Thinking Hard: A Invitation for Course Briefing

Just as the title suggest, I had received an invitation to attend a course briefing this Friday. It for a post-diploma course that I had applied the previous year. However, I have yet to receive the result of my application. It makes one wonders if one should attend it or not. Since you do not know whether you are successful in your application, it will be a complete waste of time if you are not successful in your application. However, if you are successful, then the briefing may be useful and allows you to better prepare yourself before your course starts.

It seems like the pay review was made known to our team's supervisor. Apparently she knows how much our pay increases yet refuse to let us know. The only thing she declares to us was the pay review is based on our performance. Performance? I wonder how is that measured and judged. There is probably no fair way of judging performance in work place due to an endless number of factors affecting decision making (causing one's judgement to clouded). You may probably give someone a better grading just because you know him outside of work and he treats you well. Perhaps, that is also considered part of 'performance'. Well, some might think that I am complaining too much about the unjust and the world is unjust since the beginning. Yes, I really hope I could stop doing that. However, the environment does not seem to provide alternatives and opportunities for their people due to the influx of foreigners. The upgrades on infrastructures do not seem to be able to catch up with the pace of the influx causing strains on the society. It might not cause much uproar in the short run as people are just waiting for things to get better. However, in the long run, they would realize that their environment only get worse each day, and who knows what will happen then.

After writing the paragraph above, I think I should start writing and reading more because I used quite a number of repeated words. I know that I shouldn't have done that. So I shall try to improve on that.

Today is only Wednesday and I am feeling pretty dead already. I think I have too much to do everyday. As usual, I am the one who get thrown all the work that others wouldn't want to do or wouldn't know how to do. Much of my energy were spent finding out the way of doing certain new payments and data management on our system. Yet, I am expected to complete my daily operational workload as well. Time doesn't seem to be enough for me at work. Everyday after work, I will feel lethargic and got irritated very easily when my family needs me to do certain things for them. I know that my lifestyle is not healthy and I should stand up for my own rights at work. I have been trying for the past few weeks to manage my stress level and exercising to increase my stamina but I have not seen any results from these yet.

There are quite a number of problems I will need to solve recently. I will just keep tabs on them and update soon.

Hope you are enjoying your day at work or school or home. Have ample rest and stay happy.
