Yeah, I realized that maybe this is not inspired blog that fills with motivation and good news, but it is truly happened on my life. Im in a situations that truly HELL, if I can use that word (*a little bit hyperbolic*)
But I think I see some hope and the rainbow- one step closer to me..and im gonna give my best effort to reach that. So now im gonna STOP complaining and tell u some happy situations that I felt this lately.
FIrstable, let me describe my daily activities.
My current and will be my last client is located at Gatot Subroto, near with Palang Merah Indonesia office and Universitas Paramadina. The company was established on October 4, 1996 based on Notarial Deed No. 8…oops, sorry this is a part of disclosure on Notes to the Financial Reports, haaha.
Client’s working hours is from 7.30 AM to 5.00 PM..yeah, quite normal working hours, I guess. But as an auditor, with unusual working hours, I arrived at client about 9AM and got home about 9 to 10PM.
I worked at third floor, at 4x5 metres meeting room facilitated with TV, whiteboard and six-comfortable-office-chair.
About this client…hemm, they really niccceee persons. We usually had lunch together at auditor’s room, watching TV especially infotainment programme and a quiz show called “Happy Song” with Choky Sithohang as the host, yeah…. We are a huge fans of this cute guy ;D
Sometimes we are sharing our lunch each other and eat Rujak with spicy sambal, because one of my client is pregnant and need to eat “Mangga Muda” and other fruits, it is her baby wish..
I can tell you that I think this is a dream place to work, because it feels like you work with your own family and all are well organized. The office facilitated with a Bell or Alarms which will ring at Lunch Time and at the time we have to go home. Ten minutes before the alarm rings, you have to pack your stuff, so on 5PM sharp, you just walk away from your desk, move to the lift and reach the office car that will safely carry you to home. Nice facilitation, right? Plus you will get uniforms which are different from Monday to Friday.
What am I doing in this room?
1. Im checking several supporting documents made by client to prove the existence of Company’s transaction. As an auditor, we just give an assurance that the Company’s financial statements are fairly stated and free of material misstatement, we could not checked ALL company’s transactions, thus we picked representative samples to cover our assurances. And my representative samples consisted of: 14 binders for sample vouching inventory mutation, 9 binders for sample vouching revenue cycle, and more than 60 other voucher for other accounts. Am I checked all that supporting documents by my-self? Off course YES, im a single fighter at this client, as I usually do, hahaaa…and like other auditors do..we are independent person, rite??!! =p.
2. 2.2. Picture below taken at night, maybe about 8PM. If you zoom into my laptop screen, it was “List of Point to Do and Point Review”, which was given by my Senior Manager. It contained all the things you have to do and response or review about your working paper, so you must do additional procedures to cover the assurances as I said before. It was some guidance from above for us to follow.
3. 3. 3. Sleeping, haaha.. just kidding..even im so sleepy on critical time (2 to 4PM), I must stay awake to do my tasks, before the new tasks are coming to my e-mail, hehe.. when im sleepy, I usually have some chat or SMS with my friends or stand up for a while, turn on my Windows Media Player playlist and sing a singable songs…=D
Short-sleeved shirt (with neutral colour such as white, black, gray, brown), long pants, five-centimetres-shoes-in-cream/khaki, and backpack.
As a female auditor, I prefer to use long pants better than skirt, why? Because it is more comfortable to use long pants since sometimes you have to carry a LOT of Working Paper, documents, etc.. and walk around client to inquired them, borrow some documents and to prevent sexual harassment (haha, just kidding).
Auditor’s stuff:
1.Standard stationary such as: pencil, red-ballpoint, eraser, type-X, ruler, binder-clip, staples,stabilo, cellotape.
2. Un-standard stationary such as: tixin (it looks like donut-0-, use as sticker to make the hole in your document not easily ripped), “Vicks-Inhaler” and “Refreshing eye drops” to make you stay awake.
3. Most important stuff: laptop+the battery, calculator, modem (u must stay connect to internet so that you can regularly check your email from new tasks, and sometimes to updating your status on Facebook, Twitter or to write a new post on your blog, just like what im doing right now, hiihi), tea or coffe, CANDIES and other sweetener to stabilize your blood sugar and to prevent from high-blood tension.
And the good news: it’s only about 7 days from now, and im gonna FREE FROM ALL of above tasks, ALL of above situations, ALL of above stuffs, and the outfit. (In my new office, I have to use skirt, and after six months, im gonna get uniforms-blazer and skirt).
Good news, rite?! =D
