my first time.

to work that is! hehehe i thought i'd share my day with you, that is if you're interested to know, anyways! :p

yesterday was really great! it was a bit slow on the uptake since it was my first day but nevertheless, feel na feel ko na office girl ako. i mostly read stuff yesterday. then for lunch, i was out for 2 hours! taena! kala ko nga il be late, e i'll be attending my very first meeting pa naman after lunch. the newbies that i was with during lunch break weren't the least bit worried because they had their bosses with them. my boss was back at the office preparing for the meeting and i was at eastwood, eating! nyahaha! :p

i had a gooooood impression on my first day. the company's great, the people are great, the workplace is great, the job's great (although im sure that in a matter of weeks, i'll be writing here again to vent pent up stress! nyahaha)!!!

URC's a good company. most of their products are market leaders. i'm handling the Magic brand, which includes Magic Flakes, Magic Creams, etc. they also make the Jack and Jill stuff like Piattos, Chippy, etc. great company. the atmosphere's very light and not so uptight. even the big bosses like the GM eat lunch with us. haha :p but the compensation and benefits don't place too high on my scale. but hey, i'm not after the money. if it's the learning you're after, grabe, this is a great company. in fact, ang daming bago sa Brand kasi ang bilis ng turnover ng employees. ang dami napa-pirate! as in!

the people. veeeery accomodating and nice. PLUS, PLUS! dami gwapo...nyahaha! *blush* well not naman SUPER dami but enough so my eyes could have a feast everyday! :p of course since first day, medyo shy shy and quiet effect pa ko. next week, nyahaha! :p but no matter coz everyone understands naman how it is to have first day jitters. great people, great people! what's more, Brand people are REALLY young..as in..so everyone could relate with the other. at eto pa, ANG DAMING SOUTH PEOPLE! yeeeah! no problem na kaming lahat sa transpo since we could all have a carpool. punyeta! ang mahal na ng gas and toll, thank goodness for the restraining order!

i was scared nga baka pagtripan ako since bago..buti nalang 3 kaming bago..nyahaha! di ako nagiisang gagaguhin! :p

my first meeting. it was exactly how i imagined it to be. the crackers group had a meeting with the advertising agency because the agency people had to present something. the big people were there (the GM, the Biscuits division head, my boss, the advertising director...SHET!) and my knees were shaking out of fear na baka pagsalitain ako..buti nalang hindi naman ako pinasalita! i sat there listening to the arguments as they progressed. i was given some stuff to read beforehand and i was told to make comments. wala lang...the discussion is pretty similar to MARKPRO, MARKAD2, and thesis arguments. even the same as some of Tapat arguments. although takot parin baka tanungin ako bigla kung ano tingin ko sa isang bagay. pero i'm happy to know that the advertising director and i have the same comments and questions, although syempre she was able to articulate it better. hehehe hindi pa sabaw utak ko after 8 months! YEHEEEY! :p

anyways, so far, so good. first day was fun. can't wait for my first week. sana it'll go just as good! i've waited 8 loooooong months for a job like this.

i must say, the wait was worth it. :)

bow.
