my drama life

the last time when i blogged, i think my HOD, kings just tendered and have not left the co. now he has left. the dept is now left with only me and sosy.

sosy got the nick name from hy. so so and lousy. she is now full of crap. as usual, giving excuses of having headache, car need to send for svc etc and need to take half day lah. etc. always when ah gong not around. it's not fair to me, to the company. even other ppl from other ppl can tell that she is always not around or always spaced out.

even my ex am can see that when we met up with her for biz. haiz.

now the office is full of drama.we have to update GQ by ourselves. with ah gong's presence of course. and sosy being so stupid, has gotten scolding twice. i hope i will not get scolding from GQ.

ah gong is trying to be funny. heard that he has been telling ppl that i am efficient and good worker etc. i think he has even spoken to grp ceo and gq on think. even the thai and malaysia head too.

this makes my life more difficult i feel. coz ppl now have higher expectation of me. now it seems like i cant make mistakes, cant show signs of weaknesses.

before kings left, ah gong even tried to use a promotion to am to tempt me to stay. he is one strange fella, trying to find out whether we noe where kings is going to.

now some ppl already heard rumours where kings is heading to. we have to act as if we dont know where he going. sosy being so stupid, i gotta tell her very explicitly that we muz act blur till the day we die.

anyway, think she wont last long. my mum and my ex am thinks so too. who will forget her laptop when comes to work?? this is already the second time already. one time when kings was still around, one time was last fri.

i'm indeed quite fed up with her behaviour.

well let's c what happens next.

anyway, the replacement for my HOD wont come so soon. given it's end of the end, ppl may want to wait for bonus, gotta serve notice. so it looks like the new boss will come in early next year.

even my fren doesnt understand why my previous job so messy le, this job is also messy still. indeed level up le.

i'll stay and endure. if they give me the promotion, good, this shall be a stepping stone. i'll endure for a certain period. to show that i can do it. to move on for a better position elsewhere.

from now, i have to watch every step, watch my back. plan my steps carefully. cant make mistakes. coz other ppl are waiting for us to fail.

5 months and counting

the last time i wrote here, it was my 2nd last day in my previous job. national day marks my 5th mth in this new co, BT. time flies isnt it.

the initial phase was really not easy. coz in my previous co, everything can be decided by my md. if there's anything to seek clearance, i can go to him direct and in person.

but here, there's so many layers to clear. to get a document signed, it needs to go through 4 other ppl, not even counting in our dept. getting cheques done was tough and takes long time. took such long time that i could not get used to it in the initial stage. called finance to chase for it and get scolding etc.

i tot i wont be able to last more than 3 mths. but i did.

another difficult bit is the location of office. ulu, dirty, smelly building. inconvenient location. if i need to go out for meetings, i cant claim taxi. but the company has some transport allowance of $100. if i take cab all the time, that's not enough.

and last time if i am bored, i can just go walk around in the mall. but this ulu place has got no where for me to walk to. plus it's really boring to stay in office all day. seldom get to go for meetings. but really, have gotten used to it.

i dont know how long can i last here. but i think if i want to, i should be able to survive here.

but now it's for me to decide where do i move on.to stay in f&b? starbucks would be cool. or go into retail like wingtai? or go back to a landlord? as leasing? as a&p? if leasing, the mkt doesnt seem too easy.

EO has just joined frasers as a&p. but she too needs time to adapt. so many layers to clear. NY joined and left KF. and now w 3**. may be leaving too.. intending to start her own biz le. SL suffering under SK. SK, the golden girl giving her hell. more drama happening in my ex company. i wonder what md is planning. heard md had a fight with SK. stupid woman.

my heart goes out to SL and md. but i have chosen to abandon ship. if i stayed, i'll be suffering with them.. but NY, EO and me agreed, we were a good combination and could work perfectly together. wished we can still be colleagues..

leaving a chapter behind and moving towards the next chapter

it's been more than half a year since i last wrote an entry here. coming back to write an entry to preserve my memory here. in case, 1 day, i may forget.

This past few months was not easy. many things happened at work, many ppl doing 'extra' things etc etc. EO leaving the company etc etc.

made the decision to quit somewhere mid-jan. mgr din accept. so i took back my letter for the time being. but continued to look for a job. eventually found a new job. struggled thru the cny break. choosing between leaving/staying, choosing between a&p/leasing.

nt an easy decision to make. but i eventually made my choice after talking to so many ppl.

tomorrow will be my last day at the current company. where i learnt, grew, make new frenz, make new enemies, suffered but at one time was happy and thought that i had the best job in the world.

reflecting back, sometimes, i wonder how come i can gather such strength to decide to move on. yet, a sms fr H yesterday made my tears drop again. hope i'll not cry again tmr. i cant be forever a cry baby.

so, i'll be moving on to a new chapter. will be having a short break before starting at the new place.

going to phuket w hy. original plan was to go bkk. but hy's parents were concerned that riots may break out when we are there, so we had to change plans.

looks like phuket will be fun. hope i'll have a chance to do snorkelling!

hope the new chapter will be good. temporary nickname for my new boss "king" coz "king" forms part of his name. hee.. i'll be tweeting away as usual...

emo week

past wk was horrible. lots of minor minor things at work.

major thing was that my fellow executie colleague from the dept has tendered. yup, that's the one who's also from real estate. v sad. coz we pretty close. and damn sian w that news. she joined like maybe about 3 mths b4 me..

she was telling my mgr that one of the contributing factor is coz of the useless fei ren aka gm. fei ren latest new nick is called fei fei. haiz. how fei is he? hard to tell u in a few words.

with her leaving, workload for me, i guess will temporarily increase ba.sian.

was emo till rock bottom. but fri had a dinner w my am, love her to the max.. after talking very long at nelly bar at ms after work both of us felt better. both had thoughts of leaving the co b4. but both of us want to continue coz of the potential of overseas postings. but can i survive that long?

frankly, i didnt expect e to leave so earli. i tot she can last much longer. haiz. frankly, i think all in the dept has tots of leaving. sx fr finance left. c from finance has tots of leaving. wonder how long can c last.

haiz.... i muz keep myself sane. keep reminding myself of the pros and cons. but seriously grass on the other side doesnt seem much greener, yet.

jia you gal.
