http://ph.contiki.com/tours/130-great-britain-winter

hopefully the tour is filled wif fun ppl.. as they r supposed to b for age 18-35 aniwae! pls dun let us meet some weirdos!! it will b a relaxing sightseeing 8 days... i m so lookin fwd to the ghost walk at york!! but other dan dat it seems like a tour full of sightseeing thingys..

so.. e focus is actually on the 4 days at london all by ourselves! booked YHA hostel which gt highest ratings at hostelworld.com.. pls dun let us meet weird ppl like the half naked guy in NYC hostel.. n.. plannin e london trip ish so much like plannin a new york trip! theres musicals... wan to watch shows like les miserables (nid to noe how to pronounce w.o xia swayin in frnt of the british..) wicked or chicago.. (no more shows like grease... =X) quite tempted to watch mamma mia as well! n omgs london bridge ish like so london bridgeish.. king cross station reminds me of monopoly... n dis time.. maybe we will skip e museums.. prob jus visit one free admission one if we gt no money left n nid to kill time... theres e palace, castle, oxford uni (harry potter!!).. mayb will drop by one of the garden? (doesnt it jus remind u of central park at nyc!)

suddenli 4 days at london ish SO nt enuff.. but considering our budget.. i tink mayb its a wise decision.. ahhh.. i m jus so excited abt e trip! lucky we din go korea as planned.. its so nt exciting... but egypt n south africa n the extreme sports in NZ is so tempting as well!! soon soon.. skydiving will b nxt!

so my day started lidats..

11AM:

received a call frm one of the boutique.. asking about her commission and why is she not entitled to commission when she is transferred to another boutique recently.. so she nag n nag its nt fair that she gt no comm at the transferred boutique.. so i feel a bit bad at first coz no comm at the 2nd boutique. THEn i check her sales figures, she did not even meet the min target of 10k to be entitled to commission. so why the hell is she calling me and ask me abcdefg abt her comm!? so i called her n tell her hey u did nt meet ur min target lehh so no comm wat. AND THEN she started gg on n on abt its nt fair la dat we change the scheme.. nw economic recession.. i dunno e situation nw.. last time they agreed to give her abcdefgfijk.....

seriously. even tho shes old, doesnt mean we shld give her higher salary when she did nt even perform 50% of a cheaper sales ger tat is much younger. n everyone is gg thru dis new scheme so why shld she b an exception. its nt like shes talented to the max and we haf to give her lots of $$ to retain her n stuff. HELLOOOO. dis ish nt japan wif e seniority wage scheme. go japan la if u wan to get paid according to ur age. its the age of PRODUCTIVITY. stop naggin n naggin. i realli gt no patience wif old ppl. zero tolerance esp when they start nagging.


12NooN:

someone called n ask me if i heard abt the latest news of the MONSTER doing in the company. he deserves the name of MONSTER in the company whereby dis dear nickname is shared by everyone within 1 mth of his entry in the co. so they keep tellin me wat he did.. how they cant stand him animore.. if he dun go someone is gg to quit.. dis ish like the 10th time i talk to them abt the MONSTER.. tryin to console them.. tell them jus endure... things will b better.. why nt we try dis n dat so that we wun get to handle shit from the MONSTER so much etc.. no matter how bastardish he ish (telling one of e sales ger to nt make him slap her in frnt of e customer). his skills as programmer n engineer is still needed in the company.. all we nid to do ish jus b polite n tok to him WHEN necessary so tat our paths dun cross much. i guess its more tiring for them since their jobs cross quite frequently.. but aiyos. u all dun haf the skills so how can i kick him out leh. if u haf the skills tat he possess.. or able to hire new one tat is not a monster. I WILL BE THE FIRST TO FIRE HIM!! but sadly, all of us cant do his work. so jus endure hell wif him ba.

3PM

ok. one of e manager call n tell me abt the old woman issue.. so she started nagging again. i dun understand ppl's need to explain the situation to the slighest details when u noe the other party know 90% of the situation. n since shes more senior dan me. surely she know how to handle without the need for me to worry abt the situation after she analyse ritee. its doing double work wat. if u can handle. go ahead straight. theres no one else more senior n exp dan u. sometimes jus haf to act ur age n exp ba. dun behave like a year 1 tat haf to ask everyones opinion bfore u can make e decision. there r SO mani times when she called n tell me abt situations abcdefghijk.. n then i haf to go n understand the situations, then find a solution, propose to my boss, ONLY to realise dat she haf already told him before me n they have already come wif a solution to that situation. i jus feel like a monkey doing wateva she do only to find that i m jus performing a show n no one is looking.

its hard to respect someone when she need to get opinion abt the simplest thing from the boss. n from e exp of her making me do double work 99% of the time. how can i nt b smart but to ignore her almost all the time? i m getting more n more tired from talkin to her. todae she ask me to do smt again so i just kinda flare at her n HINT her using the simplest thing tat nxt time jus follow e method, dun go do smt tat u tot is efficient but in the end make me do double work n the results is the same. i tink she get my hint tat i m gettin impatient by her already.


i was tinkin thru wat my aunt told me once. why i choose hr. its e most diff thing to do coz u nid to handle a lot of ugly issues frm the ppl. now i realli understand wat she meant.

bottomline: i am not happy at my job.
