Speechless

Date: 22 November 2010
Duration: 11.18 pm
I should be on bed now.
Well, i am on my bed but not " on bed"
Tomorrow i would be leaving for JB and then Kluang for few days. I shall be back by Saturday.^^
The company that i would be following this week is an electronic merchadising company. I have little information of this company and i shall learn more about this.^^ I feel grateful and great that i am given the chance to be exposed more.
Today was last day of Lee Kim being in this audit firm. She seemed delighted. I could feel she felt much better after taking this difficult decision.
The manager had a short conversation with Lee Kim and then after that Sri and I in the meeting room. He was trying to find out whether we are facing any problems.
It's too complicated. It's too " dangerous" or "stupid" to tell the TRUTH to someone who we just knew for a month plus. Even if he is a manager, how could i ever trust him?
He told us that the seniors complained to him that we, the trainees went off early and yet we groaned we could not finish our jobs. He required us to stay back if possible to help out those seniors.
I could still remember his words" we work as a team"
SRI and Me really felt so innocent. DID we really go back early?
Well, i knew Sri could not finish his job, the delay was not caused by going back early afterall. So far, i could still meet my deadlines.
I swear to God, it was seniors who required us to drive a seperate car so that WE COULD GO BACK EARLIER after we finished our job.
YES, we went off earlier than seniors. YET, we did not go back at 6 o'clock sharp. We left client's office as late as 8pm. We were not back late all the days, neither were we back EARLY as well.
He asked us for our feedback. In that situation, i really felt speechless.
SPEECHLESS~
In a work place, there would always be men of dual faces. I am not specifying anyone. It's just a conclusion i could make for today conversation with the manager.
Another conclusion from last week job, regardless what status you are in the society, ones should always be respected.
Even if being a maid, she still has the right to be respected.
Why not a trainee?
Despite all these, i still feel thankful to the manager for his time to have little conversation with us.
Tomorrow journey would be an enjoyable ones, i would enjoy this oustation job too~^^ Afterall, it's my first job oustation, and it's my fourth case in WEEK 6. Times flies, it has been one and a half months in working life.
So much so , I AM REALLY ENJOYING MY WORKING DAYS.
The seniors are helpful, but i do not know how truthful they are. As aforementioned, there would always be men of dual faces. Not to my surprise, there would always be one in that office too.
Not to worry, i know i could handle this~ I could be lady of more than two faces too. I am a mirror, an imitator.
Sometimes, i have no choice but choose to be a hypocrite.
It's late, i shall off to bed now. Tomorrow would be leaving as early as six am. ^^, perhaps i would not be posting new posts for these few days.

Mirror mirror on the wall.

Date:19 November 2010
Duration:10.59pm
I am just like a mirror, reflecting how you are treating me. I would be softspoken and truthful when the person in front of the mirror is a sincere person....That's me, simple ans straight forward.
I posted the chinese version of the above expression in FACEBOOK, glad that GRACE quoted me. LOLZ.
Well, it was kind of frustrated when you are not being respected just because you are freshies. Freshies do not mean they are idiots. Ones always forget that they have once being a freshy too.
You are saying that it's like as if you are doing it together with me, i really felt it so when you even want to check if i have selected the correct samples. Ridiculous, don't you think so?
Well, just a tiny matter and tiny person that pass-by my life, not worth a mention afterall.
I was rude, i admitted. And i am sorry for that.
I was doing journal voucher review for the companies. The working purpose is to ensure that all journal posting are approved and strongly supported before posted into General Ledger.
It was actually easy provided your DEBIT and CREDIT knowledge is mastered well. Sometimes, i was really confused by its entries. I was a bit slow in reasoning its logics of the entries.
I would get used to it soon. ^^ just need some times to digest and STOP AND THINK~~
Well, we talked on the way back and Alex was driving today, I learnt something from him, and i found back something from him too. I found back the part of me that has lost ever since i enter the working life. I almost forget my purpose of being here.
Thanks Alex, i remember now. It's not all about rushing, it's about understanding what you are actually doing.
I am tired. Again, i brought back a little job. But this time, i gotta do abit of digestion.^^

破斧乘舟--

十一月十八日
有时候,没有退路未必是件坏事。
LEEKIM决定辞职了。 她无法面对如此压力的工作。 我明白她的压力,心里上的压力。
她有一个温馨的家,一对体谅的父母,一对永远支持她到底的父母。她也没有金钱的烦恼,当然可以潇洒的离开。
压力嘛,谁没有,那项工作没压力呢? 读书时也压力吧~
我好幸运。。因为我总会遇到贵人,帮助我解决难题的贵人。
谢谢Ms.Hau今天的帮助与耐心。
谢谢Ms.Quek今天的指导。
也谢谢Annie今天的指导,虽然说真的, 我并不是很喜欢跟你共事。 “疑人不用,用人不疑” 干嘛不自己做呢?如果你不能相信你身边的人。。 难道不觉的自己很矛盾吗?
下个礼拜还得面对你,的却有点不想。。
。 不过, 我知道,你不会为难我。我也可以顺利完成手上的工作的。。。 我对我自己的办事能力还有点信心…………
明天,必须完成五间公司的JOURNALVOUHCER REVIEW呢!!!
SAMPLE 会很少的啦。。礼拜一会FINALISE~…………
好期待每一天的学习机会。。每一天的经历和领悟。。。谢谢我身边的每一个人。。。

