7:35 a.m. September 4,2006. I am back at work here at the Batangas Provincial Capitol. Once again, I am confronted with the stark realities of the Government bureaucracy.
The daily amount of paperwork that I have to contend with amazes me. My working table is an elongated oval that is roughly three meters square in size; this working table that just greeted me is laden with three days worth of backlog.
This is the price I have to pay for atending the training at Makati.
Checks, vouchers, Permits, payrolls, leave forms, travel orders, notices, meemoranda and some personal mail were neatly piled on the table, waiting for my perusal and signature. This would be a looooooong day!
Not that I regret the break I took. Mind you, I went on official leave so that no government time and money would be spent for my personal edification. The training was such a welcome respite from the day to day grind that I undertake here in Batangas. The friends and acquaintances I made during the three day training would help me in good stead.
And back to work therefore I go.
