I'm back in hometown for almost 3 days now. Bless and peaceful~

So, what's been up?

I've confronted my boss about having so many things on my plate that I just can't focus and it would look like I'm slacking. So he did "speed-up" in getting the new Training Executive in. The other HR Executive would be in somewhere in September. At least one portfolio is off my shoulders now, so I thought.

This dude came in as the Training Executive, he's like way older than I am (way older). I don't mind giving him my portfolio or the work that I've done. But my philosophy is very simple; you don't know, you just ask and I'll teach you.

But I think due to the age gap, he thinks he has more experience than I am so he just did his thing. Surprisingly, my boss wasn't happy with the way he did it and has requested me to "supervise" or help this dude out, even worst, re-do. Now I look like I'm the one yang kedek ilmu. Dude, just ask! Jangan bodoh sombong will ya? I just don't have the time to ask "are you ok?", "nak I ajar macam mana nak buat this?" Boo-hoo!

After a few times, I got to play the "seniority" card (which I really hate). I gave him a few things proposal on training stuff to work on like one week earlier. The day before the submission date, when the boss asked, he looked at me like a dumb-ass. My pitch was higher than usual. And he just got the nerve to gave me this one stupid remark that I really pantang, "busy sangat ke you ni?" Bladihel this guy! You're just handling one bloody portfolio and you got the nerve to ask me that? You can't even handle that one portfolio and keep on staring at the pc all day long. Fudge!

You got to agree with me when I say, you got to have chemistry with your team. I mean, these are the people that you gonna work with 8-10 hours a day, for the whole year, for years to come. So the chemistry is important to make the team works, right? Yeah, I have this love-hate relationship with my annoying boss but I know how he works and he understands how I work and surprisingly it works. He's been asking me opinions on things, to attend other meetings with him and now it's like, I'm his wingman. Not proud to be one but, yeah..at least.

I am trying really hard to "accept" this training guy. He just need to step it up. I have no time to actually "hold your hand" through this. I don't know how the other new HR Executive. Just got to wait and see.

Dad's been asking me about work so many times. I don't really like to talk about it with him. He'll get the impression of me not doing my job. It's hard you know, to actually share certain work things with him. Different generations. Or it is because of the Gen-Y thing? Haha..
