zee saving grace

What I once thought was the saving grace of my career turned out to be a disappointment. Well, I have to admit the first 2 months were kinda boring, but I got over it since I was studying for my exams. The following 2 months were full steam ahead, since my boss sorta heeded aunty Ch*'s advise and "stretched" my potential - which, truth be told, I was barely 80% stretched. As for the last 2 months...it's better left to boredom.

For someone who used to put in ten dollar's worth for each dollar paid, I really am not used to this kinda relaxed lifestyle. I loathe it when I'm not able to contribute, and worse, when the job is not able to contribute to my career plan. To be fair, I'm experiencing a different aspect of my expertise, something which one day I will have to handle, esp when I have reached a certain position. But...I don't think I'm suitable for this, esp when I do not possess enough clout - yet.

I always believed that one needs to show his worth to earn his respect. The mid 2 months were great, coz I managed to pop everyone's eyes with what I had. Now, I find it difficult to live up to my legend - simply just coz I'm not given an opportunity to do so.

I feel so under-utilised.

Now...should I enroll myself into "overworked anonymous"? :(
