5 Year Long Service

Opps! I have not updated my blog since a month ago. Too busy bouncing around with work and also a short trip to KL. I guess i am tied down by tons n tons of work. Have been working so hard ever since i got back from Auckland. Recent events have added more stress to existing work. Yes, National Day is coming. Youth Olympic will follow shortly. Not that easy to juggle around these events.

Force myself to blog today cos of a simple reason. hahaha.. I was awarded 5 year long service award. It was quite a good opportunity to see various colleagues from many departments. This is the first time I get to see most of our senior management. I had colleagues who worked for 40 years in the company.

Can you believe that? 40 years in the same organisation? I got to say I have to take my hats off to these senior colleagues. I mean it isnt easy to stay with the same firm unless you have the passion and dedication. My 5 year award is nothing compare to 40 years. Most of these colleagues were in their 60s.

They were with the company since 70s. Wow. I believe they seen the most changes in the organisation. From statutory board to privatise company. The change of senior management, once a civil servant to become a private sector employee. 40 years. Can you imagine tat? We were applauding loudly when these heros went on stage.

I got the opportunity to work with one of the colleague. I was so happy when I saw him receiving the award. He is a nice man. Friendly and deserve our respect. There is another colleague too, who have work with us for 25 years. That isnt easy too. Halfway there but still growing strong. What about me?

hahhaa.. The grass is always greener on the other side. I dunno if there will be another 5 years of me with the company. Hopefully! Keeping my finger cross! :P
