I had a long day today. I had to rush one account so I talked to several people from different departments. So glad it was a success. In the afternoon HR talked to me. It is final, I with our Sales Head are being transferred to another affiliate. A new assignment after one year of joining the company. The thing is we need to file a resignation and the other company will simultaneously hire us. Another challenge that we are taking. And prior to going home to my rented place, I went to Jollibee to have dinner. Guess who I had it with. Kate Spade, in the picture.

Wow, it seems you have lots of Kate Spade bags . So much money to spend on branded bags ha ? ANyway , how long have you been working in that affiliate ? Why do they have to transfer you and your head to another affiliate . But i suppose , you tenure is counted as for one company ?

Hi there! I had dinner at Jollibee too last night. I was not with Kate Spade lol! Oh by the way, I have been thinking of getting one. I am just wondering if it is worth the price. Lately, I have been trying to be a wise spender.

@nottoooldtowrite :) thanks for the reply :) There are many sellers of Kate Spade online. I don't know how to spot a knock off from the real ones. Do you think it is wise to buy online ?

@Iam_jauntyjen I really am not an online buyer but check.if you can trust the seller. You have to be sure that you are getting your money's worth.. got to be original.

must be a tough job. reminds me one time when the company was downsizing and I had my co-workers referred to some one i know in the call center business. as crazy as it is, they all got the job, except me who wasn't really good. but Im happy for them. sad you're being transferred to another affiliate.

Thank you for asking. It was a difficult decision to accept it as most of my colleagues now were also my officemates in my previous work. And I m not really the type who job hops. In my first job, I was there for over 11 years. But looking at the bigger picture, I can see that this move will benefit me and the company. So it is okay, I accepted i snd the transfer will be this March. Another challenge to take. Aja!

wow. congratulations to you though I am not sure if this transfer will be a promotion on your part or the same position. But I just wonder why the transfer? What will happen to the position you and your boss will vacate?

There will still be a Sales Team in the company we are leaving behind. Why the transfer? They need us to give the other company a push. Hope things will go well.
