A new month..A new start..

It's a new month again. Got to take myself back on track. The challenge for last month was totally not in my favor. Later as I start my shift tonight for the month I gotta to do good. No room for any mistakes this time or else I'm doomed!..Not bad for failing though after passing for four months consecutively...Well, honestly somehow its bad, 'coz i started being so negative again about the job and once again considering other opportunities, thanks to my coach who is always making me feel better each time I feel that way. But anyway, I know its gonna get better this month, I can feel everything will be back the to the way it was.

Done with my two days off, I feel like I had the whole week vacation, which is kinda good 'coz i don't feel so stressed out starting my week later. It's my off after my shift later but i'm gonna render RD OT, coz i had too much or enough rest and besides, I need to pay the house rentals, my sister's graduation fee, my debts worth 2,500.00 pesos (really a lot), i need more or less 7,000.00 this coming pay day (don't think my pay will be enough huhu)..But then again, I know its gonna be fine..

A road to happiness can be unpredictable, uncontrollable....and unbelievably funny!

Have you imagined things happening in random instead of being in order or organized? If someone tells you the story of anything, you would understand it if it would have been told in a way how it sequentially happened. Yes, normally, but not in the film 500 Days of Summer. The story of a "boy meets girl where the boy falls in love but the girl does not" (the film's tagline). just before how the movie started, there was an emphasis that the film is not a love story. I couldn't believe at first, but really, it wasn't a love story at all. A guy fell in love with an average girl then get ditched eventually. Well, it could have been a non-happy ending love story, but that's not what the movie is all about. It's about doing something that you really wanna do in life. Its about having the courage to do what the things that you wanna do and to express the words you wanna say. These things are pretty basic, too basic that we don't barely notice,'coz we don't give a time to examine it.

There was a boy who fell in love and the story revolves around him, not about him and the girl who he is in love with. Perhaps, the girl is just one the people that made him realize how life can be randomly crazy and a gift at the same time 'coz it always leads you to something beautiful in the end. 500 Days of Summer is one of the best films released in 2009, these types of films really teaches you how life can be so random, funny and meaningful. As the movie says "A road to happiness can be unpredictable, uncontrollable....and unbelievably funny! "

1 down, 9 to go..number of days left:18 days

Update on the challenge...just a refresher, yesterday a challenge have started, a challenge that have been agreed by me and myself..its about getting 10 Very Satisfied surveys from our customers for 22 days . Well, it seems like the challenge is easier than I expected 'coz on the very first day I got 1 Very Satisfied survey, that means I only need 9 more. However, I think I set the number of days wrong, It's not for 22 days 'coz we only have 28 days for this month, so the challenge is even more challenging this time 'coz I need to get 9 surveys within 18 days. And tonight, I'm expecting 1 or more Very Sat survey today, i know I can't avoid it but there's no room for any mistake anymore. Although I can''t expect it to be smooth, but I know i'll get through this..So those who are with me, anyone out there, let's get it on.

The Challenge for 10 consecutive perfect surveys

It's second week of February, how am I doing with my work now?Are my goals still met?For four consecutive months since October, my goals have always been met and surpassed. But this month, although I started good with the first week with 75% survey, it went down to 38% on the first half of the second week which a lot further from the goal of 70%, my personal goal is 75%. Currently , need 10 perfect surveys from our customer to make it 70% and that's my new goal now, I still have more than 20 days to make up for this. It sounds impossible 'coz surveys are uncontrollable (I even just got 8 surveys the entire month of January), but more calls more possible surveys, so I need to render RDOT at least once a week. I know with Him nothing is impossible, I just need to do extra effort.

Right now, the challenge for myself is 10 consecutive perfect surveys for 22 days. Later tonight, the challenge is on!

Breakfast with Wizard Team

February 2, 2010

Just got home from work around 12 noon today, although my shift ended at 7am this morning me and our coach together with my team mates went on a breakfast in a Jollibee in St. Francis Square in Ortigas. I had a Crispy Bangus (milk fish) with fried egg and a slice of tomato and a cup of coffee while the rest had mushroom with beef, spaghetti, hotdog and sausages. We waited for two hours or so in Jollibee for Mega Mall to open so that we can go to DQ (Dairy Queen) to eat Ice cream which I spent another hundred bucks for a 12 oz of coffee with chocolate drink (don’t forget what it’s called).

On our way home, I passed by Video City in the mall and rented 5 movies. I always rent five at a time because of their promotion 4 + 1, where in you have a free 1 movie for every 4 movie rentals. Just like what we’ve been talking during the breakfast and in DQ, I rented inspiring and romantic comedy movies. I got I Love You Goodbye, Wimbledon, The Greatest Game Ever Played, You’ve Got Mail and Facing the Giants. I really wanted to watch at least one when I got home today but I also need to get enough sleep ‘coz I still have a shift at 10pm to 7am. I will just go home early tomorrow so that I can watch at least two films before my shift.

I really enjoyed the talk again with Coach Melai, Laurika, Albert and also Joebert (though he just listened most of the time) this morning. It’s always been us together almost every after shift. It’s just so nice to have these people all the time ‘coz you will never feel the pressure of the work no matter how complicated and tiring it gets. Looking forward to be working with this bunch of good people for the next few months or perhaps years.
