Crisis Interlude
As a child, I envisioned myself working in some laboratory or science facility– It’s the thing I fancied and work hard for it while growing up because I believe it is on this field I excelled. But a twist of fate brought me to study business instead and it took me time to sink in to this kind of reality for I am at lost, perhaps subconsciously i’m hesitant. So I pursue a career in banking for flimsy reasons and maybe for the perks.
Perks that opened my mind and enjoy it for quite some time that give me the confidence that my gut feel is right in choosing this kind of industry. The same industry that made me doubtful today. Perks that made some of the industry’s big wigs to ask for more and getting it by all means and oblivious of the risk involve. The same industry that created a domino effect to our economy. Perks that propelled greed.
Now everybody is sowing the fruit even the innocent one. From our office alone, It pains to see some of your colleagues leave everyday and I myself is wary if I could be spared if the situation goes worst. I empathized with my friends and prayed that we may all have the humility to accept our fate with courage and be strong enough to deal the situation.
My childhood dream is already extinct and part of the bleak past I already abandoned but the path that I embrace which is the industry that been shaken by time still breaths hope from its lesson and I still hope for the better because optimism is the only strength I could cling on in this time of crisis if this is not a nightmare.
