Hello, my name is Arisa Buathong or P’Chui. I graduated with a degree in Accounting from Sripatum University. I am currently working at IFS Facility Services Co., Ltd. in the Finance Department. IFS is a leading building services company in Thailand, delivering services designed to meet the needs of our customers in all types of businesses. IFS has served thousands of well-known customers in various business sectors, mainly in terms of services, such as housekeeping services, security services for customers, etc. IFS Facility Services Co., Ltd. also has branches nationwide.
If you ask me how I got to work here, let me first explain that I had the opportunity to do an internship at IFS Company before. During the internship, I can say that I gained a lot of knowledge and experience, such as tax calculation, using Microsoft Dynamics NAV, recording labor debts, receiving trade creditors’ invoices, checking purchase tax reports, recording cash salaries, etc. During my internship, I worked in the Account Payable (AP) department and also learned how to socialize, adapt, and solve various situations by myself. After the internship ended, I received a good opportunity from the company to work as an employee. But let me tell you that at that time, I was both happy and worried at the same time because I was a very panicked and scared person. I was afraid that when I actually started working, would I really be able to do it? Would I be able to do it well? Would I be able to do my best as expected? Would I disappoint them because they offered me the opportunity? I can tell you that at that time, I had a lot on my mind. But when I calmed down and thought it over carefully, I finally made a decision. I decided to do it and do it. I got a position as a Finance Officer. I had to learn new things, but I believe that no matter what happens, the result will be whatever it is if we put our heart into it and do our best. And the results are not as good as we expected. I think we won’t be as disappointed as if we didn’t do it. But if the results are good, we will be very proud of ourselves and will thank ourselves. Because if we don’t do it, throw away this opportunity, don’t dare to face it, and are afraid… afraid of something that hasn’t happened yet and afraid of something that we haven’t even done yet, I think that’s not a good solution. Therefore, I want to encourage those who are facing this problem. I want us to be confident in ourselves, dare to fight, dare to do it. Only by doing will we know what the results will be. No matter what the final results are, we will be proud of ourselves for daring to do it. Because in the end, what teaches us from encountering the hardest problems is that it makes us know that if we can get through it, we will move on to the next level of our lives, and it will definitely be a better level. Keep fighting!
