I choose my own Pie

Recently I got rather stressed over my work as I am now part of a team to handle a very big project. This project needs a lot of coordinations and handshakes between parties from different countries. On top of my other more 'routined' work, I wonder if i will have the energy and time to handle this 'ECA'.

But I found out something that kinda motivated me today. If my dept were to take up this project, we will be awarded extra wages to the concerned staff (which is me!!!), or either that, the HQ will add in a head count to manage the newly launched system (the project i am working on now). Upon hearing that, i feel much better.

At least in MNC, the work distribution is more reasonable, unlike my previous company, the staffs are only squeezed and pressed hard to take up more roles and responsibilities, while the benefits they receive are getting less and less each year.

I am now into my 2nd job, and i get to realise there are indeed a great variety of pies out there, with different sizes and tastes. But nobody can actually judge which is the 'best' pie among all. Afterall, diff ppl have diff tastes and appetite. But sad to say, ppl nowadays (sometimes myself) have this mentality that the biggest and most expensive pie is the best - wait till we choke ourselves to death.
