Girls at work....

by jamminglady @ 27. Sep 2007 - 22:17:40

I'm clocking 2 weeks old in my new workplace now. I am slowly blending into my bunch of colleagues, basically our lunch group. There are about 8 to 10 of us. I am slowly adjusting from the international culture to the Singaporean culture.

Through my observation so far, I find that senior girls are not very easy to work with. First thing, Singaporean girls like to gossip. Second thing, girls are sensitive (regardless of anything). Third thing, they don't really like a younger girl to lead them! Sigh, GIRLS........ I'm a girl myself but I find that I don't really like to work with girls. They are troublesome. Guys focus more on the work itself unlike them. The goal is the same, no other miscelleneous hidden goals. Or maybe I just didn't meet the right girls. :P

I think I'm used to working in a non-discriminating culture. Age and experience do not matter, it's the capability that matters. I wonder how many local girls can accept this.

I hope to adjust my way of working to be able to make our girl's working environment happier. :)


 
 

New workplace

by jamminglady @ 19. Sep 2007 - 22:52:51

I've just changed a new workplace. The town location is really much better for the morning travel than my 1.5hrs bus trip or 2hrs MRT+2bus trip in the past. Not extremely fast but reduced by 30 minutes for the morning.

Colleagues has been very nice. It's a 90% Singaporean working environment. 10% from China and few neighbouring countries. Communication subjects are different. Well, work is no different from any other places. I'm glad that I managed to get a good boss. Many of my colleagues gave good comments about my boss. Since the boss and my colleagues are nice, next comes the work. Work is just as good as what I expected. I don't want to say things too early, let me explore it further before giving my comments. :)

All the best to myself!!
