The Ripple Effect

When you do one good deed, it creates ripple effect. One good deed leads to another and another.

My senior colleagues have been asking me the same questions for the past weeks; Do you happy working here? Do you like the job? I've been warned a few times that this particular position is not suitable for women. They never hire a woman for the job and this is the first time for over 30 years. So, I understand their concern and where all these questions are coming from.


It's not the toughest job of all. I do think many women out there are capable to perform the job. Yet, I'm here, in this position and I have to make the best of it. The thing is, I do like this job. I like the surroundings. I like my colleagues. Somehow, I'm passionate with the job.


Dont get me wrong. It's not all rainbow and butterfly. I've been scolded by many people(especially from other department) from technician, executive and even up to managerial level. I cried for the first 2 weeks because of the pressure. and I still cry sometime, alone when things gotten out of hand. But I learned through it. As they always said, you'll learn better through mistakes. Just smiles, learned the lessons and make sure to not repeat the same mistake ever again.


So, do I like the job? Of course I do but not because it's full with rainbow and butterfly. It's because of the people and surrounding. and it's challenging - so far. Things are always fun and interesting when it's challenging, aite?

Smile people, smile. It sure will get better when you smile.
