The date is confirmed and it is imminent. The waiting game is now on. I will be going for my 7 months course up in the north. My 2014 is gone just like that. When I complete the course in September things will never be the same again. I will again move into a new workplace and I cannot expect what happen during the 7 months. I have to send of my precious princess to my Mom in Kuching.
I thought I would be ok because I'm looking forward to DPA (diploma pengurusan awam) , a compulsory course to be attended by PTD prior to confirmation, you miss this, means you lost your seniority. Last time, they went for DPA just 4 months after appointed, but now, we have to wait for a year or two. It's difficult to carry yourself as course participants when you are already comfortable managing in your respective offices.
Like me, during my service since appointed in 2011, I have worked in three different organisations, Kementerian Sumber Manusia, Institut Tadbiran Awam (INTAN) and Jabatan Imigresen Sabah. I don't know what awaits me after the course. Lets hope for the best. I'm prepared at the moment and I hope it will not be to harsh as the theme for this final course of ours (there will be no more DPA because PTDs are now appointed through cadets in a 1 year course) is 'engagement'. If there should any problem, we can discuss and get engaged with the top management.
I'm still in the midst of preparation and thanks to whatsapp and facebook and even instagram, communication is no longer a barrier, we can easily get infos from friends heretofore.
Well, at the footnote, I try to see this at the positive side, macam masuk slimming center hehehe
