I've started working at the family business for a week already. Until now, I don't really like it. The reason behind is I'm doing bookkeeping stuff and darn this is a boring job. However, I have to admit that there are lots of things to learn. Things such as how to file thsoe documents, where should you put those transactions into the computer accounting program and how to prepare the salary and tax related issues... and most of all the CASH issues... getting people who touched the cash to sign documents here and there. Afterall, I'm just a fresh graduate who had no experience with bookkeeping at all.

It's stressful in a way because there are creditors constantly calling for money... well, cashflow is not healthy here... Other issue is I'm afraid of doing the wrong thing and screw up on something. Alan suggested that I was putting on too much pressure on myself... but honestly, I won't feel as stressful if I'm working for someone else, afterall, my family relies on the business and if I did something wrong, I'm killing the income of the whole family. But if I was to work for someone, the worst is I'd be fired and they'd hire someone else to fix the mess.
