Chemical change on me
I was informed by HQ to complete third round budget by Sep 12 due to update exchange rate and newly adopted divisional structure. Without taking weekend into consideration , Instruction was given one day eariler than deadline. a traditional Chinese holiday, a important day for family unite.
Short notice comes to me with no surprice as I am too familar with their working style. I ever wondered if they could give us a bit more time or probably to say if they could have better time managment in order to secure better quality from us and themselves. That is real weakness from head of our controlling.
Tight schedule is okay and acceptable occassionally . but not at too high frequency especially for some very crucial matters. Budget is used for one year. therefore in my eyes It was quite a serious matter and need to be more cautious. A notice in a rush could lead to certain areas are not considered .An early instruction or notice could avoid such risk as people have time to raise it up .
I studied the instruction and then assgined my coworker to do that .Again I noticed they ignored one important step in budget process in order to secure a more accurate figures.It needs to be done in sequence by different intercompany.One or two days is definitely not enough to make that since we have time difference.Moreover It will impact future figures in next one year. I would have picked up call and talked to them if this had occurred two year ago. but now, I just ignored that and asked my colleagues to do the revision and complete today.I know there is sth chemical happened on me.I thought I was a bit different when I joined the company. I treated this company as my own at this point equal to my family if not more important. If It was before I would not go home until I was sure that everything done. But today. I left office while my colleaging are still working on that . I only left the office 40 minutes later than noraml off-work time.I had another arrangement I rushed out .
I ever regarded my work as everything . I could not sleep well when there was sth uncertian or unfinished .I even had them in dream .I must call them to check everything is just going fine if I am absent .
Not so badly.Keep deadline and trying to do sth during working time is sth I am still holding on.
Fortunately My colleagues took some character from me .They were taking care of it . two hour later. I got a call from my colleague everything is done. Thanks GOD.
Times are changing quickly. I had seen chemical change on me . I lost some character I was ever proud of . I become more and more commom.or evern worsen.
Is this good or bad? Is this a trend for a person who grow up with ups and dows.hehe I want to know how you think of this change. Did you have same change on you ?

- We were educated to be responsible and personal sacrifices for the good of company or whatever institution are highly praised as ultruism. But we were never told that we should be fairly treated, we should be respected and valued, our legitimate rights should be protected. Why should employees suffer because of the poor planning and poor management of the executives.
But we should face all those irritating issues with calm, because it's normal to encounter problems in our work, in our life. Surely the management of the company are not trying to make people suffer. I think their purpose is to better manage the company, but perhaps the effect is not so good. In my previous job, I felt the boss of the company are unreasonable, even though I still cannot agree with many of the practices in that company, I am no longer furious about those problems now. They have their perspective of seeing things. We feel differently because we are in a different position.
Some of my personal thoughts.

- to be frank,my friend, i read your this article once again. when i read to its end, i like it or say i like its writer in some extent, because i seem seeing a past me from your words. in our daily life, work occupies most of our time, except sleeping and eating. but all people spend the same time on their job, but not all of people put their heart and soul on work things at all. this is the difference between different clerks in all kinds of companies or what other enterprises. from your words, i judge you are a serious clerk to achieve your work goal,at least in your understanding and view. you are a stronger person in work field. that's the only base leading yourself go to your future success. each person make a social role when we worked whether we admit or not. females is not a exception too. i like such modern females who have two care in their family and work. obviously you are a worker female. merely in your this budget affair doing, you relaxed some. don't be so self-reflection to yourself just due to the small thing, this change is not as so serious as your say. wit the time's passing year by year, surely some change on everybody, but if you are what like from origin, you will be what a natural yourself. i think a person't nature difficult to change at all. maybe my viewpoint not right, maybe some one-sided. it's mine indeed.

I toally agree with you that we ,human being have different perspective of seeing things.All things can be understandable or forgivable if we can see sth on others' shoes.

- Hi Snowflying. I am afraid you are thinking highly of me. I was a bit strong and very responsible person in the past . but now I am a bit vulgar. I become more flexible, less diligent, I don't see company's intereste over my own :(- any longer. you must laugh when you read here, but I was a bit silly in the past.
Some nature is born yesterday, I agree with you .It is not so easy to change complete.That is why sometimes I reflect myself If I am heading on in right direction. Of course Maybe It is not so serious as I described here, But I am a bit afraid gradually I will be a person I dislike.
hehe
