It's been a while since I last update my blog..Here I go..
One fine morning, I received a msg from my manager " APU Office Phased Out!!"
I jumped up from bed and woke up Dear to read the msg, he is startled..
I went to office and read my email to realise that it's not a joke!
I am going to be jobless soon! Who would have predicted that Transocean - Largest Offshore Drilling Company will have to close down its unit office to cut cost! Reason given by HQ ( Houston ) is there are too many layers in the hierachy..it make work less efficient.
The whole office is gloomy and atmosphere is so tense..I hated this..A few of us gathered in my Manager - Lena Lee's room with lots of questions which she herself can't even answer..Even her job is at risk..The next day I went to office and I asked colleagues that yesterday's happening is not true right?? But their laughter confirm my greatest fear! WE ARE REALLY GOING TO BE RETRENCHED! That week was tough..everyone's mood grew worse...we dun even have mood to plan where to go for lunch which is supposed to be our greatest time of the day.. The retrenchment mood is slowly setting in on all of us..
It's nearing a month since we got the news..Next is when to leave..Some of them have already been told to leave at the end of Oct..My fate is still clueless.. I hate it when I have no security! ( Both in work & love ) I think by next week we will know our fate..
Dear has flew to Berlin for the Firework Competition..I miss him..I miss his supportive words & encouragement..I asked him " Will you support me if i dun work?" He replied " Sure, i feed you with rice,curry & egg...No more restaurant..." hahahah...To me, this is supportive enough.. I know myself that i will have to work lah, but at times I just like to ask silly questions...He will be back on Sept 8th..I am counting down everyday..
He is so sweet today..He is supposed to work at 8am ( Germany Time ), but he woke up at 6am ( 12pm Singapore Time )just to msn me ..Didn't expect him to sacrifice his sleep for me..So touched! Thanks Dear..Appreciated..
Tomorrow I am going for an interview..Hope they can pay me as what I want and the benefits are as good as my current company..
All the Best to Me!
