The Tale of Xrystiann's Link Building Journey has Ended

Posted in Labels: , , , , , , | at 5:34 AM

Compared to the other, my accomplishments as Link Builder in one of the Outsourcing Companies in Iloilo City, Philippines, have all been petty and insignificant. The tale of one's journey is decided by how it ends. I lived believing that my failures would build character and that they were trials that honed my skills. I would accomplish a deed so great that it would obliterate all my failures. At least that's how it was supposed to end. But, at the end of my tale... Is this how it ended? - Termination!

I did not regret being terminated. But what hurts me is knowing that they can't even terminate someone who is working for "a close relative of the company owner?" Is this true? A company that is so UNFAIR. Working on a US-Managed company but getting minimum monthly pay? It can't even support my daily meals. Oh I forgot, they can't even get the air-condition fixed. - Afterall, I did not consider working here as my bread and butter, it's more of getting experience and training for a better job ahead. A company considered to be a parking lot for those who are learning to become a freelancer. But somehow, teaching someone to stand up on their own feet. Just like I do.

The Tale of Xrystiann's Link Building Journey has Ended, Here and Today - October 26, 2010!

The Third Night... Nothing Fractures Like Failure!

Posted in Labels: , , , , , , , , , , | at 2:06 PM

... Still working as a VA. Even with my previous job, working as a call center agent, I was already a VA. That was the time that I started living my live as a VA, as in VAmpire. Since then, I started calling myself as Desmodus Rotundus.

The third night of my training... I started to lose my sense of time. And for the past two (2) days, I even forgotten what an actual traffic jam looks like and how it feels like to sit through one. A dejavu, a feeling as though an event has occurred once before, a new situation one has witnessed and experienced previously. With all these thoughts in my mind, I was given a task, a task to transcribe a video. I was able to complete the task like thirty (30) minutes after the given deadline. In short, it was late. I was then told to see Wilrose for my Email and Calendar Management task. She showed me how to create events. With an hour of statement to make things comprehensible, I still FAILED - not able to pass the exam. I didn't even follow the instruction. I once remembered when she told me that she can give score as low as zero (0) and as high as perfect score. With this, I know what I got. I was totally KAPUT!

Nevertheless, Van told me that I did well in some tasks, which is pretty normal to say to a trainee to boost self esteem and to feel proud of yourself, a good strategy. I admittedly say I was once a runt, not only physically but the weakest of all others. VAT changed me, anyhow... and getting used to the place and fleshlings here.
