So Long

17 June 2003, I put my pen on my very first Agreement/Contract with Suntec Singapore. Today, 17 June 2008, I am celebrating my 5th Year Anniversary with Suntec Singapore.

Time flies. Freshly out from the school and army, I made a decision to follow my heart, devoted my time and energy to the job which at that time, I felt that it's the most wonderful job; F&B. Gradually my passion for the job brought me into the challenging MICE industry.

My journey in Suntec Singapore not only started in year 2003. To be exact, I was already roaming around in the Centre in green-batik uniform since late 1997. William was the one who recommended me to work in Suntec Singapore as a part-timer then. Subsequently Justin, Edwin, Hanyi and lots more from my High School joined in. Back then, my life was fun. Nothing worried me but just indulged myself in never-ending roti kaya spreading, plate clearing and a meal of Burger King after work at Shaw Tower. Those times working in Congress, Joaquim and Kopitiam was the most memorable.

Full-time job with the one of the Asian best Convention Centre is indeed a very challenging one. For one to go through the opening of an Outlet, raised through the rank and even went through the irony of Outlet Closing.. I stood out among the peers, I survived the retrenchment, I took control when I am called upon and eventually a transfer was arranged and I took it with pride.

Client Service job is tiring, working hours are extensive, emotionally I am hurt, the job responsibility has been affecting my personal life, and I hate to say this - the job is Stressful. BUT I kind of have a feeling for the job. I trust this job can build and enhance my character. It's kind of a OJT (On-Job-Training) stuff.

5th year has officially commenced. Looking forward to another great year.
