It has been 8 months since I
became a pioneer of my current team at work and aside from my our manager and
supervisor we are all newbie we are all 13 then and another 3 was added into
the team and it has been our team since then. But since some of us were going
there are also somebody coming and the bottom line is that I have been a
witness how our current team struggles every month, how our team tried so hard
to make it on top and how our team members love and enjoy the company of one
another. We are all friends, we are all family.
But nothing is permanent in this
world aside from change thus the team that I have been working for almost a
year now will be disseminated to other teams; well all teams will be
experiencing the same too. We are all 11 and we will be thrown to 3 other
teams: 3 of us will remain, 6 will be transferred to one of the top performing.
1 will be transferred to a new team and I (only me) will be thrown to a team
wherein everyone is new to each other and I will be with this new team 2 days
from now.
I am scared due to the fact that
I might not perform well because I know that I have this attitude of I will
just step up whenever I am comfortable with my environment and I don’t want
that to happen again. And I know that I
am not that good and I have to bring up myself so they’ll never have a bad
impression on me.
But yesterday, before I go home. My
future new manager gave me a message to see him and he just need to tell me
something for about 10-15 minutes and so did I. I know that the conversation is
just a getting to know you stage and I was not wrong as he started the
conversation by asking me how am I, and if I could tell something about myself.
As the conversation continues I
became comfortable talking to him and that 15 minutes became an hour and our
conversation focuses on me, what I wanted to be, what are my plans and
unknowingly I was able to express to him what are my plans and these
conversation I never had with my previous manager. I told him what my struggles
in life are and if he can understand it and he does not say yes but he will
try. He also supports me with my endeavors especially my post graduate studies
and he is the one giving me the best option he could. Oh, I love this Guy!!
I have been burnout! I keep on
saying this for 3 months now but after that talk (and it is our first talk) I
have been so motivated as this manager understands me and he have a plan for
me. It seems like I have to change my life. I’ll come to work smiling and
looking for something great each day and hopefully everything will be
consistently okay.
