After Latihan Ikhtisas, I aim to have a more manageable work-life balance life style.\u00a0 Indeed.\u00a0 In an article<\/a> that I found, the author describes how as academicians we might fall into the trap of having ideal work-life balance life style, without actually having one when all what we have is in a form of IDEA.\u00a0 This is not good.\u00a0 So, I decide to stay firm when I receive ad hoc things that can jeopardise my work-life balance stance.<\/p>\n

I got an email to inform that I was selected to be one of the facilitators for this modular course.\u00a0 The thing is, I have classes every single day.\u00a0 So, being me who never recycle old notes without making any tweaking or change of the old notes on every single semester, I need time to prepare for my classes.<\/p>\n

A senior colleague lamented that she needs me to be one of the facilitators because I am one of the best.\u00a0 Back in my mind “Whatever” because I know that in our school. we have never lack of any expert in anything.\u00a0 You name it.\u00a0 We’ve got it all, y’all.\u00a0 Some even jack of all trades, but _____________ (fill in the blank).<\/p>\n

The thing is, when I used to get a session for this modular course (long time ago), I normally will prepare my own notes.\u00a0 But at that time, at least I have one day without any class so I can prepare notes for any modular course.\u00a0 Now, things are different.\u00a0 But somehow this senior does not get it.\u00a0 \u00a0Since I came back from my Latihan Ikhtisas, I have tuition classes almost every weekend.\u00a0 How about those weekends without tuition class?\u00a0 I will revise notes\/worksheet that I want to use for my tuition class.\u00a0 So weekends basically is a me time for the things not related to my official work.\u00a0 Gone are the days when I would prepare modular courses notes on weekend.\u00a0 \u00a0It was something that I used to do.\u00a0 Now, it is different.<\/p>\n

Well, it is kind of weird because when I was not around, she could find others to replace me for the sessions.\u00a0 I just don’t understand why out of nowhere I have become someone “indispensable”.\u00a0 I must be stupid to be so gullible to believe what she said, right?<\/p>\n

I took an action right away.\u00a0 I never regret with what I did.\u00a0 Attaboy!<\/p>\n
