I really missed blogging. It’s mainly because I’ve been kept busy with my new job.

So how is it? Well, here’s a story I would like to share. I was driving home with Conne one night after a long day’s work. We were both toxic-silent the first few minutes of the ride when all of a sudden I blurted out: “You know what, I really love my job!” To be able to blurt the words out without giving it much thought meant that I really love what I’m doing right now. Even though the job functions, compared to my previous jobs, were a bit the same, the new work environment really helped me look at my job in a different light. The DirectWithHotels culture, aka Zimmie culture, was just what the doctor ordered. I remember an old adage that goes, “If you love your work, then you’ll never work a single day for the rest of your life.” Well, amen to that!

And so, this Zimmie promoter says: “Full steam ahead!”

I finally did it. I officially tendered my resignation yesterday, which takes effect on October 10th. Two months ought to be enough for a good turnover.

It’s been a hard decision on my part. WIS is a great company, career-wise, but some things are just more important.

Working in Manila means that I’ll be with my family again. No more long drives to and from Clark, and no more Monday sickness and no more yearning for Fridays! I’m coming home!

I’ll soon say goodbye to sleepless nights. I’ll get to see Conne everyday, and I’ll get to see CJ grow up!

I finally have my priorities straight.

I had my baptism of fire. Today’s my first day as a member of senior management, and it started out with a bang. With that being said, the Spidey fan within me affirms my childhood hero’s bitter pill: “With great power comes great responsibility..”
