From the workstation

Its a busy day today. Its already 5.30pm and here I am sitting by the window of my workstation in the office. What AM I doing here??? It started off as a short day in the shortest month of the year and suddenly it changed when I was about to go home :P

The day started off with some hectic schedule. Its already the end of the month and there are a lot of routine tasks to be completed at this time around. As early as 7.45am, I got the headaches from seeing overdued bills as a result of poor billing process. I wished that I could just take out a lighter and burnt all the bills to ashes.

On with the day, I had to get whatever I wanted to settle before lunch because of some meetings with the managers that came all the way from the states( holiday for them, more work for us). The meeting was scheduled for 4 hours which means that we had no time to do our own stuffs. And so... the rush hour begins!

By the end of the day, things was almost settled. I could go home and sleep peacefully and suddenly.... why... why did I had to go see my supervisor before going hooome??? *slap myself* I went to surrender my company phone because contractors aren't allowed to have company assets...( Wut? Permanent staffs wont cheat the company izzit? Naweh... How to work for you if you dun trust us? Why bother hiring contractors then?) So anyway, I was dragged into some late night conference by my team lead =.= The meeting won't start till 9pm so here I am... by the window of my room looking out at KLCC, ppl walking home while I rant, whine about staying back! Its a good thing they granted me Internet else I will really turn into stone. I didn't had access to the internet until recently... YUP! what company does not have internet huh??? Mine... =.=

Let's try some self comfort here... Its really nice being in the office. I have half the room and the view is great! I get the feel of a manager's office. The only thing that brings me back to reality is my scrawny pay I get each month and I get bossed around :P Wish I had a camera with me so I can upload some photos here to show you what I am talking about. Then again, my computer's security is so tight, its hard to be called a PC... should be labelled as dummy workstation!

Yes... why are we all rushing for work? Why do they managers bother to visit from the states? We are having a teambuilding!!!! YAy!!.... again... for the nth time in my 8 months in the company. Anyway, I am heading off to Genting tomorrow for the teambuilding. I'll make sure I squeeze whatever I can from this trip for making me staying back today~ wakakaka

The story of a toothpaste...

Recently heard of this story from one of my colleague at work. She said there was this couple that they know of, married many years who actually divorced over a tube of TOOTHPASTE!. You know its common that some people like to squeeze at the very top end of the paste as it is convenient to do so. Then, there's the neat freak that likes to squeeze the tube at the lower end so that they can push the toothpaste all the way up. So in this case, the wife was a neat freak and the husband just couldn't be bothered on where its squeezed. So this happened too many times over their marriage and the wife was unhappy about it. She told him to follow her and the husband said "OK!, OK!". Alas, the OKs turned to KO because old habits die hard. They got upset on each other and quarreled on many other small things. In the end? They met at where they started their lives together. The law firm...
