Happy Life and Overtime

So yesterday, a major bug was found and because of that, we were told that we need to do overtime today to verify things.

However, it turned out that something went wrong with the servers (duh!) so, we were stuck. But it never dampened by spirits. Quite the contrary, I am happy here working (not pressured). I mean, I just thought I'd prepare the files that I can use when testing resumes. That would save me time and I can make my testing easier :)

Besides, who would not be happy? I am here having an Indian sit on this big chair, sitting pretty like I was at home; enjoying the aircon (its too hot outside); enjoying the free internet and dual monitor (to make our testing easier, we were given extra monitor that we can attach to our laptops); I had brought some home-cooked meal for lunch with me (I just had breakfast also with one business analyst and one system analyst awhile ago at Tropical Hut, the omelette is soooo good) and I am happily eating while listening to music; and the best part of it is that I am being paid for this overtime on top of my salary... :)

And I just saw my payslip yesterday hehehe... It made me realize things. I mean, this company had me when I was totally broken inside, when I cannot seem to do anything at all, when the best of me had left me already; but they still had me... So I think they deserve to get something worth their money. So, I vow to change from this day forward. They will have the Annie that they had hired, the Annie that other companies hired before...

Life is wonderful. I thank God for this!
