Lessons learned:
no matter what you do, how good you’re at it, it’s all just work. A job that will receive a paycheck, that others won’t give a damn if you sacrificed personal time on it. People forget easily and only few will recognize all those effort that in the end wouldn’t matter anyway.

My mistake, I treat everything I do like my own. But where does this lead me? - nowhere.
Another reason I left my job, is I am beginning to complain too much. Because my patience are all used up, I snap easily. I complain, so therefore, after analyzing, I need to take a break and do something different for a while, Lower my stress level, I must recuperate and recharge.
It’s not like me to take a long vacation and so I opted to switch to another channel.
But I MUST Make sure I must not commit the same mistake.

Work of Change

I’m resigning from my current employment - effective June 28, 2012. Will be submitting my resignation on Monday May 21, 2012. After 7-1/2 years, I finally decided to leave this post.

Why? - Simple. All my efforts, sincerity and love for the job is unappreciated. monetary or verbally. Nil. and this hit me hard last December 2011 to finally realize that my employer do not see anything good about things I’ve done to my disadvantage personally (fyi: I saved them US$600,000.00 worth of headache) and I wasn’t able to accept it until now, and to be able to be happy, I must leave it all behind me, find myself another job and move on.

Hope that my move will finally awaken my employer to see how valuable “me” is. to see how efficiently work can be done, when The time come that I’m no longer around. Well, I’ve had enough, neck-high-used-up patience.

Change is uncertain. It may or not be the best option, but I will take this already. I said Yes and I’m leaving.

Resigned

Finally said it. They accepted. And that’s that.

You struggle with money. You struggle without money. You struggle with love. You struggle without love. But it’s how you manage. You have to keep laughing, you have to be fun to be with, and you have to live with style—not fancy-schmancy, but in a way which is present and meaningful and has some beauty to it.
–Pierce Brosnan, in an interview in Parade, June 15, 2008 (via pancakenation)

“’Violence is when one works for 40 years for a few crumbs, and nevertheless has to ask for the right to retire. […] Violence is the employer’s right to dismiss you whenever he wants’. wrote 44 year old teacher Metikis Savas in a suicide note before hanging himself in his parents’ house.”

How do you do it? To be positive. How not to whine about a bad day? that is if you have any. To be always cheerful as if you’re not experiencing any burden? Not to be angry, like it doesn’t matter anyways? Not to be stressed by anybody as if its no big deal? How do you do it? Its so hard to be positive.

Yes. At most times, it does feel the way you describe it. For me, I don’t watch any TV at all for 2-1/2 years already other than when eating breakfast or Lunch. And still I feel 24hrs (Time) is not enough. Ps. I work Monday to Saturday 8am to 5pm. 48hrs work week and sometimes longer.

I feel bad when I read post
Of people feeling alone
That they feel nobody is there
To share their life with
That people feel they’re lost
Doing the same things
Over and over and over again
That deep down its darkness
No meaning, no depth as to why
They need to go on
Why is real love so elusive
Happiness is unattainable
That having a goal is pointless
That people think
That all is temporary
Or maybe Its not the truth
That they cannot grasp
The meaning of Forever
I wish tell them that only
If you try to let go
Of the fears and take risk
To commit, that you’ll
Find true happiness
In love.

Unpolished: stop chasing, look inside, listen closely (stop, look, listen)

pinksubmergence:

stop chasing comets
you’ll settle for fiery tails

stop chasing trains
you’ll end up down the rails

stop chasing horses
you’ll never be as unbridled

stop chasing smokes
you’ll end up being stifled

stop chasing rivers
you’ll lose yourself in bends

stop chasing time
you’ll never have…

Stop chasing, stop, look and listen
What you’re looking for is just infront

R.A. Casilao: The Reasons

manuscriptsandbourbon:

I read you not only because of the ways that you and I are similar, but because of the ways that we are different. You may be seeing the world through the monocle of a misanthropist, the vision of a cynic, the canvas of a nihilist, or the pen of the doomsayer. I read you not because I agree but…

Is it just me or does anyone else have one of those days at work that is so disgustingly rancid, that there appears to be no other option but to quit? What is even more…

I used to love my job. But I am down to 30% of these days….

Ur not alone. I am too at Year 8 of my carreer. I work in the Real Property development industry. I’m married with husband and 1 child. I’m confused at work as I manage “All” but at the same time wasn’t appreciated for all my hard work, being harrassed by one of my Boss who at the same time micromanages and coexisting with a coworker who badly envies my Position. Ur not alone. It’s called being responsible for your family and you’re making sacrifices for them.

so true!

Not true… making other people happy is the greatest enjoyment I’ve had in life in years.

98% of me believe this to be a true fact, humans by default are selfish. 2% of me thinks there is still some good people out there who genuinely enjoys helping others out for the sole reason, just because They can.
