Inner thoughts

I feel much better

Went for product training course tdy at Katong, heehee no need to work and can come home earlier...tml still have another half-day training haha. Finally met Alvin and Gary whom I have been working with for the past 2 weeks or so and get to know Sidia and Emily better. By the way, the 4 of them are personal bankers (pb) and have been working with 3 of em except for Emily.

Found Sidia and Emily quite easy-going and helpful, Emily joined the bank around 1 week earlier than me and Sidia maybe 1-2 months earlier than me only...but heard fr em actually most of the pb there are less than 6 months cos' they were informed by rhb that e bank didn't have pb in the past!?!? (don really sound believable right?) Realised that besides me, many of the newcomers have been "conned" into the bank cos' most were not aware that our pay includes 2 months bonus already! But I thk my case worse than em cos'I most prob will be asked to do collections sooner or later like my predecessors-Irwin & Victor who used to do credit control at UOB and doing collections now at rhb on top of assessing loan applications! However, I felt really relieved that I'm not the only person who has been conned into coming here :P (was feeling really depressed ever since I came to noe abt it)

Rec'vd an offer from uob to do custody operations, supposed to give em a reply tml, if not early next week...still considering whether to take up the offer. They can AT MOST offer me the same pay, which have not even been confirmed by e mgt...but overall the pay will be higher cos' there's a 13-mth pay at uob. Secondly, not sure whether custody is the dept I wanna go into...have been wanting to go into treasury instead and after going thru a session of what treasury dept do at tdy's training has made me even more keen to go into treasury...haiz...but sadly there's no suitable vacancies now at rhb, they are looking for an experience person to head the futures dept.

If I'm intending to go overseas to further my studies, I will stay at RHB instead since it's just a few more months down the road...but still not yet decide whether to study...cos' if my bro is not going then most prob I don feel like goin too...haiz...

On the way home, Emily told me actually a few of em are on the lookout for other jobs too though they have been w e bank for barely few months...felt that e bank really shouldn't have "lie" to us abt our pay, now so many pple are intending to leave...haiz so disappointed...told Emily really regretted rejecting dbs offer and she comforted me saying still not too late, can still look for another much better job, and stressed not to put rhb experience in the resume else will look badly when future employers saw...kinda portray a job-hope image...even said she noes a few frens in other banks, can help me if I wanna get in...felt better after her encouragement...I seemed to see a ray of hope :)
