Today is 8th January 2020 and last year today i.e, 8th January 2019, I started my journey with BPRE. Entering the Corporate World, I have so much to share. Firstly, I am thankful to God for showing me this way. I am extremely grateful to the entire BPRE team and I simply love having each one of you around.
Time really flies, it’s like yesterday we started working together and today its a whole year 🥳 Office is really my second home and incomplete without you all. I have become a better version of myself and learned so much from all of you 🙏🏻 I am blessed to have a family like this 😇 I am glad I am here 🥰 One year and counting 🎉
Thank you for being a part of my Journey
With so many ups and downs in the office, I remember the time of being a teacher. I taught for 8years in a School and never ever thought of joining the corporate world. Now that I have had a taste of both the worlds I really feel different, now that I am married too with so much added responsibility. But despite all odds, I wake up every day happy to go to the office.
I did my best while being in school. Although there are pros and cons of both the profiles. While being in teaching, I had to wake up so early, just get ready and leave, now I have to cook and clean and send my husband to work & then I go for mine. Standing the whole day in school and talking at your highest voice is something that I no longer have to do. But sitting in the office all day in front of the screen also makes me go mad sometimes.
Maintaining a balance between Work Life and Personal Life
We were not even allowed to use our phones in the school, while in this world there is no such restriction. I miss the part of surrounded with cute hearts throughout the day and making their lives better. Here in the office, we have grown-ups with so many differences and so much experience. I learned a lot here, apart from the profile I am on in this office. This was a huge shift for me. But honestly, I love every bit of it.
I still remember the struggle of standing all day with a ligament tear and teaching with a smile on my face, meeting my bestie every single day and still have time to do random stuff when I used to go back home. But every day teaches you a lot. I had a great experience and cried so much on my farewell. Joining the office I had so much anxiety, as I had heard about the politics that goes on in the corporate world, thought about how I will be doing justice to my personal and professional life. But with the passage of time, everything falls in place. I have found the best of people here.
In the end, I am pleased with all that happened. Maybe it was meant to happen for a reason. I have learned a lot in my journey so far and trying to become a better version of myself each day. My journey is still in progress and there is a long way to go.
It’s fantastic that you are getting ideas from this post as well as from our argument made at this time.
