I get lots of scolding from numerous external parties because my few levels of management can never agree with each other when it comes to decision-making. When decision is finalised, it's already considered last minute job and I get scolding from them for 'bad planning'. They are so cheap that myself have to be my own despatch person and even do lots of lowest point of job areas that any part timers or uneducated people can easily be hired to do it for me. Knowing it's events life, I have to work until really late in office daily, even sometimes up to midnight ++ so I can forget about my social & weekends life (we have few events every month without fail). It's all rush rush, scolding scolding, late nights and high turn-over rate in my department.

Tell me..is it worth the RM2.7k to have a life like that? I don't know... any advice?

1.9k salary??!! Get away from that hell place!

Yea I know what you mean. My place also, thanks to our management indecisive outcome, our department are delayed to the last minute and we ended up involving the graphic designer to rush it through till morning. Gosh I always feel bad giving my creative design ppl last minute work cause I know how it feels to be rushed by people to meet datelines!

I think the job culture here in Malaysia is pretty screwed up and they are taking advantage on us small fries because they will give the "economy is unstable so you small fry needs us desperately so i'm gonna make u work like ur earning RM5k and if u dun like it, quit ur job but do u think u can find another job that pays you?" kinda attitude.

But seriously... 3 years experience.. u shuold be earning more... and with those late nights too. I really need to slow down my working life desperately..i miss my family and friends...
