Going back to reality

Aquel viaje había sido genial, todas las cosas vividas a su lado siempre eran así, tanto Reese como Franco habían disfrutado de un tiempo a solas y donde nadie los conocía, la castaña disfruto de nuevo de aquel juego de súper poderes y héroes que traían siempre. Pero todo volvía  a la normalidad, tenían que volver los dos a sus trabajos y continuar con aquella vida que acostumbraban en NY. Volver a aquella realidad era algo complicado para la castaña ya que ahora tenía que ser diferente con sus compañeras del trabajo. Tal como había pensado había sido un día con pequeños enfrentamientos y discusiones pero Reese supo sobrellevarlo y aunque a algunas de las chicas no les agradaba que ella fuera la nueva supervisora no tuvieron más remedio que aceptar las cosas que ella decía pues tenía razón.

  Termino su labor y salió  en dirección a su casa la que compartía con su mejor amiga y compañera pero antes decidió llamar a Franco para saber cómo le había ido, solo que no le contestaba el teléfono, así que la castaña pensó en darse una vuelta a la editorial, después de todo ya eran casi 10 horas sin verse, logro pasar como siempre le hicieron miles de preguntas para saber a quién iba a ver, para que y las miles de preguntas que siempre le hacía la secretaria, tal parecía que solo buscaba la manera de retener a la castaña de que no viera a su héroe por más tiempo. Tal parecía que era la hora de salir pues todos iban apurados para ir a sus hogares pero en el camino la mujer maravilla no se topaba con Superman, así que pensó que tal vez podría estar en problemas llego hasta la que era su oficina y se recargo en la puerta la cual estaba abierta y se quedó allí admirando al rubio que se miraba bastante guapo y pensativo.

So I just got out of an interview this afternoon and I don’t really know if I’m going to be taken in or not. Honestly, parang joke time yung nangyari eh. Hahaha

“What do you know about the company?” I answered the question on the form with “I don’t have the slightest idea.” And believe me, I didn’t have any second thoughts of what to put in there. I’m not trying to be a smart ass or something. Kaso di ko talaga alam kung ano ba yung company na in-applyan ko eh. Hahaha. All I know is it’s a god damned American BPO company. End of discussion.

Good news was I passed both tests. The HR personnel said I got 86 and 83 or something like that. And they would just call me for a final interview once processed. Na-stress ako dun sa second exam. Paano ba naman, MATH! Imagine yung panic ko sa pagsagot earlier. I would have reviewed my answers kaso time-pressured yung exam. Bull crap lang. Walang gaanong nag-apply kanina kaso I felt a bit stupid lang while I was there. Ako lang yung naka-smart casual kanina. Most of them were either wearing casual clothes. Yung mga tipong diyan diyan lang yung pupuntahan. And there were guys na super formal na I think are applying for supervisorial positions and so on. I liked the ambiance of the place. Kaso parang something’s off lang.

If ever I would be called to work there, I’m going to think about it seriously kasi ang hirap magcommute. Like di talaga siya nadadaanan ng jeep or something. Taking the cab would be the smartest thing I can do if I want to make it to work just in time. Kaso the cab fare like cost me 150. Multiply that 5 times. That’s just the fare going to work. Paano pag pauwi na? Tsk. I don’t think I’d be able to afford the fare alone not to mention my food pa if ever. My daily allowance would range from 400 to 500. That’s too much.

I thought of renting a place near my future office if ever I decide to work here in this area. Kaso highly unlikely kasi my parents don’t want me anywhere far from them. Intindihin. Bunso ako at single. Babae pa. (As if naman may gagahasa sa akin. Hahaha)

This week as well, I’m going to try applying in Makati. Kaso my targets are freaking call centers. Ayoko na sa call center sana kasi ayaw ko na ng night shift. I’ve been going to work for more than a year ng day shift ako and I loved it! I was able to do the things I wanted during the night like going to parties and hanging out with my friends after work. I missed that for 2 years. And I wouldn’t want to change any of that for now.

Now that I think about it. I don’t think I’m ready to go back to work yet. I’m not yet mentally prepared to go back to work this early. I’ve been unemployed for just a month and a half, and yes, I am mostly bored. But not that bored at all. Marame akong activities eh. Like sleepovers, getting drunk and so on and so forth. Kaso I’m not sure if I’m that ready really. I’ve been out of routine for the longest time na rin. And I miss having sense of control. Di naman sa control freak ako no. Kaso alam mo yun, parang wala akong purpose araw araw. Yun yung namimiss ko. Yung may sinusunod ako na routine. Boring yeah, but at least I have a reason to wake up early every morning and that is all I need to think about. All I need is something to preoccupy me every day.

So why am I so eager to find a job already?

Because I want to get back to being in control. I want to go back to being able to make sense of the time I’m wasting in front of the computer every day. I want to forget the things that occupy my mind every second of my conscious moments. I want to be able to have some sense of purpose back. I tried looking for it in other people. But to no avail, I failed. Numerous times. And work is the only loyal companion I really ever had. At least, I can break up with my work any time I want without hearing any complains. If I do really well, I get rewarded well too. And if I’m feeling lazy, it doesn’t say a single negative thing. And if I chose to look outside beyond my work, it doesn’t accuse me of being unfaithful. So yeah, syotain ko na lang ang trabaho ko. Hahaha
