In the corporate world, if you work hard you will be rewarded with benefits. But in the bureaucracy, if you work hard, you will be rewarded… with more work. That’s why I learned to work smarter and not work harder.
I have to be at the office today to meet the Globe people. We were having problems with our DSL connections (we have two) since December, even before that earthquake in Taiwan. Apparently, a lot of Globe Broadband subscribers whose modems are Pro-Link are having the same problems so the latter is sending over their Singaporean technical staff.
We don’t get overtime pay but since there’s no such thing as a free lunch anymore, I thought I should make it a win-win situation for me. After all, I postponed my schedule of going home to Iloilo just to be here today. Fortunately, the guys did fix the connections (for now) so I get to surf, download and blog for free. Not bad huh? Considering I have to be here anyway, so I might as well get the better of it.
