I'm leaving on a jet plane...

Well, not really...
Not yet. Though i wished i could now...

Honestly, my fire and desire to work for the current company i'm in now has been totally extinguished. There are a couple of factors to why i'm feeling so right now.

1) Promotion rate is too darn slow.
Seriously, it's ridiculously absurd. Promotion is once every 3 years. Every T-H-R-E-E years! OMG! Ain't that stupid? Do they really expect me to work for 30 years only to be a CFO? Dream on...!

2) Underpay!
With the experience i have under my belt now, i should be getting 1.5x to twice of what i'm getting now! But nope. Not here... the salary payout scheme is still based on a survey conducted 10 years ago... that's freaking T-E-N!
Take for example, a fresh grad in the current market is averagely getting around RM2.4k. Not in this company though. Fresh grad is still paid a whimsy RM1.8k which is almost equivalent to a fresh grad 8 years back!

3) Screwed up management
This is the first time i come across a management that doesn't promote internally when there's a vacancy. They rather source externally! A really good fren and colleague of mine had been working here for quite some time. Her performance is also quite good. But then again,
i'm disappointed that they insist not to promote her though she's a good staff. In a way, it shows how much the management is appreciating their "staffs" indirectly. Good! Keep up the good job! S***** boleh!

Anyways, i'm in the midst of searching for greener pastures. Somewhere faraway... At the moment, i'm looking for jobs in Singapore but my ideal place would be the United States. As i've mentioned in my earlier post... i really do miss the US aLOT!

*sad*

Honestly, some might ask... "are you going there because of the favorable currency exchange rate?"
Hell no!
Though money is important, but the thing that i'm seeking for is better living condition and better standard of living.
That's what i mean by greener pastures.
*winks*

It's been a while since i started applying for oversea jobs and it's kinda discouraging cause there ain't much response so far.
But i'm not giving up yet! I'm pretty much determined.
I just wanna leave this country!
Let me rephrase, I NEED to leave this country!

Well, i'm still praying hard about this... and hopefully God will open a door for me soon.
