Happy work anniversary to myself! I have turned 1, together with Assurity Trusted Solutions Pte Ltd. I picked some photos because we had too many photos and some are too classic not to re-share. I'm very grateful for the amazing opportunity and experience. Many thanks to Wilem Tan for sliding the LinkedIn message at the point in time when there was an opportunity. My personal takeaway: 1. I felt that I have grown quite a bit, I used to be hiring teachers and teaching intern and knew nothing about tech, to now I can understand tech a bit more and also seeing the team's requirement and striking the balance. 2. I have learnt about implementing and thinking of SOPs, which includes writing and maintaining it! We all knew the importance but how many had that opportunity to do from start to WIP? 3. I get to professional events with the real tech people. There was an event which was organized by JobStreet and it was a good exposure in terms of promoting my company, and understanding the talents out there. 4. Get a chance to continue my "passion for designing". As clinche as it sounded, I never knew that I could continue to do my designing work like EDM broadcast or welcome banner in my current work stint, at the same time trying be eco-friendly. 5. Happy to see my hires. Being me very driven by energy, it's always heartening to see my hires join and I get to meet them on first day! I was once a new hire and I know how it felt on the first day (with many anxiety attacks). And they still talk to me after their first day (it's comforting) 6. My tech colleagues don't mind me being not technical - I'm serious when I said this. I'm so afraid that I'm being judged for not knowing, but they are so willing to share and also don't mind repeating or even breaking it down to layman terms to me. 7. Syncing up, it's always a WIP but glad everyone is so willing to do so. 8. I do get feedback on things to improve on, which is a good thing because it means someone sees the potential in me. 9. Surprised birthday celebration! I didn't tell anyone my birthday, but yeah I had a birthday cake and everyone in the office ATE with me. That's very heartwarming. We do have ups and downs, disagreements and all. Yet we can work it through thick and thin, to work towards a goal. #PeopleofAssurity #workanniversary
