it has been a long time since i last blog.
the year 2012 has been full of ups and downs:
The first incident:
around mid july, company's HR manager resigned. my instincts tells me that its high time i think whether i should continue to work in the company after being stressed out because of the mountains and mountains of work and having a pair of very unappreciative bosses who just scold and blame employees, who slogs like cows to do events and think of ideas to promote the company, when they are in bad mood.
my instincts was right, its time to leave. a lot of my colleagues tender their resignation when the new HR manager come in. it is funny to see so many employees enter the office of the new HR manager with their letters and i am one of them. she asked me why i want to resign and persuaded me to stay but i stay firm on my decision and was finally summoned into the bosses office for questioning. dun you think that it is weird that the bosses questioned your resignation and dun accept your resignation letter??? he even told one of the employees a story about the eagle and the baby eagle and how he is the eagle training the baby eagle which is the employee to fly. i think it is so ridiculous that i dun even know to laugh or cry. still i managed to resign thanks to the HR assistant for finding a replacement so fast.
Second incident:
found a part time job after slacking for 1 month at home.
it was a temp packer job at a warehouse near expo but the environment there have its pros and cons.
Pros:
the aunties that i worked with are very nice people
1hr lunch break
10 mins tea break in the morning and afternoon
Cons:
delivery orders sometimes too many that we dun even have time to break
the aunties are more politics than the office environment
but overall it was ok even though the pay very little but still can survive. job lasted from sept to dec when finally the company decides to cut off all part timers. 4 mths in the warehouse was a very good experience.
Third incident:
i finally can go to korea!!! so happy that i keep counting down to the day of the flight!!!
took the plane for the first time in 22 years!!! woohoo!!
however, all trips with family members bound to have conflicts.
on the second last day of the trip, which was the day where we went to the cosmetic shop, i wanted to buy the new powdered form sunblock since it was so cheap then. it was on a buy 2 free 1 promo but my grandma upsets me by shouting so loudly that i have a medical condition in chinese which sounds so wrong.
i was so upset that i totally have no mood to shop at all so i went out of the shop which to my amazement, everybody thinks that i am very childish and spoilt child. i totally cannot accept it at all, they did not even consider my feelings when everybody heard what my grandma says. i am so damn hurt. in the end, my sis persuade me to buy some handcream as they look very cute and also buy some masks for my close friends.
i finally persuaded by my sis, went into the shop to buy the things i need to. however, my grandma totally ignore me for the rest of the trip, even when we were in the hotel.
since then, i told myself it is impossible to go on a trip with family members esp if u have elderly with you, either you will come back with a lot of regrets or there will be eternal destruction of your image.
so that sums up my ups and downs in 2012, i think only downs more correctly.
the year 2013 starts well as i got a part time job for 2 mths at a research company and the pay is damn good
people there are very nice and they give you advice when you are stuck. not like when i am in the previous company where pay is so little and no advices but scoldings. overall, it was a good environment.
now i am unemployed again.... haizzz.
counting down to D-Day: 21 more days to go
