Job Scope: Checked!
Job Hours: Fucked up but Checked!
Colleagues: 1st week: Checked! 2nd week: one on MC but still Checked!
3rd week: quit + quit + don't come cos 'broke' CHECKED! and when I mean 'broke' its because she dun get paid for her work.
When do I get paid: came in late but still Checked!
Whether the bloody cheque gets cleared um... um.... um...... in ffxi terms {I don't know how to
answer that question.}
To most people, starting a new job means a new experience, a new excitement, but as you work and as the week goes by you start to hear things on the phone like:
"Hi, I'm calling from so and so carpark, its regarding the cheque that was given to us for the season parking. The cheque has been bounced! Is there anyone I can talk to?"
or
"Hi, can I speak to so and so?"
"May I know what is this regarding?"
"Its regarding a cheque that you guys are supposed to send to me 2 months ago and why until now I haven't receive?"
or
"YOUR BOSS HAS BEEN TRYING TO AVOID ME FOR MONTHS REGARDING A REFUND THAT HE IS SUPPOSED TO SEND ME! WHY IS HE AVOIDING MY CALLS AND WHY DOESN'T PAY ME? ITS JUST A MEASELY SUM OF 400 DOLLARS? YOU BETTER TELL HIM HE BETTER PAY OR I'LL TAKE HIM TO COURT AGAIN!!" *puts down the phone*
or
In just one day alone, 10 to 8pm, every other hour you hear the same customer calling. Calling for the same reason.
or
You find that when you step into the office, when you try and make a call to somebody, you find the phone lines is cut off, or rather cannot call out. End up you have to make the call through your handphone cos the customer is in front of you and asking a question you are supposed to help with.
What do you think when all these kinda things happen to you at your new job. How would you feel? All this is just between the customer and the boss. But what happens when your boss tells you "Oh we also provide home service! If you have to travel to the customer's house and the price for the journey, we will surely reimburse you!" and then in the next instant your colleague tells you "No matter what, try not to do home service please. Its for your own good. Previously I went liao I come back try and claim for so long still haven't claim ah."
Then pay day for my colleagues comes. Instead of hearing them saying they managed to get paid, you hear them saying "Wah lao, dunno when the boss is going to pay me!! he owe me 2 mths salary le leh. Dunno whether should i come to work tomorrow."
And so the story goes on and on... and thus the title of today's blog. How would you feel when the most basic thing of working for the salary that comes in every month is so vague. How to really 拼 to do your work properly. how to remember every detail for clients you have served when at the back of your mind you are worried whether you are getting paid for the work you put in.
just in case you dunno wat i am writing bout, lol here's the link to something that i studied in poly and studying now in HRM at my school now
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: http://changingminds.org/explanations/needs/maslow.htm
anyway, enuff ranting for now. definitely this is not the whole story that i'm supposed to write but tired lol... getting late into the night. so therefore enuff for tonight.

1st movie review!!! hahaha
Instead of writing something that i'm supposed to continue from my previous post, or writing something about my current work and how much i really dislike my boss's work ethics, or how's my study for my adv. dip and how fucking expensive i paid for the taxi fare to get my arse to my class last monday. But today, i wanna write about a movie that i missed last year and is too good to miss for anyone whos in for a artsy fartsy(hope i spell it correctly) movie. Its one of the few movies that got me thinking, and I'll definitely recommend it to everyone.
Name of movie: Stranger than fiction
When we talk about the actor Will Ferrell, usually we remember him in comedies. Seldom you will see him acting in more serious roles. This show actually brings out another side of the actor showing how well he can act in a more serious role.
This movie is actually about the life of a person. From the time he wakes up in the morning, about how he actually calculates his timing to catch the bus to work, about how he works thru his day at his job, about how his day ends.
But one day while preparing to go to work, he suddenly hears a voice, a voice that actually depicts his actions thru the day, the way he lives, the way subtle changes affect his life, the thoughts that he actually have. And instead of living his life, controlling his own actions and thoughts by oneself, it becomes a life that he's actually living through the thoughts of another person, another person that actually 'narrates' his life. Having someone who actually control what time he eats, how fast he eats, who is he to love, what to do at a certain point in time, and even worse someone who can control when he dies and how he dies.
Scary thought ain't it? Having someone to 'write' your life out. But even when he knows how and when he is gonna die, he embraces it fully, finishing things that he wanted to always do, falling in love with someone that he'll never think of doing cos he's afraid, frightened that it'll be a tragedy.
Well, seems interesting ain't it? Well, I don't know bout you, the person who's reading my blog lol.. dunno if anyone visits my blog anymore since i dun update it that often and much. But if so far whatever i wrote actually interests you, please spend 2 hrs watching this show, its quite an interesting show to watch.
But to be honest, after watching this show, it got me kinda thinking, what happen when one day, you wake up in the morning, doing your routine procedures to go to work, or to school, you suddenly head a voice. A voice that's actually depicting ur every move, your every action, how you gonna live your life and then suddenly as your day goes along, a sentence is 'read' "Little did he/she know that this simple seemingly innocuous act would result in his imminent death." and then somehow you realize that you are gonna die, how soon or in what way that you are gonna kick the bucket you have no idea. And the more important fact is that someone is actually depicting your life in a story he/she is writing or thinking. Wouldn't that fact scare you? or rather knowing that you don't actually have control of your life as you know it. every action you do or thing you say actually affects your 'story' in some way?
hahaha, you might say things like "wtf hahaha why you so free can think of things like that?" or "You are your life's own master, no one else can control it" or "Heck, its just a bloody movie for Christ sakes lol"
Well like i said, its just some of the what ifs that i actually think of. It might not really happen or its just fiction. but somehow i like thinking of things like this. well nonetheless, this movie is definitely worth your 2 hours ^^ so enjoy the show if u are interested ^^.
Btw, happy 10 yrs anniversary to all Hongkongers on the 10th year where HK was returned rightfully back to the Mainland.

