Welcome to Araneta Center!
hubby has been welcomed to the pool of artists of The Araneta beginning June 01, 2007. :)
it has been a battle of more than a month, i think. and we though that it was over when we declined the offer weeks ago, because Araneta was bargaining for a lower offer. and so we didn't give in!
after a week, they called again and said that they were increasing the offer. hubby was so happy because he really wanted the job and badly wanted to leave his old company, talk about a f*ck^#& boss! :(
and so, fortunately, he's now holding office in Cubao, QC, only 30 mins away from our house (or 15 mins by MRT!), waaah, kainggit!

there are advantages & disadvantages though on his new job. the advantages are:
+ it's Araneta, a "real" and secured company.
+ as i've said, very near our house. not to mention, very, very near Gateway Mall!
+ there's an increase upon regularization, and every year thereafter (based on performance).
+ there's 15 days VL and 15 days SL, hay salamat! :)
+ there are benefits, healthcare and insurance.
+ there's a regular BONUS!!! based on performance though. pero i guess wala pa din tatalo sa bonuses namin, hehe. (as of last year yun ha, ewan ko lang ngayon!)
+ they are required to be in business attire, hahaha! if you know my hubby, he's the type na t-shirt/jeans lang. kasi nga daw artist sya, so di naman kailangang pumormal! he was like that since i've known him, and i've loved him as he is. so kahit na gusto kong pumormal sya minsan, i can do nothing. kasi di ba nga, you don't change your husband! kaya laking tuwa ko nang malaman kong pormalan sa Araneta, haha. so yun, we started shopping for polo, slacks, socks & leather shoes, hehe. goodbye sa mga shirts at Nike rubber shoes nya, gusto ko na ngang ibenta eh. haha. and take note, last week, we even bought full gear, with matching long sleeves, necktie and sleeveless cardigan ("vest", para matago daw ang necktie, hehe). pinakilala kasi sya sa mga Araneta, kaya kailangan daw super formal. gusto ko nga syang picturan eh, kaya lang ayaw nya, hehe.
i was also surprised finding myself looking for short sleeves & long sleeves polo as gift to him on our anniversary. dati kasi lagi akong sa Nike naghahanap ng shirts and shoes eh, pero now, iba na. kaya nga inabot ako ng more than an hour sa paghahanap eh. may Return (& Exchange) pa yun the following day ha, mwehehe.
+ FREE tickets on Araneta shows, sana lang may magandang concerts soon!
as of now, yan pa lang ang naisip ko...

pero syempre, on the other note, may negative din!
- since Operation daw sila, they have whole day work on Saturdays! WHAAAT! although kino-contest na ito ng boss nila, so hope it would be resolved soon. dahil sa malamang, dito mauubos ang 30 leaves nya noh.
kaya lately, solo flight ako sa mga saturday parties ko, puro mga assistants ko lang kasama ko, huhu.
i'm actually very much affected on this. at ito ang pinaka-pinag-isipan kong factor if talagang he'll accept the offer or not. kasi naman, we've always considered weekends as our bonding time. and yun nga, malaking factor din sya sa parties ko, sya ang aking moral support lalo na kapag tensed na ako, hehe.
- at dahil Operations nga daw, may kailangang pumasok on Sundays & Holidays!!! buti na lang yung isang tao nya ang assigned kapag Sundays. pero on Holidays, swertihan pa sila. at dahil bago sya, minalas syang na-assign nung Monday, 06/11, hehe.
- medyo madaming work, kaya hindi rin sya nakakauwi ng 6:01.
- malayo na sya sa mga contact nyang suppliers namin sa party. so panibagong suppliers na naman for some.
- at dahil strict dun, di na (pa) nya magawa ang mga nagagawa nya dati, tulad ng pag-print ng kung ano-ano para sa party namin, nyahaha.
wala na akong maisip, yan palang ang effect sa akin as of now.

pero thankful pa din ako kasi alam kong happy na sya sa new job nya. at alam kong mas may future sya dito. kahit na nabawasan na ang aming bonding time, atleast at the end of the day, magkasama pa din kami. ayoko lang kasi talaga yung umalis sya at mag-work sa ibang bansa eh. parang di ko kaya na maghiwalay kaming family. yun nga lang 1 day Saturday na nabawas sa kin eh super affected na ako noh, yun pa kayang 1 month or 1 year! hay! :(

that's it, thank you Lord for ALL the blessings! :)

    Hi Abie,

    goodluck sa paghanap ng bagong work ni Howell, hehe.
    and you're right, ang hirap na mahiwalay talaga sa family.
    my lil' boy is not fond of mascots eh, takot sya actually. kaya feeling ko baka sayang lang. di pa sya nasanay sa negosyo naming mga mascots, hehe.


    Hi Apols,

    aliw noh, bagay sa atin. hehe.
    goodluck din sa hubby mo.
