老板杀死了我的梦 Part 2

音乐会突然变调，老板也会突然改变态度。

One day ago, The Boss crushed my dream, and the next day he told me apparently, HR had always allowed admin staff to work once a week from home, and for some reason, he had been here since like forever, and he never knew. Too stupid to be true.

But anyway, the bottomline is I get to sign up for my classes! Of course, due to my little run-in with the boss, it turns out that I benefitted the other admin colleagues as well, so everyone gets to stay one day at home. Good news for all!

As for my boss, I've given up on second-guessing his thoughts. I'll just cherish what I have for the moment, and hopefully this work-from-home arrangement lasts me as long as I'm here.

老板杀死了我的梦

This is one of those days where I feel I'm at the mercy of my work and my boss. The company claims that it has flexi-work arrangements but really, only we know the truth.

I tried to sign up for an evening singing class which is situated near my house and asked for permission to work from home for the duration of 6 Fridays. My direct supervisor allowed and I happily went to sign up, but now the Big Boss said no. He gave some reasons like unfairness and what not, but nothing much went into my head. I just thought it was really sad that I am 26 and I can't hold onto a dream I have because of an inflexible boss. I called the school and cancelled the class. It will have to wait. It's ironic that when I was a student I can't sign up for singing classes cos I didn't have the money. And now, I have the money, but I can't make the time.

Life's tough, and this is one of the days where I can't sing its tune.
