Stress.. One and a half month in the job and yet not a single sale. Never know that corporate sale is so hard. A lot of red tape to cut through. Not this cannot is that cannot. Called so many times and yet not able to get the right person. Budget need to be approved by directors who are so busy I bet to take a shit. So busy that I had never even seen them in person nor hear from them. Email and his secretaries are all I get. I mean how busy can someone get? The worst part is my director barking at me down my neck. I understand where he is coming from as Sales are all about FIGURES. No sales no com and no business for the company. I really hope to be able to close some cases soon. He is a nice guy. I don't wanna let him and myself down.
Was sick on fri. As predicted in my blog. I was sneezing so hard that I was afraid that I will have nose bleeding again. Slept the whole afternoon away but not before completing Da Vinci Code. Great book, great plot and great ending. I am awaiting the movie version with bated breath. Went down for Cindy birthday. Well, at least I managed to pass her her gift(Five people you meet in heaven), caught half a show(House of fury), had some food and that's all. Went to meet Alson later on for some drinks and went home after that.
Sat was my lucky day. Well, it had started unluckily with the rain pouring down as I was about to go to a mahjong session with my colleagues. I lost $7 to them. It is not the amount that shocked me but the fact that I lost to them. No offence but they were quite newbie in mahjong and never had I thought that I will lose to them. Worse to follow was that I have another session with Poh, Ah Ho and Ah Hee. Was preparing to lose at least $30 and above to them. Considering that I had lost to my colleagues who were definitely kinder than them. Da Da. I won $47 at the end of the day or should I said at the beginning of Sun. We played till 10+ in the morning as they refused to let me go. They just can't believed that I won. Me too. I mean I had lost quite a tidy sum to them before this. In total I lost about near to $300 to them?? I never count but I had never won big. Until now. Haha. Seems that my gambling luck is getting better. ;)
Mon was spent on reading(David Beckham autobiography which I got from the library) and slacking. Today was quite slack too as my director is on MC. Preparing for a tough session with him tomorrow. Need to go through with him my sales report and target. Quite sure that he won't be happy with what he will see.
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
