My Mentor Had a good talk with my mentor this afternoon while waiting for our client during a business visit. He will be leaving the company this coming Monday to work in a managerial position somewhere else. All these while I've been saying that I will feel the effect of depression and loss after going through life without him around the office. Afterall, he is a pretty loud and bubbly character in the workplace. I believe the difference in atmosphere will be obvious. But I am telling myself to NOT hedge my emotions against my mentor's absence. Afterall, he did reassure that he will avail himself even after leaving, should I have any questions to ask. But most importantly, I cannot afford to allow my emotions to affect my work performance. If I do, I will not do well in my job. And most most most importantly, I must learn to grow up and grow increasingly independent, to be on my own. It's about time, since I've been in there for 3 whole months now. I thank God for His favor....have been given clients to handle. In everything, I thank Him because I know I will grow up and face my challenges through such situations. And even without my mentor Steven around, I thank God for other colleagues that I have, who will be there to comfort, counsel and guide me along. :) Indeed, the turnover rate in my company is high. But even then, friendships can still be forged. I'm glad to have really great and fun people to work with. They make going to work a joy. Like what my mentor says, my company is like a "playground" = Comfort zone. All in all, I stand amazed as I see my own life unfold. God is indeed good.
