writer !!

here in the company where I work, there are three magazines: DestinAsian (travel magz), Prestige (lifestyle magz), DA/MAN (men's magz) and one publishing named SCOPE, which at this moment has three clients (means: three coorporate magz published). U know how many writers here ? three!! yes dear for all the magazines (included the coorporate magz), wtf!!! with four editors; DA, Prestige,DA/MAN and SCOPE.

so... be in my shoes for once ! I write for PRESTIGE and DA/MAN at this moment.. Pretige once had another writer, who apparently resigned after three months (hey Sherly, how dare u to leave me here all alone !!! =)) and it was okay... well I managed quite well =) since my editor does some writings as well so... it was ok!

BUT, it won't be fine n fun anymore if I have to cope all alone here... imagine one magazine with one writer ???? I'm dead !!! and still I have to write for DA/MAN !!! (hmmm that's why we paid better than any other magz company... with all of these workloads ??? ohhh it's not even comparable dear)

It is strange u know how difficult to find a new writer for this company, too demanding... bloody hell ! I just talked with one of the eds and he said it's not easy to find a good english writer in Indo... that's why we interviewed many candidates none of them who meet the requirements!!! Can u believe this ???? and if we can't find any by early next month we are going to find people at Singapore.... Ohhh c'mon... there must be someone here... "It's only few English magz here in Indo, and among those few, none of them covered with good English," said the Ed. Is he trying to say that we are the best English magz here ?????????? really ??????????????

and it keeps me wondering.. so what was on their mind when they decided to hire me ???? it makes me nauseous somehow u know... because they put too high expectation on me... =(

u know what... I don't care... I just need another writer whom I can share the assignments here darling... Indonesian, Singaporean, Indian.... I don't give a shit !!! as long as i could breath... well thinking about the wage' raise anyway =) hmmm...

so, I think it is an easy way to explain why I have a long working hours... but one thing for sure Thanks God, I love to write... that's all!
