Arggghhhh…… I just got a call from Accenture and they wanted to postpone (again) my join date. It took my anger management skill not to snap upon hearing the news. I supposed to join on May 15, but they said it would be better to start at the beginning of June, I considered it and agreed. Well I got the time to study and prepare myself for so many things like my confirmation sacrament preparation, my church activities which unexpectedly increased in a magnificent speed and also to take some exams to get myself certified. But now they wanted to postpone it again to June 16.
This time it was (in my opinion) almost unacceptable. They told me just two days before my join date. Is that what you call a multinational company? Where the professionalism?? How could they only know the project schedule was postponed only a few days before a staff supposed joining the team? Don’t they have project management?
I know it was my fault not to get my hand on the contract first. I said okay to get the contract the day I join. It’s a lesson I will never forget. Accenture…you’re very disappointing…I expect more professionalism, but it seems I put my expectation too high….way too high.
Maybe some part of my anger was also caused by an unfortunate event I experienced earlier. I supposed to meet a girl at lunch time, but when I got to her office she was out and didn’t bring her cell phone. I waited for 40 minutes but still I couldn’t reach her. So I went to Plangi for a while and headed back home. You know when things didn’t go as planned you tend to get irritated. In my case, it made me think negatively…that she’s avoiding me. I don’t know about that but thank God I managed to get rid of that negative thinking…..but after I thought about it, it made sense. Maybe she’s trying to keep a distance. Well, if that what she wants, she’ll get it…..
As a closure, I just wanna scream out loud….. ARRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!
