Inside the conference room of an exquisite building, directors and managers from all the departments were gathered. They were finalizing the list of employees that will be relocated in the Philippines.
"Director Jackson, are you confident that Miss Alcantara can handle the position?"
The Vice president on Administration agenda for this meeting was to verify the capabilities of the selected people on his list to their immediate supervisors. He wanted to hear their answers regarding their skills as they will be the future head employees of the branch.
At first, he was against collaboration. It is a big risk for Sealed Corporation to launch a branch in the Asian market, as it is the most unpredictable market of all to forecast. Trends and stocks in Asia were changing every minute and Asian people can instantly switch their preferences about everything when they see the newest trends online.
Youngsters follow the trends while elders keep what they are accustomed off. These kinds of people are the most difficult to encourage and persuade.
"Yes Mr. Vice-President, Miss Alcantara will surely handle the accounting department by herself. I groomed her to be my next accounting officer but unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to have her as my officer as she will be relocated to a new branch. Likewise, I'm still happy for her. Confidence is 100%, Mr. Vice-President."
Director Jackson was delighted when he heard that one of his team members was chosen to be the Accounting Officer for the Asian-Sealed Corporation. He is happy that his employee, Zoey's friend, submitted an application form on behalf of her. She will represent him as his mentor if she succeeds in handling the said branch.
"Well then, Alcantara will be the Accounting officer to this branch."

On a hot Wednesday afternoon, Zoey was idly laying on the couch while watching The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, she came across this series after catching up Riverdale. She promised herself that she would catch up all the episodes she missed during her vacation.
Her mom once told her that she looked like a layabout for staying all day long in front of the television. However, her parents understand her that it is her only time, her free time, to do this; they just her do what she wants.
While munching her homemade popcorn, Zoey received a series of messages and calls through her email and phone. Irritated from the constant ringing, she paused the show and picked her laptop.
On her mail.

A loud scream startled everyone inside the household. The girl who finished reading the email left dumbfounded on the floor; she cannot believe what she has read. She never expected that her friend who submitted her name got a golden hand for wheels of fate. She is actually selected for the position, and it wasn't just a staff job but an officer. Accounting officer is the same as Director Manager in Sealed Corporation's accounting tree.
Mrs. Alcantara rushed downstairs to aid her screaming daughter; she shook her as she sits on the floor, then asked, "What happened Zoey?"
The girl stared at her mother for about five seconds then uttered, "Mom I got promoted." Zoey nonchalantly mentioned it to her mom as if it didn't bear anything to her nor surprised her.
Hearing what her daughter said, Mrs. Alcantara repeated it as well without any hint the full coverage of the promotion. "It is just a promotion Zoekella, no need to scream like that." Her daughter got promoted many times before. Mrs. Alcantara already got used to this type of news as knew that her daughter deserves it for working really hard. "It is just a piece of evidence that Sealed Corporation appreciate your hard workings. So now, get on the floor and fix yourself."
Zoey holds her mom wrist after standing up from her squatting, cut her from speaking as she continued the news to her mother. "Mom, I'm promoted as an accounting officer of Asian-Sealed Corporation. A branch here, in the Philippines."
Asian-Sealed Corporation isn't a secret to everyone, after spreading the news of the future collaboration, everyone is updated to all the news on the said collaboration. Even Zoey's parents follow the news about it. They even bragged to their friends that their daughter is working in Sealed Corporation's main office.
