GoodBye, AWS!

Exactly 10 years 8 months 26 days. Goodbye AWS. No bad feelings, just feelings of moving on para sa mas magandang kinabukasan.

2019 pa jud ko nagthink about moving on sa akong life. Akong mga batchmates has moved on. I really thought nga ako ang ultimate survivor but sadly dili man diay. Everyone was aiming to get number 4 (movie related mababaw nga reason), but sadly I am number 6. HAHAHA and after 10 years no, naa pa 4 out of 10 sa among batch action15 ang nahabilin. Yup, i broke the 50%.

Yes 2019 pa ko nagthink, but grabe nga project, plus covid had really got me. Plus a voice nga nagaingon “Josh, mag10 years ka sa 2020, sayang pud ang incentive”. And so i stayed. I got the 10 years incentive and is it worth it? Lets just say Covid hit hard. But still grateful for everything.

Basically AWS is my home. My comfort space. My mother. LOL. Everything i know now kay tungod sa environment nga giprovide sa ako ani nga company. She’s not perfect but arent we all are?. HAHAHA

Basically, dili man ang project or any sweldo ang nakapastay nako ug dugay sa company. It was the people. Which is isa pud sa reason maong easier ang paglet go while ang setup is WFH. I dont see workmates. I dont have random chitchat with people. Walay club activities. I mean walang ganap. Walay connections. If wala moi IG stories, there is 0% of me chatting you or making small talks. There was nothing to hold on to para mostay when daghan offer nga nindot sa ubang companies.

So I let go with clear conscience. I hope for the best to MAMA AWS. And i am also hoping the best for the newbies. AWS is a good company and will always be (on my mind). I am also looking forwad sa akong new endeavor, everything i learned sa AWS, i will surely share sa uban and hoping to learn new thing pud para char lang.
