A Fiasco in the Project Cash Flow

Another failed project has been concluded today. No, I'm not frustrated as I am one of the who said "no" to the continuation of the project. *wink*

It does not take a pro to decide on whether we have to go on with the current project or scrap it off and start anew. You see, the project has been there for like three years! Three years with nothing useful at hand is a frustrating stuff for the organization.

So what made us decide to scrap everything?

• The project has been in the hands of different "consultants", handed down from generation to generation without having any formal transition process
• "Consultants" are not consultants per se, they are more of the IT robots
• Least confidence on the solution being implemented
• Unreasonable scope creep
• Poor project management
• and I can go on and on with the list....

It was a bitter acceptance on the part of our "consultants" slash IT affiliate. But there is no way to move forward but to accept it.

My First

Welcome to my secret sanctity where I can pour out all my thoughts when my physical office can't seem to give me enough space. :)

For the past five years, I am one of the masochists who endured not just the physical, but as well as the mental challenges the world of corporate can bestow. I never really wanted to get out, but due to some inevitable office politics and unbearable frustrations, I finally chose to leave the doors of one of the buildings in Ayala, Makati. It saddened me, but I know God has given me enough reasons to finally look for another world to share my talents with.

And so after three months of personally choosing to join the bandwagon of the "bums", I inked a contract with one of the Filipino companies located at Quezon City. The position is something that most of the people may aim for. The pay is good. The environment is less stressful.

Am I happy? Oh well, it's too soon to divulge my feelings as a period of a little past three months is not enough to conclude what I felt for the organization. One thing is for sure though, life should go on and I should live up to what is expected of me, and hopefully surpass all of these towering expectations!
