My biggest ang pau - Part 2

before you read this part 2,
read part 1 here

Anyway, before chinese new year (CNY), i did ask PETTY if we have any off day because our company is so particular.....about feng shui.... and usually chinaman company distribute bonuses before the reunion dinner as well and ang pau for first day work after cny....i had ask her such question so that i could inform the accounts dept. what to prepare such sum......

WEll, for a start....we did not have any off day.....

We start work on the 3rd day unless we obtained leave...

There is no dinner cause heck...she was going off to Japan for holiday, who needs the dinner when she's not even there feasting it [at least approved us to book a table under company also dun have]

bonus? no need to say lo...i didnt even complete a whole year as a staff, no bonus for me...so i thought maybe a pro-rate would do me good la since i also got contribute towards the project ma....

pro rate also dun have....[sigh]

nevermind la...if that don't have, surely there is a special ang pau for my hard work.....

so i waited...

on the 23rd january PETTY SAID SOMETHING WHICH GOES LIKE THIS " last time when i word, i never expect any ang pau from my boss wan, cause why should any staff be any special from the other, anyway, since i wont be seeing you..Gong xi Fa cai!" and leave she office at 3.15 p.m

OH...MY...GOSH!!...

U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.....that's it? that's her ang pow...?

so after Chinese new year, and some chat with my friends and family , i've decided....

instead of PETTY giving me an ang pau, i should give her one ...

one that requires her to no longer give me any in the future also.....

JENG! JENG! JENG! JENG!

MY BIGGEST ANG POW TO HER ...i resign lo...


apa lagi? (what else) when she came bac, it was still chinese new year ..

PETTY was shocked la,, after explaining to her that i wanted to resign and some stories la that i made up plus all her schemes in conning me to do her project and not getting paid as per package mention...(why?u think i won't tell her ar??)...

i told her that i would not consider staying on.NOT OK?

it was hell to work in a kedekut company..

she handed me an ang pau..inside got RM 50...(i opened it later la of course)

she also mentioned to my colleague that she wanted to give dinner but no time to -re-schedule cause she wanted to give a surprise to everyone ..which i find is SUPER LAME!

AND she would implement thaipusam n federal teritorry as holiday since we not entitled..

pffttt!! People wann leave , PETTY can say any bull sH**T? am i not right??

anyways, i'll be serving my notice and i'll be off for holidays soon.

so dun find me ya in Solaris..but i don't mind if u wanna belanja me Tenji...

I surely will come

What is your biggest ang pow.......

Ever since i've joined the new company here in Solaris, work pretty much sucks... there is saying that goes you cant have both...

both for me means a good pay, the other would be a good boss,

My previous job had me a good boss, but i work like a cow, monday to friday, half day on saturday, sometimes i have sms coming to me at night to remind me of the task i need to do tomorrow from my boss when i was bac in my old firm. however, the boss would make it up by buying me some fancy lunch or tea break. (i'm so easily satiesfied ...haiz....)

In a way, he was very nice...i guess it must be the feeling or remorse over the salary he had issues every month.... he must must had known that i knew about his monthly expenses that cost 4 times my salary....

anyways, after being working like a cow for more than 2 years or so, i finally call it quit and i moved on..... here to solaris, mont kiara......for a higher salary...
not that high but high enough for my monthly expenses la....i'm not director or ceo..how much salary u think i will have???

thus the saying, you cant have both...my current boss...let's give HER a name..PETTY ...is the most calculative, stingy, indecisive, crazy, pathetic, moody ,insane, boss one can ever have....

i've been here for 6 months and i think PETTY is starting to get on my nerves,

She gives instruction like a police officer, with a squeaky tone.....
its really scary.....

In the beginning Petty looks like every ordinary lady boss who is eager for you to join their firm, in the interview, she would suggest cool hang out places in solaris and that you will be appraise once you've completed the project,and i only work 5 days, monday to friday, i get to go oversea and everything is been paid for, meal, accomodation,blah blah blah.... or even better u get to override the commission if the project is good....

my oh my.....i was naive...and the terms n conditions were too good to be true....it was as sexy as my backside,i tell u...i mean the terms were attractive....of course i accepted the offer without hesitation.....

only to find out that my first asignment to kk, not only she paid for my expenses but she also provide me with a roomie, which is one of her sales staff to share room wid me...she also provided breakfast but not in the hotel, at the sum not more than RM 8 in whereever place i wanna eat and whatever extra that i cannot claim.....

pretty impressive right!..the overridding commission was more impressive, it seems that there was a threshold in obtaining it, that the sales team would close the deal, and i would only overide half of half..means not even enough to buy toothbrush n tootpaste...

whats worse, PETTY actually complained to one of my colleague that i'm calculative for submitting my claims....that is the paling hebat sekali....

Anyway, before chinese new year (CNY), i did ask PETTY if we have any off day because our company is so particular.....about feng shui.... and usually chinaman company distribute bonuses before the reunion dinner as well and ang pau for first day work after cny....i had ask her such question so that i could inform the accounts dept. what to prepare such sum......

WEll, for a start....we did not have any off day.....

We start work on the 3rd day unless we obtained leave...

the reunion dinner and and pau??


Guess what was her reply?

To be continued.........

