After 10 years

Can't believe 10 years have gone since I first started working. I am now currently working in my 11th year but I can still remember how my first day went. It is so weird thinking back to my first day. I never thought I would get this far with this job. Cos many people who knew me, would know that I never liked working with children. But here I am still.......

The past 10 years has been a wonderful experience. And even now, everyday I learn something new. It does not matter whether it is in regards to the children, myself or my job.

Many people would go WOW! when hearing about my work with children with special needs. But I never thought of it as a big deal. I always feel that every job in the world is important.

For example, everyone thinks it is easy to be a cleaner and it is a low qualification job. But do you know that there are ways to sweep properly. That there are steps to cleaning the toilet. Why certain equipments can be used and cannot be used.......

Do you think it is easy to be a world leader? The decisions you have to make. Can you imagine how one decision can affect millions of people. That you can never please EVERYONE. Do you want to be that person who has so much money but can never sleep peacefully, knowing you are hate by millions...........You can offer me millions of dollars BUT I would never one to be that person!

Everyone always thinks they can do better than that other person. But when they are handed the dirty plate, no matter what detergent you use, that plate is sometimes only clean on the surface. It can still be very oily. It does not matter what job you are doing, what matters is that you love it!

Ok back to me. I love my job. Yes I do complained about the people (I am only human), about how things are managed but everyday I learn something new. I learn how to work better, how to be a better person, how to handle the stress better. And it helps a lot that I am working with a wonderful team of people. My team of people is so helpful, so wise and so full of knowledge. I cannot ask for anything better. I am working with wonderful teachers to look up to, to learn from, so how can I hate my job! 2014 seems to be starting out as a good year for me........
