Numerology

Interesting things from astrology.com. They emailed me to try out their numerology portrait and this is what came out.

Introduction

The ancient science of numerology offers insight into the personality by assigning numeric values to names and birth dates, calculating numerological values and then interpreting the results.

To calculate the values used in numerology, all digits of a number are first added together. If the outcome is a number with more than one digit, the resulting digits are added together again until they are reduced to a single digit. For example, the number 27 is reduced by adding 2 + 7 to get 9. The number 1974 is reduced by adding 1 + 9 + 7 + 4 to get 21; then 21 is further reduced by adding 2 + 1 to get 3. All numbers are reduced to single digits between 1 and 9 except the special master number 11, which is not reduced in numerological calculations.

Letters are first converted into numbers, which are then added together until they become a single digit. The letter A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, etc.; M = 13, which becomes 1 + 3 = 4. For example, the name Amy is equal to 1 + 4 + 7 = 12. 12 is then further reduced by adding 1 + 2 to get 3.

Your Numerology Portrait applies the results of several calculations to provide insight into the most important aspects of your personality.

Your soul number reveals your inner, private self, the underlying motivations that influence your decisions and actions, your subconscious desires and your most deeply ingrained attitudes. (It is determined by adding the values for the vowels in your full birth name.)

Your Numerology Portrait is based on the following calculations:

Total for each letter:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A=0 B=0 C=0 D=0 E=2 F=2 G=1 H=0 I=1
J=1 K=0 L=0 M=0 N=0 O=1 P=0 Q=0 R=1
S=0 T=1 U=1 V=0 W=0 X=0 Y=1 Z=0

Consonant Total: 11 (38)
Vowel Total: 1 (28)
Grand Total: 3 (66)
Date Total: 8 (17)
Missing Number(s) are: 4 8
First letter is J
First vowel is E


Your Soul Number is ONE.

You are a strong, self-reliant individual who is willing to stand apart from the crowd and act according to your own beliefs and convictions. You have a deep inner sense of authority and of your own power, and you prefer to either work alone or to be in charge, directing and leading others. You have a dominant nature and greatly influence others, even without trying to. Self-sufficient and independent, you are not easily swayed from the path you set for yourself. However, you tend to be proud and unwilling to ask for help when you need it. You also become so involved with carrying out your own will and desires that you neglect to consider others' needs.

You inability to cooperate and compromise, and your tendency to be subtly domineering may cause trouble in close relationships. Also, you have trouble accepting any authority and can be rebellious when challenged. Your gifts are originality of thought, the courage to be different and take risks, and a deep core of inner strength.

I am sure that not all of the traits there are in me. Specially the trait of not seeking other's advise. hehe. I usually seek others' advise when deciding something big.

New boss, new work, etc....

When my boss came back from Japan last February, the driver told me his expression when he came back it was not good. From that time, we already suspected that he will be replaced and transferred to another place. My boss dropped the bomb last May 19 when we had our summer outing in Subic beach. I didn’t felt swimming on that day and was also thinking that I would be going on another summer outing on May 20 with my ragnarok/warzone friends. Anyway, my boss after a few drinks dropped the bomb that on June he will be replaced by my current boss. He is around 10 years much younger than he is.

Days went by and our new boss arrived. Our first impression was that he will be very strict. My first boss was already laughing but the new one just kept silent. My old boss ask me to setup his new laptop and during that time my new boss somewhat opened up already. Currently he is already smiling and laughing a little.

Last night Joy’s dad threw a farewell dinner for my old boss and new one. The new one seems to be a little more comfortable already and was smiling and laughing already with Joy’s dad and uncles.

Many things might be changed when he formally takes over. My old boss said that the pipe rack business most probably will not be continued for fear of dead stocks just like in our Taiwan office. My old boss will be leaving on Monday already and I wish him luck in his new assignment.

Last Tuesday, I tried applying in Canon. Finished the test and I just need to inform them when I am available for interview. I don’t know when I will still be available and what I can tell my new boss the reason that I can not come to office. I still do not have the privilege of having leaves since I’m only with the company less than a year.

Right now I’m still undecided if I’m still leaving my current company. I’m just thinking that I can get revenge to what Madam did to me and help my new boss get settled down first if I stay.