Can life be more boring than playing free cell in office?

the time 17.57 pm...

And I’m figuring out if I should move the seven hearts above so that I can have allowance to move my queen….

I was playing free cell a minute ago and I could not find any better reason to start work despite its almost the end of the day……..

Though working in solaris is much fun especially when the sun sets, basically coping the day time in office totally sucks…especially when there is

No bonus.

No increment.

No performance appraisal.

No bonus leave.

No annual trips.

No hoi kong makan ( you usually have this lunch/dinner for chinaman company)

No free lunch.

No big ang pau..

Need I say more????

The Day You Went Away

Well I wonder could it be
When I was dreaming 'bout you baby
You were dreaming of me

Call me crazy, call me blind
To still be suffering is stupid
After all of this time

Did I lose my love to someone better
And does she love you like I do
I do, you know I really really do

Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

I remember date and time
September twenty second
Sunday twenty five after nine
In the doorway with your case
No longer shouting at each other
There were tears on our faces

And we were letting go of something special
Something we'll never have again
I know, I guess I really really know

Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

The day you went away
The day you went away

Did I lose my love to someone better
And does she love you like I do
I do, you know I really really do

Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

Why do we never know
What we've got 'til it's gone
How could I carry on
The day you went away
Cause I've been missing you
So much I have to say
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

The day you went away
The day you went away

working or chillin'?

“ fancy place” that was what one my closest friend told me when I told him where I worked.

The only office suite beside plaza Mont Kiara would have to be Solaris, developed by Sunrise of course. I’m not a fan of Mont Kiara but my new work place somehow ended up here in Solaris. Loads of franchise here like haagen daz, ole-ole bali, garage, Michelangelo, fancy Korean and Japanese restaurant; not to mentioned that the night life is quite happening with the existing pub around the corner. Then again, the parking here is really terrible, people would park anywhere, everywhere as long there is a space, even though there are ample parking space in the basement.

I somehow find Malaysian people quite amusing because these people can be driving a beemer, a Toyota alphrad and not to mentioned the fancy S- Class Merc which are very expensive to be found double park everywhere in solaris, risking their cars to scratches and dust when all they have to do is pay a fixed RM 1 for a basement parking.

Ever since my first day here in Solaris, I’ve been eating very blah food here because not only the food are expensive, they are also tasteless. I really miss “chap Fun” (mixed rice ) where you have a balance of vegetables, meat and variety of drinks. Anyone wanna open up a restaurant here selling CHAP Fun? I really can guarantee return because the office crowd here is really amazing. Or Japanese food like bento set is not too bad too….i’ve been visiting this Japanese restaurant here in Solaris ever since they offer the Japanese set lunch, its as good as inchi-ban in Hartamas.

Speaking of food, I feel like getting myself a quick caffeine fix now, starbucks or coffeebean? Did I also mentioned that you can choose between o ‘briens, coffee bean or starbucks? It may not be an ultimate place to work, but its sure an ultimate place to run away from a while if you dun wanna be at work.

Gotta run now..appointment at killiney kopitiam…

Invest in Australian dollar!

Today the Australian dollar went down, I spent my hours in the day time chauffeuring my boss to exchange cash, her sources tell her that never in history that the dollar had drop so much and if any of you who are planning to go there, dun wait and go exchange now…

Even After a few hours of driving from bank to bank cashing out monies and changing into aus, the dollar went slightly up, so if any of you have extra cash in hand, jus go n play a little while, but please do not indulge in to forex. It’s always a no-no! and no offence to those who are playing.

Anyone know the reason why it drop so much? ….no seriously, I dun know..please update me if you guys have info…

Need to update more often!

Ever since taking up this new job, I realise that I haven’t got the time to blog and my blog looks like its covered with spider perhaps layered of dust. To add things worse, there isn’t any access to broadband because I’m been travelling quite often. Time past really fast and i noticed that my blog has been left idle for 3 months.

There were times when I was waiting at the lounge after checking- in the airport, I’ve been inspired by the people around me doing their thing and I really wanted to blog about life and how each individual is so caught up doing their thing. But everytime after the flight, my draft will continue to stay at the draft inbox and never really make it to the post that I wanted to blog about.

Anyways, I would like to give a big shout out to all my Muslims friends “ Selamat Hari Raya maaf Zahir batin” and remember to give me a call cause I love eating rending… ok kidding..but if you do open house, call me k?..lol

Also, my next trip would be in east Malaysia, K.K, so any of you guys who are going to be there, please gimme a call, we go eat scrumptious seafood k?.. the locals said that the seafood in K.K is really good and really cheap….

On the other hand…….the market for property has been very slow lately, that’s is why I have some time to blog, which does not sounds like a good news. Many investors who previously bought property are now selling off their property because they wanna have more cash in hand, which means there is now more supply than demand. Also, the increase price in petrol and everything is not helping any better….but then again, if you have ample amount of cash, the right time to buy is now cause after recession, people will start to buy property again, and the price will go up and you have high possibility selling off your property at a later market and reap a return for 100% in the near future. Then again, its all my prediction. ..lets come back to this post and check out again if my prediction were true. : p....gotta work now, i'll update you guys with my recent awesome shopping trip to bangkok as well as what gwailos do when they are there...
