Working Life

A week has passed. A week of working life in fact. Now i understand a little of what a life a working person goes through. And i can say that it is not easy! It is tiring. Every moment of your life is somehow directed to your working life.

This week, most of the time i spent awake is in the office, which is from 8am to 6pm. I can barely see the sun except a few rays from the windows to indicate whether it's cloudy or not, and the roof to tell me whether it's raining. Only one hour of lunch break. Well, for me, it is not as tiring as my colleagues' because i'm just an intern which not much responsibility is placed upon me. Now i know that office life is truly not my thing. I can do the things in the office, effective (=P) and all, but i don't think i want to spend my life working in an office, dealing with products, and facing the computer all the time. I love a work that can interact and impact people's lives. Office work is too vain for me i guess (apology to office workers if any are here).

Now i'm starting to appreciate Labour's Day. To understand why they need a day for workers. Well, workers who are hardworking. Truly respect those people who can stand through these their whole life. Sometimes i feel why can't they take a work which is more meaningful than office works. But i guess i can't judge them. Sometimes there are simply no choice for them to choose and also perhaps many mouths are waiting to be fed at home thus they can't be too picky about jobs.

Anyway, truly learnt a lot of things. And ahh, i guess i need to learn some office exercise too to ease my back and shoulder pain. I'm getting hunched after such long hours of sitting!

All in all, i thank God for bringing me through this. Even though this will just be a one month of working life, i pray that it will not go in vain in terms of understanding certain things in life, and perhaps i don't have to use the Microsoft Excel again, but then again, i might!
