What kind of manager will you be?

You can complain about them, but so far the AMs I met who became managers all became the thing they sworn to change.

Not fair comparison imo. Your perspective changes after promotion.

If you are home-buyer, you want property prices to drop. After you bought your property, you can't wait for prices to soar.

I'm just doing my 10 hours during this peak and nothing more. Whether I'm fast or slow I don't give a **** anymore. Not like our insurance covers mental health or specialist visits.

4 of my seniors got PIP this year even though their work seems fine. Apparently overhired, not sure if just an KP thing or same across all firms

need to know the latest gossips?
need to know tips to wayang?

its peak period welcome back my associates

Happy New Year everyone, rmb to go for your stocktake tdy

Sometimes AMs are made manager-in-charge and there's no other managers on the job. They can sign off on files like a manager too.

I hope all the other seniors and managers resign so that only associates like these are left at the firm. Then you can be AIC

actually you all can throw letter tml.

last time my batchmates all quit during january to pwn the firm. dec that time still can laugh and joke with manager and pretend to be loyal to the firm lol.

usually peak period start in 2nd week of jan cause client still do closing during 1st week. throw letter tml and you can leave on 1st feb.
