rl woes

I thought about devoting more time into the upcoming research paper. I’ve yet to get into full gear ahead but I thought if I would want to put more weekends into it. that’ll probably jeopardize my job at rl..which I’ve been hanging on for a few reasons. I’ve got to rant about the fact that discounts are no longer attractive nor are there any sponsorships I’ve heard about for this year. There are no pull factors, apart from the pay, that’ll make me want to stay on.

It started pretty well, to be honest. However, there’ve been so much cut in the perks these days. In fact, mr guava would be getting $200 sponsorship for being a volunteer runner, but how about me? (being there on Tuesdays for the runs, for nothing!bleah!) I’ve worked for 2yrs+ at rl and I’ve never qualified for this sponsorship either.

Seems like being a volunteer counts better than being a part time staff.

Sian.

If I quit being a staff, mr guava would still be entitled to staff purchase for being a volunteer. And I might just sign up as volunteer too, anyway when mr guava goes for the runs, I’m always there too.

1 more month before announcement of pay increment. Let’s pray I get one that’s substantial enough, then I’ll probably quit rl.

So much for rl woes. On the flip side of the coin, by working 5mths at rl, I’ll be able to afford the pink sony cr-35! Vanity! Vanity!!

oh look! the cr35 in white which mr guava says it's pretty!
