Meiling: 請問你有什麼海鮮唔食呢?

黃毅力 力筆從心 唔怕蝕底易上位

最近看了一本樹仁新聞學系出版的刊物,名為《仁聞報》,當中訪問了他們的舊生,現任入境處處長陳國基先生。

這位處長在入境處工作了僅僅28年,但已順利晉升為處長,加入時間為 1982年10月,任助理入境主任職位,在2007年晉升為入境處助理處長,2009年9月起出任副處長,更終在兩個月前,坐正做處長一職,這種情況,在政府機構內實在是絕無僅有,而且此時的他還很年輕,才不過52歲。

這位新紮職高官說了一番說話,我認為很值得與各位職場人士分享。他說:「不怕蝕底的人,才是最不會蝕底的;相反,最怕蝕底的人,往往就時常蝕底!能晉級的人都是不怕蝕底的,不論星期六或星期日,任何時間都不介意上班;上司看見這類員工,當然十分喜歡,因為他既不怕蝕底,又態度正確,晉升機會也就自然給他了。」除此,他還將職場人士分成了以下3類:
1. 差的 - 別人吩咐他,他都不願做;
2. 普通的 - 要別人吩咐了他才做;
3. 優秀的 - 別人沒有吩咐的,他都會主動去做。

處長先生這番說話,實在值得每位日以繼夜上班的讀者留意,以他尚淺的年資,已經晉升到入境處處長,入職時,也不過是一位入境處的助理入境事務主任而已,同樣的28年,他做到了處長,你又能做出這樣的成績嗎?他的成功,大家可以藉此借鏡。

如果有一天上司告訴你:「只要你來年不怕蝕底,連星期六、日都願意加班,我就一定給你晉升!」你會考慮嗎?

如果你屬計算型的,你會計一計回報,回報不錯的,蝕底又何妨?但如果每日的工作沒有明確的回報,你又會否願意堅持下去?你會用心、用力去完成嗎?還是你選擇逆來順受,不理回報,有多少就做多少?

現今的人,就是最懂計算,學校在整個考試制度下,連教學也變得計算起來,求學分、求分數,每個人從小到大,就開始不停的在計,計得多,很多事情就不再用心去作,只顧自己的報酬、或對比別人與自己的得失,計着計着,失的,其實倒是比得的為多。

至於那些不會事事計算的人,只想用心做好工作,到最後,機會一到,他就能得到賞識,也得到了晉升的機會。

也許你又會問:「機會甚麼時候才會有呢?」這個我也不能回答,因為它可以出現,也可以永遠不出現,捉摸不到,看不見、想不到,這就是「現實」了。

人努力是否就一定成功?「計較」可能是成功的因素之一,但我卻認為,若想成功,主要還是視乎你能否忍耐。

有些人會早一點水到渠成;有些人仍然還在等;希冀成功的人就總相信明天會更好,一切都有可能,這種想法,成為他們堅持的原動力與最大的支持者。
當各位讀者讀到這一篇文章時,請想一想,我們力爭上游的目的,是要用心﹖還是要無止境的計算下去呢?

I am TOASTED in a sweet way!

The parcel arrived my desk when I come back to the office after a 5-day business trip and 5-day long weekend. Hooray!
The shoes from TOAST fit me comfortably!
Shoes in size 40 are rare in Hong Kong, so i always have trouble in getting good-looking shoes.
This is the first time i buy shoes online, luckily it is a nice experience.
Like many other online shopping experience, i really enjoy the delivery part. It's like unwrapping gifts from Santa.

The shoes from TOAST are expensive, but i know it's hard to get the same design in HK in size 40. When you get married and getting older, you just go for comfortable shoes. If a pair of flats look extremely fashionable, this is a good investment for 1-2 upcoming seasons.

I used to wear these loafers handmade by my father throughout my school life. I get bored with the design when i was wearing them as a teenager. But now, i love them because i want to turn the clock back. They are not comparable to Father's handmade shoes in terms of the leather quality and work, but they are really classic, chic and slim. They come with real leather sole, so making me feel good to pay for a high price.
Ho yeah! Made in Italy, not in China.

Bun Festival & Parade (May 10, 2011)

A long tiring day... but it's good to get an exclusive pass to follow the parade team to stroll along the route. We have got better angles compared with the visitors staying on both sides of the streets, that's a special offer by a VIP living in Cheung Chau.
Luckily we survived the hot and humid weather in the end and concluded the day with a wonderful seafood dinner.

落妝

我在莎莎購物,一路都找不到我要的東西。
阿倫:你在找什麼?
Meiling:我在找落妝的濕紙巾。
阿倫:(細細聲+正經地說) 我都在找「落人面」的野。[說完後繼續搵,仲想問sales姐姐]

我即刻笑到肚痛!整個feel 都好阿葛的整古電話。
我相信佢聲演比我的文字紀錄好笑萬倍!

Lamma Island (May 7)

It's too sad to stay at home when there's blue sky, we decided to go out for some fresh air on Lamma Island.
We had lunch by the seaside, BB Cafe. This is the place where Tse's visit if we come to Lamma.
As the weather was so good, we were eating right under the sun which was not pleasant, so we kept changing the tables in each course. Finally we were cool in the air-conditioned room and thanks Ah Yea for treating us.
Eating right under the burning sun!
Our mission was to visit this mega fan!
A view of the city from the other side of the observation check-point!

This reminded me of my Okinawa trip - sunset bay
Interesting plant!
Amazing sun beams!
