Thank You for my work..
Posted in ABAP, chicken chops, jansbautista, Nanyang Technology University, NTU, SAP, Singapore, workI went to Singapore looking for work.. I know I haven't had a lot of experience as a SAP consultant yet when I left my previous company.. So I wasn't expecting anything... I was hoping to get work in the same field.. BUT I came here fully prepared to take whatever job Papa God gives me..
And then He showed me how much He loves me...
I got work as a SAP Consultant, no less, and in a short period of time.. It's a HUGE blessing from Him, and not for a second do I forget that and appreciate what He's given me...:)
Of course there are both good and not-so-good things about my current project.. And I know I complain about the not-so-good part a few times.. ok, a LOT of times..;) ehehe.. like how my work is 2 hrs away from my house!.. so that's 4 hrs of commuting for me everyday!.. and how because of this, I've never taken so much sick leave in my lifetime as I have this past 6 months.. BUT I still know that I'm lucky to have a job.. And I'm still hopeful that sooner or later, I'll find the perfect employer for me..;)
And there are (of course) good things that came with my new work..:) like I'm happy to get a job in SAP.. and despite the other issues at work , I LOVE the ABAP-related challenges I get.. As early as my 1st month at work, I have learned so much already.. and I am so looking forward to learning MORE!!!
I'm also happy to have met new acquaintances from work..:) Despite the occasional nose bleed.. lol!!.. it's good to meet people from other countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, India), not just the locals here in Singapore... We could model for the united colors of benetton, huh?.. ehehe!!
Our work place is located in an industrial park here in Singapore called TUAS.. So the company I'm currently working for has a bus service taking it's employees to different places everyday to eat for lunch... Usually, I just bring my own baon, and eat in the office.. but I always look forward to Fridays!..:) we eat at one of the canteens inside Nanyang Technology University, where they have this Western stall and the food is great and cheap!..:) I used to order lamb chops for just $4, but then it takes a long time to cook lamb chops, and we have limited time to eat before the service bus arrives to take us back to our office... so I tried ordering chicken chops.. and it was great too!:) so since then, every Friday I have chicken chops for lunch, which costs $3.50 only!.. Looks good, huh?.. it tastes even better..:) Then just this Friday, I tried this dessert called Mango Mania.. Yummy!;) so I think I'll add this to my usual Friday lunch...;) ehehe!
So, that's my "new" work life here in SG..:) well... at least until we finish our project here and I get assigned to a different client... or I find a new employer..;) lol!.. Will keep you posted for updates!;)
