+0.68%. I have waited very very long for this counter to move but it just seemingly wouldn’t go beyond 1.48 to my great frustration. Nevermind, it is more important to take profit.

A Bum for a Day

July 28th, 2010

I suddenly felt so lost yesterday. All this while, I have immersed myself in work and everything came to a halt yesterday. I didn’t have to work anymore. Everything was in order and everything was smooth.

As I eagerly await my new challenge in life, I am fully aware I have ample time to re-charge before I return to the workforce.

Maybe I will just have to re-adjust and get used to idling.

Work Memories

July 28th, 2010

It’s coming to 3 years…. and it is coming to an end for me. It hasn’t been easy for me or anyone else in this trade. It is a meaningful job on the whole, forgetting the little unhappiness that comes as and when.

It would be difficult for me to just act nonchalent and move on as I have built a bond with the people who are in it with me over the years. This is especially so when my buddy has chosen the same time to move on and we will together, leave behind a huge “legacy” for the rest to follow up. I felt a little guility on my part but what’s done cannot be undone.

I did enjoy this job very much but I am fully aware this ain’t something I can do for the rest of my life. Perhaps one day, I would come back and do it again….. I don’t know. At this point in time, I am happy to move on to my new challenge.

I’ve seen much during this period. The feeling of being able to help the needy is what that keeps me going in this job for sure. Over the years, I have grown stronger. My encounters with the needy have somewhat made me realise how lucky I am. I have grown to be more careful with money and I am really thankful of what I have now.

I just thought I would keep a little more memory of the people around me before they diminished…….

LKY
LKY is my mentor, someone whom I respected and relate closely to. She is a important person to me and what probably earns my respect is her dynamic personality and her ability to stick by her principles at all times. I guess you can call it stubborn to certain extend….. kinda similar to me.

Initially I thought she was younger than me until I saw her IC number. Hahahaa….. NO joke, she is 8 years my senior.

Ms Tofu Heart
Ms Tofu was my neighbour at work. This first word that comes to mind about her is “positive”. God knows what keeps her so positive daily. She has been a thoughtful and nice friend, although she likes to argue with me a lot. A very very nice person to talk to. :) I recall I used to bully her a fair bit. I have reflected on it but I have forgiven myself. Hahahaaaa.

I don’t get to see her much these days as I have shifted. We are colleagues by chance, but friends by choice. :) Anyway, my jokes and lies are harmless! Don’t take it to heart!

Ms Bibi
Ms Bibi is one hell of a troublesome lady. LOL. I got to know her better when she was assigned to be my buddy at work. She is pessimistic by nature and always thinks of the bad side of things. She is forever hiding from the sun. I recall walking down Chatuchak market, Bangkok with her and she is all nicely covered with sleeved clothes, umbrella and a mask. LOL. I think I have somehow ended up becoming her relationship consultant. Hahaha, Anyway I sincerely hope everything work out nicely for her.

LTC
LTC joined the organisation 3 days ahead of me, and he is leaving together with me. I found him to be a rather impetious person who is always looking to “right the wrong”. LOL. A great friend he has turned out to be. I would cherished the times we take a chee cheong fun break and our discussion on the “walking flexibles” together. Hope your career scale to greater heights! :) Remember, the sky is the limit.

Ms Gooooo
Nope, her surname is not Gooooo. Just that she is born in 1985, the year of the Bull that’s why we ended up calling her that. LOL. Her pleasant personality coupled with her sunshine smile never fails to cheer me and LTC up when we are feeling down. A truly positive girl who forsakes a higher salary so that she could help people. I am truly impressed. I would certainly missed our lunch jokes.

Rash
Rash has to be one of the smartest lady I’ve known to date. She always has her way of making things happen. IQ? EQ? She has everything. It is impossible to make her angry! Can’t beat the mother? Take it out on the son. Next time round, I’ll make the boy cry again. Hahahahaaa……

Big Sister
Big sister will go down as one of the most caring person I have known in this organisation. Very very sister like and a potential cash cow in the making. If only she could do some charitable work for her little brother here. :)

King Raja
I call him King Raja because of a statement he has engraved deeply in me – “Customer is king, without them, we will all be out of jobs”. Great motivational statement in my opinion, but I guess he has failed to realised something – we ain’t dealing with customers. :) Personally, I shared a love hate relationship with this man cos he sort of make and break me. I don’t get to see him much nowadays but I do respect him to a certain extend for his insights. There isn’t anything I can do for him but I sincerely pray he retires peacefully soon.

SF
SF is my ex-boss. She is someone I didn’t quite see eye to eye with, even until today. She is guilty of favortism for sure and often makes dubious decisions that always leave everyone mad. What really saddens me is her admiration for bootlickers. She reminds me of the ancient emperors that we often see on TV. Those who live in oblivion and are totally unaware of the daily happenings. Ultimately, the reign comes to an end and someone else takes over at the helm……..

Spider
Spider is my big boss. Why is he called spider? Cos he wears a spiderman jacket! I thought he looked kinda comical. LOL. Just thinking about it and typing this posting makes me laugh. Spider has been a great leader, a people centric person and a reasonable person to speak of. He gave me a lifeline when I was at my lowest point and I was very grateful to him for that. Thank you for everything and I hope you take the team to a greater heights.

Ms Adam
Ms Adam will go down in my memory to be the most sincere person I’ve known in this organisation. I do enjoy talking nonsense to her expecially when I am bored with work. If you need to talk to someone and you want to get an outright honest answer, she is the person to talk to.

Laffing Buddha
Laffing Buddha is my buddy. I don’t really talk much with him until we shifted office and he was seated beside me. He is well liked by everyone for his cheerfulness and willingness to help the people around him. He offers me snacks or drinks everyday. LOL. At the time of this post, the laffing buddha is probably laffing too as he is also planning his escape route.

Nag Lee
Nag Lee will go down as the most passionate person I’ve met in this organisation. His drive and optimism is something I really admire about him. Irregardless of how busy he is, he does everything with great passion and with a bright smile. I recall a few occasions I saw him volunteering to take on more cases…. volunteering for this and for that, etc. Ultimately, I think he is set for a path….. not for a path of riches, but for a path of no return.

BTW, why is he called Nag Lee? Cos he has the ultimate potential to nag until his clients withdraw! Way to go champ!

Wierdo
Wierdo is someone I want to forget for sure. He is one hell of a sick a**. A father to a young daughter, a marriage on the rocks and here he is working his a** off day and night for a lost cause. His work has no cause for urgency but yet he comes in almost every weekend and buries himself in work. Mad man belong to the asylum.

Mr Bank
Mr Bank is another sicko. His mannerism leads me to think that he is a SAF 302 but that ain’t important. What’s most important is the fact that he sleeps over in the office daily and works super long hours like a bull and he still cannot finish his work!

Mr K
Mr K could have gone on to become a good friend of mine but his open nature of revealing the secrets of other people scares me.

Ms Sunshine
Ms Sunshine is a gem to the organisation. Her optimism and bright smile never fails to liven up any sunken day. i have always see her as a potential motivational talker. She’s my pick to rise the ranks of riches.

Mr Perfect
I sum up my long lengthy article with this man. Mr Perfect would go down as one of the toughest individual I have ever crossed path with. He is a talker, a thinker, a political animal, a survivor and a winner. Little wonder he is up there. I don’t really mingle much with him. I rather leave him alone. He is too scary for me.
