Who's the Boss?

Immediate superiors are the primary Bosses, they are the ones who order you to finish this, finish that, and up they go ride their expensive cars, while you make your self absorbed with the pending works and beating the deadlines. 

The next morning the Boss will ask for it, read a little, ask some questions and sign, then up he goes again. The department get noticed because of the staff but who gets the credit, not me not you but the Boss.

Employees are human and bound to make mistakes, something wrong happened, who will be blamed? Definitely not the Boss but us employees who are doing all the work. Then he will call you for a meeting saying all those nasty words as if you were the dumbest person on earth. 

 A month will pass and you’ll get your hard earned salary, but please don’t ever compare your salary with that of the Boss surely you will be disappointed knowing that your basic salary is just as much as the Boss’ Accommodation allowance, do not attempt to look at his salary package as in this case you may get an heart-attack, your salary is just 20% of his, and you do almost 100% of the work. 

Someday you or me may become the Boss, don’t ever forget how it is when you were still the slave. Be a father or a mother to your staff and you’ll get the respect of a child to his parents. Delegate the job, supervise, be there when they need your guidance, be part of the mistakes and make decisions as if you're in the household as the head of a big family which is the real essence of being the BOSS.

  1. Being a subordinate is not easy. So every should aim to become a boss himself or herself someday.

    This is about the only way for one to gain what they call "financial independence," which means living in comfort without steady employment.

    Become a boss yourself by developing a second income or sideline. This is not difficult to do thanks to the internet and communications technology and the help that can be obtained readily from online business mentors.

Mga Bagong Bayani (OFW) Ipagbunyi inyong Kadakilaan

Sa bawat daan na iyong tinahak Sa mga luha sa mata mo pumatak Sa katawan mong pagod at batak Sa pamilya mong muntik mawasak Sa bawat mga araw na lumilipas Sa yugto ng buhay mong nalalagas Sa damdamin mong nagagasgas Sa mga nagdaraang mga oras Saan ka kaya patutungo? Sino kaya ang sa luha magpapatuyo? May hahagod kaya sa katawang hapo? Manitili kayang pamilya mo ay buo? Araw na lumipas maibabalik ba? Makikita ba mga sandaling nawala? Kaya pa ba sa bigat ng iyong dala? Oras na nagdaan mapapalitan ba? Mga Bagong Bayani....Ipagbunyi inyong kadakilaan..

OFW Christmas Blues (Pasko na Naman)

I can smell the “Spirit of Christmas” but I cannot feel the joy it brings like it does when I am still back home in the Philippines. Christmas in the Middle East is just an ordinary working day unless it falls on a Friday. Unfortunately this year it falls on a Thursday and it only means that while almost all people around the world are celebrating CHRISTMAS we the “Middle Easterners” are in the office working and contemplating at the same time. Maybe I can treat myself with a piece of shawarma after office and walk along the corniche (Bay area) and probably order “milked tea” while trying to enjoy the cold breeze.

OFW Success Story (Eden Zaniega de Castro-Villa)

Eden Zaniega de Castro-Villa, who had worked in Hongkong as a household service worker (HSW) to earn dollars for her family in La Union, is now generating much bigger income from her handicraft business, which was expanded with the financial assistance from the Overseas Workers Welfare Association (OWWA). “After working overseas, I decided to go home and open a small school and office supplies and craft store ,” shared Eden, who also at the same time was engaged in silk farming. Source: Official Website of the Department of Labor and Employment For OFWs, this is the kind of story that keeps us motivated to dream. The story of Eden Zaniega re-invigorates my enthusiasm to go on. It gives me hope that someday I too can succeed on my future plans after retiring as an OFW (Overworked Filipino Worker) Oops! I mean Overseas Filipino Worker (smile). Being away from home just to provide for the family is not the life I have imagined of having when I got married. I wanted a simple yet comfo...
