This time, it’s from my other supervisor… But she’s not my supervisor. It’s just that I’m assisting her in her work, so literally she’s the boss, and I’m the assistant.
She had a look at the way I work, and say “wah, you’re better than me leh!”, refering to how I organise my area.
I think, it’s probably because she had TOO much things on her table, that’s why she can’t keep her things organised. As for me, on the other hand, I know I keep forgetting things, so I like to keep my place neat and tidy so that I remember where I put my stuffs. Just a habit I had during my NS period.
Well, to get such a compliment from such a senior, I think I do stand a chance in getting a place in their hearts. Who knows, one day I might be offered a higher position after gaining some experience doing this job for quite a while.
Just 3 weeks and I can start feeling all the pressure on me. Well, I don’t really have “stress”, but the workload is really something! A slight mistake can cost $$$ to the company, and I don’t want to risk my name under those problems. Especially when it comes to money.
Oh ya, another colleague also complimented me regarding my curiosity to find out more about something. I was asking her (can you imagine how many ladies are working in this company???) about something to do with the data, then I refer her to a previous example done by my upperstudy. Then I commented that, if this is the figure, I highly doubt that that is the “real figure” because the figure that I got was almost 1 million, while my upperstudy got less than 10k? Wayyyy too much difference. That’s why I try to seek help.
Anyway, it seems like there are some loopholes or “style of doing work” going around. I will have to change that. I don’t want to do things “because this is how you do it”. I want to find out “why this is like this” and stuff.
I think being too curious is a bit dangerous too.
