Right, so I missed TWO days now. =[ Missed Thursday as I was out drinking till 3am. No reason for Friday tho. *slaps self* but well, I wanted to do a proper post as I have lots to reflect upon on this topic, so here goes:

I've had quite a number of experiences in different industries with various roles. I've done writing, marketing, events, production, and customer service. But they were all relatively short stints - my longest was as a writer/journalist with Youth.SG for 9-months, before I left to pursue my degree. I absolutely loved it there-I was doing what I love, in a very enjoyable environment, and with encouraging guidance from both colleagues and my boss/supervisor. It was probably my best work experience so far and I missed working there so much. Unfortunately, they couldn't hire full-time writers, otherwise it would have been such a pleasure to go back.

As for the worst work experience.. I'd say there isn't one that particularly stands out as being the worst, but I've had a handful of.. awful experiences. In all my jobs, I've encountered: 

- Downright lazy bosses/supervisor

- Colleagues/teammates who boot-licks boss, 'shows different faces' when with different people, unreasonably picks fights with me just because I seem easy to bully, and plays politics

- Colleagues/teammates who thinks highly of him/herself but actually, they suck-workwise.

  >Colleagues/teammates who doesn't work in a team, doesn't take suggestions, doesn't listen to advice.

Having worked at quite a number of places, I pretty much had my fair share of good and bad experiences. And I pretty much know what I can/cannot do-in terms of work.

I really like writing, but I don't want to work for newspapers-heard lots of 'horror' stories from people who worked there. It would be a dream to be able to do something like getting paid to travel and write about the beautiful places around the world. But, even though I love to write, I know my writing isn't fantastic. So, for now, it will remain a dream. I'll just blog ;P

Besides writing, I do enjoy doing some other stuff like events. Therefore, marketing is a rather interesting role for me, as I get to do writing, social media, and events too. And while it's mostly office-based, I get to go out-of-office sometimes too, which is what I'd like. 

Ideally, (as I'm not really enjoying what I do right now) I can write in my next job, and be able to grow as a writer and also contribute significantly to the company. 

Or, likewise, as a marketing or events person, to be able to grow and contribute significantly.

Lastly and most importantly, I'd also enjoy what I do.
