New Department - New Office

It’s time to rotate to another department – Ground Handling Division for 3 months! Feel very sad to leave terminal office, I was the only one moving out and going to my new office far far away. I wonder where will I be seated once I join that department. All I know is it’s a department full of guys and I hardly know them. I was worrying how to get along with them and what will be the programme installed for me.

Tidied up my stuff, dismantled my desktop and put on the trolley and I was ready to go reluctantly. “I don’t want to go there” I nagged. I felt very sad because I was used to the office I was in and I was very comfortable with it. I am going to miss all my office mates and my gang.

“Sorry ya, this is a smoking office” said my new manager. I was shocked and almost fainted because I hate people smoking and now I will be suffering here inhaling cigarette smoke? It was beyond my expectation. I could see all the guys here walked in and out holding a cigarette.

As soon as I settled down, I attended ground handling meeting with big boss and most of the staff. I was warmly welcome by them and big boss was going to arrange the schedule for me and possibly 3 months period will be extended to longer duration and there is a need of working shift.

I tried to adapt to the new environment and took the initiative to read passenger handling training manual. *interesting-nyer*!! I felt sleepy and helpless as there is no tasks for me to do right away and it’s like I went back to square one to start all over again like how I felt when I first joined in the company.....
