ingenieur life

lately i've been quite stressed out with my life.

i haven't been eating nor sleeping right.
after work, i think about work, when i sleep, i worry about work, when i wake up the next day, i'm afraid to go to work.
all this constant thinking and worrying is because of my projects which i'm leading and i as the youngest engineer to do so, i lack knowledge, experience and sadly respect.

i've been running around the factory, trying to get things done, driving around to places to find parts which are always 'urgent' and at the same time, making sure that everything in the office is under control. nak buat process engineering and being a project leader at the same time is not as easy as i thought..

and to top things up, recently i just learnt something about myself that i'm not proud of.
and i have to thank my cousin for that. =)
we're so aware about the faults of people around us (whether we know them personally or not) but honestly, how aware are we about our own faults?
change is good but never is easy, especially if the change is for the better.

but now my head hurts just thinking about the many changes i have to apply on myself and of course, managing work.

i know i should just chill. but i can't.
i have a dateline to complete my projects, have the technicians to at least respect me enough to listen to me, to come up with a system to make work more manageable, and change.
it's not that i'm unhappy, i'm completely happy! but i'm just wound up with work.

hope it'll be ok soon, once i habiskan projects 5 ketul ni, i nak chill lama-lama and i hope the next time i'm going to lead a project, i'll gain these people's respect. pastu i nak muhasabah diri.
haha!

a wise person once said to me,
'the test gets harder when the reward is better'.
hopefully this is my test, and hopefully i can overcome this phase in my life.
insyallah =)

kepada adik2 saya,
jangan la nak rush rush nak bekerja. earning your own money sounds cool and stuff, but remember, you have to work for it. sabar k? =)

k la. lunch hour dah habis. time to sambung kerja.
assalamualaikum =)

being the youngest to lead a project gives u advantage of not getting high expectation from the superiors, so that u can exceed their expectations :D

Cik Amni said...

=) kerja apa pun ada tekanannya... dan biasa jugak kalau ada yang tak sampai tidur malam fikirkan kerja, sampai kurus kering... hiks.. =)

dan betul.. jangan la rushing sangat nak kerja.. enjoy hidup free lepas belajar kejap.. lepas tu sure takkan ada masa senggang nak rehat melainkan kita la yang pandai-pandai curi masa... huhuh..


p/s: nyesal dulu lepas belajar terus nak kerja. skang sangat-sangat letih. nak cuti pun fikir kerja. acane?

story4dee said...

semangkaaaaa!!!! ;)

charminghall said...

U don’t have to gain the respect while they actually dont think u deserve it. so let those disregards be.
just do your work, with smile, doa (semoga Allah lekas pandu u to escape to the right way) and do organize your work just according to your superior. every little bit. it definitely takes time for recognition, but when one approve that u will appreciate it more than the respect. chill (and smile of course!) :)

izatul hafinaz said...

Hell yes...im experiencing the same situation now and even it effect my health..sometimes we do really need a motivation and strong faith..merangkak mmg susah, ditambah dengan ppl's respect tp bila di atas, rasa manisnyer:)

afie afiqah said...

alamak rasa takut plak nak jadi engineer nanti -.-'

nayzaharyfaz said...

Same case here! tonnes of workload, major pressure when I need to workout 3 projects with 3 different bosses, different style of work at one time with 1 big project ahead. and I'm new.

Engineer may be a tough one, but I think I get used to it now, and somehow I like it. Hope you will overcome it and aye, CHILL ;)

melor md hodari said...

dear Maria,

i'm quite silent reader of your blog..i'm engineer of oil n gas company..everything will be fine dear, as long as u done your job well, and tak susahkan org lain..what i'm applied in my work ethic is, "mudahkan kerja orang lain, so that kerja u pun akan dipermudahkan"..good luck dear..

Maria Elena Zarul said...

wahh! alhamdulillah thank you all for your support and advices!!
insyallah things will be fine.
am trying my best but like izatul cakap, susah dulu nanti bila kat atas mesti manis. hehee!
