I Have No Title Idea (may be edited when I do)

--Shell Robinsons Mobility Station--

Man, they really need to update their Google directory information. They’re open 24 hours! Just Google "Shell Robinsons Mobility Station - Galleria Cebu City" and see for yourself.

One of the perks of my job now is understanding the importance of accurate information online. I’ve become quite tech-savvy (😜 -- NOT!). Speaking of work, it’s been a rough week, but before diving into that, I want to give a shoutout to this gas station because it's so clean! The restroom even smells like a spa. It's been my husband’s and my favorite spot since last year. Sometimes, when we wake up in the middle of the night due to our graveyard shift schedule, we head there for a very late-night or very early-morning "dinner." We just get two 3-in-1 coffees and a bag of chips, all for less than Php100. Talk about bang for your buck! Here are some of my other favorites:

Banana Custard - Php155, 3-n-1 Coffee - Php15. This used to look like the onset pic. Apologies for my photo editing skills! 

Pastry Sheet with Custard (not really its name) - Php145, Bearbrand Swak mixed with Nescafe stick - Php40.

Their prices have skyrocketed. Like their Chicken Turnover, it used to be less than Php150 and now it's almost Php200. It's delish though. 

So, ok. Balancing the company's needs with my team's has been like trying to juggle a dozen plates. It's challenging.  I've always understood this, but being in the thick of it is a whole different story. It's a constant dance between meeting deadlines, keeping spirits high, and ensuring everyone feels supported. They say not to take it personally, but when you care deeply about your team, it's tough not to. Right now, it just feels like my team is bearing the brunt of the negative aspects at work, which isn't fun for me as their leader. 

But here’s the thing: my team’s resilience is absolutely amazing! They always find reasons to laugh and celebrate, making work not just productive but downright fun! And there I am, in my corner, listening to them, waving my invisible pom-poms, and cheering them on like a proud leader, which I am.

Wow! I thought this was going to be a "rant" blog but somehow, I'm feeling inspired instead. I guess I don't really have a reason to rant after all. Tsk.

Anyway, here are some pics we took the past days during our meetings.

Okay, it's 7:46AM, it's a Saturday. I'm gonna go home now because the Bana's going to be home anytime soon. Always excited to spending quality time with him! 'Til next blog!
