Work work work...challenge challenge challenge...

Can't believe this is the 3rd post of the day...which is also the 1st time since i created this blog...

Have so many things to talk about in a sudden...

And no surprise...it's work again...

Besides the super heavy workload,new staff in the team,new team & some colleague issues which might not have even existed...there is something else...

Now i am undergoing a training in another team under the same department...the team members in that team wants me to help with their workload...thus, they want me to undergo a training so that i can help with their job in the future...

When they 1st offer that, i took it without hesitating as i thought it was an opportunity to learn new things & gain more knowledge...

But one of my colleagues told me that actually they are using me to relieve their workload and the colleague claimed that they weren't as busy as i thought & they could have handle their workload without any problem...

Also,the colleague warned me that if i did something wrong,they would in turn blaming me even if my initial intention was to help them...

The colleague also specifically mention a member in the team that i'm in training with now...saying that the member is really smart & the member is using my trust to the member to relieve the work stress...

Not only that,the colleague claimed that the member befriended me so that i could help with the job...

To add on,it would be really difficult to handle both my hectic daily work & supporting other team's work at the same time...

Thus,the colleague wants me to only focus on my daily job as my daily job is giving enough headache to me & wants me to stop backing up other team...

I did sleep on the "advice" the colleague gave me & in fact i do have problem handling both my daily work & the training right now...

But i have decided to look at it from a different way...

Instead of running away from the problems that i have right now,i choose to face it as i created all of this at the beginning...

That's why i force myself to enter the office half an hour to 40 minutes earlier now so that i can finish all my daily work...though it is tiring & it's hard to push myself out from my bed every morning...

Also,i think it's bad if i can't keep my promise by helping the other team and it might create a reputation of me having the tendency of breaking promises...

But on the other hand,i know really well that i might not have what it takes to handle all of the above at the same time... 


Am i doing the right thing?or...?

 I can still remember a line that i read from a book " Be careful of the "friendship" that turns warm in a sudden"...

The book is about how to handle relationships in a working environment...the author warns the reader to beware of friendships that turns warm in the working environment without any reason...as it might be an indication that the person carrying bad intention...

Then, i have always been careful when it comes to relationship between colleagues...that's why i don't talk much in the office or any hang out sessions organised by my colleagues...
 
Is that pathetic?or...?
