No Appreciation

-

If you guys have been reading my blog recently, you would know that the auditors of my company have not been producing enough financial statements for tax provisions purposes. As a result, my boss has asked me to help to clear the store of files for the companies that has been struck off the register. Clearing the files meant that I had to take out the papers from the files and tear them into pieces for those papers that are printed on both sides and sort out those that are only printed on one side to be used as recycled paper.

Clearing the store means that the files are usually quite torn and old, as a result,

  1. The staplets will be hard to take out.
  2. The files can be dusty.
  3. The papers can be stuck together and it can be hard to take out the papers for recycling & re-using  purposes as it can be difficuit to tell if both sides are printed.

I was a little pissed off when my secretarial dept colleague said that I did not sort out the papers for recycling properly and just put them for reuse after sorting.

The clearing of the store is certainly not part of my job. The clearing of struck off files is not part of my job. It should be the secretarial dept’s job, yet they are not doing it. I was telling my manager I am helping them and suffering the cuts by the staplets and sharp edges of the papers, yet this is what I get. Not even a word of thanks but brickbats all over. I am just being asked to help by my boss as our dept needs to be in charge of admin matters as well.

Because of this, I had to wear short-sleeved shirts or polo t-shirt to work for the past few days to avoid the dust being stuck onto my shirt.

帮人做事，还给人嫌，真是吃力不讨好！！！

Dinner @ Bacchus @ Dempsey

I joined the Facebook Foodies Club for dinner at Bacchus last night. Yesterday was with a smaller group of people with 11 people. It meant that I had a chance to interact with people and enjoy good food at the same time. I certainly had a good time knowing Deborah, Rene, Wenna, Chris & Catherine. The good part was having my singing buddy, Jonathan around as well, making me able to enjoy the dinner and making friends with relative ease. I must say I enjoyed the food, that I ordered. I ordered the Flumuken,Bawhrust susages and tiramisu cake. You must be thinking that why I ordered so much food. I must say I was very hungry as I didn’t have a filling lunch. Although, it burned a hole in my pocket, but it is certainly good to indulge in myself sometimes! I like the ambience of the restuarant. After the dinner, we indulged ourselves in some German wine before we were asked to pose for photos. After that, we adjourned to Harry’s Bar for a drink and chat session. Jonathan was so afraid

My Hosting Script for The National Day Event

-
I just managed to work out the draft hosting script for the National Day Event I am hosting. I am thankful for all the comments that I have received from my fellow RC members and friends. Just feel that sometimes, no matter whatever you do, some people, no matter for what reasons, will not be happy with the arrangements. I just wish to say that I am already trying my best to try to get this event going, considering the fact, that this is the 1st time I am organising an RC event. I have also tried my best, despite the fact that I would like to have a free hand to organise the event, just like what I usually do for the KTV events I have on Facebook, I accommodated to the requests that I should somehow follow the past years’ format to do the event. I know that I am not very familiar with how things are run at the RC, therefore in the end, my organising committee only made some changes to the event as we had a limited budget to work on. I even volunteered myself to do the hosting for the

June Musings

 It has been a while since I last blogged. Since then, I am settling well into my role, although there were some incomings and outgoings, which are common in any workplace.   I managed to catch a last glimpse of Yishun Orto before it closed on 30 June. I would like Leonard, Wendy & Michael, as without them performing at the Happiest Hour Bar & Bistro, I guess I would never go to this place, as I had not so fond memories of a nearby place during my NS days.   I did not manage to get A* Mei or Jacky Cheung concert tickets this round. It could be a sign for me to build up my savings again after an unstable 3 years on the job front. I hope to stay on this job for a while despite its lack of transport amenities and lack of shelters for rain as it is not often that you can have great teams of colleagues and bosses with whom you can get along well. I guess having a boss who is differently abled helps me to settle in well as colleagues tend to be more understanding and caring.
