First Month Payroll Paid

I started my job at HR Inc on 14th of March, and today I got paid for the first month! It's the second time I have received payment from my work. The first payment was from Hello American where I worked as an part-time English teacher for only one month, and here is the second time I got paid. I felt so happy that I have a real job now unlike the part-time teaching job which was not my interest. Although I have been facing with much more difficulty with this new job due to its complication, I do like this job much more than teaching which is not my skill nor my interest. Thanks to my friends who introduced me to the recruiter of HR Inc and thanks to HR Inc that accepted me!

We have TWO Choices

What shall we do when we are facing with difficulty? Happily or hopelessly deal with it? It's our choice to be optimistic or pessimistic.

I like this powerpoint show. Wish u all like it too! :D

Accounting for LIFE

Accounting is the process of


- analyzing: what should be stored in your memory? Friends? Schools? Family? Work? Colleagues? Or Rivals?......

- recording: how do you categorize and rank them?

- measuring: what do you value most? Do you measure success of your life by amount of money you can earn; relationship you can establish; or hierarchy you can reach?

- reporting: of course, you can tell people how many friends you have made; how much money you have earned; how much work you have done; how high you have climbed to, but only you yourself know whether it’s reality. Even an auditor finds hard to detect them.

- interpreting: are your goals attained? Have you done well so far? Is what I have now what I’ve been eager for?

Another Stage of Life

Although I used to work as a part-time teacher of English language, I didn't feel that I was really working. Perhaps the work duration was too short or it was not my interest and skills which caused me feel so.

March 5 let me step on a real stage of life. Two friends of mine from RULE introduced me to a recruiting employee working in a company providing recruiting service as well as other services. I was asked to arrange time for an interview with him. The interview took place at Lucky Seven, 5 p.m. in the same day, since he normally does not work on saturday. The interview went on smoothly, and I was arranged to go through the final round interview the following Monday. The interviewers are two friendly ladies, and they seemed to like me much after communication. I was quite sure that I would pass it if I didn't tell them about the internship program that I have to complete at another institution in order to write my final report for graduation from RULE.

Luckily, I was called on Wednesday and was told to sign a job contract on the same day. Great, I passed it!

I started working this Monday, 14th of Marh, and today is the second of my work. Since I am a newcomer and have no working experience, I was not given things to do. I was told to read Labor Law and other labor-related prakas and notifications. I was also trained to some basic tasks in the department as well. The department I am working in right now is not accounting department, but an outsourcing department. I am glad that I could work within this department because not only can I learn about accounting tasks, but I can also learn about administrative tasks as well.

Thanks heaven! It is indeed a good chance to work within this company. My senior is friendly and is very willing to teach me many matters, and so is my manager. All of my colleagues are also very kind people as well.

Graduation

Life of being a university student is so short; 3 years and a half is now gone. I've finally graduated from UC and start to prepare for the graduation from RULE as well. It's true that time flies, and I feel that I'm not well-prepared for change to a stage of working life. I have started to worry if I could find a job, especially a job that I wish for.

For two weeks Nareth and I have been trying to go to various companies to apply for internship so that we could write a report for our graduation at RULE. We have always supposed that companies would be more open to provide chances for students to intern rather than to have a job. Nevertheless, things have come up in total contrast, I may say. It seems unlikely for a total stranger to learn and check a company's accounting procedure since accounting information is confidential in doing business. Therefore, we have been rejected by most of companies and banks; some of them do provide chances for internship, but, by the time we were there, the posts were already filled! It's annoying that we were late for them! Students from other universities have already taken them.

This is week the 4th day of week 2, and there are only two weeks left before the deadline of submission of request form. At the moment I am waiting for reply from a company I have submitted the form (which was submitted 3 days ago).

Hope good news comes up soon!
