New Job!

I was 10 days old into the new job, a multinational indian company based in Malaysia. First impression - i was quite surprise the way the company carried themself. Almost everything is paperless. Information is shared across the world via their web-based technology (web-info-sharing: Somehow rather, way too much of info on the web and i believe it will take years to read them all). Everybody is working across the region, over the world. Staffs here could be handling projects or reported to boss on the other edge of the world. They are expanding very fast in Malaysia, but without solid management supports. Freshies tend to be very blur, cause nobody has briefed them what to do next. Really curious to find out more about the management style. How does this carry them to who they are today.

Coming from an insurance background. I was assigned to a project based in Sydney. That would mean, moving to Sydney in the next coming month for at least another 6 to 12 months. A mixture of feeling for me. I am really desparate for a change in job and I am ok with short trip, but a long trip (>= 3 months) is a bit too much for me. I have been travelling a lot ever since i took up the regional post on my previous company. And now, again, another move. I am not so excited about it, but rather sad and worried. Where would i be in the next couple of months? Will it be back to my lovely Home to Malaysia? Or would it be somewhere else? It's never a "Home-Settling" feeling for me. I have to go around and start getting to know new friends (which is rather hard for me), adapting to new environment etc etc..... but i am telling myself, this will not be too long for me, another 2 more years of travelling and i am done. I will be settling down some place in the world. With or without my love one. Yes... a place to settle down. So tired.
