Real work starts tomorrow.

So far, it's been quite a treat. We feel like royalty, actually, with everything served at our tables. We have free morning snacks, free lunch, and free afternoon snacks. We get free insurance education which other employees have to study on their own. Even though we've taken 3 quizzes and a final exam for that insurance education program, the school atmosphere still shelters us from the real thing, from the real world. Moreover, executives take time to talk to us about the departments they're heading. We even had a breakfast meeting with the CEO and president of the company, JLC himself.

We're very fortunate, indeed. But you know what they say: "To whom much is given, much is expected." One of the things which Mr. Sotelo, the SVP for HR, warned us about is that people are always watching us. The nastier ones want to see us fall flat on our faces. It's a scary thought which really bothered me. Ms. Lani, one of our trainors, placed it in a less scary light: these people just want to challenge us, to see if we are really worth the royal service. Again, it's less scary, but scary still. There's a lot of proving to be done.

The proving starts tomorrow. Tomorrow, the free snacks will be gone, the free lunches will be gone, and the school atmosphere will be gone. Tomorrow, we will start rounding up all the departments. Here are the mechanics. For each department, an area trainor will be assigned to us. After training ends, a project will be assigned. This project will be presented to the executives in a meeting presentation. We will then be graded on our work, then we move on to the next department. After six months, we will be asked which department we wish to be assigned to. If this fits with their results, we go there.

During this period, we will be watched. We will be challenged. I don't know if I can handle it, but I hope I can. I'm sorta kinda confident I can. Hee. We will still be sheltered in a certain way, anyway, and that soothes me. We do not wish to be called spoiled brats, of course, and that, too, will motivate us.

Tomorrow, I will be going to the Marketing department. I know nothing about marketing, but I'll do my best to learn the tricks of the trade. Good luck to me! :)
