Jakarta January 2rd 2019, I signed the contract as a non-ASN employee at BPN South Jakarta at the

same time as there are still 3 Java island tours remaining in February and one show in Makassar in
March with the Caramel Band that must be completed. This is my first time as an office employee
after 7 years of not using the diploma that i got from 2012. FYI Caramel Band is the band that first
coined the term "viral" with its song known as "Gaby's Song",

The third day after starting to tap my fingers on the keyboard with non-tonal letters, emotional
turmoil began to emerge because of the unusual feelings in the office which people said was a
culture shock.

So I started making communications via calls and WhatsApp chats to my sister, to tell her I wanted to
quit this new role under the guise of my inability to adapt and scapegoating culture shock. My sister
responded by blocking my number for two months.

trying to adapt to this new role, I started to live it slowly. At that time we were working on President
Jokowi's strategic program, namely PTSL, while still playing bass and making money from it at
another time

I considered hid my self-concept as a bass player, but in the 6th month, the section head asked me to
join the band and I didn't know where he got the information.

2019 was the first year we took part in Hantaru (a prestigious competition between ATR/BPN
Ministry employees) but we didn't win, in 2021 we won this competition with pride, We are the
champion

September 2023 in Bali, whatsApp beep, a pdf file was sent containing Wekoila's name registered
with BKN as an ASN at the Ministry of ATR/BPN, God told me to continue being a public servant
through this Institute while continuing to work with music.

So, this is I am or who am I ? an OfficeMusician
