Next!

Today was my last day in TMX. It turned out extremely differently from what I had imagined ever since I tendered all due to a management decision.

Yesterday we found out that two of our colleagues will not receive a confirmation after their probation and were asked to leave. Another was offered a contract job instead of a confirmation and so she has decided to leave. 

So the atmosphere in the office was really sad. Jestin was really emotional and all. 

I didn't feel sad at all. Not over my departure, nor over my colleagues' departure. 

I know the reason for the latter. I am leaving after all. It really wouldn't make a huge difference and I do understand why these 3 ppl were let go.

But as to why I wasn't sad over my departure... I reasoned that I would have been sad if I had resigned maybe 6 or 7 months ago. I must admit that I was more attached to the previous team and I was enjoying my work then. Now, even though the idea of not having to wake up early anymore for work starting from tomorrow is still kinda surreal, I totally love this sense of relief of not having to worry about work, or fret over the tasks I have to accomplish the next day.

I must reach the target to work at Boat Asia 09! 

Before I Leave

Yes Corrin, before I leave. 

I tendered my resignation the Friday before last. I can't wait for my last day to come. 

There are many things happening in the office that I have not told anybody. Nor will I ever. You just don't talk about things you do wrong.

But I guess this way, it is so much easier for everybody. 

And, through this incident, I experienced the amazing grace of the ever-faithful God once again. I had absolutely no right to turn to Him after what I did, but He still helped me through :)

I guess... it's His way of telling me that He is always faithful even when we are unfaithful.

TMX Day Out

My first and last TMX outing I think.


We have had Girl Night Outs before this: we went to Kbox, Mind Cafe or dinner. But as the name suggests, those were limited to the girls which frankly speaking, includes almost everybody in the office except for Herman at one point of time.


The turnout for this official TMX outing was great. Everybody came with their other half and kids in tow. There was lots of food including Jestin's prata, Cyn's non-halal beehoon and Viv's chix wings.



We had originally intended to go to Sentosa for a picnic and I was so looking forward to the sun and the vball, but it had to rain heavily up till around 10am. Thankfully Zann managed to book the function room at Nerdy's condo.



I had plenty fun regardless, playing Taboo, Dai Dee, and Phase 10.


I think half the fun in this outing was planning it. Hopefully I'll get a chance to go to Sentosa with them at least once before I leave.



And hopefully we will have another Mind Cafe or Kbox outing before I leave.
