is the job market really that good now?

recently, the turnover rate in my company globally is rather high...actually not exactly recently...but i think it started this year...guess the market is really picking up and there's many job opportunites out there...

early this year..a colleague who only joined us for less than 6 months moved on to Barclays..and there are news that she's earning 8K a month for some graduate program..i mean seriously, i find it unbelieveable..8K a month for a rather fresh graduate? and she's not the smart kind..she thinks that SQ aeroplanes fly faster and that sugarcane is soaked in sugar syrup to make it sweet...so duhz right? so i asked my uncle who's been in the financial industry for 15 years..he said no way would Barclays pay their fresh graudate 8K a month! and my the other uncle who just got a PHD said :" ya...8K per quarter.." hahahaha...

and from the same team as the bimbo, the guy from Hong Kong office quit..and then some other guy found another job in some private equity firm..and the people from the sales team are moving out like ants...everyone is moving to greener pastures..even if people are not moving out of the company..they are moving within the company...lately..my dearest team-mate is moving to another team...and so we're going to have a new team-mate and someone from another team might move to my team...sooo many movements...

and just yesterday...the london colleague who went to princeton with me a month ago..has just quitted! i'm sooooo going to miss him...he's been such great fun to have...anyhow kinda shocking but yet i'm happy for him...and the moment my team heard that..they went.." see hannah, you tramatized him in princeton!! " hahahaha! basically he found another job in some private equity firm..mmm...maybe i should try my luck too? hahahaha but i dont know what private equity does....hahahaha..i'm kinda stupid right? anyhow, it seems like Europeans are more aggressive in their career movements...there are ALWAYS changes in that office...

now i really wonder..is it time for me to move as well? acutually i'm still happy at what im doing..although my job can be quite sucky..but i can still feel challenged and everyday i'm learning new things and new markets...and i love my people here..but seriously i have no idea..i did ask my uncle if i should also start applying for other jobs since the market seems to be really good and he said i could but it would be better to stay till the end of the year...and besdies my current company is not that bad...sighz, i dont even know what i want to do..all i know is i want to have lots of money!

never mind...am going to USA tomorrow (yay!)...*laughs* shall enjoy the holiday...get broke and then i'll be back in reality and i'll sit down and think about my future..if there's any to start with...
