All About Questions




By Jojette Asumbrado Ramos

Now that I am in a new QA staff, my working atmosphere is getting better. There was a time, I thought my ratings will never see the light of day, it dived so low, the abyss was just a breath away. 

I have a breathing space at present and I could again infused my enthusiasms to my daily routines at work. One scenario, to reiterate my point, happened during our not so short after worked meetings, but at least compared before, now is much brief and concise. The QA said, “When u answer your customer’s questions, do not answer it with another question”. Then a rendition of Alfred Mann’s band popped to my mind, I said,” Miss, that is what we call…(started singing the adlib)… ‘They answered my questions with question’” They all looked at me with blanked expression on their faces. Oh gosh, a decade and a half of gap, indeed. I had to bite my tongue and contained my bubbling laughter inside. I realized, there are jokes according to generation.

50


By: Jojette A. Ramos


It is time to do ultimatum. I am tired of waiting, I just have to give up because I do not know the reason why I still stayed. I’ve been looking but the thing is, it is all empty.

When will you be the person I preferred you to be. It is all a waste time to linger, have to move on. Life has to be lived with utmost adventure and thrills.

I wanted to live in an adventurous life and a happy one too. Why is it I feel like a prisoner with you, I thought you will set me free.

Usapang Panuhot Syndrome

What liniment is best for "panuhot" or para sosyal, "gas spasm"? Most importantly, the one that will not be stinky.

Just awhile ago at work during my WOD, as in I had experienced the "panuhot" syndrome. In the wee hours of dawn, the temperature just went North pole like. Ayayay, mega say agad-agad to Super Visor, that I have to go home the soonest.

Standing My Ground



By Jojette Asumbrado Ramos

Why do I feel this way? It seemed I had lost something valuable but I know I had to give it up, because if not it will bound to hurt me fully. Ever since I am small, I knew I will survive in any circumstances. An inherent character which is embedded in me. I had to be tough in my life. I had chosen badly at times, but deep inside I know I could overcome all the trials.

In my life, I had experienced so much rejections from my love ones, the reason I am able to harden my heart as well. I questioned at times, why is that the people that hurt us more are the ones we expect to nurture us. I wish I had relatives who really could stand beside me, but all I had seen is that they prefer to make your life a bit not easy. 

One thing about me, I will never bow to anyone. If that is what other people expect from me, then they are wasting their time.
