Aiyooo. I got a question by a friends today. The questions are :
Hei Sarah, you were train in as a programmer and you want to talk about politic situation and household management? Get a live will you. Stick to your training and do what you know best lah....
Well to this friends I answered his questions, with questions, what did your exposed to yourself everyday? Only politic or to everything?
So he asked me again : When you start to work, your started with a technician programmer right?
I said NO. My first jobs after completing my studies was in Shipping/purchasing then Engineering, then Production Engineering, then Production, back to purchasing , then Training Assistance and now PA. There is no where in mt profession up to now I'll end up being a programmer.
So he keep quiet for a while then asked me again, why don't you try to work as a programmer when you finish your studies? Is this because you cannot find a jobs as a programmer when you first enter your job market?
My answer was, NO. I when I finish my studies the position available for programmer estimated about 100,000. The programmer was so rare even people with basic training was snatch up in a jippy.
But I decided to enter the totally different market at that times. I challenged my selves that I can breakthrough in the world where a Malay was a rare commodity.
I'm not interested in sales but I'm interested in the people who acquire things for everyone, and that's my friends was shipping and purchasing.
I loved making a deals. Finding the best priced was my passion. I loved it when I find the best deals and I loved to buy and buy and buy.
Now, purchasing is a god job for me. With someone else money, aka company, and makes a deals to get a better prices aka the lowest, I can fulfils my passions.
I also loved to meet people and try to understand them. That's why I moved around, a lot during that years. While I stay in the same company, when there was a vacant positions, I will applied just to changes my environment.
But mind you, I will only fill in the position where I still can makes a deals and buy somethings and finding the best prices aka lowest prices. I'm still following my rules and company rules hehhehheh.
So, to this friends, don't just read politic and stuck your brain in the box. An Uncle said, politic is useful but for a mere people like us it is not profitable.
Go out and explore the worlds. Read a lot on interesting fact out there. Try finding a new challenges. If not why don't you go Bunjie jumping or mountain tracking for a changes. It's accelerating.
For example, do you know that one of magnet man is a Malaysian and he inherited his capabilities to his grandchild hehhehheh.
So, there a lot of interesting fact other than politic. So do not limited yourself only in politic. Exposed yourself to every things hehhehheh.
Also, the reasons why I understand more about economies better than average i mean, not brilliant mind you, just above averages because of my past working experienced.
I'll understand how corporations or company works due to my experienced and I'm familiar with a lot of technical jargon's due to my experienced too.
As a purchaser, I need to be aware how the market changes and what cost will be involved and the risk involved when you send and buy some items in some countries. You need to speak in the same term with the person you dealing with and you also need to understand them.
That's is why, I guess I have a lot more tolerance to some people like this friends hehhehheh.
And now, an uncle witch I consider like a father try to educated me in how the money can makes the money and how to retain your property and multiply it.
He said to me, it will takes times if you don't have a lot and lots of money but slow and steady always the best way. You can gain an experienced and valuable lesson that way.
He asked me to read biz sections almost everyday. Yeah my friends, when your read it everyday, you will find a trend in biz. I'm more aware of it now and I think if you follow this advised you will find it too.
there's a rhythm in biz and understand it makes you aware what going on and opportunity's that available.
So, next times you read a newspaper or surfing the line, just takes time to read and surfs Biz information too.
I'm preferring newspaper coz I can read and reread it with RM1.50 than surfing thru Internet which if you go times and times again will cost you valuable bytes.
Actually it is more expensive online when your research about biz than buying a newspaper, if you know what I means hehhehheh.
So guys, open yourself out and broader your horizon. /don't only read about politic, read about somethings else too.Okay...hehhehheh.
