Quick one

The big boss's secretary is an ally. She is a pretty nice lady and...very smart, as in street-smart. She knows how to protect herself because she can "detect" changes in her boss's mood now, having worked under her for the past 7 years. According to her, she is the longest-staying secretary the big boss ever had (and I totally believe her). My big boss is...I can't describe her. You can say she is difficult, unpredictable, and possibly also unreasonable but I know that she is very good at what she does. The colleague who sat beside me (it's in past tense because today is her last day) told me that she decided to come here because according to her previous boss, my current big boss is "the best in compliance". I believe that as well. My big boss is competent in her work but I can't say the same for her leadership. The atmosphere in office is always so tense. It is not because of the work. The work in itself is completely okay; it is the boss who makes everything unbearable. According to someone in office, my boss is an "awful person". Haha. I don't know about that. I haven't even interacted with her much and honestly, I'm not keen to interact with her either. She doesn't even acknowledge my presence...but then, I'm not bothered by that.

According to my sources, there have been employees under her who boo-booed and left. I asked "How did they go? Were they fired or what?" My big boss apparently made it IMPOSSIBLE for them to continue staying. That's how they left. This source warned me to ask if I am unsure because I wouldn't want to make silly mistakes and leave a bad impression on the big boss. Gee. I can't describe this workplace. It is a little tad depressing at the moment. My boss, direct one, took MC today and will be on MC the rest of this week. It's shitty bad 'cos now there are only 2 of us within the team. If there are problems, I also don't know what to do. It's crappy. I had to determine an entire team's required CMFAS modules today and I'm still not familiar with CMFAS. Okay, I know 1A and 1B is the module of Dealing with Securities. 2 and 7 are on Future Contracts. 4 is on Advising on Corporate Finance. 5 is on financial advisory. Sheeze, I can actually memorise already. Not bad! Haha. I hope nothing bad happens- that I didn't screw anything up. I asked questions...and tried my best in everything already but my boss is not around, I'm really on my own. Sucks.

Nvm, this is good learning ground for me. It's true. I'm working under the best ok. Still, it is important to pray psalm 91 everyday for protection! It's so scary, my workplace!!!

Psalm 91
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. ^a]">[a]

² I will say ^b]">[b] of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."

³ Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.

⁴ He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

⁵ You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,

⁶ nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.

⁷ A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.

⁸ You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

⁹ If you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the LORD, who is my refuge-

¹⁰ then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.

¹¹ For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;

¹² they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

¹³ You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

¹⁴ "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

¹⁵ He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.

¹⁶ With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."
