there are a lot of things happened in March
i could say it's busy month for me after the CNY
everything back to usual and busier than before
TAP WEEK
I'm not really know what it means or
what it stands for
but after I experienced it
it's like a group activities that all mccanian from different department
divided into 10 group and comes to know each other
understanding and communicate
telematch and group performing
the highest score among the teams will be rewarded by cash
and this activities will be held for a week once annually
maybe AA used to has this kind of activities
but it's very first time for me
Fortunately and unfortunately
I was grouped with our ECD, CCO, CFO, one of the AE, one of the AD,
brand director, 3 senior senior from brand team and 1 senior designer
lastly, the FA that newly join the agency, that's me
First day
we were having dinner together, sitting close to each other
and it's introduce yourself session
to share your experiences and anything about you
well, compare to them
i don't have the experiencessssss they have
and they shared about their own family, wife, kids, children
but sadly i'm still single and sometimes i not even know myself
(hahaha... funny)
so you can imagine
they were talked more about 5 mins
while i only spoke for 3 mins
furthermore, my english wasn't that good
especially without any preparation
(fyi, our newly CCO is British from UK and most of them are elder and English educated)
anyway, i've done my best
hopefully they understand me... hopefully
Second and Third day
we were going to set up our group family tree with a theme
and you know the whole TAP week was carried along our working hours
so don't expect higher status member to do the task together
as they were too busy with their jobs, clients, meeting and so on
even i was busy but still i need to work it out myself
as you know the hierarchy, i'm the bottom level
so you need to stay at office without OT paid
to finish what my leader (AD) planned
well, it's not a tough task at all
just print out, cutting paper, sticking
but still cost my time to finish it
good thing is you can saw many different last minute works from other group
Forth day
the telematch
the whole game is set in the whole building of Wisma LYL
which means every group need to complete all the task at different level floor
and we're requested to gather in the office for game briefing in 6.45am
since the games are allocated at different floor
so we are rushing up and down by using the staircase
well, it's really good exercise in the early morning
but after the game end
we were going back to work with exhausted and sleepy mood
somemore we had to stay back for performance rehearsal for Friday's night
so it was a tired and sleepy day for me
Fifth day
as usual we're busy with our job
and even the rehearsal and script were also last minute
so our overall performance on that night was so so
and i was enjoying the rest of group performance
they all were really really funny and creative in their own way
i would say it was a really great night on that day
after everything
all the score added up and we got the winner for the TAP week
of course we're not the winner but also not the last one among 10
what else after that
definitely a party night will be drew up for everyone
a party night at our pantry dining area
can you imagine it?
well, we do have a balcony that connect to that pantry
that can fit that a lot of people
so no more waiting
they rocked that night with wine, beer, cuisine, music and dance
(just like clubbing)
for me, i'm not enjoy the noisiness, crowded and alcoholic
so i just skip the party myself and mock up photo album for farewell of our ECD and CEO
(sometimes i just feel hard to get along with them because i'm not their type)
and that's all for the TAP week
oh yah...
there was an evaluate session for those who has worked at least 1 year in the company
so i'm not be chosen
Worthy Book Ladies Edition
a coupon book with a lot of great deal specially for woman
this was actually my freelance job
that require me to work for them in their office during the weekend
due to the deadline of the publishing book which is the end of the March
so my ex-colleague and i have to work with them all the weekend
Saturday and Sunday from 10am - 10pm
this even worse than my FA job
just because for rushing deadline
amend, amend, amend and amend
things that i do for the whole weekend
after the book published was thinking to terminate the contract with them
very costing time and less income
not worth at all even they free us lunch and dinner
still not the suitable job for me
Back to my FA job
after few months working there
i did reduced my mistake
however still not reach my target 0 mistake per month
and the most important thing is
i still can't get along with my colleague even from the same department
maybe the age problem... and maybe myself problem too
CI, CI, CI
the corporate identity that we have to follow all the time
and because of it
some designs are not good as i expected from designer and visualizer
but no choice
FA is doing FA job, nothing more
so bored and feel sleepy for me
i'm not sure how long i will be there as FA
just thinking there is not much helping me to improve my portfolio
nothing to insert from there
anyway it did slightly improve my Ps skill
i guess will upload some photos of my office next time
since it's totally different working environment compare with others
CONCLUSION
March is tired month for me yet it's not over
so no much go out and activities with my dear friend
so i gonna miss you, my friends
yah... life is short
so i'm going to do something that i never done before
just to enjoy and experience what's the life
all the best wishes for what ever you do
support, support and support
