How do you like your coffee?

Okay, it's 11:00AM, and as useless, I've got nothing to do. I came in half an hour early today as I need to leave earlier too. Everyone's in today too -- it's a full house -- meaning there's heaps more hands around to do stuff.

Bevin imported the cheques today, and as soon as I noticed the new imports, I walked straight over to his desk to ask for the files so I can start processing them. He immediately took hold of the statements and possesively held the paper against his chest. Whoa, I never pictured myself having to fight for more work! Any way, I told B that if he wants it that bad, he can have it. He gave me a cheeky smile. We've been hush-hush talking about how slow things have become here at work. He even jokingly asked who's next to get retrenched. I gave him a darting look to say "Don't broadcast that sort of stuff".

I've taken out my tweezers and started plucking my eyebrows. Tacky? Yes. But there's nothing to do... And I've got to prep for later. Hope I'm not sounding too cocky over here. I know a few people would love to trade places with me now. Hello Convergys people servicing Sprint?hehe. Yeah, I admit, things could be a lot worse. I remember my days working in a call centre - good gracious! I would die if I had that much work and stress. I'm in such a polar opposite now. Which would I prefer? Hmm.. That does require a bit of thought.

If one is after a cruise-y life, the no hassles, stress-free kind of life - this routine I have now is the way to go. There's no challenges but I can go online anytime, and if ever work does come along, I can do them with my eyes clsoed. A worry-free life. Aahhh....

On the other hand, a dyanamic work is good for one who wants excitement and variety. This works well for people who thrive on the adrenaline rush.

My ideal work is something that's never routine but still well-organised nonetheless. A duty that requires me to think, find solutions and have that "aha! moment" from time to time. Ever since school, I thrive under pressure. The feel of getting sucked into what ever I'm doing ignites passion and when the storm is over, the sense of accomplishment can also be oh-so- gratifying.

I do (sort of) still see the perks of this rut I'm in. I'll have to admit, this isn't how I want it to be for the rest of my life.
