parting the comfort zone


have you ever gone out of your comfort zone?  four years back, my father passed away and i've got no choice but to accept and embrace that sad reality.  he was my everything; he was there for me day in, day out; no one ever understood me the way he did; he knows me inside-out, but what i am to do, that's it for me and him.  disengaging myself from the arms of my father is the worst thing i've ever encountered in this life time, and from that moment on, i TRIED so hard to pave my way to my mother's heart ... to date, still no luck.

tomorrow will a remarkable day in the office, the politician boss is planning to transfer me from the field of environment to the field of law ...... am i ready for this, will i be able to perform the new duties and responsibilities that'll be expected from me?  will this be an additional work load or a totally new one? PLUS, the rate that i am currently receiving is not enough to perform the job, it requires more time in the office and it's more mentally challenging, if that will be the case, i would demand to receive an additional pay.  it would be unfair on my part if i get detailed as a legislative officer who is expected to report every single day in the office and prepare all communications, man the office, draft and/or explain legislative papers, et al .... uh oh, oxee glika, oxee!

after the meeting tomorrow morning, i think ill be heading the main ofc in order to lobby things with the politician boss, if i am not happy with the things, then it's time to talk to the lady politician boss and tell her everything, if she decides to take me and keep me in the district, then it's good .... i am definitely fine with that.  BUT if both politician bosses decides to make me the legislative officer without additional play, then i have no choice but to move out. it may not be a happy decision to leave but if it will put me to a disadvantage, then i have to do it in order to live my life and conquer my dream of becoming a lawyer.  

by then, i have to look for a new boss though i already have someone in mind, i still haven't spoken a word with him, im crossing my fingers that he would be kind enough to welcome me to his office.  and if he did, another parting from a comfort zone, this time from a politician friend who happens to be the number 1 rival of the politician whom i have in mind.

oh well, no parting will happen if only i get support from my mother ............... :(
