From my previous post, Frustration of Happenings, you would have known I left my previous company , a tobacco manufacturer. Resigning is not a bad word or thing. Although your ex-bosses will make it seem as though it’s a cardinal sin, its actually not.
I won’t say there was huge celebration when I left. I guess in many ways, its good that I have left. I opened up opportunity to other to sit at my high level job, the company is determined to grow faster without my pessimism, my (ex) colleagues (those who are frustrated with me) can progress better through their inefficiencies and in-competencies, my dog is happier cause I go home earlier to play with her. My banker is happier cause I have more deposits, I contributed to the economy by buying another made-in-malaysia car. I get to learn more work experience and contribute more to society.
Don’t get me wrong, I left the company in good terms. It was a jubilant leaving. I am glad (as I discovered) that I have touched many people’s heart during my 5 ½ years there. I have learned much from the company too. My ex-company gave me many opportunities to grow. But like I told my Sales Director, I left not because of the company, I left because I have lost faith in the organization. Its hard to continue without faith, its like life without religion.
Coca Cola ex-CEO, Dauglas Ivester, left the company with a farewell package of USD 17.8 mil , I left with a cake on my last day, and thousand of memories. But memories will be testament to how , if one is hardworking, the future will be a great beginning for more memories.

very interesting post you have here... i like the part - u left the company because u lost faith in the organisation - how many of us would have think of this good excuse ;P
I did :)
I believe that in work, its like a relationship. Its never one sided. So when you lose your 'feelings' for another party, you basically lose faith, and most often then never, you part ways
I'm sure that you will be missed and your leaving is a lost to the company. Nevertheless, hope that the new company will be better than the previous one.
Lil, I miss my ex company also, but not entirely. I miss my colleagues and also my daily nescafe ais from the pantry :)
i miss the latte ever since i moved to the factory! kah kah kah....
i sure would like to see that dir face when you said that!
Nescafe or latte, nothing beats a fridge full of milk. Minumlah Susu, Susu baik untuk kesihatan. Warga Sihat, Negara Maju
