I had high hopes when I first got here. I thought it would be that easy to land the job that I want and get better with my craft. On another token, I also thought that I needed to shift away from being an “expert” in quality assurance and just focus on other things. Still as a food technologist, but not in QA. I thought my few masteral units in statistics would just go to waste. I thought this day would never come.
But God has other plans for me. He knew my heart’s desire and true enough, he granted me what I wanted. I am now officially the new Quality Assurance Manager at Interstate Bakeries Corp., one of the nation’s leading food companies. I knew I have done this before, but to do this in an entirely different country is another story. I am confounded with mixed emotions— both confidence and fear. Due to my small stature, I am not sure how people will take me seriously for who I am. But at the same time, it is also a very good chance for me to showcase how brilliant I can be.
The game is on. This is my time to shine.
