Today marks my 2nd week in my new job
Not gonna lie, since Monday ive been questioned on my progress - yes my boss said my progress is not up to her expectation. there were a lot of question marks on my head.
you know sometimes it's not that i dont want to approach retailers. (of course fears of rejection sometimes) but most importantly i dont understand my mall well enough.
-idk the rent
-idk which is vacant or which is highly prospecting
-what kind of histories they had with the retailers im gonna approach etc
and you're gonna ask me how am i not being briefed? yes im not being briefed at all. im expected to pick up all the info during their weekly leasing meeting & going through the folders (while i still need to draft e memos & rent rebate letters on top of that prospecting and designing our new leasing kit) and all the out of the blue meetings & virtual trainings being held. so i'll need to know this lot has been offered to someone else by reading through the tons of emails i receive instead of being highlighted in a master file.
and yes. therefore. you're expected to do your work on weekends as you cant finish your job during the weekdays.
ive to align so many things. barely one week in she's questioning why my progress is so slow.
dear boss, it's not a culture shock for me. i understand your expectation but when you say you'll guide me, please guide me through 100%. not just giving me 10% here and there and expecting to understand the picture fully.
as much as i love how they're not stingy on sharing information - though the time of retrieving info is slow due to heavy workload - but sometimes different layers work differently. and obviously im not being briefed well enough on the layers and therefore today i made my mistake of stealing an offer from upper layer which i didnt know it's a line i shouldnt cross. of course green light approval was given from even upper layer and then later on i've to say sorry to the upper layer as ive stolen her deal.
yes, for any slightly bigger request, i need to go through 6 layers before green light. imagine.
if you ask me. 2 weeks with my new job is equivalent of how much ive done in 2 months with my ex company. i barely had the time to breathe today not gonna lie. especially when i accidentally stolen the deal today and i only had 30 mins to react.
a lot of time is saved on travelling as my prospects come to my mall so i can meet up to 3 clients in an afternoon instead of just 1 last time. and i'd have been able to get multiple tenants request approval in a morning instead of that little last time. im also able to come out of my own idea sometimes and table out.
tho sometimes i really feel my team is too individualistic on some things. which i really wish we can be more working in a team.
i wanted to work on my leasing kit just now after dinner but i thought, if i am able to manage my time well, no one needs to OT. i mean, yes ive to hit the expectations but i need to feel like a human too.
i hope everyone is well. at my free time now i dont even feel like doing any shit at all. just need ample rest before my fight every morning.
adios for now.