爱在这个世界上真的难找吗。。。
不要问我为什么会把这次的Blog大部分都会用华文来写。。。。 可能是因为最近看了太多台湾连戏剧吧。。 像在几天前刚看完《天使情人》或Angel Lover。 我相信我的朋友没几个会去追台湾的连戏剧。。 可是，我对你们说，这部《天使情人》不管是男的还是女的都应该花点时间去看一下下。不看就会变得您的损失。
自从我看完40集的戏时，我想了想一些问题关于爱情，关于在新加坡能否一个人出来独立，或者如果说从小就生长在台湾会不会比较自由，还有很多很多的问题。哈哈哈哈。。。 我那晚刚看完的时候害到我整个晚上睡不着，就是想了很多问题没到凌晨三点钟都还不能入眠。。
这是我生平第一次因为在想一些该算是无聊的问题而睡不着觉。。。。
我是还有很多的想法想写出来。 可是我现在不懂该如何继续写这些想法，可能会分开几个blog来说和写出来吧。。。。。。

ただいま，我回来了，I'm back. I think.
Well its been a while since my last post. The past few months has been hectic..... yeah hectic would be a correct word. The process of searching myself(um... some things have settled but still searching) and most sad thing is the passing of a loved one.
I find myself asking this question sometimes when i watch jdramas or anime, why am i born here instead of japan or somewhere else, where money... isn't looked upon that much... or there are places where i can escape to.. without having to spend tons of money, like in japan where and when u are sick of the city life all you need to do is to head to a station and u can go to the countryside.... escape............................. escape from your family, friends, relatives, who keep asking you, "so wat are you doing now?" "so wat are your plans for the future?" well at least some of them stop after asking that question...... but there are just some 三姑六婆 who says more things after that and all u can do is just feel embarressed and smile and say yes yes.... well.. i've got one thing for u.. u are just my grandma's relative.. not my freaking family for christ sakes.. so shut the fuck up... u have no right to judge me.....
Why isn't society able to accept someone who lives life by the day, why is there a conception of "failure to plan = plan to fail" i know.. the least i could do is to find proper work and at least return the favour to my parents for bringing me up all these years...... but... thing is idk where am i headed.. or where should i head... even though my parents just say go straight into everything or any work u can find and then see whether its the right job for you.... well thats true.. but working a while then quitting from the job... isn't something the society accepts. which company would want to employ someone who works for 1 month who then says he/she quits. arghh... fuck it i don't know what the fuck i'm saying >.>
Oh well, at least my ass is enrolled into studying for an advanced dip in travel tourism and hospitality work and study program thats why i said i'm settled for now. well work and study although it might be tough... work 6 days and study for one full day ; ;.. hopefully my ipod can thru these 2 coming years.. at least i know that in this sector my ass will still be employed lol.. i hope... haha.....

Relationship: Maternal Grandmother
God Bless your soul.
Yesterday i just finished watching an anime by the name of "Welcome to the N.H.K" the main story is about a male protagonist who is a hikkikomori (Definition: Individuals who refuse to leave their parents' house, and isolate themselves away from society and family in a single room for a period exceeding six months. While the distinctiveness of the phenomenon varies depending on the individual, some youths remain in isolation for years, or in rare cases, decades.) Well. its quite an interesting show abt it... lol.. even talks abt the addiction to online games. as the story was progressing i myself actually saw a part of me somewhere in the show. Obsession of games, not willing to find work.. well... lol.. at least i haven't shut myself off to society. my unwillingness to get out of the house is to save watever money i have left. theres a few parts in the show thats quite true. Like when the male lead who got so damn hungry cos he didn't have money to buy food cos hes not working and his parents had to stop sending him money due to some reasons. I guess the onli time a person actually gets a turn for the better is when he/she doesn't have food or water to drink... then i guess you'll force your ass to start working. well dun spoil anything else.. please d/l the show and watch.. very nice lol.....
P.S Bolded part.. i do not know whether i am just finding a reason or an excuse of bluffing myself or anything..
omfg can you believe it... i'm telling myself all lies -.- damn u donovan... damn it ... arghhh........
fucking signing off...... take care pple... frens and family.....
