of youtube-ing at work, role-shifting and boredom...
first of all.. i think it's not a very good idea to watch youtube of GerardGasm/Ferard and whatnot at work... but i'm bored. Plus it's a good exercise on trying to keep a straight face while watching something completely inappropriate. I got my headphones on, so I'm safe. And my monitor is facing the wall so noone's gonna creep up my back to watch what i'm doing.
Plus, www.mychemicalromance.com wonderfully thought to include auto-playing songs on the website. So I'm letting my little iPod rest for today, charging quietly while I listen and bob away my head (and heart) to Teenagers, Famous Last Words, and The Black Parade.
second of all.. i'm bored. pretty much nothing to do.. except to think of one offer. Linda offered me to shift clients within the office, taking over SonyEricsson's tradeCRM. The program's been going on for a while and there hadn't been much development other than creating programs for frontliners/traders to encourage more sales, such as lucky dips, point collection and what not. The catch is - I'll be on my own.
This role-shifting is part of our contingency plan, because once Nutricia is officially kicked out (effective March 2008) our beloved little family (Linda, Fajar, Me, Endri, Astrit, Angga & Agus) have pretty much nothing to do. Linda's been looking left and right for ways to keep us working, either in the same team or a different client, but still at Eways. And just so happens that Thomas, the current Sr. AE for SonyEricsson was not getting along with Ken the project coordinator, and is leaving in March. Linda & Fajar both feel that instead of hiring someone new from outside, it's better to utilize one of the office's most potential asset - yours truly.
On the one hand i'm flattered - I was their first and only choice. Well to be honest I'm not too surprised, seeing that out of the two Sr. AE's in Nutricia Team, I was the one who was here since it started. What i'm a little surprised is that this sort of implies that they now trust me to go out on my own. Which is the flipside.
I'm scared. Really. I'm so used to being in a team, at least with a supervisor who is almost always there, who I can knock on the door and ask anything, anytime. At least I know that someone's watching my back just in case I slip up - and help to mop the spills. If I move to SE, Ken is not technically at Eways - he works for DDB Advis, next door. Literally. We have connecting doors and shared corridors and whatnot. But the point is, he's... not here.
I'm excited to be given this opportunity, but I have to admit I'm not 100% confident yet that I'll do a good job. I told Linda that I would like to wait until the evaluation of the Haagen Dazs Practice Project to make my decision. I treat it as a sort of a 'final exam' - to see (for myself, more than anything) that I actually can do this on my own without constant supervision.
Not to go to the emotional bit of this, but yes, this would mean that I would have to *physically* move from my current desk, back to my 'old' space when i first started with Club Nutricia - and away from my little-disfunctional-but-fun-as-hell family...
*sigh*
And I see you lying next to me
with words I thought I would never speak
awake, and unafraid
asleep, or dead..
