I'm damn tired!!

Today when I went in to my office, my boss was already in my face. Asked me about when I'm going for some site commissioning over in Pulau Perhentian and Pulau Redang.

I was lucky I had arranged my schedule complete with my team, contractors and vendors the day before. This trip was going to be something big, and definitely will mark an era in my life (for me, at least).

I consired this as pinching me since last time, there were rumours hovering through the office that there will be relocations of staffs and our big whole team was going to be affected. Come to think of it, relocation means moving out with your family and that is going to be much of a hassle. Since then we were really busy looking out for some other opportunities outside. Going for interviews was really an open secret and it just doesn't matter on what reason you are on leave, colleagues will say you are out for an interview.

This scene lasted up to 3 months and now the rumours had subdued. By then, then rumours had taken its toll. From a team of almost 60 persons, we were down to only 45 as many had already resigned from their post. Some of them got good bargains such as offered higher salaries, permanent position and benefits like hospitality that counts.

Oh yeah, we are on a contract basis currently.
