Linda and The ReaL WorLd

Hmm.. i don't know to be happy or sad. Well, i'll put things into perspective and let you, my friends decide if it's good or bad.

Today, i just received news on my ITP (industrial Attachment). I will be working in this telecommunications and network company. It was my LAST choice and i was like 100% sure that i would be getting my first few choice. But as you all know, life is full of "surprises".

Apparently, this is a reputable company and they have expanded to Australia. The location of this company where i will be working is really near my home. So i can get up late, get home early... haha basically more time for myself rather then spending the time stoning in the bus.

However, the job scope requires me to do sales. Sales of Internet Service Providers (ISP). Also, i will have to be able to set up a network using Broadband solution. I am TOTALLY CLUELESS on what this is all about. Argh... i have NO IDEA what am i going to do! I know i can cope with the sales with alittle reading and understanding here and there. But the technical part is gonna be a huge hurdle for me. I'm gonna need a whole lot of encouragement and support. Not forgetting hours of reading up to prepare myself for the worst senario.

Also, there won't be any other ITP students working with me. So i will be having my lunch all alone. That totally suxs. Lonely hours with no one to talk to and laugh with? Oh man... i mean i cannot live a day without a companion to chit chat and eat with me!! *sobs*

So i am gonna pray for a good boss and nice colleagues who will ask me out for lunch. Pray that i more alert then my usual blur blur self. I also will be needing lots of wisdom and be able to grasp things real fast. If i do well for my ITP then it'll be easy for me to work for another company in a similar industry like Singtel, Starhub or even Samsung.

Things could work out for the best or for the worst. Feel free to drop me a line or give me some sound advice... signing off! Linda
