As in my title, god blessed that at last I had made a brilliant and happy-ending decision to quit from IBM... my hectic life that makes me exhausted finally ends. I do not have to wake up early just to catch an early bus to work, travel nearly 2 hrs in bus, OT till midnight, wait for bus after dragging my tired body home, travel again in bus which I hate d most. It's really annoying sitting in a bus doing nothing for 3 hrs a day. It's just a waste of time spending about 5 out of 24 hrs a day for waiting for a bus and stuck in traffic jam.
I am NOT regret leaving IBM. Just feel that i need to leave this so-called HELL as soon as possible. The benefits and salary plus the title offered by IBM makes me feel that I am not valued and I do not deserve this type of treatment(negative ones). I definitely deserve a better ones. Personally and deep in my heart, I feel that I deserved a better and appreciative company and boss as I am not that bad actually.
First of all, the job scope offered is definitely not my preference, doing or better described as KEY IN contracts details is nothing related to FINANCE. I do not want to waste my 4 years of degree and come out entering into a career that totally not related. Secondly, they offered me contract staff with low starting salary(compare to others)... and lower grades as well.. mean i can claim OT.. normal executives cannot claim. Not to say the benefits given to contract staffs is such a ridiculous bad for a Big MNC company like this...
Okay, lets not to talk about IBM more as it had been a past tense for me and during my tenure there, I really experienced a lot. Work outside own comfort territory, far from family, travel in KL, office dull work(nothing much to learn), office politics, counting on $$ left everyday(heavy expenses) and so on.. It's really a physical and mentally torture to me for the pathetic 2-months..
Luckily I am lucky enough to be chosen to be one of the Graduate Credit Trainee in Maybank.. at first I thought of I am been disqualified as they called me when I am in HK and not able to pick up their calls.. but fortunately at last they called again. Thanks god I am been given the chance. I jump up triumphantly after received their calls. I even dig out my savings to payback IBM for the early terminations to join Maybank.
On 21st of November( **a day to remark), I packed all my stuffs to move to Maybank Learning Centres with joy. But during my 1st meet up with HR together with other 23 GCTs, I have the "Oh my Goodness" feeling deep in my heart. How come everyone seems to know each other and they sit together except me? And they is just 3 chinese girls in the group? How am I going to survive with majority are Malays? However, I still brought out all my courage to walk to them and started to talk to them. The GCT programme starts with 3 weeks classroom training followed by 3 weeks branch attachments, another one month intensive credit classroom training before end our programme with 3 weeks Business Centres attachments and 2 weeks Trade Finance Centres attachment.
During the first week, I was trying to be close to my Malay friends. And I found out that they are quite easy going and we became best friends easily. We were asked to move to Marriott Putrajaya in the second week as there will be Maybank games going on. I was again blissful and delighted as it's a 5-stars hotel. We will going to be stay there for 9 days. We stayed there, have meals there and our classes also there. I was so glad to be arranged alone as I'm the last person in the list ad there are 25 of us. I really enjoyed my time there with my friends. Our relationship became closer as we spent most of out time together in the hotel.
*** I will reveal more on the happiest working tenure in my life during GCT training programme...
