On my table this very morning when I reached, was a letter with some forms attached. It is a promotion offer letter, not only to me but to all who are interested to apply. I just chucked it aside.. haha.. hey, i m not being actsy.. i m lazy ...
Reasons :
For many years, I have seen some of my colleagues applying year in year out without any success. Even if I get it, I will definitely, be transferred to smaller towns outside IPOH, away from home, away from my kids and can go back only weekends. The percentage of being promoted and working in IPOH is almost NIL...
So...finally... no promotion means money less, stress also less... CAN RELAX!!

ReplyDeletewah can apply for promotion one!!
ReplyDeletethanks for agreeing with me all of u.. the only attractive thing about being promoted is getting 5 days more annual leave and of course, got some "power" la... but also comes with more responsibility naturally. me being me, i prefer to have stressless nights and not restless nights..
