Think I lost it when I was having a drink with Koufu & Koumo tonight at Langhram place...=( Think I walked for a mile today inside the new office...pantry and bathroom are too far far away...but then it's nice, I mean, even though everything didn't turn out as expected, finance dept got all fired up, and my space is smaller than it should be, it's nice~ should be a nice place to work at after everything is settled, and I should have firmer thighs too because of the miles I will be walking and walking and walking all day, all night long...
5/18: Went to the TST police station for the second time, first time was a month ago when my Thai boss lost his Prada in a bus (with a laptop, 2 phones and $10,000 cash in it). It's actually quite funny, cos' when my friend was reporting her case to the police, one of them was like, "weren't you here before some time ago?" Yea and I remembered some of them too. Haha. They were like, "wow so you're like an agent for us now huh?" Friendly and funny policemen =) *** Thursday night @ Club Cliq & Sugar...ai, 4 glasses of wine + 1 baileys and already dead...but then watching catwalk was pretty fun~ Friday: Working in the morning as usual, packing afterwards. To be true, I enjoy working. It might not be the best company to work in, boss might not even make sense sometimes, and I might not be able to learn a lot, but then I feel the efficiency is coming back again. In other departments' eyes, marketing is nothing but spender who doesn't care about company's well-being as a whole. And we dont' even perform. Sure enough, there're blames we shall hold liable. As a part of the marketing team and especially for online marketing, coming up new ideas and creatives on weekly, or even daily basis is part of our job. When one creative does not perform, new idea has to come up. To be true, I enjoy each brainstorming session, because that's when all the brain sink in. I like being creative too. To everybody else, "thinking" is something abstract. They cannot see the work behind each "thinking" process - actual copy, artwork and layout, booking media and setting media-id, tracking performance, making sure projection and forecast are met, communicating the creative to every channel, and keeping everything under the budget. Not to mention the timeline for each "thinking" might probably be just 1-2 hours and then another layout and artwork have to come up right away when the "thinking" does not perform. Nonetheless, these are often overlooked by most people. A few months ago I was confused about my value as a person and a part of the marketing team too. Yet it's getting more clear to me that we are worthy enough to spend. Then again, we still have rooms to improve, as slightly better is still a "better". And therefore I will still be the first one to arrive the office everyday =) |