"We are young, but not for too long"

Date: 17 November 2010
Duration:1330
Today is public holiday. As i mentioned in yesterday post, i brought back unfinished work home to be done today. Well, i feel kind of lazy to get it started.
I visited a blog a few minutes ago and i found it rather meaningful for these few tips the blogger posted in one of his blog posts.
He is another undergraduate of MMU. Malacca is really so small that you could find MMU products almost everywhere and anywhere. The company that i am in now is employing many MMU graduates including the audit manager himself. ^^
I am not trying to be boastful. MMU graduates( of earlier batch) ) possess better communication skill and planning capability. They are not only surviving, but they are performing as well.^^
As for the later batch of MMU graduates, the endurance and capabilities might not be as strong as the seniors MMU-ians.
Talking back about the blog i visited, i really like these few phrases
" AUDIT should be all you do is to THINK rather than all you do is to TICK~"
and another one
" We are young, but we are not young for long"
" Degree cert just bring you to the door of interview, and it is. that's it. "
Well, these few phrases are so TRUE.
I was not using my brain at first in AUDITING, thinking that it's just a stupid job serving compliance purpose and adding little values. Well, actually, if i were to use my brain to think, it would have made the job more meaningful.
TO do audit, you really need to think and not blindly ticking and finishing the working papers.
We are young, soon, we would age too. I mesmerised the time when i was still in secondary stage. Seeing the younger generations walking in Mahkota and DP. I feel, i am not that YOUNG anymore.Time flies, and do make every decisions with no regrets~
Many are degree holders, many are ACCA cert holders too. All these t qualifications are just fames to compete further. Rather, to survive in working world, it's another matter of learning and coping- not only in work, but it includes social network as well.

Finish blogging,
hmm, i shall start my work soon. ^^

^^--> Holiday Tomorrow~

Date: 16 November 2010
Duration: 9.10pm
It's a really EMOTIONAL day.
Lee Kim is on the thought of resigning. She said she really could not cope with the deadlines.
I understand. When you are thrown with an assignment that you have no idea how it was actually computed, and the guidance given helps little, and are expected to GET IT DONE and JUST GET IT DONE in a very short duration... you would really feel depressed.
To be frank,i felt stressed too.
But at the same time, i felt blessed. I am always blessed with luck. Of all the companies i took and the working papers i was assigned, they did not really give me so much of hard time. I did face difficult time of course, but someone was always there to help me. ^^ Thanks for law of attraction.
Well, i understand that the seniors are not the one who want to chase after us. They are under stress too. They are even in a worser situation.
Tomorrow would be a holiday.^^
I brought back files to resume my work tomorrow. If i don't, i would not be able to give the seniors what they want.
Well, seniors, please tolerate my errors if there is any. Speeds produce errors sometimes. ^^
Tomorrow i shall resume my job.
Let's rest well tonight.

Specialization~

Date: 15 November 2010
Duration: 11.38pm
I am tired.
I have just finished editing the loan convenent review. The seniors changed the way of doing this week as the progress of audit is kind of slow. We are under "specialization" method which mean if you are assigned to do review of loan convenant and banking facilities, you would need to do that for the eight companies. In this way, we could finish it faster.We were told that next week, we would be doing another eight companies, of total, this holding company comprise of 16 companies( only include companies that we are auditing, subsidiaries that do not fall under our scope are not taken into account).Too bad, i am not following this company next weeks onwards.^^
Frankly speaking, i dislike this way of working. I prefer following task by company as you would be able to capture a clearer picture of the whole. For instance, i would not know the main customers of one of subsidiaries company if i did not do the sales transaction test. So as when i do the banking facilities listing - commodity facilities to finance ninty percent of its invoice from customers - for instance TESCO. I would be in a much more clearer position in doing my audit working paper in that way.
Despite that, i still thanks seniors for all the guidance and assignment of task. They are themselves busy with higher level of audit which is much more complicated. Furthermore, they are facing much more pressures from the partners.
I guess tomorrow i could finish the task. Thanks God that the review of banking facilities and addition of new banking facilities are of several. I just need to add in the new banking facilities, review the new convenant if any and update previous working papers. That's done.
I am always so lucky^^.
I just knew this morning my next week job would be in Kluang, Johor.
I have been undergoing my training for a month and a day. This is really kind of soon to have outstation job with two seniors.
Well, i still thanks for the assignment. Kluang is better than Penang, isn't it? It's nearer as compared to Penang. LOLZ.
^^ THIS WEEK TASK could NEVER be DELAYED!..
I would finish any job that's on my hand as the person to be reported to would be LC( the partner). No kidding, babe.
Night~
