.her faculty for composing words of wisdom.
I have not quite settled yet, here... Bits and pieces everywhere. Eversince I shifted, my commitment to work has been extended. No I am not complaining really, I like it here but.. give me a few more months and I'll adapt to the organisation. What they need is a full re-structuring!
My work here has been monotonous, piles of documents to be filed.. I see new faces almost everyday, everytime. The funny thing is, whenever a curious colleague passes by, he will come up to me and have a chat..
"How do I pronouce your name uh?"
"My name tag says it all.. Anah (Anna).. Anah Chupree."
"Oh Anah.. then your family name Chupree ah. so we call you Miss Chupree la"
"No Anah is my name, Chupree is my father's name. I have no surname, first name, second name wotsoeva numbered names"..
"Oh ok, you Indian or Malay?" - kaypoh
"I'm a Javanese, my husband's Indian." - and that makes me a Spanish.. gundooOooo~!
I hate having "small talks" here. It's a waste of time!

Another week at work.. All i can say is that the environment is a bit tensed here.
And the worst thing, internet connection sucks. You'll see me a while in msn and the next moment i'm gone.
Today is supposed to be a special day for mr & mrs towkay. i had the delivery made this afternoon to mrs him but i scribbled the wrong address. I ended up having to fork out $13 charged for express delivery, damn the slightest mistake. No wonder she hasnt called!
Pimp is currently away and i'm home alone. I got my brother to baby sit his cats while i'm out working. And the next few nights, i will bury my head under the quilt...

the moment i stepped into this building i was worried. will i be able to adapt the changes?
my first day at work was totally a hacked off. i was already in at about 8, running thru the list of "what needs to be done" with him. at 9, i had to attend a briefing at HR, and after that new joiners like me were then made to walk down to Robinson Road for orientation... just like a flock of goats; in which i find it stupid as the whole organisation is all over the place!
i had a welcome lunch with him and spit my grievances. i did some unpacking in the office and almost fell out of my seat when i found out that..
- PC not working (recycled)
- current software in use - Windows 2000 (pathetic)
- no sign of dustbin at workstation (we had to steal one somewhere)
- phone with no caller ID facilities (so no more ahh, hmmm, oi, eh..)
- no personal fax, copier & printer (mafan uh)
- no stationery (it's a norm here so we have to steal, borrow, beg)
- so many unfamiliar faces
on another note i get to attend my first meeting with the Head of Property, without him... my overall rating, no doubt the workstation is cosy,
fengshui wise not so good.
on the second day, i felt
handicapped.. i was still without computer and there's not even a telephone directory of the management. so when my phone rang, callers were nameless and the numbers looked 'alien' to me. the day past really fast.
third day came and still no sign of computer. my colleague managed to set it up only in the afternoon.
the best part, i could access to my emails and internet finally... the staff here? i need sometime to familiarise their faces or should i say faeces... hmmm i can see a lot of
apple polishers here.
yesterday was a busy day. i had to run all over the place to get things done. i began to get irritated with my squeeky armchair. too much of fidgeting made my neck tensed. worst still i had to attend class last night and ended up not having enough rest. it was a
bad hair day!!
today is friday and i am trying to digest things real damn slow. and to lighten things up, he placed
def leppard music CD on my desk. followed by
meatloaf after lunch. while he's away for meeting, i finally get to update my dusty blog. the job description i'm handling now is making me a little bit
pinched cause i have to juggle his never ending meetings.
i am hoping to
get my energy replenished this weekend. goodbye and have a nice week ahead..
why do i have to complain when it's not the end of the world...
