Balik Kampung yeah yeah + Work pics

I applied for leave already for the 3rd of October. I left the form in the Boss box, hopefully he lets me have the day off since I want to be back home at my kampung, to see Grandpa. There's going to be a gathering too and that of course means BBQ which equals to lamb chop owh please please let there be lamp chops...yum!! But if there are no lamb chops, I suppose pork chops are ok hehehe. Oooh and there seem to be a plan of celebrating all the October babies, me and Grandpa included of course hehehhehehe and I hear presents too :P in the exchanging of gifts :) I'm thinking of books or a book for a present for the other October babies as books are always good for anyone hehehe and I don't really know what else to give.

Before the holidays though, 2 more days of work. Have to get more money. Really, what can I do if they don't have any payment prepared already? Its not like I have this magic wand that I could swish around and POOF! payment made and received. Again I was attacked (I feel attacked) from those bloodsuckers from HQ always asking for money money money. That guy emailed me statement of accounts of customers that still have outstanding and have not made payment yet. He said I was not proactive in chasing after payment and emailed this to my boss, to his boss, to other higher up people. I feel like kicking and punching that guy, gorging his eyes out....GAH! That was how pissed off I was with him and his shitty attitude.

I realize earlier on in this job that I'm doing, you need to know how to lie and lie well, lie well enough to convince people, be it your customers or your own colleagues far away across the ocean. And guess what? I'm a bad lier. And I hate to lie. But I have to. But then I lie badly and in the end I got caught up in the lie and I'm being shamed. Hate that. Who likes that?

Want to see my crappy, small, hot-but-there-is-aircond-in-there-but-they-don't-close-the-door-so-its-hot office? Below:

This is what I look at every single day except on alternate Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays :D.



This is under my desk which takes up a lot of leg space. Those are empty envelopes, company stamps, blank papers that will be used as notes paper etc.



This is behind me, inside that cabinet is full of files that when I leave open because I keep taking out files from there, the boss will keep on closing it (if he is in the room :) ).



This is really behind me, see that paper basket there and more paper again.



This is the front view near the door. They say they can't see me if they look in from outside the door. Hehe.

This is the small space that I sit in. I had to angle the desk drawers thing that way so when I turn around I could still open it. That is how small my space is. Get a smaller chair? There are no other chairs available. Besides I like my big chair hehehhehe.

The calendar on my desk, all covered with notes and messages from customers. A bit messy (ok very messy) but at least its all there :).

Something I wrote down after a very very very stressful morning. Yes morning, I still had to go through the afternoon.

Ok, here it is. I am thankful that I have a job and that I get paid and able to save some money. For all that I am thankful. I know all jobs are stressful but sometimes I just wish that I am doing something that I really really enjoy, really look forward to do everyday. I just have to find it and keep on searching. For now, I have to tough it out. Maybe this will make me stronger, or maybe it will just drive me nuts!! 8D
