Working..


Damn sai kang and sianz part-time job... Me, together with Yan Hui and his soccer friends, Gary and Zhen Hao (people usually called him as "H"), work from the 2nd week of this month till end of this month.. Last Tuesday was Gary's last day because his JC term has already started..

This job, got good got bad... Oh ya haven mentioned what was the work about... We have to use the cupboards that are ready-made to erect to a tray for the books (for the NLB) and the insertion of the handles.. We got paid 7 cents per cupboard + handle erected and inserted, and we have to finish over 50,000 by the end of this month, together with the malay couple..

This morning, we were rather pissed off by the last minute decision that was told to shift the whole thing from 1 end to another end, and we really screwed the head manager for SingPost (as they are the ones who managed the place to sort out all the NLB books) upside down.. In the end they were willing to compensate us with the rate of $10 per hour for moving the boxes to another place.. And after that, we still quarreled with the manager over some issues.. In the end, we won the argument..

I don't wish to say anything much about this job.. Can be very demoralizing like this morning when I had the frustrated kind of expression in me..

It's like every morning when I ride on Service 700 (be it TIB1062Y or TIB977P's time slot), I feel very motivated because I can already feel the "office environment" in the bus based on the dress code that they have.. But when I walked in from the bus stop opposite SAFRA Tampines (Tampines Ave 1) to the Tampines Biz Hub building, I kinda feel quite demoralized because all the while I don't have the chance to be a office boy.. Why is it this way? Haiz..

That's why I respect my Service 700 bendies the most and I won't want to do anything funny inside the bus itself... The rest of the services I can do all sort of stunt especially when the bus is overcrowded.. And whenever the WLDEP business-class bendy aka my favourite SMRT bus (bendies) TIB1062Y cameo on Service 960 (especially on Sundays whereby Service 700A doesn't have any bendies except some special occasions), I feel very heartpain about it.. (You should know the reason for it)

And hence my MSN nick...
