I realised that the comments box at the side of my blog is buggy. Considering that I haven't bothered about it for so long, maybe I should just remove it, and go and enable comments on my blog (not like there will be).
Work has been on my mind. I thank God for granting me the opportunity to work in this office as my first job. In fact, I do see my position in this team as extremely advantaegous (wah I use big word) as a starting point to go do whatever I want to. However, I also see that given my closeness to the corporate team, it is extremely difficult to request for a change, especially since I don't wish to leave this company.
Recently, I found out that there's a reason colleagues are colleagues; colleagues are not friends for good reason. There were 2-3 of these colleagues that I kind of trusted and thought of them as friends. However, due to a 3rd party, I found out that they were intentionally hiding some information from me, in the excuse that "it's not nice for me to know", yet they did it anyway knowing that if I found out, I would be grossly hurt.
I now see it as my fault for ever thinking of them as friends. I thought they viewed me as such; but apparently, they view their own office friendships as way more important than not hurting a so-called friend of theirs.
I guess this is also a wake up call for me to get off my ass and do something about my need for a change of jobs. I was holding back partly because one of these "friend" had a major event in which I needed to help out in, if not he would not be able to handle the workload. Since he doesn't spare a thought for me like that, I don't see why I should hold back and not put in the extra effort to get out of this place.
Thankfully, I had the long weekend to mull this over, lest I prematurely tender without having a backup plan.
Anyway, shopping with the BF later. At least something to look forward to after yet another drab day at work.
