Every day I am hearing corporation cutting headcount to size the company according to their revenue. Yeap axes are falling everywhere and it is faster that we can avoid. I am so tired of it that I want to stand still. If it falls on me, let it be. I have been through many rounds of recessions because I have been working for this company for many years.
The first round, it was in the year 2000 I believed I was very anxious and there were 3-5 rounds after that. I am pretty much immune to it by now. Somehow the axe is always avoiding me instead of me falling on me. When I was working in KL, the last company I was with was also retrenching. They cut all of my colleagues in my dept except me. I was so disappointed in a way because I really had planned to move to Penang. Well, I went to plan B and spoke to HR, volunteering myself. She was kind to give me something.
Today, I am pretty sad because I heard a few of my colleagues were affected. It makes me just want to volunteer myself, if I could. Ultimately the working environment is not the same anymore. Morale is at the bottomless pit.
One of my colleagues just tempted me, saying with the tax exemption benefit it is good money. I have been with the company long enough to get a good package. Hrmmm…should I volunteer? Maybe I act as if I had Mesothelioma. If I did get the package, I will definitely take my family for a good vacation.
