i believe i'm better known of a dessert person than a stressful person.
and i recall the last stressful job i did, the only one stressful job i had before this November, was with Z company.
3 years later, here i am, in the middle of my 2nd stressful job in my career history page.
first meeting with station was... painful.
i was quoted over a line and kept on being attacked using it.
SY who didn't know me well thought that i'll be harsh to the client, not knowing that i was kinda trained under such 'tvc-culture' that i'll lick their shoes if i have to. but little that i know, you can't tell client "no, u can't change", but you can tell client that "you have to push your airing date". that's new to me!
second meeting with client was... disaster.
everyone was so-ooo fake.
laughing over 'jokes' and the V is the most typical 'laughing tiger'.
whatever it is, i successfully bought one week's time, and with that 'high budget', which the production house claim "quite high in the market", you have to give them the best of the best. mind you, one week to prepare for 2 different shoot, but hell, no mercy, because, "i told you clients are overseas, i told you the situation already". yes, but i should blame myself for not taking my mum's advise on over-taking jobs for money's sake. because she did tell me too.
now, i've been in meeting for almost 6 hours today... and still juggling with the budget. probably the 'in' thing now is the 'painless budget', so everyone is trying to be trendy?
well, at least, the client's direction is confirmed and no more guessing game. i believe that's the greatest news of the day. IF, they are not the fickle minded type. and oh ya, V is going overseas soon too! the I (minimal or no Internet service) & A country.
so... with a break from the documentary editing, thanks to L's leave, i'm going to drown myself into this work...
don't worry, i'm proud to say i'm still cooping this... well, i guess. i'm just experiencing rather a strange thing in my life, which is called STRESSED, i'm not so familiar with it... yet.
alright, that's it for the bitching and complaining. i'm going to... try to enjoy my dinner... nope, actually my breakfast & lunch as well.
and then, i shall be re-energize again and dash full force!!!
