i'm running a fever. or maybe, i feel feverish. ahhh.
today marks the last official day in kwe. didnt really bear to leave the place, and yah, i did ot. to come out with some crappy SOP for the future 'generations'. lol. and so nice, my boss brought the printed copies to the toilet. wahahaha.
well, how time flies. 5 months since i first stepped into the company. with the initial thought that "wow. jap company. must be damn cool" to the disappointment i had when i stepped into the office. dimly-lit 4th storey lift lobby, not really fabulously furnished office.
i remembered when i first came here, rohit was kind of ticking off suzana and christina. i reached the office at 8:15, a HR girl named karen brought me to hp ocean at 8:30, and i only got introduced to the staff at 9am. and yah, karen told me to take a seat at charles' seat. when he reached that day, he was pretty shocked, to see such a youngster taking his seat, as if i'm gonna replace him. soon i realized, he probably wont get replaced, coz he's rohit's right hand man. haha.
i was anti social. from the start till now. i didnt really mix very well with the staff here, at least people from hp ocean. i didnt go out for lunch for the 1st day coz i was kind of too afraid to mix around. but they were nice coz they bought lunch for me. but i remembered martin drove us to airport on the 2nd day. it's when i started talking to ppl like joanne, michelle, mag and others.
ok, i'm not going to rattle on what happened on the 3rd, 4th till the 100th day....
oooh, initially michael wanted to treat the 4 temp staff for lunch today, sort of farewell or sth. the 4 of us kept finding restaurants near the area, from sakura to sakae to genki to yah, our final decision, ding tai fung. what a way to extort money from my supervisor! hahaha. and yah, i'm a sua gu, it's my first visit there today! haix. it could be a wonderful lunch, with our bickerings and jokes and crap. DAMN IT! some asshole nicknamed 'jin san shun' aka 'kim sam soon' joined in. i knew sth was wrong when he stood at the gate while we were waiting for taxi. URGH!!!! he spoiled my mood la. to think my final lunch is screwed up. martin called and came along with us too. haha. and we ate like quite a number of xiao long baos and noodles and fried rice. yum yum yum. but apparently, due to some ASSHOLE joining in, the 4 of us were in our own world. i dont wanna talk to him. yucks yucks yucks yucks yucks.
and before we set off for lunch, rohit had a meeting with the supervisors/ assistant managers, regarding us using too much msn and surfing websites unrelated to work. (look at us, youtubing almost every day!) so michael came and talk abit and suzana came too! wahhh, then they talk talk talk talk talk to what wan hai cut what bill, NYK what, MAERSK what and all that and still happily chatting. 4 of us were like stuck at our seats and stare at them and we cant get out of that area coz they were in the way. so we tried to squeeze through this little opening at the back of the room, between the pillar and the partition. really behaved like monkeys, and to me, it looks as if mummy and papa were talking and 4 little kids in their own world, self entertaining. LOL.
when we came back from lunch, we started munching on the almond jelly that jonathan made! hahaha. ok, really ate alot, and all of us were like super full. partying like nobody's business. haha. i really felt very fortunate coz my first job wasnt sucky at all, that's if u neglect some parts in between.
i'm so gonna miss the people there! and i promise i'll sneak into the lunch bus one day and visit them! i felt really happy when they wished me all the best for everything and told me that i've done a good job (whether they meant it or not that's another issue).
ok. damn, i'm crying.
i've seen people come and went during this period of time. first it was gini, then joanne, then wendy, christina, martin. left hp ocean. then came ann, amy, michael.
no matter how i've been complaining about how sucky this place is for the past few months, it was indeed not really sucky at all. at least, nobody ill treats me there. well, there was this period of time in may i was really unhappy about stuffs. i had cold war with ______. but isnt it great now that everything's alright now? i really enjoyed the last 2 weeks of work. i really had loads of joy and laughter with the temp staff, i'm really glad we could joke around and they accepted all my nonsense. mass youtubing!! from 'magicians of love', to 'kang xi lai le' to 'quan min da men guo' to 'wang zi bian qing wa' to 'hana yori dango'! esp 'quan min da men guo' coz it's really full of shit. we kept laughing at the jiu kong imitating rain's 'sad tango', 'brokeback mountain', and the best!!! LAO SHI!!!!!! even jonathan uses that to explain how we can change the feng shui for hp ocean.
i'm really glad sometimes that i'm the youngest in the department, coz sometimes they treat me like a kid and care for me. buying lunch for me, coming over to talk all that. i'm greatful that i have a supervisor who's really crappy and can talk shit and can suan! haha. i'm really glad i get to know people better, those whom i never ever dared to talk to in the past. that's suzana. haha. it was after some time i realized that she's just a kan chiong spider that's all. she's really nice. ahhhh, i'm running out of vocab!
i really miss them to bitsssssss! i guess i cant adapt to life without work yet. not chionging for the ngee ann primary van every morning. not listening to 97.2fm. not going to pantry and see what breakfast there is. no free internet. no free chargers. no more pentium 2! no more job files. not more fiddling with excels. no compliance every week. no cssqe every day. no more NB, JN, PT, SA, SN, KK. no more the little hp ocean temp dept room. no tearing of dhl papers. ahhh, i really miss my kwe life.
i hate to part. hey to my temp dept!!!!! our dinner!!!!! havent got it settled huh? lol. let's meet up some evening k? haha.
if you all miss me, pls do not attempt to call me early in the morning and ka jiao me!!! and i promise i'll go running, at least for monday. haha. hmmm, dont touch the april files k? maybe i'll return and do filing! WAHAHAHAHAHA. i know you all will miss me, coz i bet it'll be so much quieter on monday, at least no one there who keeps going 'ah pui!', 'shit!' ,'ahhhhhhHHHHH!' when she uses microsoft word. and no one there who does silly things like kneel on her chair when rohit steps in. no one there to pin stupid pins on the partition. ok, i'm a bhb.
yah, do not attempt to make me ur ad-hoc temp replacement! unless you can pay me 12 per hr! wahahahaa. joking la.
ok, i kept thinking of all their wishings. i felt damn touched. i wonder whether my next job will be as enjoyable as this. though charles warned me not to come back to this company again, maybe i may consider to return. ahh, and i was damn sad when i turned back and waved goodbye to them at the porch, thinking, maybe it's the last time we'll meet.
so here i am, enjoying my holidays together with the kids...(sighs)
