I feel you.
My job is somewhat like you...Hi Jes,<br /><br />I feel you. <br /><br />My job is somewhat like your previous, travelling so much that I am a platinum member of some hotel chains, and Krisflyer Gold (just by flying around Asia economy). My company claim that this is perks for staff, as we get to use the miles, and points for our personal use. So what?<br /> <br />I had my first kid (about same year as you) and am expecting #2. One day after 2 weeks of travel, my kid refused to talk to me. Sets me wondering, is it worth it? It's not the company's business to care. I am paid for it. But it's my business to care.<br /><br />I admire your courage to take the step in something you believe in. It's never easy starting your new business and all the best in Snackfirst and your entrepreneurship journey. <br /><br />Cheers.<br /><br />Rena<br /> Renahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14668091092457737114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287796122698034243.post-69291153896886124182017-11-29T00:38:40.429+08:002017-11-29T00:38:40.429+08:00Hi Mr CEO,

Nobody cared how much you worked and only you yourself will know that one fine day, the companies will axe you mercilessly. Nobody is indispensable and not everyone likes to hear the truth of it.Jeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12519573577327538496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287796122698034243.post-76096429260497593522017-11-15T21:02:40.545+08:002017-11-15T21:02:40.545+08:00Hi Rena, you got a point there. I just quoted one ...Hi Rena, you got a point there. I just quoted one of "employee definitions" I found on the Internet. Actually everyone besides the owner of the business would be an employee. Even the CEO is just a highly paid employee (with a capital 'C' in front of her 'E').

Your comments succinctly says what I'm writing in this entire article. <br /><br />Just curious though, why would an employee be someone below executive level though? Those being in executive level and above, make one less an employee?Renahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14668091092457737114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287796122698034243.post-63137431244408118972017-11-10T07:27:32.778+08:002017-11-10T07:27:32.778+08:00I guess not everyone is like you (yet). Not everyo...I guess not everyone is like you (yet). Not everyone has achieved the required mindset change from seeing us as an employee to viewing us as being the CEO of our ME Pte Ltd.<br /><br />The definition of an employee: A person who exchanges time for money in a position below the executive level. Exchanging time for money. That's just a transaction.<br /><br />So, we are the CEO of our ME Pte Ltd. What does that make our boss? <br /><br />Our customer of course.<br /><br />That concept is not an option, it’s mandatory. It’s not just an idea where you have a choice. It’s a fact like the sunshine, the rain or the weather.<br />The sooner we accept this concept, the sooner we move to the front in the information age.<br />Tacomobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00984034091151711523noreply@blogger.com
