It’s October 7. And as I started my workday this morning, I realized I have reached a milestone --- I’ve been working at ISCI for ten years! My first day here was on October 5, 2009, and here I am still, a decade after.💖
I was only 24 then, young, NOT wild, and free. 😊 I chanced upon the job opportunity online, and I thought I could give it a try since I wanted a faster paced working environment at that time. I was hired, and the rest is history. Now I’m 34. This company has seen me growing up and getting old. This was where I got engaged, tied the knot, became a mommy for the first time, then a second time.❤️ I actually didn’t plan on staying this long, but I have stayed this long. As I am typing right now, I am asking myself why. Bakit nga ba? I don’t know what my reason is, but all I can say is I am happy, and I feel blessed being here. I am around people I love working with, and I am being mentored by the best bosses one could have. My work still excites me, and I still get fulfillment from the little successes that happen daily. Best of all, I get to live the life I love. That is, I am able to spend early mornings and early evenings with my family, my hubby and two little kids, without the baggage of work stresses on my back. Siguro yun talaga ang reason. Yes, maybe that’s it! 💡

I admit, there are days when I’d also wonder, what would life be like if I moved? I’ve been hearing stories that the pasture is greener and thicker in other places. True, true. But I also read somewhere that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. The grass is greener where you water it. And I water mine every day.🌱 While I am here, I am keeping my watering can close.
Happy ISCI anniversary to me! 🎂
