ON ANOTHER GREAT WAY TO FLY........?
I m troubled. But I guess its a really happy dilemma for me.
And actually the picture above summarizes how I m feeling right now.
This morning, not long after reaching home and settling down after another night of booze & clubbing & madness (this time at Zouk), I received a call.
I looked at the number and expected it to be from CAAS to confirm my security clearance & contract signing date. Turns out that it was actually from Singapore Airlines. They have made me a job offer as well, the position being Ground Services Executive.
Obviously I was elated. SIA was the company that once inspired and sparked off my ardent interest and research into the aviation & airline industry, when I was just year 2 then. Always been my dream to join the company since year 2.
Yet over the years, esp after my internship with CAAS at Changi Airport last Dec, I have grown fond of the organization as well. Developed very very strong feelings for the airport. Seeing it as part of my 2nd home.
Obviously there are a lot of other factors involved. But I m really quite troubled now over which organization to opt for. Previously I have adopted a wait-and-see approach, meaning I would only decide about this after receiving the SIA offer. Now that it has come to reality, I would have to make a really tough personal decision for my career and my future.
Both are wonderful & leading organizations in their own right which I really really respect & hope to work for. So obviously, regardless of which offer I take, I am still going to be disappointed in a way that I rejected the other.
And I have until Tuesday to confirm my reply.
Headache...But a pleasant headache. And one which I m really thankful for, and which I appreciate.
