Earth Hour

March 21, 2009

eh

Well, well.. Earth Hour 2009.

Heard about this movement last year, and from my point of view, I understand the cause, I understand the organization that are passionate about it, but I really don’t think I can understand those ppl who say they support it.

Organizations like this are passionate about what they do, they truly believe in making the world a better place, saving planet Earth.

But those ppl who can take this step to switch off their lights for an hour, but can’t even throw their own trash in the bin and just throws it out their car window, those who smoke away, and contribute to air pollution..

Don’t be a hypocrite.

You can support the cause, without making a statement that I SUPPORT THE CAUSE and next thing you know, you saw trash coming out of their car window.

Tsk..

Just do it.

Don’t have to tell the world you DID it.

Office Politics and Ugly Romance

March 17, 2009

As the title says it, I am so unfortunate to had befallen into a web of such drama in the office recently.

Dont get me wrong, no, I’m not in that ugly romance. Gawd no!

But I am so affected by how my manager has that relationship with my subordinate.

Yupp, you hear it right. MY MANAGER, someone above me) and MY SUBORDINATE (someone below me). So it gets ugly. Not just the situation, of couse the couples themselves are ugly. EW.. DISGUSTING..

Because my subordinate knows she has this relationship with my manager, she uses that leverage against everyone else who gets on her bad side. So in the end, everyone else gets blamed for something which is not even our fault.

She made a big complaint about how rumors about her having a relationship with the manager is going around the office. Complained it to the GM. (Believe it or not)

Yet, surprisingly, my GM is dumb enough to fall for her lies because those claimed RUMORS are not RUMORS , BUT MERE TRUTH.

And how do I know its the TRUTH? I witnessed it.

So if I had no care in the world for watever fuck, I would’ve jiujitsu her fucking bitch flat ass already for being such a cunning slut. Knowing she can control the manager because the manager would listen to everything she says.

Of course, its not the case. I do have things I need to take care of, my reputation to maintain, and professionalism at stake. So I chose to remain silent.

Its sad that my sincerity towards the subordinate did not return any good to me. I guess I’m just so naive to think that if you are nice to the person, they will be nice to you too.

I always believe,

“do unto others, as you would want them to do unto you.”

guess thats not always the case huh?

Countdown: 2 shifts

March 5, 2009

I’ve got 2 more night shifts to go before my next day off. Then its a shift change to Afternoon again.

AAaaaAAaAaaaiiiiii … stressnye…..

Well, my month of March is just beginning and I’m already wishing its the end..

So much changes in the work place its just so hard to keep up sometimes.. Another colleague of mine will be leaving as well.. Sigh.. if only I had the means.. I wouldn’t keep myself stuck in a place that has no career development prospect as well..

For now, I just have to suck it up.

I’m just relieved that I had finish up an assignment that is due next Monday. Don’t know if the Manager will like my article but I think I did just fine. If not, well.. I think I’d be kinda disappointed cos though initially I wasn’t thrilled at being assigned with the particular subject of research but I ended up putting a lot of effort on it.

I just hope it’ll be appreciated.

I really do hope.
