Of HR functions from another HR.

June 14: Took a half-day sick leave

June 15: Food Tasting at the Palmier

June 16: Took a half-day sick leave; Fever was at 39.9 degrees already (and she

Doesn’t give a damn)

June 17-19: Was on sick leave due to pneumonia; thank God it’s not dengue; spent

The week at my cousin’s place.

June 20: Went back to work; Found out from an officer that she wanted me to have

a formal turnover before taking my sick leave (the nerve!) and she is

actually questioning why I informed her only through text!

June 21: Was feeling better already but was advised by the doctor to take things

Slowly

June 22: Typhoon Frank; but enjoyed the day nonetheless because my honey is

With me; cancelled prenup pictorial

June 23: Talked to an officer of a company I am handling and she requested me to

Join their activity. I told her I can’t because I was sick, and she told me

That I should join them since it was already a week since I had been sick

And that I should take this time to bond with the employees (hmmm…)

Composed my final letter, but haven’t emailed it yet

June 24: Didn’t join the activity; I’d rather risk my work than my health and my

life. Still thinking when I should send the letter.

June 25: writing in this blog just to express my anxieties…

MORAL OF THE STORY:

  • A lot can happen in a span of a few days.
  • You are insignificant to them. What’s important is that you do what you’re supposed to do no matter what it costs you.
  • They don’t believe it when you say you’re sick. You aren’t sick if you can still walk and talk (and text). They would probably believe you if you tell them you’re dying.
  • If you’re no longer happy, quit! It’s not worth all the psychological and emotional stress they bring you.
  • You deserve to be treated better; don’t let anyone put you down.
  • There are people who love you and who will stay with you through thick and thin. And these are called family and friends. You would know who truly cares in times like these. And thank God I have found them…

And to all others who don’t give a damn…the time is near…I am ready to go…It will be your loss…

My Mommy Entry # 7

My In My Womb 3d/4d Ultrasound Experience Last Saturday, we had our 6th checkup with our OB-Gynecologist. So far, everything's ok. I passed my Glucose Challenge test, but I still need to cut on my sugar intake. We were also able to hear our little one's heartbeat. Next week I will be having my Tetanus Toxoid shot -- scary!! After the checkup, we proceeded to Makati for our scheduled 3d4d ultrasound at In My Womb. I have heard lots of great reviews about this ultrasound center so we have decided to have our ultrasound there. Their center is located at 2f, The Link Bldg, Ayala Makati. The building is beside Landmark. Before proceeding, we had our lunch first at Ineng's Special BBQ -- great food, terrible customer service! After eating, we then proceded to the 2nd level. We were greeted by a courteous nurse and I told her that I was scheduled for an ultrasound with Dra. Ramos. I would actually like to have the procedure done by the owner, Dra. Shiela Illescas, since i ...

Our Weekened Getaway @ Tagaytay (a.k.a. My Post Birthday Celebration)

As mentioned in my prev ious post, hubby and I were planning to have a weekend getaway in Tagaytay. And thank Go d it pushed through! The weather was terrific that day des pite some rain showers during the week. It was a gr eat gift f or me. I was so excited the day before our trip that I wasn’t a b le to do an ything at work. Hehehe…I actually just searched for places to go in Tagaytay. I have been there many times a nd I wanted to go somewhere we both haven’t been to. Unfortunately, there was not so much choice for us since we will be commuting and most of the unexplored sights in Tagaytay can only be reached if you have your own vehicle with you. Oh well, since hubby and I are together in this trip, it r eally didn’t matter a nymore. So, without further ado, here’s a rundown of our last week end’s experience: FRIDAY, JUNE 12; It was a holiday but we opted to wake up early so that we could already get ready for our trip. We left our house at around 9:00AM....
