Yes I am a Singaporean
Hello! Its been a really long while since I've blogged and I feel terrible cause Ive got loads to share. Its been a roller-coaster ride with my Grandma's cancer, work related stresses and my trip to China. But before I share on that....
Yesterday at 4.40pm, a 40-page report was literally dumped on me and I was told to vet it... I had to submit it this morning... I looked at the clock and told the chief accountant that I had less then 14 hours to do it... She then replied, 'this is a singaporean company and you are a singaporean and you should be used to it...'
I stared at her saying that whatever it is it is no excuse to give anyone such last minute work and as I was telling her about how disgruntled I was, she replied by saying...'i don't know, i was only asked to hand this to you' YEAH IM SURE!
Anyways im now at the empty office sitting here waiting for people to come in... I've not had any sleep but at least the report has been completely vetted. The problem was, the english translations the vietnamese use makes no utter sense...english sentences are written with vietnamese grammer and the words used are utterly bombastic. (the vetted pages are RED with ink)
I really love Vietnam, but this company is making it really difficult for me to work well here. Everyone is disgruntled, im treated like dirt and am constantly being bossed around by really uncaring people.
My only relief is when I spend time with my church mates, and bible study last night was wonderful. God really took my mind off all the crap that was being thrown at me and it was wonderful to be in fellowship. Although Im not too thrilled with the unjust treatment im getting right now, i am only comforted with the knowledge that God has a plan for me here in Vietnam and I have to live it out in obedience to Him.
I ll share more soon...
