work and play...


my working hours are my playtime...


the storyboards are my comic books...

the TVCs & RCs are my favorite cartoon shows...

the strat papers are my drawings...

my clients and colleagues are my playmates...

my superiors are the game masters...

my accounts are my precious dolls...

my timelines suggest what to play next...

my workplace is my playground...

-----------------
i wrote this last year at the height of my busy days. i am reposting this because i want to feel the feeling of excitement i had when i wrote this despite the tons of work and tight deadlines to meet. These past few days until the moment i am writing this, i am stressed out and highly irritable. It seems like some of my playmates aren't playing the game right. They are pretending to know the game but is a lousy player. I hate pretenders! Why not tell me you dont know the game i might be able to help you rather than play it and pretend to know?!

I am not demanding what isn't due to us and to my client. You are simply not doing what you ought to do. Everything has to be elevated to our level (you should know that) because we need to know everything. We (your team and my team and not my team alone!) are supposed to manage the event and we (you and me not me alone) are suppose to be on top of things! If these things sound unfamiliar to you then i guess you do not have a place here. Go and look for a place that you would fit. And don't you dare mess with my precious dolls again! I am working my ass to earn to take care of them and i won't let someone like you ruin my reputation!

Whew! Now i can breath better!

ahhh the Great Pretenders! Just roll with the punches honey..don't let them get to you. Sige blog lang para mailabas. What can we do anyway?

HOpe you're not spreading yourself too thin. Going home at around 11pm is so darn late you know. I hope things will be better next week :)

someone's angry and the pretenders better start thinking not once, but twice and a thousand more!

zelle, don't worry, when the smoke's clear, you'll stand victorious. itaga yan sa bato at isama na rin sa mga tatagain ang mga pretenders na yan o di kaya gawin silang bato!

Hi Zelle,
What a great way to put it..if only we can always live by those words.
But I guess, like in any game, there are those who cheats and dont play fair. The question is , do we accept this? I am in the same situation in the game that I just joined in...I wish I can go back to the old game I used to play but I want a higher prize , and I chose to play here, so I have to fight to succeed.

hi hazel,
pangalanan mo na lang kaya?! hahaha
i agree with leah... in this life, we are bound to meet people like these. the unprofessionals. the posers. and as you say, the great pretenders. we dont have a choice but to fight to succeed. let them know that you are serious... that you mean business.
kaya mo yan.. funaholik ka diba?!
