Intel and Conan

I’m now done with the Enron Ethics class paper I’ve been doing for days. But there’s more on queue. And one that I’m doing right now is a research on corporate governance, still on Ethics class which quite frankly I feel suddenly overwhelmed about this subject. I’ve been seated for just more than an hour or so and I [...]

I, Hitman

The job is about to start. In fact , last night I received the hit list. Eagerly and expertly, I studied the faces just like how I was trained. The facial features of the target got imprinted on my mind like a permanent tattoo. I looked at the eyes of each subject squarely without any [...]

Editorial Abstracting

A month have past since I got into this job. The moment I learned, from one of my facebook contacts, that it does exist, I grabbed the opportunity to get to know more about it. I just love writing and so it didn’t take much time before I signed up. Few weeks later, I attended [...]

Of bad job interview and bad neighbors

I woke up today with a hope of a very good day but it just wasn’t meant to be I guess. I was supposed to bring my car to Makati for an exam in one of the companies I’m applying for. And one of the compelling reasons is just about being paranoid about the [...]

“Tell me why I don’t like Mondays” – Bob Gelfof and Johnny Fingers “I hate Mondays” – Garfield Yesterday was the weirdest Monday that I can recall…so far. Here’s why: On my way to work the discussion over the radio was about an episode of the Oprah show where she approved of her guest’s [...]

Laid off by WordPress

Last night I was checking wordpress after wondering if there are others like me who wrote about layoffs during this recession period. After clicking my layoff tag, the answer became clear – there’s just a lot of us. Here are the URLs that I’ve visited and some excerpts of their blog. (The last two [...]

My Network And 2 Analogies

Last week, one of the training I attended discussed about job search. And one of the activities was for everyone to write on a card how they got to know our company and how they applied here. Some of the choices are: walk-in, wanted ads and networking (and others I can’t exactly remember). I was [...]

Bloody Bisaya

I have forgotten all about this issue that has created another stir among “majority” of the Filipinos led supposedly by our nationalistic and caring brethren here and abroad. But just as I was about stretching my yet sleepy self out of bed I heard it from the news again. This is about the discrimination [...]
