The Graveyard Shift

-


I really don't like our shift. I'm a NAVIGATOR for one of the biggest contact centers here in the Philippines. They change our shift every 1 or 2 weeks (and sometimes suddenly) and it's killing me. Not just only me but also my workmates! We've got the ugliest shift on the production floor! it's 12:00am-9:30 am :( and this is really killing us in terms of health, and nightlife (I don't have a nightlife btw. HA!), family time, and body clock. I know that during our interview, they asked us if we are flexible/amenable to the schedule and we said "yes". Yes, we are flexible, but they should be giving us a heads-up prior to the change of schedule.

Is anyone here who's into GY shift? What do you usually guys do to cope with it?

We all have a list of " Favorite Quotes " one-liners, sayings, or phrases that we always read from time to time whenever we feel down, or in need of some moral boost. For me, quotes represent the famous [iconic] people who had coined them.  Even though these are just only a group of words, they possess the EXPERIENCE and HISTORY of the person who had thought of them! That's how these quotes get their strength ! The Bible says,  “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit” - Proverbs 18:21. Yes, Our words have the power to destroy and the power to build up. Today, I want to share some of my favorite quotes that I collected. These quotes were grabbed from blog posts, articles, movies, tv series and novels that I've watched and read. The ones that are in  BOLD are my favorites or had given serious impact in my life!  I will update this particular post for the latest ones that I'll come across with.

WARNING: A VERY LATE POST:   Since 2017, Batangas shaped up as my favorite place to go to whenever I want to recharge and reflect because It's accessible and has got the nature city vibe without compromising your quality vacation. Early 2019, We've decided to go back again to give a thought about everything that happened to us last year. From the battles that we have fought with my Mom and her passing. This time, in Nasugbu Yes, just like the title of my review. If you want a place to relax, disconnect, or detach from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is perfect for you. My wife and I went here to celebrate our  8th wedding anniversary . I must say that we're in the right place to be in the moment , to connect , reflect , and enjoy the site.  Main room The place is perfect for couples and families. We had our reservation on  Agoda , which was great because it was "pay the property at check-in." We already had our reservation online befor

Jack of all trades, master of none. Is there anything wrong with that?

Grabbed from Google This is what always bugs me. Is it a bad thing to be a " Jack of all trades "? I find it weird whenever my friends call me that. I think I'm a perfect example of it. I just can't stand when they make a fuss about it. As if it's there's something wrong from being "good" at almost everything! For me, especially in this day and age, being a " generalist " is no longer a bad thing. You will always have " the edge " among others in terms of jobs , skills , and opportunity for promotion ! Well, in my case, aside from playing the piano, I can also play the guitar, the bass guitar, and the drums. I'm also an ESL teacher , a Customer Service Representative for a BPO company., and A blogger ! To sum this up, I guess we need more "jack of all trades" in our society. But instead of sticking to that phrase, we need to change it to " Jack of all trades, master of all " How's that soun
