Little wonders...

Have u ever had experienced going into the meeting full of “big” people?
I always shivered at the thought, that was before, and even now, after experiencing one.

This morning, my boss had been sent home, and luck has called me to represent a department in behalf of him.
Say, how would you react? It’s a pride knowing that your boss trusted you in this one. You may call it, a nonchalant activity but it does really matter, one way or another.
Going to that room, I thought of escaping, I thought of leaving. I thought of making excuses not to attend. I thought of be absent for tomorrow I need to report the details of the meeting…
Going to that room, I could feel my heart pounding heavily, just like when you need to present in a large group of people and you needed to impress them. I need to be present and that is all that matters. But, with that presence, you need courage, and skills and knowledge. How hard could that be?
I met people I never thought I would come to interact. And I’ve learned that there’s something that needs to be discussed. I learned there’s information needed to be cascaded, needed to be disseminated. There’s an approaching activity, one that I must not say. Not now, not until I haven’t told my boss.
Its not crucial, but its okay.
Funny thing is, its over, and I got through that. And I was able to speak out and even raise a question. No matter how I felt stupid asking, or raising my voice, I got through that.
Now I don’t have to be afraid showing my face to my boss. J (big grin)
I learned something today, the boss, is just like me. Just like everyone else, they are still people, working also at this company. Just like me, they also eat the same food, also use the same language. Just like everyone else. We’re here, and we work. And we spend time together.
Someday, it will be us. Who spearhead the meeting.
Oh and by the way, I had coffee and bread served to me, by one of the big boss… hehehe
And I cant leave the room without a bottled water (really, do I have to mention that?) heheheh.
