lazy ppl

2:08 PM

Had wanted to blog for quite awhile but was unable to get my hands on the PC haha so many of my siblings are "fighting" over the PC.. also becos i'm too tired after facing the PC at work ..

Well, to start off, i asked Dar Dar to "make noise" cos the lawyer said in the first place tat Dar Dar will be able to keep the flat by transferring ownership to one of his parents.

1) i tink the lawyer sucks big-time he doesnt bother to find out properly b4 telling his clients stuff
2) since he mentioned b4 it's possible to keep the flat..

of cos MUS make noise n make the lawyer do his job n find out how to keep the flat! some ppl r damn lazy they tink that they can jus bluff their way thru n not do wat they are paid to do
Ask me. I noe. Cos i ve tons of experience with these kind of bloody lazy ppl who always try to push things they r supposed to do.

Whether or not it's possible is besides the point. Make the stupid lawyer work. He's charging you, so he SHOULD try his v best to come up with a solution instead of telling u at first it's do-able den suddenly jus tell u oh sorry ar cannot.

Yes.. i'm a difficult customer :) esp nowadays when ppl at work are giving me tons of prob, BUT i will leave that to the next post.

I hate myself...

10:15 PM

Didn't planned to blog today until I receive a call from my lawyer at night. He just told me something that I kinda expected it but still hoped that he didn't tell me in person.

When I met my lawyer just last month, he told me that as long as I can form a family nucleus, the transfer of ownership from HER to one of my parents could be done. Now, he says the family nucleus to take over the ownership could only be formed by either my child, which I do not happen to have, or my new spouse. If not, the flat will be surrendered to the HDB. Baby asked me to "make noise" but I thought, no matter what the case is, I also want the divorce so I see no point in doing that.

My close friends and Baby know that my main concern in this whole divorce thingy is the flat. It doesn't matter if I'm living alone because I can just sell off the flat and rent a room outside. But my decision to ask my parents to sell off their flat and come to live with me a few years back now seems a bad decision. And all because of my divorce, I have to bother my parents once again. That's the part where I hate myself the most.

Of course I would have to discuss with my parents about what's next but currently I do not know how to broach this subject. Maybe because of my guilt ba. I tot I can let my parents live in peace for the rest of their lives and here I am, adding to their burden at the bloody age of 27. Damn. I hate myself.

I'm surrounded by idiots

11:36 PM

Haiz... y is it my coy keep hiring irritating ppl?
after one irritating person left another more irritating one comes in as the replacement! *SIGH*
Some ppl are so irritating... it's clearly their job but they wanna push it..idiots! New staff like tat old staff also like tat argh...

Cant stand these ppl esp the old staff who has stayed almost as long as me in the coy...

INCIDENT 1

Below is an email exchange between me n a colleague who has been in the coy for almost as long as me

ME
Colleague

Colleague,
With regards to the call that you have transfered to me earlier, pls send a ctc of the above invoice to Attn to the Finance Dept together with a cover letter to inform them that the amount is still outstanding.
the address should be XXX
Thanks

What is ctc? Wow lau, why last year matter, this year then come.
I pass to u the call as the invoices issue by you mah, thought u would have the record.

CTC = certified true copy..
we did send out CTC to chase for payment b4 but she didnt receive.. see we so nice help ur dept to chase for ur dept's revenue so hor u get bonus mus give me a treat..anyway she called cos they go thru their records n found this invoice still outstanding and the cheque (expired) has not been banked in..
yup, invoices generated by me but so many invoices by me how to rem.. anyway hor i checked le loh havnt received payment...For payment that our coy receievd you can check from Q:\PUBLIC FOLDER\Finance
then she say we have to notify them den they can send in chq so we have to send her a cover letter to say it's stil outstanding loh

don’t’ like that say leh. help coy, not our dept leh, revenue will still be split to all staff mah.
so each and everyone must team work right?
so invoice number as above.

ya la coy but dept revenue increase den the dept's bonus also will increase mah

Yup.. invoice as per subject title..

Dun like tat say mah coy revenue increase is everyone's bonus increase mah :)

INCIDENT 2
This one is the best i tink, i have never ever called anyone in my coy a BITCH, but this person really takes the cake.

ME
BITCH

Hi BITCH,
Pls find the email below as per requested.
Thanks
====>
Hi Colleague,
There's only 2 boxes of the white folder left in the store room. Kindly place order for more..
Pls ensure that there is always stock for the white folders.
Thanks

Quantity and when you need them?
By telling Colleague to ensure there’s always stock in the storeroom, she would not know ‘how much’ stock you are referring to, because there are still quite a number of paper folders in the storeroom. As such, you may want to help me understand better the usage of white paper folder (and maybe other stationeries) for your dept in terms of the frequencies of the usage and the quantity.
Thks.

