Thankful Monday

The most difficult thing to feel is the fear of the unknown. - Cel

It's been weeks that I am waiting for this moment -- become a permanent employee in my new job. I have been psyching myself that the company needs people so I can be assured that I will be hired permanently. Also, I think I have done the job naman as expected. But still the fear of the unknown, the never-ending list of worries keep bugging me. Then a few days ago, my manager gave me the letter signifying I'm a perm staff na. :D Yeyeyey...

I am really thankful that despite of the world crisis, I am still have a job. Knowing that a lot of companies are cutting jobs, it's really alarming. As far as I know, there are no plans for our company to retrench since we are in good shape (i.e. we still have good clients). Just really have to prove more that I am really worthy for this company.

Another fear of the unknown is if my manager will allow me to take a few days off. As you can see on my calendar of events, my parents will be coming here in SG this Friday. I keep on thinking on how I will tell him considering that I just got perm and we have tons of work to do. I am already getting cold just thinking about it so I decided to go for it. It's so funny because even without knowing the exact number of days, he agreed. Woohoo.. :D

Sometimes the fear of the unknown will eat you up. Up to you if you will hold back or not think about it too much and take the risk. And as far as I know, it is generally better to take the risk. because most of our worries don't actually happen :)

So happy and so thankful.. :) I have tons of plans for my parents and I know I'll be able to do it. :D
