Keja, Arsenik & aku.

Dah lama tak menghapdet blog. Busy, malas, tak de benda nak citer... Entahla. Sekarang nih otak tengah bercelaru. Banyak sangat keja, tak tau nak start macamane. Kerja yang tak suka pun ada, keja yang kena push kat aku pun ada. Lepas nih nak transfer department lagi. Lagi menimbun keja. Keja, keja, keja.

Semalam menghadap Yang Dipertuan Agung sekali lagi. Arituh sebelum gi KL, pun mengadap baginda Sultan. Kitaorang kena titah beramai2. Hatta hamba yang tak berdosa pun kena jugak. Begitulah murkanya baginda.

Kali nih, baginda Sultan bagi keja yang paling aku tak peveret. Kalau aku suka keje tu, aku tak yah keja bawah dia, aku boleh dapat jawatan setaraf ngan dia. Tapi aku tolak, sebab aku memang tak suka keja tu. Alergik dan menyampah ngan keja tu.

Dia bagi aku deadline sampai arinih. Projek Trump tak de progres lagi. Aku macam nak pecah kepala pikir solution. Memang tak bley pikir sehari. Tapi nak pikir camane method nak complete projek nih pun dah sampai panas CPU aku. Semalam dah ‘hang’.

(Perbualan masa lunch semalam)
Ainie : You order apa?
Aku : Arsenik.
Ainie : Jangan memain la. Lamanya order you?
Aku: Kena amik dari Department of Chemical. Korang ingat diorang serve arsenik hari2?

Aku dan Jane bersuka-ria email:

Jane : So happy that I have been working since 6am and will be extended maybe until 9 or 10 or even longer. Plenty of time to finish my report by tomorrow morning... hurray...

Me: Waliowww! I share your enthusiasm in finishing your report. Your happiness in working overtime spilt over to our side and your email sparkled with so much laughter and joy. Do pursuit your objective to shine in your career path, dearie. Put out that negative attitude, and instil more positive feelings towards your learning experience. Remember, God is with you.

Jane: I can't wait to get more and more work to do... to kill my time effective and beneficially! I am going to force my boss and ex boss to squeeze me till I dry... It's going to be very enjoyable... Yuuuu... Huuu... those paperwork that piling on my table is never enough... I want more and more and more... I wanna be the best staff this year! The best contributing staff on earth that they ever hired... Hehehe... so damn happy... Hahaha... Got too excited due to lack of sleep and long hours of working... that's a thriller for me...

Me: WAAAAAAHHHH!!! So much joy! I'm blinded with tears now... It is so nice to see that you have changed your outlook on your job, dearie...

Jane: Hahahaha... Remember... we must always "fertilize" the system! :D :D I must do my part to make it happens...

Me: Yes, that's right dearie. Don't poison or attempt to bring down the system. Negative feelings will only feed arsenic into the whole organization. Familiarity breeds contempt, they say. I say pessimism breeds contempt. Contempt mutates into arsenic. Arsenic kills you. Instantly. Obsessed with arsenic oledi.

(Peringatan: Arsenik nih bukanlah sebab aku nih suicidal, tapi utk mengekspresi betapa menyampahnya aku ngan keja aku sekarang & aku nak exit sistem nih secepat mungkin.)

Mission Impossible Possible.

I just came back from training in PJ. It was highly informative, not a waste of time as I thought. Anyway, I'm given a new task to do.

To create a new inventory tracking system. As Trump discussed it with me,

'How do I know, that when I pay for all these stuffs, they are used strictly for office purposes?'
Blank expression on my face.
'I mean, ' He rephrased, 'they are not pilfered, or abused, or used for personal reasons? For example,' (he flicked the list for me to see the huge amount it costed him)

'When a staff ordered 3 printer cartridges, he actually ordered them strictly for office printers, and not steal one of them to be sold or used at home?'

Great heavens. It's like asking me how to give candies to children and ask them not to eat 'em. Or give an F1 car to Schumacher and ask him to drive at 60 km/h. OK. Printer cartridge is fine. I can ask the requester to turn in the empty cartridge as proof to purchase another cartridge. But what about little things like pens, pencils, erasers, PAPERS??

Sensing my indignant brain processing 'WHAT DA...?' neorons, he added,

'If you come up with a good system, I'll confirm you immediately.'

Sigh. What are employees for but to do the impossibles?

Any suggestions, guys?

Messing with Design

Dah lama tak mendesign2 aper2. Otak dah kering maa... Oh, well. Yang nih aku buat masa tak leh tido. Spiral flower, aku namakan bendalah nih. Nilah scrawling yang aku paling suke buat klu aku tgh dlm lecture yang boring, tgh kene lecture, dlm meeting yg bosan, dsb. Sejak bile, ek? Hmm... Sejak 2nd year kot. Masa tu aku memang suke wat sketching. OK la. Tadah!

Besh tak? ;)

Just To Cap This Week

Things are really hectic this week. What with the interview going on, and then an unfortunate thing happened to one of our staff. A fire broke out and destroyed her house, leaving her without anything. So we had to help her out by organizing a committee and facilitating the donation collection, etc.

We also had a solat hajat last night as many unfortunate things happened to us of late. Today, we had visitors from Singapore and were kept awfully busy attending to them. They came quite late, explaining why I'm still at the office even though it ended a few hours ago... Jen had to present and she didn't sleep until 4 am to prepare for that. In the end, everything went smoothly ;)

Ok. I'll have to stop. Feeling really exhausted. Need a good rest.

Oh, eh, lupa plak. Apasal sumer orang sibuk nak kawen je sejak kebelakangan nih? Tak paham aku. Tadi gi blog Didiz, dier pun dah berura2 'ke arah itu'. Didiz, jangan lupa jemput aku! Aku yg selalu rekemenkan kompeni ko. Keskeskes..! ;)

Aku respek kat Didiz pasal dier sorang yang berjiwa entrepeneur & usahawan Melayu muda yang berjaya. So far, aku dengar dier dah ada 2 kompeni design. Kalau nak mintak dier buat keja2 design-mendesign nih, gi lah laman web http://www.lassodesign.com . Semoga lepas aku promote nih, kemungkinan utk mendapat kad jemputan kawen dier akan lebih cerah. Muahahaha!!

Lepas tuh, dua orang lagi member kat opis nih nak menamatkan zaman kegemilangan diaorang tak lama lagi. Dua2 orang Penang. Sorang tu akan berkahwin ngan gadis Pakistan minggu depan (jauh tu...) n akan berangkat ke sana tak lama lagi. I'm sure she's someone nice, we all think so ;) and sorang lagi akan kawen ngan mamat 'Ganu bulan depan. Sibuk dah suruh kitaorang tempah tiket AirAsia ke Penang.

Depa nih sumer dah nak kawen, menjadikan aku terasa semakin tuerr... Mula2 masuk Uni, orang panggil 'adik'. Dah final year, orang panggil 'akak'. Tak lama lagi orang panggil 'aunty' plak ke?? Waaahhhh!!! Bila ntah nak insaf...
