#KapamilyaForever: A continuous battle to fight for those who are building their dreams

(WARNING: This may be a very long post, depending on the level of my feelings in terms of honesty. This is a personal account from a Kapamilya on the franchise issue of ABS-CBN. Opinions are MINE and must not reflect those of the network and its management.)

If you've been a long-time reader of my musings here, you'd know this fact about me - I work at ABS-CBN. I am a Kapamilya. I'm a digital content producer for the publishing arm of the station, article writer for the brand I handle, and scriptwriter for radio, and I spend most of my time creating social media stuff and stories for two departments of the network. My main job is with ABS-CBN Books, and I do online marketing and I spearhead digital content and social media postings for our brand. I also have a part-time job as a radio drama scriptwriter for MOR 101.9's radio drama program, Dear MOR. My stories are being aired all around the Philippines on air and even online via MOR 101.9's Youtube channel.

I've been a Kapamilya for almost 3 years now. I spent 2 and a half years as a Digital Content Producer for MOR 101.9 (along with my experiences as a Production Assistant, Associate Producer - for a week - and a Scriptwriter) then I shifted to a full-time, regular job when ABS-CBN Books offered me one (I used to work for Books only for NoInk, our digital writing and reading platform). Basically, my job experiences with ABS-CBN can be considered as the gateway of the dreams I've built since I was 10 years old. I've long been narrating this whenever possible, both here and offline, but me being a writer is my ultimate goal in terms of my career. I've been sure about it for a very young age and this is why I'm really grateful with ABS-CBN because the network gives me so much to look forward to everyday and to hope for more in the future.

Being a Kapamilya is tiring. Really tiring, trust me. Everyday, you're expected to be creative and top your previous performances. The work environment is a fast-paced jam-packed one, with deadlines and surprise additional load coming in between. Everyday, you'd get to see yourself challenged to become better with what you do. It's a process, a never-ending cycle, and a race to chase. Some would think it's a nightmare and a hell hole they'd choose not to involve themselves in, but for us, it's a passion cause and a privilege to be chosen in the network. On a personal level, the workflow I have to face everyday reflects my relationship to myself - it is a love-hate one that I have to keep on surviving.

Trying to enter ABS-CBN as a professional is not a piece of cake - you'd have to prove yourself over the tedious process of application, job interviews, exams, and professional assessment. I'm blessed to have survived it, but the better blessing is staying inside.

It is hard to concentrate at work when your company is in pain. Right now, we're bleeding the pains of press oppression and attack on freedom of speech. Our shoulders hurt as we carry the burdens of an unresolved grudge (which should have been a closed case during the Senate hearing because it was proven there that ABS-CBN did NOTHING against the law) over a childlike tantrum of someone who should have better wisdom, given his age and educational background. We're under the fire as people (who only know to do is to open their mouths noisily) call us names and tell us to do our jobs better without them even understanding how Journalism fully works. Trust me when I say that feeling overwhelmed after all of these is a freaking understatement because this is more than it - What we experience now is something that no one deserves to.

For the past 3 years, I've had this floating feeling of unbelief at times while I walk in ABS-CBN's Center Road. Am I really here? Is this real? Why? Those questions can be acknowledged as funny whenever I look back but the feeling strikes the reality to me - I am making my dreams come true... which is what I hoped and prayed for. I did not push myself so hard in Journalism school for nothing.

Of course I've had a fair share of doubts, especially with my skills, particularly when I was with MOR. I loved my stay there because of the experience but with the people I have to face everyday, I don't have a concise answer with that. I doubted myself highly because I feel that the people around me don't even believe with what I can do, which hindered me to fully go on. My shyness also became a problem and it was called out. When the opportunity to find an additional job happened, I immediately grabbed it because I was really hungry for career growth. I felt so stuck with what I do everyday and it was draining even if I wasn't doing so much.

With my new job at ABS-CBN Books, my shelved character as a writer bloomed. I became an article writer again. I have a website I handle where I can write stuff into. I am paid to read and write about books, which is the dream for me. People think I'm living the dream, sometimes I think of the same, but the universe must be joking lately, especially during this time of a melancholic trial for us.

The network and the management are not perfect entities. I've had a fair share of a story wherein I found them unfair, but it was resolved.  Despite of the imperfections, ABS-CBN tries its best everyday to live on its own tagline - to always be in the service of the Filipino worldwide. Every content we (the little employees) do, every write up and brainchild we release, the network makes sure that they're all dedicated for the Filipinos. ABS-CBN won't be the biggest media conglomerate in the country without that legacy, and that legacy will always remain.

As people try to silence us with their fake news parties and one-sided accounts; with their jurisdiction obtained from misleading social media postings and irresponsible word of mouth from imbeciles and evildoers, we continue to fight this battle we don't even have to be in, in the first place. We do this because our big bosses believe in us and for our love for each other as Kapamilyas. We do this for the people who choose to be kind to hear us out, too. We do this for those who believe and support us along the way, even if it means they'll get to be stabbed by the daggers used to wound us as well.

Personally, I am so damn tired to explain to people who are narrow-minded and would just throw out insults to me, my stand, and my status as an ABS-CBN employee. I am so freaking tired to argue with people (even my own relatives who are way insensitive to make this situation a laughing matter) who choose to be blinded with their hate and triumphant feeling over those who are unsure of their future everyday. But I know I must keep on fighting, on resisting, and on speaking not just for the network but for myself and my dreams as well. This is my bread and butter, and I don't see myself sharing my talent with words and paragraphs anywhere else aside from ABS-CBN.
