One thing I like about Accenture is I need not defend my bad transcript in college. They judge me by my cover although I’m not a book. By mere looks, they marvel at how genius I am with my braincells this excessive, they are popping out from my nostrils. So I am here in this big city for a chance to make big.
Back in the province, I have a simple, contented life. I bummed my way to college and enjoyed the company of people whose biggest dreams in life is to get wasted over a bottle of gin. I ride the carabao, go swimming in Rio Grande de Cagayan which is the longest and widest river in the country and at the end of the day, get to watch the bats in its ritualistic circadian flight in Peñablanca, Cagayan.
My first weeks at work is adjustment. If I’m accustomed at the back of the carabao, I have to be accustomed now with the elevator. People here eat in Jolly jeep, a mobile food stand. They eat while standing. It’s like a big picnic in standing position which I say is less comfortable. Everybody here is running on their way to work like some little demons are running after them – at least I have now an idea why living in the city is called a rat race. I never thought of myself as coming to the city. I’ve got a life to live in my own province. Or maybe I never thought something big like this could happen in my life. My idea of a wonderful life is working as burger flipper in Jollibee and going home at night to watch porn videos with pop corn and boiled peanuts on the side.
I would have dared holding my balls against the best in this IT field, but those endless rejections I had applying for work had consumed my self esteem. Nobody wants to give me the experience I need to start a career. So if anybody asks me why on hell I love Accenture, come on, it’s because it sees the potential in me. No company ever dared to go through lengths of conquering mountains, crossing rivers, and riding a carabao just to reach me and ask if I am interested to work with them. How the hell is that? I’m just a nobody but I will sure pay back my due that it’s all worth pulling me off and giving me a shot.
