Work Relationship 

U know, I feel kinda bad that a colleague of mine feels bad cos he promised his dealer to deliver stuff to them (if I don't go over). It's not his product, but mine. So if anything, it'd be right for me to go over instead of him. Both my colleague and the dealer are really nice people. =(


Thing is, I DIDN'T promise the dealer to go over, and I didn't make any appointment to go see them either. But this colleague of mine (also one of my lunch partners) said he would (to the dealer) if I didn't. Even though I tried calling the dealer to tell them to come pick up their stuff at our warehouse themselves (cos the amount they ordered was insufficient to send out), they kinda expected someone to deliver it to them anyhow. So now, I feel bad for my colleague cos he ended up being the one dealers depend on. =(


And I think my colleague is kinda pissed off as well. At who or what, I dunno. But hopefully he won't stay angry.... Or I'd get my head bitten off, i think... =P

Finding fixed lunch partners at work 

Hi all, just popped by to say HIIII (nearly spelled popped as pooped)! :P


Nothing interesting to share now cos I need my precious sleep! ZzzZz.


Oh, actually I do have some brief updates before I head to bed.... I'm working everyday now! *sigh*. I need the money, so I'm working part time during the weekends as well. It's been really tiring, and I miss sleeping in on weekends! Oh well.....


Boss is still the same. Gets irritating sometimes. But I've got no choice. If I like my job, then I gotta put up with the "side nonsense". At least she sometimes KINDA cares bout her subordinates in her weird ways. (Which ppl dun get at times). (Sigh).


Apart from that, my lunch buddies at work are still not fixed. But I changed group now. Hopefully this gang'll be my lunch gang. They're younger. They're all guys though. And one of the guy there especially likes to tease me. My goodness! (he's married, ok). And he is so corrupted la. But SO very random & funny! HAHAHAha...


Ok, better go off now before I start surfing the net and become more & more alert. I'll regret that tomorrow, when I lack my precious sleep..... =P

People at work 

I'm not well but I'm not sleeping yet. First was cos I couldn't sleep. And now, it's cos the internet's so slow here!! No, I haven't subscribed to any internet services yet, it's my dad's CACATED 3G connection thingy. Which is annoying. But..... at least I get to online a bit la... So can't complain that much... :P


At this new place I'm working now, I've met different kinds of people. Lotsa women here. And people here are quite... gossipy. Haha. If that's a word. But meah, there're always lotsa gossiping (grapevine, hah) at all work places! Anyway, lemme intro u to a few characters that made a bit more impact to me these 2 mths.


Guy 1: A single man in his 40s, i think. Nice, happy-go-lucky guy. And i think has a heart (crushes) on all 'leng lui's (pretty girls). Haha. Don't get offended, Mr., Ok? :)
Guy 2: Wow. I admire this guy purely because of his gentleman-ness. :)
Guy 3: This guy of higher management level is a joker la. Seems cold at times, but actually he's some kinda joker la. :)
Guy 4: He seems patient & very willing to listen to others' frustrations. Which is good and rare for a (married) guy. =)


Girl 1: This colleague has similar characteristics of mine. So we kinda udrstd each other in some ways. She's really helpful. Patient. Sincere. 'Motherly'. Thankful I got to know her. :)
Girl 2: This person is kinda hard to work with. Doesn't change her approach with ppl (I dunno why) and judges people a lot! She can make your life miserable (especially with her double standards), but at the same time, she's NOT that mean till she bullies. So i guess, may be if she improves her INTERPERSONAL SKILLS then she'd be more likable to others. ;)
Girl 3: She's not bad looking. Quite pretty. But she needs to smile more. For a few weeks I thought she was an unfriendly girl cos she didn't smile. :(


There. I told u a bit more bout my work stuff. I'm satisfied that I did. =)


Psst. If you happen to be one of my colleague and stumbled upon this page, I hope u read this with an open heart. These are not written outta anger and all. Just some general update. Anyway, your identity isn't disclosed la. So chill la.


I can't believe this post wasn't published & remained a "draft" till today (28/6/08)! GRrr.
