Insufficient Pay?

New issue to raise in life...

We can always hear the crying sound of people "no money.......not enough money to cover expenses......why the salary is so low......"

I don't know whether this is the problem of the person him or herself,the matter of the country because of the slow-down of economy with high inflation rate, or the matter of the boss.Well,if I stand at the point of the boss,I can always say so to my staff,"We need extra money as reserve to meet the possible/foreseeable loss to the company.Perhaps,we need extra reserve for risk management." Well,it sound unfair to the staffs.At the same point,if I am the minister,I can always say so to my nation,"Be strong! Stand concretely! This is not forever! Our economy will boom in a very short period!".In fact,I may not know what will happen in the next few months.Well,economy may boom or may depress.Nobody can predict.I don't believe the prediction of the economist because the result always come out as the possibility of 0.000001.

Em...People like to shout out the unfairness.But,have they shout out the unfairness to themselves? We can see the matter in Indonesia where there was a period of time that the life of Indon-Chinese is threatened.Why? This is not because of fault of those victims but it is the fault of the antagonese!

Before we blame others,have we think about how much effort that we have put to get what we want?

Many people say that they are under paid.Well,can they keep changing the company in order to get a higher pay? I bet,once they get higher pay,they will look for higher than formal pay.This is what we call HUMAN.

If the salary is not enough,no point looking for other jobs! There will never be enough! People will have a question mark on my statement...Hey,why won't we look for an opportunity to get what we deserve? We have 24 hours a day,we have seperated the time to 3 times of 8 hours.First 8 hours, sleep; second 8 hours, work; third 8 hours,??? ...Why don't we use the balance of the 8 hours,perhaps 3 hours from it to do something which may help us to earn extra? Doesn't this is better?

Advantage:
1. No need to change job so often - clean profile
2. Manage to learn more thing which boss always do
3. No limit in income - how much to earn is decided by ourselves
4. Flexible - no fixed working time
5. Extra income

Disadvantage:
1. Tired

The ratio of the advantage and disadvantage of looking for an opportunity to earn extra income resulted in 5:1. So,what is the problem that people keep giving themselves excuses that cannot go on with the goal?

To conclude this blog,I will say,"those who say no to the topic,they are trying to stop their deserve.Those who say yes to it,they are trying to get what they deserve".

Good luck!

Tension

A company belongs to who...
Many people will argue that, company belongs to everybody who work in the company. However, as I think, company belongs to 1 person, who named BOSS.

I discover that, many employees can resign from the company they work in. But I haven't listen the statement, such as "a boss resign from the company". Retire is applicable, I think. So, should I say the arguement that "company belongs to everybody" is wrong? GREY AREA...

Is it important to work FOR others? I heard a statement from a TV program, "work much than you are paid now, earn much than you work in the future". I think it deeply...I got a conclusion. A COO (Chief Operating Officer) may not working too much and he is luxurily paid. Yes, I do agree. But does he really sit at the place to wait for money to come in? Em...Well, How do you think? I think "not really". Why...,

We may not see how a COO work. In my company, I can see a COO walk here and there, talking about tendering, talking about projects...Showing up the smiling face just once a blue moon. So, can we now say a COO doesn't work? The load may be more than us. The most difficult part for a COO to resolve is how to make the brain stop thinking the unsettled matter or the planning or possibly, the budgeting for a company.

So, is the statement that "work much than earn now,earn much than work later" correct? It is correct that people aiming for COO or CFO or CEO position. It is good to have a dream. However,what is the worth value of the dream? If, a person is a billionnaire but no good healthy condition, then what is the point to be so rich? Money can never brought into the coffin.

My teacher always tell me "decision should be made before working hard on something". I don't know whether you agree. To me, I perfectly agree! Imagine, if you work so hard on something which you know you won't get a fruit from it, will you go on it.

Conclusion has now to be made in 2 ways.

1. Is it a right thing to work on

2. Is it worth a value to work on

Organisational Politic

How many level can we actually discover in a company...
In my studies, I manage to discover few levels, which are lower management, middle management and higher management. I got this from my academic theory, which it is proven by the fact, to be wrong! The writor of the book or the philosopher always miss a thing, called POLITIC.

Yes, in every country, every province, which generally we call it everywhere, has politic. The is no exemption from a company also.

In parliment, we always can see 2 different teams debating. However, if we really look at it, an organisation also has its own political issue.

It is not fair for the fresh staff of a company. He/she doesn't know, in a company, who is correct and who is wrong. The correct and the wrong creats politic. People always say "Just side your boss, then you will be save". I don't really like this statement.

For me, I just like to mix with those who I can mix around with, talk to those who I can talk to. It is not a fault when talking to somebody, as long as no political issue is spreaded out!

This is the 1st time that I was talked by someone, not to mix around with those who cannot perform. Well, I don't think that is an issue, as long as I manage to complete my task on time. But why people always like to rate the others based on the performance? I hate it!

There is such description in movie from those gangster "The minute we are in the field, we don't have our space of freedom." I think this statement can apply to an organisation.

Well, I think the 1 who is very happy to see this matter, is not the winner of the politic but the boss.

Are we borned to involve in this issue? Or we are borned to enjoy life?

Time

It is so amazing...I can't understand why people can come out a conclusion that, time passes based on the shift of the world...hhhmmm...it is an issue which we have to study on.

I always hear the complain of people "NO TIME...NO TIME...NO TIME..." Have their 'world' stop shifting?

Currently,I come across with a suggestion.Meaningful! It is like below,
"1 day,we have 24 hours. This can be divided into 3 phases - 1st 8 hours, 2nd 8 hours, 3rd hours." Hey,don't we realise that,we have such a plenty time actually! Maybe our responsibilities have brought us away from such management.

I think,
1st 8 hours - rest time - sleeping
2nd 8 hours - working - income
3rd 8 hours - .........
Hey,the 3rd 8 hours are vacant! So what do you do?

Many people will do what they like to do in this vacant period.My coach always tells me "The successful people will do what they need to do; the failure people will do what they like to do".I agree! So normally I will use the vacant period to any necessary thing to improve myself, in both knowledge and income bases.Sound stupid,but worthwhile.Who wants to live hard? I bet everyone like to be joyful.Of course,to live in joyful,we have to work hard to build the environment ya! So I have make my 1st step to the joyful life. What about you?

All the best and good luck to you,friend!!!
