February 22, 2008Just a quick blog on the many faces of the blog author:
1. THE CAREER COUNSELOR- being the HR practitioner that I am, part of my duties is to console the workaholic and the underpaid and even the dazed and confused friends who are experiencing career crisis. Who am I to preach anyway? I just lay out the cards. You pick your choice.
2. THE SHOCK ABSORBER- the shoulder-to-lean-on, slash sponge slash stress ball–to a colleague who is undergoing the 7 stages of letting go….Dammit! I am a victim of empathy. I should always wear the smug on my face to shoo them away. But o well.. I guess, I’m naturally calming as one person once said. I am a freaking chamomile tea.
3.THE MEDIATOR slash GLADIATOR- When sides are drawn.. and fights commence.. I am the human shield. I am not the voice of reason. Literally, I can be a human shield.
4. THE FAMILY NURSE/ CAREGIVER/ PHARMACIST (DRUGGIST) - when my housemates are sick–literally or otherwise.. I take charge of….the sponge bath (eeeewwws–joke), the dispensing of medicines and the whole works. My personality test once showed that I am a nurturer by nature. Yeah, right.
5. THE INSTANT MASSEUSE-Although, I have no background in reflexology and such…My friends say I’m pretty good at it. Well, what is labor of love?
6. THE GARBAGE COLLECTOR (PARA UBOS TADA)- For some reason, I don’t mind eating left overs. Simply put, I am a PIG. PERSON IN-CHARGE of GARBAGE. I also throw the trash every now and then.
7. THE RESIDENT BURAOT. My favorite identity. I need not explaining. I guess I’m just the way I are.
