LIFE : THOSE DAYS

20 years ago Handphone and car was consider a luxury item and those who carry handphone or drive a car  was consider a rich man because the price for the both item was out of reach to the an ordinary man. Today those items can be bought at pasar malam. When I post this idea in my facebook I got a lot of responds from my friends. Some of my friends from Thailand feel curious because Salesmen  is selling a new car in Night Market. I told them yes, even complete with Bank loan and Insurance. Now you can see even a primary student caring handphone to school and a university student driving a car to campus. When I got my first job, I couldn't afford to buy even a secondhand motorcycle but today a new young government servant who just join the service can afford to buy a new car, Are they well paid or they get an easy credit from government cooperative bank loan? A car without down payment with 9 years repayment scheme. By the time they finish servicing the loan, the car that they  have bought will be no money value due to depreciation. Do you think this is the one of the main reason the contribution of bankruptcy among the young workers?

LIFE : PRINCIPAL

Telling the truth is something bitter but telling a lies is something sweeter. I talked to one of my friend thru a phone this morning. He asked me to manipulate a sale figure but I told him that I can't afford to do something that against my Principal. I prefer to be scolded because of telling the truth rather than telling lies but at the end people know that you are lying. Once you are lying forever people thinks that you a big liar even though people are listening to your talking but in their heart you are a big joker with a bullshit story. I always believe that the truth will be prevail. Respect is something that you have to gain by work on it. If you want people to respect you, you own self have to respect other people.

LIFE : RELAX

Taking my family for holiday much headache lately due to time factor because of  my work load. It's my tradition of taking my family for holiday once a year to bring togetherness with my family.My family is everything to me, They are the one who push me to work harder and a source of inspiration. Without them  my life is nothing and meaningless to me and whatever I'm doing now is just to serve and give them for a better future.Family is a special gift from the Almighty God, so it's my responsible to take care of them and a part of my duty toward Almighty God.Even though to bring up a good family isn't an easy task  but it's a big challenge .It's a part parcel of life that been given by Almighty God ,what ever I'm doing for the family will be questioned by the God when we return to Him. While I'm waiting for my family to ready I write this blog and my plan to take them to a remote place in Pengkalan Hulu for relax to run away from City life.........

LIFE : BEEN CHEATED

Yesterday I went to Great Eastern Insurance company in Jalan Ampang Kuala Lumpur with my younger daughter. Since it was almost lunch hour so I took simple lunch at Chicken Rice shop at the Great Eastern Shopping Mall. After taking my lunch I proceed to Level 8 to check my Group Insurance Policy because I didn't receive any statement since I joined in 1999, it's mean that I have been paying for the policy almost more than ten years. The paying mode by salary deduction thru my Nestle Human Resource. I was told by one of the clerk that my policy was lapse because the company insurance didn't receive any payment from the NUCW. It really shock me because I never fail to pay my monthly policy and I even show her my latest deduction from my salary. In other words my Policy not active. She told me that she can't check my policy in detail because the Officer in charge is on leave. She gave me her phone number to contact and promise to let me know the outcome of my policy once the Officer in charge back for duty on Thursday. I felt been cheated by the insurance company and NUCW. What will happen to my insurance policy if I don't even bother to check  and my question is where is my money go? Human error or administration error! I will not give up and keep on tracking my policy payment until everything in order.

LIFE : UNDER PRESSURE

Whatever we did yesterday is a history and today we have to start all over again. Thanks to Allah swt I did it. Hitting my first one million ringgit target for November. I can feel the satisfaction of hitting the target. There is never ending story in sale as long as when we are still working as a Sale person. As a Sale person our main objective is to hit the target that set by our superior and there is no try, we have to do it by hook or by crook. No try must do. We are paid to do the job and it's part of our responsibility. Stress and pressure is part of the sale game, it's only a matter of how we are managing the stress and pressure. Anyway too much pressure will spoil the mood of the day. One of my colleague told me that" either you work under pressure or not you still need to complete the task so don't pressure yourself, just do your best. Nobody is going to blame you as long as you already try the best"