Korea and Back

It has been months since I last posted on my blog. Been busy for a while. We had a new business with First Sumiden Circuits Inc. located in LISP 1 in Cabuyao, Laguna. We sold around 165 production tables there and also accompanying stainless steel sheets as the table top. Madam is the one who was contacted by this client so she made the sale. Unfortunately for me, I am the one who did most of the dirty job. We started assembly of the tables (the driver, Madam, me and my boss) and hired a few laborers to finish most of the jobs. I was the one who supervised the laborers while she was in the office sitting pretty. The driver and I were the ones who installed the big stainless steel sheet while she installed the small ones. The saddest part for me is that I was the only one who went there to finish the remaining tables that were not yet installed with SS sheet and also was the one who pulled out our materials.

A week after holy week, I went to Korea with Madam and Joy’s brother David. We were sent there to learn more about assembly of the pipe racks. I admit that I was a bit lazy during the last day of the training but it was because the job was boring already. Most of the training in the factory was done by me and David but Madam just stayed in the office during the 2^nd and 3^rd day of our training there. The first day she joined in the assembly work but was in the office during the later part of the day. She said that she was attending to her client’s needs. What? Weren’t we sent to Korea to train on how to assemble the pipe racks not to hang around the office and do some typing job? I think that it is ok for her to do those things but not for 1 whole day.

Climate there is still very cold even though it was already spring there specially when the wind blows. The food is spicy but I can take the spicyness of the food. There are not much place there where you can buy cheap items.

Currently, Madam made me call out new clients which I do not want to do but was forced to. I just do not want to do those things because she wanted me to do it. Hehe. I just emailed our company profile and proposal for pipe rack to the companies who are listed in the PEZA site and got only 1 feedback. If we sell to this company it won’t be that much of a hassle because they buy in parts. We do not need to even cut the pipes for them.

Just today Hanzel and I somewhat talked about putting a franchise of Waffle Wrapps in 168 mall which just 1 minute walking from our house. Franchising fee is about Php 170k to 150k. Maybe if this pushes through I just quit my job and concentrate on this one. But I think it is much better if I still have a job and have this business at the same time. But I think it is a good excuse to quit my current job.

Brown!

Brown

You're brown, a credible, stable color that's reminiscent of fine wood, rich leather, and wistful melancholy. Most likely, you're a logical, practical person ruled more by your head than your heart. With your inquisitive mind and insatiable curiosity, you're probably a great problem solver. And you always gather all of the facts before coming to a timely, informed decision. Easily intrigued, you're constantly finding new ways to challenge your mind, whether it's by reading the newspaper, playing a trivia game, or composing a piece of music. Brown is an impartial, neutral color, which means you tend to see the difference between fact and opinion easily and are open to many points of view. Trustworthy and steady, you really are a brown at heart.

Rants

I’m somehow really not up to my work these past few days. One of the obvious reasons is because I really can’t deal with “Madam”. I just try to be obedient to her because after all I am just a noob here since the start of the year. Yet still she tries to put me down. I really do not know what to do with her. Since she has a firm grip on my boss, my boss seems to see my mistakes more often. These past few days, I have been making mistakes that somehow were Madam’s fault and I took all of the blame. I just forget these things because for me these mistakes are lessons learned. Today, I had a chat with the other office mate and she told me that my boss is somehow not happy with me. I’m almost about to become a regular employee of this company and the only things that my boss wants me to improve on is making connections with clients because he said I’m naïve about that point which I know. Madam somehow told my boss that I still have to prove that I am worthy to become a regular in this company. I still do not know what I should prove to become a regular here. They should have expected less from me because I’m just a new grad and no professional work yet since I graduated. The last job I had before this can’t be called a professional job because that company didn’t even enroll me to the SSS and my current company does not know about that previous job. I’m really seriously thinking of quitting this job and find a better paying job that also has equal treatments to it’s employees. My boss is still thinking of letting me go to Korea for some training so maybe I may quit this job after going there.

Last week, I checked my email and there was an email from our alumni Yahoo Groups telling everyone that there’s an opening for a job that deals with troubleshooting PCs and networking. I was aghast when I saw it, that was my dream job and yet I can’t apply because I currently have a job. The job pays more and even will have an increase after only 3 months. I have average knowledge for the troubleshooting part and beginner’s knowledge in the networking part but I am a quick learner especially to those kinds of topics. Another opportunity gone to waste.
