Racing with Time

Haha I guess by the lack of updates it's quite evident that work is crazyyy. I'm starting to see how challenging it can be - from the late nights, difficulty of the work itself, lack of time and manpower, managing relationship with client etc.

With work flooding all my weekdays, I only have the weekends to do the following:
- Have a social life LOL- Meet friends + church friends + family
- Practice piano (getting rusty 😭)
- Study for June's exam (haven't even dug out my books)
- Exercise (sitting down for the entire week isn't gonna do me any good 😂)
- Me time (ie I miss couch potato life)

It certainly takes a lot of prioritizing and effort to resist temptation on things that are time wasters (being a couch potato) and do what I gotta do!

Work wise, client relationship is one that stresses me out the most. Each engagement is rather short and we have to go in, build rapport with clients and work with them to get all the info/documents we need to complete work.

So last week I was quite surprised that the client actually invited me and my colleague to go for lunch with 2 of them! The people that we had been bothering for a few weeks straight actually wanted to hang out lolol.

So during lunch I was joking about how I feel like a loan shark that everyone wants to avoid hahaha. Funnily, the client said "you all take the role of the police and us the thieves, how can we be friends?" ... and right after proceeded to treat us to drinks 😂 He adds, "This one so cheap not considered bribery ah!" 😂

Ah so thankful for nice clients like this that really brighten up my day. :) Makes the whole environment of work so pleasant haha. 👌🏻