BITCH,
My email to Colleague was just to alert her that the quantity is diminishing so that she is able to put in an order for the folders to avoid shortage should any staff require the folders.
Admin has always been the one in charge of ordering stationeries including white folders and also the grey files n ensuring there's sufficient stock. I have never informed Admin of how much quantity to order as Admin is the one in charge.
Since I do not know what is the quantity that Admin normally order, I'm afraid i am unable to advise on the quantity.
As for the usage for white folders, MR will normally use abt 100 - 150 pcs each month..
Thanks..

In fact, my email was not intended to make you worry for the stocks for these items. If you have read my email carefully, I am only asking about usage for your dept.
You last sentence on ‘MR’ normally use abt 100 – 150 pcs each month is what I am asking for.
Pls revert for stationeries usage as well for your dept.
Regards
BITCH

BITCH,
I reiterate, my purpose in emailing Colleague was to inform her that the stock is running low so that she could place an order to avoid any shortage out of goodwill, so that when other staff needs it, we wont run out of stock and wont face the problem of not being able to order it in time.
I refer to this line "Quantity and when you need them?
By telling Colleague to ensure there’s always stock in the storeroom, she would not know ‘how much’ stock you are referring to, because there are still quite a number of paper folders in the storeroom."
As your above sentence asked for the quantity, therefore I thought i should clarify that I did not indicate any quantity as I have never placed any order for the folders.
that is why i replied this - "Admin has always been the one in charge of ordering stationeries including white folders and also the grey files n ensuring there's sufficient stock. I have never informed Admin of how much quantity to order as Admin is the one in charge.
Since I do not know what is the quantity that Admin normally order, I'm afraid i am unable to advise on the quantity."
Again i reiterate, my purpose was just to ensure that Admin do not run out of stock.
As for the usage of stationeries, i am unable to give u a figure on the number of stationeries required as it depends on how many events there are, and there is no fixed number of events per month.
As agreed with the previous HR in charge, Admin will always maintain stock of 150 pens..
I hope you understand n do not take this the wrong way n take offence.
Regards,

Oh, then I should really thank you for the initiativeness and nice gesture. No worries, I do not take offence. I see it more as a misinterpretation of my email, and possible miscommunication, that’s why misunderstanding occurred.
By the way, you may not be aware, there has not been any handover from the previous HR & Admin in-charge to me, so I would not know what was the previous agreement you all had with her, and when I asked, nobody could give me an answer on anything that has been communicated to other departments pertaining to stationaries requests and usage. Unfortunately to mention, not even Colleague could answer these doubts I have.
Anyway, my purpose of checking with you is because as far as I understand, stationaries usage for Markets and MR Depts may be higher compared to other departments, due to seminars, events & activities. In fact, other than you, I have also spoken to a staff from Markets department on their usage. I need to get a feel of the utilisation rate of these items so that you get the stock you want to serve your work purpose.
Anyway, maybe w/o you realizing, you have answered my question on the quantity of the white paper folder i.e. 100 – 150 pcs per month. That will serve as a good gauge for us to note.
We will explore better ways to see how we can ensure that stocks are maintained at a constant level to cater to every department needs.
Regards,
BITCH

Ya.. like i wouldnt noe that i have answer ur qns. STUPID. she's the stupid one yet wanna try to make it seems like i so blur dunno that i have answered her qns hiaz dumbass.
She's the laziest HR/admin Executive i ve ever seen.. everything also push.
this email is jus an example of the way she tries to push her job to others.
She should be the one taking note of the stock available for staff to use. Still wanna ask me for amt to order bloody hell, can she jus drop dead n die..

sickening! PUI!

Collection of thoughts Part 2

11:23 PM

Looked into the mirror this morning and stared at myself for 5 seconds. During the break at class, I suddenly asked Baby "Why did you choose me over HIM when it was apparent that he was better-looking than me?" Baby was quite shocked and asked me why I asked this question out of the blue. Told her I looked into the mirror this morning and suddenly had this niggling thought. Forgot what her answer was because first she never did really answered the question and second I was too tired. Just knew that she mentioned "sometimes it's not about looks". That means I'm really uglier than him lor. =( Jokes aside, most importantly is the fact that she's by my side. Guess it's just one of those wu liao thoughts.

==================

Man Utd finally scored more than 1 goal in open play this season le! 4-0 winners over Wigan and everybody says MU is back. Hope it's true! But suay suay got what international break for 2 weeks. Damn. Break the momentum that MU is building. No choice but to pray that no one, esp Ferdy, Rooney, Ronaldo doesn't pick up injuries.

==================

Wanted to post this for a long time but was too lazy to transfer the photos out.

So true... My kiki only has my family and I plus Baby... but still I think it's quite cool... mobile pet cremation... Why do I have images of you passing your dead pet and on the way to the pet cemetery (if there is one), they will do the cremation in this lorry??
