batch one

i'll be on training this week for four days. our company is crosstraining people for the different projects that we have. i dunno if you can call me lucky because we are the first batch to be in training... and this is the first time they are conducting such... a formal training... :)

yesterday, i had to go to work at 10am because it was the first day of our speech training. it was supposedly my off but they moved it to saturday. i guess it was a lucky break for me because it was a holiday (end of Ramadan) and i'll get paid double... hehehe...

just like the other speech trainings that i have attended, we were asked to introduce ourselves and was asked a random question. this was to gauge one's proficiency in spoken english. as usual our trainer/supervisor jot down her comments that she calls "constructive criticism". after everyone was finished, she read those comments to us. when its my turn for her comments, she just said she doesn't have any comments because i sound good. i dunno if i blushed or something because that was the first time i was praised for my spoken english. ang weird lang kse... alam ko naman na di ako ganun kagaling mag-english... tsaka i don't want my co-trainees to feel na pinapaboran nya ako... feeling ko tuloy ang taas ng tingin nya sa 'kin... which is hindi naman talaga... oh, well... that's her opinion... i just wish i can live up to her expectations...

prior to yesterday, my trainer/supervisor and i have been engaging in small talks whenever i bump to her in the pantry or when she's walking on the floor. she told me she liked how i sound. i think this is a mutual admiration because i always liked to talk to her... the reason being is the way she speaks and her accent is so contagious. i like the way she speaks (she speaks like lea salonga) and i look up to people who speaks well because one day i want to be in that position too... alam ko marami pa akong kakaining bigas... hehehe...

by the way, umpisa na ito ng paglipat ko sa inbound. they told us that not all of us will be transferred to inbound. but the way it is going, i think that i'll be transitioning soon to inbound customer service. i can't say i'm lucky but i hope this is the start of something else in my career. to my supervisors, i really appreciate the trust that you are giving me. salamat sa pagpansin sa mga kakayahan ko. i'll make sure i'll live up to your expectations... :)
