Last year of the same day, I signed my appointment as a permanent employee (not to mention the position) of one of those prestigious hospitals in my hometown, Amai Pakpak Medical Center. So, today, marks my first year of service rendered. How time flies, ha! Subhanallah. :-)
Well, never did it cross my mind that I would be exercising my profession here after teaching because whenever I heard the word 'hospital', first things come in my mind were doctors and nurses in white apparels or perhaps people whom deal with curing lives. As a matter of fact, when someone introduced me APMC, I reacted like 'Huh? Anong gagawin ko don?'. Never did it come to my senses that a hospital needs also an accountant for their financial accountability and whatever finance related aspect it may contribute. So, there I met APMC, I met random people of different professions such as doctors, nurses, social workers, and etc. And of course, the BIG BOSS, the obsessive compulsory slash humpy grumpy slash workaholic slash what he wants you follow slash huhubels type. HAHAHAHA. Sssssshhhhh.
When you are new to a certain institution, first thing in your mind to do is to impress your boss, right? You have to give your best shot just to catch your boss' attention and appreciation. I think that's what i've been trying to do the past year. I guess, it worked. If you may know, year 2014 was grounded on my career. I spent overtimes. Most of my weekends were spent in the office just to finish overdue backlogs. Transitory period as it was. I've struggled a lot as expected. But, I've learnt a lot too as well. I've discovered things about myself that I thought I can't do before. I have been versatile as how they would describe me in the office. I never thought I would have surpassed last year with a very strong will. And I remained patient and humble. Alhamdulillah.
However, while being busy at work, I've got exposures too with seminars and trainings. One of government employee perks is to travel with teneneneeeen, free allowance. Haha. I have learnt traveling alone and deal with unknown people because I really am a anti-social person. Good thing, I have come to beat it from time to time. As per travel's experience concerned, I've been to Ilo-ilo, Cebu, Manila, and Clark, Pampanga last year. And I'm looking forward for more travels this year onwards. Teheee.

Thus, It feels surreal and glorious how I've gone so far and I am forever grateful for what I have become now. I love my work inspite of its lethal tasks it imposed upon me. Aside from its convenience since it's a few distance away from home, I am near with my loved ones, I could extend help to the people I know or even strangers in little ways I can and most importantly, I'm earning a halal income. Indeed, what is made halal for you is good for you because I can really feel the barakah of it. May Allah never ever let me engage with something has to do with bribe or whatelse isn't permissible. May He grant us profession that would be meant for His deen only. in shaa Allah. :-)
Above all, Glory be to God whose in control of everything. Ü
(Disclaimer: This post has been remained to my drafts since 18th of February. And yet, I'm greeting myself again a HAPPY FIRST YEAR OF BEING A GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEE. More power and Godspeed!)
