Top or Bottom?


Milch: Bro! For now nakapagdecide na ako na mascomfortable ako as bottom than maging top

Friend: Hmm talaga? Eh sayang naman yung opportunity. At palalagapasin mo pa?

Milch: Oo nga eh,. parang mas-ok naman ako sa bottom position


THE REAL STORY:

I was offered a managerial position  by our company, In short a promotion. Because one of our managers will be resigning soon.

It took me days to think,  If  I will accept  the promotion or not. Kasi sa totoo lang if, I say YES then my decision can either make or break me. Kasi yung mangerial position na yan, eh mahirap na trabaho. In fact mga 7 employees na ang dumaan sa position na yan at nagresign sila lahat,  at di nakatagal. The position requires you to travel all around the Philippines (di ako mahilig magtravel lalo na sa mga provinces or away from the city) and sometimes  I may travel abroad din especially sa Asian countries. And I if I travel a lot, I will miss a lot of things like my computer, the blogs that I'm reading, my dvd collection, going to the gym, blogging and interacting with my  friends and cyberfriends,  etc. And worst of all, Managers don't have overtime pay.


Based naman sa salary may increase nga, pero ang salary na yun. I can earn it easily, if I ever decided to go back to a callcenter company.


So its really hard to be on the top position kasi masmaraming pressure, and as a manager, ikaw ang unang mapapagalitan ng superiors, if ever may nagkamali sa mga taong under sa yo. Unlike yung mga nasa bottom position na if ever they did something wrong then they can point their fingers to their managers bwahaha


 Di naman sa wala akong ambition na tumaas ang position ko sa company namin. But the only  thing that is most important to me, is  that  I'm happy with my work. Because before when I was working sa callcenter, My salary is really big, but the  paycheck was not worth it. Because I suffered so much pressure and mental anguish sa work.

 Since I refused the position,  and they decided to hire a new employee, instead.

  2. Being at the top poses responsibilities that needs more effort. Okay maging top, because it adds to your value, pero parang ang sarap maging ordinaryong employee lang no?

    For you, choose what you want and stick with that decision. :)
