2001
When i was a working student...I didn't really remember when i fully had time for myself.
It was quite difficult following kind of schedule with no proper daily programme to track on.
"I wish with that, your health is not forsaken, whenever there is time, try to doze off some sleep loss. i urge you to do that". A strange friend told me.
He is an engineer, he would sometime talk to me bout his eratic work sked. Usually he was taking fast lunch to sleep half the break time and averaging 20 mins. nap. Whenever he was in the site, he just parked under the shed and the car was idle while the aircon was on. Their accountant would sometimes complained and would ask him his car needs service, because the fuel consumption was not proportionate to the mileage reading. He was laughing while he was telling his experience.
When he had project supervisory, normally when he had one it lasted to 14 months average. (normally Bridges project).
His most critical stage was during the first few months, when he was trying to organize everything, coordinates involves individuals and parties, made sure the job took off and ran smoothly according to projected program of schedule..
The hardest part of his role was of course himself took off all the liabilities, significant deviation from base line amounting to stern warning... or worst penalty from client.
It is true its in the construction business where the schedule are extremely tight. where pressure is almost insurmountable and the right discipline is a must.
But of course not all the while were sour grapes because on the latter several months everything was almost routinary.
The bottom line there was, not mentioning the monetary benefits, I felt that he had a great feeling of satisfaction and some sort of pride, when all his efforts invested paid off. particularly when he said the bridges open to traffic, he would boastfully chide to himself "ba ako yata ang may gawa nyan"
But of course he had never forget that everything will be standing by his efforts alone, he would humbly said "i'm just a contributor"
He was always like that to me, giving inspiration, his stories and experiences inspired me to press on.
He would always tell me stories that made me realized to pursue my dreams, to have a degree...
He wished that all my worries will receive good answers.
He assured me that i am worth to pursue my plans and dreams in the best way i could, though in realistic view it was impossible to really get into it. With the situation i was enduring.
He knew as a stranger who didnt know a true feeling and knowledge of what i was into during those times, it was easy for me telling him everything and talked about it, was just like a piece of cake.
He believed as far as he could gauge probabilities were just armslenght close to me. "ive been in that" he added.
I was inspired in everything ha had said to me. He was right "God cares", i didn't have to feel downtrodden. i came across with this lines many times and had came to figure out wholeheartedly what was the effect into my life.
I was maybe upset when all my prayers were not heard and no answers at disposal, but i came to believe later that god has better option that applied to me.
His most inspiring story...
He had to stop studies after his secondary level for years, until his two siblings completed their respective tertiary courses.
Like me he yearned to step further ahead, even came to regretful occasion that he felt bad towards his parents. Rather than going astray he was keep believing and worked hard until it was his turn. Working hard didn't stop there, he had to find ways to complement his parents understandable support.
God is no doubt in everything, like me he carried so much of load and God helped him. What he had tried to impart me about his experiences was for me to be able to do what i truly felt for myself. for me to to think of some way to beef up my limited resources and try to redirect some of it to start up my plan.
i sacrificed, i tried to be firm.. of course he was not encouraging me to forsake my love ones... but for me to realize my dreams...
When i was ejected from my job due to some CRUEL BEING i had to came back from letter A again. picking up the pieces rebuilding my dreams was really hard. we had lost our communication, i wasn't able to finish my desire to have a degree, but his advices and his stories remained in my thought and it was proven that God has another plan that applied to me. A better plan indeed... having my own happy, full of love and respect.. FAMILY.
