A MIND OF MY OWN | Sunday, May 6, 2012 @ 11:00 AM

A friend snob:
When someone moves to a different place, but refuses to make new friends because he/she feels that these new people are not good enough and could never compare to their old friends.
Yikes, I'm showing signs of being a "friend snob".
I don't mean to be judgmental but I can't be bothered to please everyone, especially acquaintances. Heh, this shouldn't be a concern among old friends. It disappoints me when I see sincerity lacking in humans. I know it's mean and wrong of me to write off acquaintances in my life without putting in much of an effort to know them better, but I'd like to think of it as a self-imposed measure to prevent time-wasting on someone who wouldn't reciprocate my good intentions. To put it crudely, someone who isn't worthy of my time.

People who go through the motion of work, will they ever receive job satisfaction? For me, I do everything with my best effort because at the end of the day, I'd like to take home with me the knowledge that I've carried out my duties to the best of my abilities.
That said, I have a new found respect for others who have earned their stripes but have remained humble and willing to impart their knowledge to greenhorns like myself. They inspire me and I'm comforted to know that humanity does exist even in this complicated industry. I believe in mutual respect and patience to create a positive working environment.

I'm not complaining about my job because I really love to be of service to others.

There was an old lady who told me that the flight was her "best flight ever", and I'd like to think that I made a difference to her flight experience. It was as simple as sparing her a few minutes of my time during the lull period to listen to her opinions, and checking on her from time to time during the flight. Well, I've always had a soft spot for little children and the elderly because I know that these two categories of humans are so fragile. They have to be handled with extra patience and care.
 I can't wait to be well versed in my product and service knowledge, so that I can pay more attention to these two categories of pax instead of scrambling to learn during my free time :)
Hopefully, the next half of the year will fly and I'll be less jittery and more confident in my work duties!

ENOUGH OF WORK RAMBLINGS! 
Have a great Sunday guys :)


Love, S
