Working Life - Greatpac Sdn Bhd

Reading back on my previous blog, I realized that I did not blog as often as I used to be. I blog more than 10 blogs about my previous job in AIA Shared Services Sdn Bhd than I blog about my work at Greatpac Sdn Bhd. It's not that nothing happened at my current job. Perhaps I don't have that leisure to blog as often as I used to be. I think I will try to spare some time to blog more if I could.

Looking back, I have been working with Greatpac for a year already. It's the longest duration that I serve a company at this moment. I guess for my division, I'm considered the senior person already except for my senior manager, who happens to be my best friend (Douglas) and my brand manager, Shaun. For for executive level, I will be soon the most senior person after Jia Yee left.

When I joined the company on July 2011, Douglas was the export manager and Shaun is still the brand manager. Of course Douglas is the head of department of my division, JASA Eco. There were a senior executive, Sherman, and an intern named Bryan. On September, Sherman leaves us and followed by Bryan, replacing by a new intern named Cheston.

Early this year, Cheston leaves us and we joined by Shirah, the new sales coordinator on May 2012. She is to assist us, mainly me for our main customers and some other coordination tasks. Sad to hear that Jia Yee is planning to leave us too. So, I think I'll be the most senior person soon in my division. LOL.

Working in Greatpac is stressful in some extent. It's no longer like finishing up your quota for clearing up cases like I used to do in AIASS, but to make sales. Lots of decision need to be make and to be executed in order to make sure the company is running and surviving.

Well, I don't think I can share so much about the insight of the company as it's shall be confidential and proprietary. I'll share more on other issues. In conclusion, there is so much work to do.

Despite loaded with work, I do make some friends in the company. Most are very nice but maybe I just can't get along with so much with all of them. They are definitely elder than me. Those around my age also I didn't manage to make much a close colleagues as I used to at AIASS.

I have no idea how with that kind of relationship with my colleagues, it can still spread rumors of me, trying to date someone in my company. That girl is just a new colleague that happen to be nice to talk with. Seriously there is no way I will fall for her.

I felt like primary school again, those colleagues are like little kids, love making up story and match making you with anyone that you are close with. Luckily they didn't match me with my boss, as I'm pretty close with him. LOL.