LIFE : PART OF ART

Now, I really can feel that the pressure of doing sale specially when come to end month. This is my first sale target that given by my  lady boss. One million Ringgit, it sound like impossible to achieve but the reality is I almost there to hit my target. Saturday is supposed to be my off day but my dealer in Pengkalan Hulu keep on calling me by phone to update my sale figure. I still short another 15% to achieve 100%.  Today I had to drive to Baling to meet my supermarket buyer because  I need her help to give me some sale. Doing sale is a part of art and need a special talent how to convince and persuade because not everybody can do it. Needs a lot of planning and paperwork. I'm  in sale line almost fifteen years. In the fifteen years of my service with Nestle, lots thing that I gain from it through my experiences in handling the clients. As a professional Sale rep. my task is more to promote and sell the fast moving consumer products. The products that been used by most of housewife to prepare good foods.

LIFE : EITHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT?

Too busy to update my blog lately. Too much thinking of my daily sale target and too much worry about my target achievement.All these are main factors of contribution to stress and pressure. Now I can feel the work load until I can't  take my family for holiday as usual. Going for holiday is part of my family tradition and this tradition is continued by me,my brother and my two sisters. When I was a kid almost every years during school holidays, my father would took my family for holiday. My favorite place for holiday is Cameron Highland or genting Highland. Both cities have their own special with same common weather, cool.  Lately I can feel that I'm more concentrated toward my work. as I talked to my former boss Mr. Yang kok Ming. He said that "don't pressure your self and just do what ever you can do, don't think too much about the sale target because either you like it or not you still have to work".

LIFE : YOU NEED ME

After three weeks doing my own sales and now I'm realised that  I need to act fast before my competitors. My competitors are looking and staring at me every moment to know my next move. Time is crucial and every single ringgit is counted. Planning and implementation of planning is very important. The buyers are demanding specially when they know that I'm desperately need sales to achieve my target. I was told by the Seniors never ever show that you need sales desperately in front of buyer because they will squeeze you for better deal. Relax, cool and thinks how I'm going to use my skills to manipulate the sales by showing that the buyer needs me to achieve their target. Even though it's not going too easy but it's only a matter of how confidently I talk to convince the buyer, you are the one who needs me. In other words my goods your money. I offer you my service and goods that you needs, in return the buyers have to order some goods to achive my sales target. Win win situation..............................

LIFE : LIFE UNPREDICTABLE

Sometime we worry too much about tomorrow, actually can we guarantee that there will be tomorrow for us? As a human we just can hope that there will be tomorrow to continue our life. It may sound a negative but that is the fact of life that we have to face it. If we are given  a life tomorrow by Almighty God, can we guarantee that tomorrow will be much better from  today? Nobody can guarantee that because life is something unpredictable. Today you may in a good health but it can be a sick tomorrow. Tomorrow you may think that you still have a job but when you go to the office suddenly you are been fired. It's happen in front of my own eye. Base on my true story 20 years ago, one day  I met a man sitting alone outside the Surau Jalan Mohd Saad after the Asar Shalat. I just said hello to the man but he looked so quiet and I sat beside him, since I never saw him before and asked him whether he was staying in this area. He just replied yes and started to talk with me. We talked about life and I felt  like I was knowing him for a long time. After a few minute  talking with him and  told him that I need to go home because I have work to do. I told him thanks and hope to meet again.

As usual after the Maghrib Shalat I went to my sister restaurant. My sister restaurant was located opposite the Butterwort Hospital so I could see people walked in and out of the hospital. Then I saw a lot of people were waiting outside the emergency room. I was surprise to see my neighbour was there. I walked toward him and asked him what happen? He told me that one of our resident was passed away on his way to the mosque. He was knocked down by a car. I rush to the emergency room and I got shock to see that the dead body who was laying on the the bed was the man who I met  last asar.........Innalillah wa innailaiirajiuun.....from Him we came to Him shall we return. May Allah bless his soul and put him among the Solehin.

LIFE: REAL LIFE

These few days I have to stand on my own feet in selling activities. I have to face the real situation of buyer character. Keep on receiving a phone call even though at night or almost midnite. I have to face the dealer, buyer and merchandisers. Organise and need a good planning in terms of work wise. Quick to respond a buyer need and quick in every things to grap whatever premium stock to sanctified my buyer need. Now I am living in a real, real rat race world.
