In life, good things doesn't come easy... All of us have known that. But we realize it only when we go through tough situations. Yeah I am going through that kind of situation right now when I am in a fix as to what I should do.
I always feel that I am God's favorite child. And God will take care of me if I give the fullest from my side. So when a dream job opportunity came my way, I knew that its God's plan for me to realize my dreams. Things went on so easy for me till the time I got the official job offer. I was surprised that how can I get the offer without giving an interview. Also, the company needs my knowledge and experience so desperately that they made the job description tailor made so that my resume can fit in that job profile. Everything was/is going well in that aspect. Its a win-win situation. I need them (after doing my current crappy, horrible job) and they need me... It couldn't believe that I can be so lucky that my dream job will drop on my lap just without any efforts from my side ...
So yeah, things were easy till I got a job offer. My real tuff situation started when I had to leave my current job. First of all, I am in my current job just for 3 months (I normally don't switch my job so frequently.. but my current job is really crappy and I know I can't stay here for a year as my contract says). Secondly there will be some monetary loss since I have to break the contract plus I have to buyout one month notice. In between I was in a little doubt about whether I am doing the right thing.. However, Vishal reminded me that its ur dream job.. And don't loose on this opportunity...
So I put my papers. No response from my consultant. After 2-3 days, I tried initiating a talk about this. They called me to their office... When I went there, I was totally shocked of what I had to go through. They blamed me for spoiling their company reputation, threatened me that they will spoil my name in Singapore job market by giving me bad reference. I had never faced such a immature and unprofessional talk in my life. It was my call to keep quite and not to response to them in the similar way. (Maybe I did wrong, maybe I should have shouted back at them like how they did.. but I was totally unprepared for this kind of talk). It was like I was facing a fish market kind of fight. Now they are not providing me with a exact relieving date. My next employer is saying that tell them you will go to the police and complain about her, also tell them that I will go and complain to MOM about the way that they are behaving. I have not done anything wrong, so I need not worry... But it worries me little if I have to go to police or MOM. Or if I have to just stop coming to office. Maybe becos I have not done anything like this before. Maybe I am not sure of its repercussions... Or maybe I just thinking what others will think about it .. (gosh!! .. I know so idiotic). I am just hoping that God will show me the path...
I still curse the day when I took the current offer. I should have investigated as how my consultant is and should have seen more finer points of my contract. Yeah, everyone does mistakes.. I also did by taking up this offer. I know I have to face the consequences... But this is also temporary phase. It can't go on for long... This will also pass through sooner or later...
This phase has also added some experience in my life.. Also made me realize that no good thing comes easy... We have to work for it some way or another... And I know whatever happens, it happens for good.. When God is on my side, nothing can go wrong... :)
