Teaching the Teachable

Recently I've met a friend of mine who used to be working in the same Company as I do.
She has a earned the reputation on her own for the last 4 years working in Pru. To me she obviously didn't possess the best of criterias & demographics. She's Indian, young, inexperienced, and very very small. Smaller than I am. Her achievements are beyond commensurable. She was the top sales yearly without fail. However her departure wasn't and never should happen to anyone of us... Which to me it was ugly and painful to what I can think of.

At one look I'll think that she is just born for this job. But is she? Not really. To her she is born to Teach. what she is for. Her passion. Somewhat to think of Teaching is the Noble job. Admist no matter how much money one reaps the joy of teaching can never be compensated. In a (my) world where results and monetary figures are highly credited, how would one be able to realise the sincere appreciations of their students.

At times I just feel like tearing within asking Y am I here? To earn, learn, yearn???
Probably it is to be taught of the world, eventually. Rewarding as well in the Materialistic manner.

In the end educating is the most rewarding career isn't it. Enlightening the young minds. At times like these aren't they still guranteed with the job and still have students flowing to them like never tomorrow. Perhaps I should and would one day...

Everything Happens for A Reason... & Life is indeed fair.

So we were all crushed, thrashed & washed off our integrity of selling investments, I would somehow have to thank the Lehmann's Brothers saga.

Lots of changes are happening around my world. The Bank that is.

I'm shifting back to North Bridge. To be precise shifting from the team I can't work with.

Hmm lost some inspiration to write, so lets me go in pointers whats happening in my life now.

  • did some trading
  • realised there's no such thing as making money only when the markets are good.
  • made profits when the prices slump too
  • my partnership with my banking partner improved and wanted to max out our best.
  • but sadly she's shifting to the branch & my entire working model changes.
  • I stick with the Loans manager now for referrals of Insurance cases & its gonna be a tough way to close deals.
  • I'm gonna do a part time job which is fire & building related.
  • My basic pay might increase too
  • I'm going to be bored as there will only be guys in my team.
  • I hope there be lesser roadshows
  • Companies and industry shares are like in cheap cheap cheap sale.
  • I realise its not that tough to get what I desire.
  • I've been neglecting my family
  • I've lesser time for social...
  • Perhaps faster route to million$$$.
  • What the hell,I'm still struggling
  • I might have more time to study & workout.
  • I have not been intimate for quite sometime... Just plain dating...
  • I miss my 'irreconcilable' badly... but bet he doesn't anymore...
  • All thanks to work & I hardly talk to him that much.
  • Apart from that I've forgotten my Ex... Thanks to work too
  • I miss making love too... Venus glory gone.
  • I would like to take a break
  • & perhaps go to Aust or Bali
  • I still cry at times when my work goes way outta hand
  • I feel there's isn't anyone by my side
  • Yet I'm cool about it as I chose such
  • I want to learn and play tennis

A Day of my life...

Monday-7am.

Wake up looking at the pressed clothes ready to wear.
However I'll not be eager to bath & wear them. I'll head straight to the kitchen for a cuppa.

Next looking at my big screen I'll tempted to turn it on & switch to channel 15. Previously automatic channels switched were channels 18 & 16. But my money and decisions dangle in the channel 15 & 25 (CNBC&Bloomberg). Immediately I start looking for clues that the economic is going with my favourable direction.

Good or bad-It shall be.

Next head for shower, get dressed up, fly off to work. Meeting is about to start in 5 min. & I'll be there on time with a lil mon morn run.

Meeting goes on for 2 hours.

After meeting lunch with the team. As usual we will start speaking about Boss's comments and topics.

Head to Office at Raffles. Over there I've a good peripheral view of the upcoming I.R & head down to Boat Quay for a quick booze before heading home.
