Sianz

I decided today that i will not renew my contract with the dreaded organisation that i am with when my term with them is due. My boss obsession with micro-managing us is just so infuriating. Before you start thinking that i am yet one of those fresh grad who's not used to the pressure of the rat race, i thad better affix my own discliamer.

I am no fresh grad and this is definitely not my first encounter with picky bosses..so i guess the real reason is that i am not exactly in love with my job but its mainly b'cos my bosses are always splitting hairs that i feel sick of doing what i am doing..

When can i ever find that one job that i like and can remain doing for the rest of my life?

Jeepers Creepers!!

I suddenly realised that in the workplace, people are by default hypocritical.
I was in discussion with my boss about what corporate gifts to indent. The gifts all looked hideous and 'orbit' but i actually went with her to choose this disgusting design. It made me feel kinda sad but i knew that it was for survival. I know my boss too well, anyone who disagrees with her would get a taste of hell. I am smarter than that..

Really sianz of work oredi..think i really got a lazy bone in me. To think that i actually had the audacity to call Jeff 'lazy bones'. Like other pampered Singaporean, i hope to bag that cushy job which pays well. A job like what Alan's friends does would be ideal. The Dip holder's got a 5K salary and the company actually pays for his meals and transport. Dumb! I wonder why the company hasn't closed down yet.

Oh well, life's not a bed of roses anyway. I am just hoping that's its a bed of chrysanthenum..hee.

Sad fren..

At about 10-ish this morning, i rec'd an email from Rabbit toh asking our gang of friends to go read Lao da's blog. He mentioned briefly that he's kinda down but did not give much details. I assumed it was prob something to do with his results cos i heard frm rabbit that he din do too well.

Lo and behold, when i read his entries on his blog site, i was surprised to see a side of Lao da which i never knew. Bui Alan calls his entries poetic! But more importantly, he told us a sad story of how his gf had left him. He seemed really depressed and it was something that i was quite expecting. he had always been a person who took things in his stride. I'd known him for 10 over years and i have never seen him cry. It shocked me to know that he actually cried for the women who left him.

Having being through a few relationships myself, i can totally relate to the hurt that he's experiencing. Friends who read, pls, don't ever tell someone who had just been dumped that everything's gonna be alright. Its not, ok! For goodness sake, someone whom we have held dear to our hearts has decide to exit from our lives forever. How can it be alright! It may sound cliche but honestly, the only thing that we can do is to leave them alone. Give them some space and time to sort things out! Be there for them if they need us, that's bout it.

Lao da, let us know when u r done getting over ure princess yah.
