more moolah, more responsibilities...

The last time, i posted about the salary increase i recently received. 'twas all about the blessing and how much millions 'twas worth thanking for. sure, i's thankful enough for that moolah! but what didn't hit me was, the thing that i was supposed to sacrifice in return of the little moneki i got. i was so full with excited nerves and cells all trapped up in my brain, all bcoz of the blessings (ohryt, more money!), that i didn't realize am being stupid to forgot that in every lil good thing, there is a price. and that price in this case, is... of course! everybody in the room know the answer! -- work, work, and more work! what else!

yes, i know i really gotta work in return of the pay (with the added hefty increase of course!). it was what am here for, in the first place. But because my brain was so busy sending my body messages about that monetary stuff, only monetary pleasures and nothin' else, i got all so wrapped up with all these stuff that i only realized now that the new tasks were going to be this, nosebleeding! yeeeyyy!!!!

so what does this mean? it is going to be the end of my "lax" times here in front of my pc. it is going to be the end of my endless hopping from one website to another website to read and read and read. it is going to be the end of my frequent browsing and sometimes online shopping at ebay. and, of course, it is going to be the end of more napping times! *sigh* sometimes, you really gotta be a little mature enough to learn that you should not have these good things because you are supposedly working your ass off to give them what they've paid you for. (but are we really paid enough? was merely askin, boss!)and yes, i admit it. i've been very lax here at the office that i thought i kinda overused their resources and stuff so much so that i still can't get used to working like this too demanding a work/task. you say i've been abusive? pardon me pardon me... im trying to change those lazy habits. give me that right. and anyway, i believe most of us here have been abusive of their positions. korek, mga peeps?Ü

well, i still can do that reading and reading and reading stuff. but only this time, it gotta be websites about aftermarket brand parts, their specs, functions, etc... etc... another, yeeeeeyyyy!!!! these days, there is so much to learn about all these car parts i've no idea where on earth did they come from. funny. i've been writing stuff on all these auto parts you wouldn't think were in existence, yet am still not sure if i can point the exact things i've been researching and writing about for three years right under the hood of your car, or inside its wheels and tires.

yes, am that too booboo! hahhaha!!!

but, back to the stupidity or, okay, to say it a little harsher, memory deficiencies...:)

we, employees, who have just recently received hefty pay increases, must be working all our brain off to make creative, technical, and whatsoever, auto parts articles because that was what the increase is for... don't forget that with every additional pay, there is something you have to put more labor on... even if you think the increase is still -- KULANG! hahhahaha! peace to our bosses up there! but seriously, keep your brain informed that "with every monetary increase, there's gotta be responsibility in return."

aww, i gotta end this rant. i've been writing and writing nonsense here. and here i am, supposedly finishing the nosebleeding task and not complaining because im paid to work. but you see, i gotta blog this out! i gotta blog this out! like anybody else who has had enough of the keywords!

salary, salary, salary... and increase!


I wasn't really expecting some things to pour in, but here I am, wondering how on earth did I get a little lucky from somewhere and receive something that I did not really ask for. Judging from the employee evaluation rating I recently got from my bosses, you wouldn't expect me to anticipate some more compensation (aka, salary raise).

It has been a while since I received hefty raise. And since I wasn't really performing well from the past 2 years (or so they believe), I had stopped dreaming of a bigger salary rate. Not that I am complaining with my old rate. It's more than enough for my current financial needs. **I will crave for bigger compensation in the next few years when my needs are bigger, but not now.**

Regarding my position here in the company, I guess that's another story. Some of my co-workers have been very vocal how much they wanted to see my position elevated too. True, I haven't done anything to improve my work status. But I guess, I got many things and issues to settle myself with that I wasn't able to pay particular attention to that one aspect of my life. It was something that I thought I don't need.

And although I admit I'd be very much happy (who wouldn't?) if they'd finally notice my capacity and worth, it was originally not my goal that I be elevated from the current position I am holding. No, im not being a hyprocrite here... Or maybe, you don't believe me for saying that. But right now, it's just that I have other important things to achieve and I think embracing a higher degree of responsibility is something that i believe i can't handle right now. But still, who knows? Maybe in the next few months, I can but I still don't know... anyway, let's wait and see..

But going back to the salary raise issue, it was an achievement. For someone who always don't expect too much and just take the day as it is, getting a little over a grand pesoseses:) in a monthly basis in addition to how much I was receiving is something worth celebrating for. In fact, the day that Miss Mel told me how much I earned in the last six months for the rate increase is also one of the happiest days of my stay here in MBSTEK Corporation.

Well, what can I say? I guess, thank you, thank you, thank you! It may be little for some, but it is a blessing worth of millions thanking for. As for the status? Well, never mind for now... Just lemme enjoy my stay here...

So, anything else to say? Till the next hefty raise! Way to go, jirl! AJA!
