I'm in the office. There's some meeting going on and I have to make sure that everything is ok. So basically, I'm on standby lah kan.
And I decided to call Amni.. just to chat. I know she went out for karaoke with the gang tadi.. and I was sorely missed.
"We all siap cari lagu Cakra Khan cause he said you like the song," she gushed. Unfortunately, they only know the chorus of the song.. but they sang anyway.
Sigh. Terharu giler.
I mean, this is my 'resource centre' gang. The experts in the oil and gas industry. They are all very intelligent men. All holding powerful positions in the Company. Whenever I need to know something about oil and gas, all I have to do is throw the question in the Whatsapp group and someone will answer. One of them will always answer. That's how intelligent they are.. :)
And yet, they still found time to hang out with me (dulu, when I was in KL) and sing for me my fav songs. They look out for me and Amni.. like brothers looking out for their siblings. They mentor and guide and teach us what we need to know about the oil and gas industry.
Just the other day, I was complaining to one of them about how I feel about my job. And he said: "Never underestimate the importance of your job ok?"
I mean, coming from the Senior General Manager of the biggest Company in Malaysia... I felt so overwhelmed. Such an important guy (in the Company) acknowledging the (trivial) job that I do. Well, it felt trivial to me.. like so unimportant.
So when he said that, I was so stunned. And I felt ashamed for lamenting.
Every job is important kan, even cleaning toilets. For can you imagine life without toilet cleaners?
So yeah. I felt honored that he acknowledged the importance of my job. He, who is holding such an important position and making intelligent decisions for the Company.
I'm blessed. To have awesome, humble people around me. Angels who lift my spirits when I don't feel so good.
And just now, while I was talking to Amni, it was the same guy who sent me an iMessage of the song he sang for me during the karaoke session just now. And it brought tears to my eyes. Happy tears. Grateful tears knowing that someone cares enough.
Oh. It's been an amazing day. Which started with nice breakfast, made specially for me. And then for lunch, the boys got me some delicious beef stuff from Barcelos. All delivered to my apartment.
Blessed... I am.
Alhamdulillah.
