Let me introduce myself, I am Ying Sin, sixteen
years and four months old (to be precise) J Here, you
might think that I’m too young to work and supposed to be enjoying school life
and have fun with my fellow friends. However, my case is an exception. I am
officially an intern and rookie here and totally have no idea what I need to
do. Besides, eating, sleeping, daydreaming, and watching my favourite soap opera, reading
page-turner, studying, preparing for exams; now, I have to brainstorm for more
enlightening and bright ideas for this article.

Okay, it’s part of my job so I’ll take it.
Seriously, everyday, everyone sits in front of a general purpose device that
can be programmed
to carry out a finite set of arithmetic or logical operations which in short is
the computer, here in the (ta-da~) WeBUY operation site. I have got to tell you
that if you are lack of adipose tissue, please bring along your whatever
“protective clothing” by any chance you come over here to the office. If not,
you might end up chattering your teeth here. Trust me because it’s freaking
cold here. Brr… My fingers are freezing off…

Blah, blah, blah…… sorry for all the nonsense up
there. Now, let us get into the main issues here. My work experience here is
kind of, you can say fun and an eye opener for me. Learn what I never learnt,
do what I never done, try what I never tried and so on.
Life is
one big action packed adventure, so enjoy it! Make the best out of every
moment. Smile. Laugh. Cry. And don't be afraid to try.

Honestly,
the moments I had here with my colleagues or rather refer them as my friends
are truly memorable, unforgettable and genuine. Though on the very first day of
my work, I was not nervous, instead I felt rather looking forward to it and
curious of how my work place’s going to be. And now as I think back, how I wish
that time never flies and everything can just slow down for me because I still
want to spend my time here with everyone. People said that time flies when
you’re having fun and time also flies when you’re not having nearly enough fun.

Also,
now I’m going to talk about the awesome stuff here. I found that the coffee
making machine here is rather amazing because it offers quite a lot of flavors
such as honey green tea, white coffee, lemongrass (don’t know what that is and
how it tastes like), teh tarik (don’t know how it pulls the teh inside, lol… ) Everyone
here has a tag or a pass to enter or exit the office. Even I have one!
The
other unique thing about here is they have a tool box to keep their
stationeries and their stuff which I think this is quite innovative and
creative. At the same time, it can also save space and keep your work place
neat and tidy. Okay, here’s another one which is cooler.
Every lunch break, you
get to go to One Utama for lunch. That’s really nice but sometimes it can be
rather tough to make a decision on where to head for lunch as there are way too
many options here. But do not worry because once you make decision, the
universe conspires to make it happen.

Have
you read the article about WeBUYfrom The Star newspaper ? It noted that WeBUY.com.my wants to
expand the MRC (Merchant Relation Consultant) team and create more job
opportunities for younger generation. To be frank, the team is really dynamic.
It’s
true that as digital era takes over the analog era, more people or in fact
consumers prefer shopping online and browse through these sites for good
shopping and F&B experiences. Here, WeBUY.com.my strongly demonstrates the
trend by succeeding as a sustainable online shopping site in Malaysia.
As
you know, the team is driven by a Gen-Y force that majority of them are tech
savvy and creative in terms of brainstorming for bright ideas to drive the
company forward. They instantly come up
with ideas to promote deals and attract consumers with not only great discounts
but interactive campaigns too.
Robert
Shaffer once said that we must view young people not as
empty bottles to be filled but as candles to be lit. Gen-Y in WeBUY.com.my
knows exactly what it wants and is able to position the deal with the right
tone. And, I’m glad that I’m able to play a role within this dynamic and young
team force!
Lots
of people asked me why I came here for work experience. Actually, even I myself
also don’t know why. What I know is that I have no other choice instead of
coming here and it came out to be a very good and pleasant experience. Yes, I
enjoyed it very much.

So
on my last day, actually I have nothing much to do, just chill out a bit and
relax in other words typing all these which is what you’re reading now. J I know it’s kind of long
and like never ending but I still have more to tell. So just sit back and read.
Oh yes, haven’t mentioned about my
supervisor. The first person I talked to in the office and she has helped me a
lot with my work, giving me all the guidance and support. A huge thank you to
her and of course all credits go to her. Without her, you won’t be reading this
and I won’t be here to share with you all my experience. Not to forget about
everyone here too, sitting in the office together and doing what we all
supposed to do.

Also, I want to thank her for the small
farewell party she and my fellow colleagues threw for me. We had a great time
together. Last but not least, working experience is very fun and if by any
chance you (teenagers) should experience as you never know you might discover
something new and know making money is not easy. Before I end this, I just want
to say I love you guys and WeBUY rocks forever and ever. I think that’d be
enough because now I feel heavy hearted to leave now.
