the daily grind

these days, work starts @ 11 am for me, the daily grind involves the following:

1. rushing down to office to open the door for our aunty staff (whom we fondly refer to, internally of cos, as our "old fogies")
2. ra-ra-ing and settling them before the official work starts
3. updating the previous days appts status
4. clapping and cheering whenever the bell gets ring
5. updating results on the board
6. solving questions that come suddenly about product and stuff, sending emails, follow ups etc etc
7. ra-ra-ing again when the results are below expectations or nearing expectations
8. discussing about training, HR matters, sales etc etc
9. wrapping things up and tabulating the system
10. putting on the board what to discuss for tmr plus some monkeying ard with D. or having his frds come over

everyday ends with me feeling pretty drained from the day's activities. i guess thats entreprenuership for ya - when the onus of survival falls entirely unto our own laps, instead of having the "company" to rely on for operations or fall backs, every minute detail becomes crucial and a point to be wary of. it's tiring but at the same time, when things go our way, the pride and joy from knowing that all that planning and risk taking have paid off are just enormous. let's hope the day comes when we look back at our beginning and beam with so much pride as to how much we have achieved - that, i m sure, will be sweet.

p.s. i am so into ke$ha - tick tock is infectious!
