Happy 1st Year Anniversary- Batch 1

Its been a year since we set foot here in Kuwait. I can say that we are damned lucky guys! For me it was one hell of a ride.. there's lots of Ups and downs, sink or swim. But I think what matters is that.. I dont lose faith in my self and I become more stronger and resilient. Nonetheles I am so thankful being here, got awesome job and having the time of my life.

Now that we're geering to our 2nd year, we're praying that this year will be more productive and stable. To my batchmates.. Thanks always for being there! Keep the Quota coming hehe!

Branch transfer.. again!

I'm sad about the sudden transfer.. and I cant hide it, for me it's like they drop an atomic bomb on hiroshima and I'm at the center of it (that really would make me hott.. joke!) The thing is, I cant do anything about it. Though that it is really sad I dont want to wallow in negativity coz it wont help at all. Everything wil be fine and I can manage! That's the spirit! The thing is..I'll miss my colleuges in my old branch... they're nice and I like the athmosphere there, one more thing is Ilove here in Salmiya.. its the best place here in Kuwait.

It's my 1st day in Farwaniya.. Good thing I was able to sleep tight last night despite all.

I guess its a new chapter for the desert prince..

I am full of hope and positivity..

and that what matters to me!

Probably, Maybe!

Still cant believe it... OMG! I hit the target this month.. Well, still numb bout it, I should be happy right? I dunno. Mixed feeling probably.

60%

April is finished.. I need think bout May.

This is the life of a Sales person..

This is the life I've chosen..

If you will ask me now If I am happy... I dont know the answer..

Probably.. Maybe!

KIDS CARNIVAL

Last week our manager told us that there will be a kids carnival at the Marina Mall in Salmiya. He assigned joyce and me to take part of it, our company was one of the sponsor so we had a booth. Joyce was assigned to man the booth in the morning... and me in the evening. Oh my God! that was cold! The mall is just beside the sea (cool!) that's why its soo cold during the evening.


The 1st day was fun because there's lot of mascots around clowning with childrens and childrens alike.. including me hehe!

Here you can see scooby doo, clowns and other disney characters. It's so cold and windy outside and yet the kids were all merry and out to have fun.

KIDS CARNIVAL
I took this pic at around 4pm but it looks like around 5pm because its soo cloudy that day. I bought the Sony Ericson P1i because it has 3.2 megapixels camera compared to the regular 2megapixels of most camphone.. but sometimes photos taken by my Nokia 6630 with only 2MP are much better.. I dont know, probably it just from the lighting.

Sea side, lots of speedboats at the dock

The MARINA CRESCENT

WATANIYA TELECOM BOOTH

My second night manning the booth, there's few customers that day because it was soo cold.

Big colorful baloon

I thought that banderitas are only in the Philippines.

I took this on the second floor, Julius came and visit the booth and we agree to have some dinner.

We ate at GBK.. I love thier burgers.

Being at the flagship

Two weeks ago.. or probably three, I was waken up when my phone rang. It was Joyce on the other line. She told me that I need to go to the newly open branch at Salmiya, at Shaha branch. I screamed.............. Whattttttttt???? Yah! exage hehe!

I feel stupid because nobody told me about me being transfered. I dont know if it's something to celebrate or what. Shaha branch is the flagship branch of Wataniya Telecom... meaning its the best or something like that.

I have really mixed up feeling about this, I'm kinda happy because I'm nowhere in sight of my inxxxpetent ex-manager that's one, no night duties, less crazy customers,
I dont need to wake up at 4am to prepare to my 6am duty.

However, I still miss airport, I'll miss my colleauges, I'll miss my group.. oh! they're really nice to me. I'll miss my chitchat with Ate at Al Fouz, or my early morning coffee at Cup n Chino.
And most of all... I'll miss my 40kd Hehehe!



Welcome to Shaha Branch!

It's much bigger than average Wataniya branch, with both customer service and helpdesk, it boast almost 50 plasma tv, with three teaboys to assist us and a guard.

My workstation.

During my stay there for almost 2 or 3 weeks, Im kinda adjusted already with my new schedule. But I still miss the 2 day off at the airport. At Shaha, we have 2 half days, its either we will work from 9-1 or from 5-8. I prefer to work at night because I dont like waking up early in the morning.. and secondly there more customers during night time.

Its my day off today and tomorrow i'll go to work at 5.. great!
