Hey, Miss Busy

I realized I have not updated this blog for well over a month. See, apart from my own projects and everyday tasks at work, I got so busy with training on other projects (so in case there’s an increase in volume, everyone can actually help out). We also have weekly video coaching and meetings and were asked to update our project manuals. 

I guess the “honeymoon period” for WFH employees is over as we’re expected to deliver more already.   

But I won’t talk shop and bore you with these details. What I’m actually getting at is that by the time my shift ends, I don’t want to do anything that requires my laptop anymore. Thus, blogging took a back seat.

The introvert is out and about

I’m sorry if I haven’t been updating my blog as much as I wanted to. I got busy, as I’m back to a five-day workweek since last Monday (Oct. 5). Thankfully, our company managed through despite the challenging industry environment and was able to get everyone back to normal pay, just as promised.  

This is good news as my salary was reduced to half since August and it was quite a struggle because it’s not like I took a break from my bills and obligations. Then again, all’s well now and I’m just grateful.

On one’s uppers

Whoever you are reading this blog, I sincerely pray you’re safe and getting by. We’ve all heard this many, many times in the past six months, that we are in unprecedented times. People are not just anxious about the thought of probably catching Covid, but also of the fact that many of us are on shaky financial grounds.
