girl will definitely end up getting the post because she's consistent in tailing her boss anywhere. But I hope that her boss will have a good eye on who's deserving to the post. She's wise to choose that kind of strategy she might get the post but I don't think that she'll earn her officemate's respect because of what she's doing,
