Life is good

My boss asked me to meet up with him Thursday last week, at first I thought, "what did I do?" (are you guilty of something hehehe) . So I went up to him and then he told me we should look for a room because what we are going to discuss is confidential, we looked for a vacant meeting room in that room, didn't find any, we went down one floor and found one.

He started by saying, " I need to talk to you about this because this will be announced and I don't want you to be surprised and see you're name on it." He told me that there will be big changes in the company and I'm one of those people who will be particularly affected.

I'm not going to dwell on what those changes are but to cut the story short, because of this changes, I will be given more responsibilities at least on paper by March 1 and then officially by June. I will on some sort of probation for a few months and hopefully by December this year, I'll be receiving a salary increase since this position is a level higher

Believe it or not, I didn't even bothered asking about the salary, at first it didn't sink in and I was overwhelmed by the position. I had to smoke 4 sticks before I realized, life is good, God is great! Thank you! Every night, before I sleep, I would always pray and include in my prayers that for Him to bless my career. I just had another answered prayer

indeed... life is good.. God is great!


ps - I always thought that one need not kiss ass or step on other people to succeed, aside from hard work one has to maintain a good relationship with the people he/she works with. It's called EBA (emotional bank account) but I will write about that some other time. One also has to believe in what he is doing in order to succeed. I believe my whole career is a testament to all these things.
