A month has past

It has well been month into my new job, unable to consider it as my career as yet or ever...

Things are getting from busy to busier... nothing much I can do but do my fair share of work load...
Like what Marc said that it's only within your capabilities and control...
I think most of the things aren't within my control, all I could is to work more efficiently than always to keep myself head above water...

On the whole, I'm still enjoying what I do, I felt good well the deal goes well, even though there's not value tied to it...
On the other hand, I'd realised the value of having a value on your work scope...

Dollars and cents have always been one common motivation and it is very apparent in and around CBD...

Was having lunch with the guys (all my bosses) and listening to their conversations, learning and appreciating from their experiences... Was very enlightening listen to my boss from HK...
He controls tons of money and "tons" of manpower, yet he is yearning dearly to be what my boss in SIN does...

From the bits and pieces, I gathered, that he wants to be more involved in the business side of things, which implied the financial aspect of the business... by so meaning the revenue generating division...
The reason he gave me???
There's nothing much for him to learn in what he is and has been doing... he had done it all... Of course main part of it is how much $$$ he will be earning... just not sure which takes a higher weightage...
But guess from now, he needs to work "under" my boss to learn the ropes...

I still think that moving up the corporate ladder does not have a monetary value to it (like Alan Greenspan) but sense of achievements...
I also understand that without tangible rewards, task are harder and more time consuming...

The incident that set my thoughts going is my training this morning highlighted the fact:

Vendors are not partners... only profit generating business units are consider partners...

All I can say now is that I'm still contended with the amount of savings I generate for the company... for now... :)
