I'd like to believe I'm an absorbent cotton. I'd rather read and ingest all the ideas the author is trying to message whether indirectly or not; than sharing what I've gathered. Hmm. No, I don't think so... Really! I'm quite the opposite.
Sometimes when I get excited, I tell the next person what it is about or how I think about it. Ha ha! I can get annoying like that, but my friends tell me I'm just being adorable. But mind you, these friends love me too much to care my idiosyncrasies.
Enough of that. Let me get to my point now. One of the blogger/author that I have kept in my reading list is and has been Jessica Zafra. The latest post that I've read from her blog just hit close to home. Why? Allow me to list them. But before you go any further, please read up on the post so you and I will be on the same page. Don't worry, I will wait for you here... Go!!!

So, I assume you HAVE already read the post, right? Here you go...
BPO industry. This has been my home for 6 years now; and I'm happy. We all know it gives good pay and a lot of room for growth faster than other companies, mainly because they focus more on the performance and not just tenure. So young people can get promoted and reach the same rung in the ladder that other people of age may have worked for, for so long. For me, it's not actual promotion but the opportunities I am given to develop the skills that I need for my job is way better.
This kind of work demands flexibility. You have to be flexible enough to work during the nights but sometimes you can be called to report during the days. I am a big fan of working at night. I'm not necessarily nocturnal. I just hate the traffic and heat in the morning.
I have always admired people who value the same principle as I do. Which is basically, "Mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." In one word - indifference. This really does get to the other person - the hater. It is the best revenge, after all.
My final message is this: Be happy. If you already are, don't stick with people who pull you down. If they are getting to you; then say your piece. Don't be afraid to speak your mind. They may act superior than you, but really, it just came from a source of inferiority within them. They may just be plain jealous of you.
