Sayonara ICLP
After 15 months with ICLP, i finally said goodbye and am now ready to move on and take on another challenge. Something that I'm really looking forward to.
ICLP was my first company here in Dubai. And I couldn't be more thankful that it's the one that initiated me to the Dubai Working environment. Here, your foes when you first arrive are companies with a crappy system and structure and second is the expiration of your VISA, thus the need to find a job before it ends. And because of these foes, some Filipinos are forced to concurr to offers that they wouldn't normally take given a different set of circumstances. I was lucky that I chose a good company to spend my year with.
Despite all the things that happened, both good and bad, I consider my stay with ICLP an experience that I'll always value. I've learned a lot for that short span of time, and it has honed me professionaly and as a person too. And that something that I'm thankful for.
So it was a private goodbye awhile ago. I'm not really into big goodbyes so when Andy asked me what I wanted, I chose the not so hyped up one. I didn't really know personally all the people in the company. Except for the people that I work with, most of the time I'm just courteous and do small talks with the rest of my workmates. But i was really touched that they chipped in to give me a gift.. when i don't normally chip in for all those who have left! GUILTY!!! hahaha! Some came to my cubicle to give me their well wishes and to say goodbye. I'm so touched. ^_^
I'm gonna miss my Cubicle! that was my second home! With the plants and everything else! LOL! I'm gonna miss the Fridays and Saturdays, the late night shifts and most of all, all my Casper friends! ^_^
Sigh... on to the next stage! What to do? Ces't La Vie!
