My 1 year as a RedRibboner!

Gosh...I just realised that I have successfully completed 1 full year in RedRibbon Days! Woohoo!

This past year with RedRibbon Days has been one of the most fantastic, awesome, gratifying working experience ever!

I still remember answering one of the questions during the interview about what made me apply to this post and I think I answered something along the lines of 'I think the whole idea of gifting an experience is amazing! And I believe that this concept will definitely catch on in Malaysia'. That, my friends, is something that I still believe & hold on to dearly, even a year later.

I consider myself very lucky to be a part of this groundbreaking company. Sherin, Nik & Ming Ne have taken RRD 'to boldly go where no other company in Malaysia has gone before' and I have to say kudos to them for bringing RRD to where it is now....2 years in business...a spanking new & bigger office...more staff...700+ varied experiences...these are definitely steps to even greater heights!

I have been indeed very lucky to have been able to experience some of the experiences that we have like Sphereing, Pilot For A Day, Paintball, Team-building events, Corporate events for clients & exciting events like birthday parties, hen's night parties and so on.

Experiencing these amazing experiences are not the only perks of this job. The instant gratification you get when a customer compliments & thanks you for making their day, is something that one cannot easily get. The knowledge that we have made someone out there happy is truly a blissful feeling. And the joy af being part of someone's special day, be it birthdays, anniversaries, marriage proposals or even mother's day & father's day is something I look forward to daily!

A lot of my friends are very envious of my job and job title! ; ) They say that I'm truly lucky to be able to be in a job which seems so exciting & fun! Yes, I agree! My job is FUN! I love being able to plan exciting, fun & out-of-the-box kind of events. Planning events is something that I've always loved to do...even before joining RRD! So, I guess it's quite safe to say that I've landed an ideal job for myself.

Well, enough of my ramblings. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sherin, Nik & Ming Ne for firstly, hiring me and secondly, for all the support that you have given me in the course of my 1 year here in RRD. I would also like to thank Theing (adik) for all your assistance and help in the course of our day-to-day job.

I'm truly proud to say that I'm a RedRibboner!

Here's to many more years to come!

Cheers!
