Journey to the Working Society Begins...

I know this title sounds weird as I have graduated like 3 months ago. Even though I have been working part time in between but mostly it was just 1 week kind of work. So doesn't really count as a real job. This time I finally found one full-time job. I am giving myself 3 months to test the waters. Hopefully I can stick to this job for long or that the company will convert me to a confirmed staff. I am really too lazy to look for another new job!

Worked for two weeks already, so far not so good. Colleagues and bosses are really nice people. Its just that my work performance is not that good. Made a big mistake last week as I placed a candidate to the wrong product training. As my director was at overseas, the manager reported the matter through the group whatsapp and I apologised for my mistake. The director replied, "the managers should be held responsible." and the managers began to apologise as well. I felt damn bad la because it was really my mistake for not checking properly and had to implicate the managers. Then I received a private whatsapp from my director stating,

 "don't worry. everybody learn from mistake. It's okay to make mistake just don't repeat the same mistake. next time clarify with the managers first."

People around me all telling me its okay and don't worry about it. That makes me felt more guilty and angry at myself for making the stupid mistake. I strongly believed that people cannot be praised. The day before I was still being praised by my managers that I'm very hardworking. The very next day, this shit happened. REALLY IS CANNOT PRAISE ONE. But fortunately, the bosses and colleagues are really forgiving.


Just before I can calm myself down, another problem arises. I can only blamed myself for being a smart aleck. My HR manager asked the admins if anyone knows how to make a photo video. No one answered a thing, I raised my hand and said, "I can". 
Because I've made videos before using windows movie maker, I thought it would be a piece of cake. Neither did I expected that it is a GIGANTIC piece of cake that is too hard to swallow. I used two days to create the video using windows movie maker and just when I completed putting 500 photos with music, it just couldn't be saved. Probably due to the huge video size. 

So I went to Wei Shan's house to learn making the video using Macbook. Did all the way till midnight and finally managed to save it successfully. Tested the video at the office's TV(thats where they gonna display it), to my horror, it couldn't be supported. I was like,

Spent my entire weekend trying to convert the video to FLV format. Its either the free software can only covert a small size of the video or totally don't work. I even tried to upload to youtube and download the video as FLV version. Did managed to download the video but some of the songs were gone. TELL ME WHAT DID I DO WRONG TO DESERVE THIS. 

It was really frustrating but I don't want to just leave it hanging there, I want to complete my job nicely to impress my bosses. lols. Too ambitious huh~ okay la, not impress, at least not causing damage to my image that I'm unprofessional. Last resort, gonna head over to Wei Shan's house and try converting the video. If it still doesn't work, I'll really 死了这条心.

Wish me luck.
