Its 2022 already. I don’t have any resolution this year (and don’t bother to have one anyway), and nothing have changed this year (have been living in Jakarta for a year now, and COVID still here. Well, actually I got a new job this year (and also in a new role, unlike in my previous experiences so far), but its more like an experimental thing for me since life is pretty boring lately (yeah, I tend to do some crazy social experiment or random things when I’m bored and have plenty of time) so lets not get into details until I finish my probation period and I decide to continue on this path.
Its my 2nd week now and I still don’t do any actual work. Spend my first week doing initial setup on my new company laptop (there are 3 laptops in my desk now so it feels like a service center workshop table) and attend some basic company related training (core values, how to submit timesheet, how to apply leave, and other related shit like that). From the participant list, I can see there are 10 people in my batch but since its an online self learning session, there are no interaction among us.
Now on the second week, guess what? more trainings to do. Well, its quite fun and doesn’t feel like training at all. Just answer some question like typical “What Hogward faction are you?” quiz game in facebook where you get your result based on your answer from the survey.
In the training today, I took the “Unleash your infinite potential” test. The name sounds cool and implying some vigorous training where I unleash my Nen, awaken my dormant Stand, and become super saiyan to fight evil in this world (if you don’t understand this references, just ignore it). But the actual result is meh.
Turns out, I am a good strategist but a very bad at influencing and build relationship (score 1 out of 9 categories lol). Well, its nothing new for me. Not sure if this information can help me unleash my infinite potential, just let HR collect this info and do what they want with this. Maybe they want me to formulate a strategy and find other people who good at build relationship and influencing to gather people to be used as sacrificial pawn to succeed my strategy?
Well, basically in the end. their recommended action items for me is :
- think deeply and more often : basically they told me to overthinking?
- take time to write : so this is it, since they don’t mention what to write
- try to get one on one with people : not sure bout this, they want me to join fight club and dueling someone there or what?
Anyway, with this writing, at least I already fulfilled one of the action item, isn’t it?
mission accomplished, over and out 🙂
