I dont want to have a No-Life life (0 ♥comments)

Posted on Saturday, Mar 1 at 12:45 am

P.S.: The issue may be sensitive to some group of people. Think twice before reading. This is the 2nd part of my frustration and anger.

In the past, friends are just a few buttons away. Now, friends are much distant and hard to find. Today, I need a listening ear desperately, that I even tried to call for help in msn, showing this nick “I just need a listening ear. Can someone call my mobile and talk to me?” But no one came after the SOS call. So, I messaged my close friends for a chat, but they are just too busy for me.. (i dont blame them). Finally, the fourth friend lent me her listening ear.

Working for 2 companies aint easy and if i continue on like this, I’m going to waste my precious youth and just get a boring and no-life life. This week is a busy week at Company G. A lot of things to key to the system, and data to re-key to another system. Every day, I’ve been working late, doing OT practically everyday. And because of working, I was physically tired, mentally exhausted. Staying in the office for too long is bad for health, and I have been having headache for the past few days.

When I get back home, I still need to work for Company S. Unlike the past, this week’s lunch break was what I anticipated the most. Because it is a time to get out of the office.. get out of this stressful and tense environment. Usually, I’m not excited to go for lunch.. but recently, yes.

Today was a maximum peak point that I can tolerate for Company S. My blood pressure practically shot up when I received one of my colleagues in Company S. He forwarded me one of the sms that the client sent to him.

The sms reads “Hi Alston. Please do setup the webhost ASAP, both my domain are pointed to your name servers, so my web is down!”

This sms was sent to me.. without the details of the clients, and that colleagues expect me to do something?

When there is things for me to help, the colleague will appear. When I need their help, they just keep slient. Recently, there’s a lot of clients asking for some technical support. Such emails should not be answered by me but the technical staff. BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY EMAILS THEY’VE SENT BACK TO THE CLIENT! I was told that whenever I use my own personal company email to reply, I need to cc a copy to the admin email. So, now, I dont even know if the technical staff reply the clients.

Mentioned in my previous entry, the emails that clients sent to the main administration email account will be then forwarded to my own personal email account. So does the technical staff. If they are reading and checking their inbox, they should be able to see the emails, and then give immediate reply if client asking for technical support. But practically, they didnt.

Sometimes I think.. is it worth it? Should I continue to work for Company S or just go? People taking me for granted that I will go online everyday,check the email, reply clients. So these few days, after working OT at company G, I’ve practically no time to check my Company S email. And no one in Company S bothered to at least help out or ask if I need any help..

Practically.. NO..

I dont want to have a No-life life, bury myself by working days and nights. Something has to be let go. I know that this kind of life is not what God wants me to do too. I had enough of this…
