I've been missing for more than 1 month... from here.
Basically.. nothing much to update. Have been saving up for the Taiwan trip since beginning of this year in order to hit the targeted sum by June, since there's a change of plan, we are postphoning the date to April next year.
There's a list of homestay that we narrow down... but if too many people is going along.. i think might have to change the list..
Well... will leave until Aug to start planning.... meanwhile, i can start spending a bit~~~ LOL. First, bought a wardrobe for lin.. which cost only $99 (exclude delivery and installation). It's a good bargain~ and i'm happy to save up more. =P
Spent on some clothes, ah ma's bday gift, chalet and mom's skin care products last month.... so i suppose i need to tighten my budget starting from now in order to hit my scheduled target saving. Geez..
AS for dad's pc... I am seriously re-considering that. He's been too addicted to the games, not to mention that he has been playing the game since this morning before 7am until 12pm with occasion toilet / smoking break and a 2hrs lunch break. Complains of friends stealing our game items is common and everytime there is a game bug, or even the long wait during the maintenance timing is common or problem logging in, he will start complaining and ended up in frustration when i told him there's nothing i can do about it too.
With the recent facebook update which only allow 1 login per id (previously i can login to update my facebook while he play the games using my login id), I can't even login in peace cos he will start shouting if i'm using the facebook whenever he is terminated from the game (if he's using my acc again) for dunno wat reasons.
With the limited time to check all the posting.... i complain to him about him clicking on the "like" post at least 5 times a day because some dunno wat games apparently request him to do that, and it will flood my notice list which i depend on to check friends update.
Taki came complaining to me again about him accepting random friend request using her account and i told him to stop doing that. Then he started throwing his temper at us, shut the pc and start watching the soccer match instead, threatening about not helping us to play the games.
That is a good thing, cos I'm getting abit tired of this whole facebook thing. I think it will be alot easier if he can be just contended using his own account especially when i got a number of friends who seriously dun believe that my dad is playing the games for me, and start grumbling at me for not replying their message when I can be online playing the games. Competition in fb games can be irritating when your friend starts calling you to check if what you are really outside and inaccessible to the pc when you overtake them in some stupid flash games. I dun really care about those friends who doubt abt my words but it's just annoying to know about that.
I remember there's once a random friend of his message him, and i told him to ignore it and close the chat box since it's nothing important but some request for game help. Then he came screaming at me about how can i close his friend's chat box without replying and that is simply rude. GG. Can i just slam my door and walk off....... haiz..
All things about work is good especially with the nice 1mth+ bonus and it's been a smooth month despite the weird increase of events lately... all the runs, triathlon, and cycle weekly.
One thing i can never understand is why aren't they using the technology to ease the workflow. oh god, imagine 3 helpdesk staff (that include 1 manager) for a company with more than 500 office staff? No wonder the speed is slow.... I think i can at least cut down of 5% of the work time wasted each day by creating some shared database program for the various department so that they can stop emailing all the changes daily and risk missing out some of those emails.
At least the condolence is... I'm getting a new pc for work in the "near future", on monday i heard. Finally an escape from that Pentium 3, so now i am praying for them to upgrade the connection speed or the photocopier. Which company with this staff strength still relies on ADSL?
Let's ignore about those superficial issues on work, the future is going to be pretty unpredictable with my direct manager requesting for a transfer since he cannot stand the unreasonable request from my GM. How does he expect us to solve labour shortage with projected low recruitment until end of this year without bursting OT hours. It will be easy if we can diversified the OT to every staff... but not all staff are willing to work OT. And I see my poor colleague calculating the OT hours manually for 200 staffs in the red zone whom are in risk of bursting their OT hours, thanks to some stupid IT system that can't do that. If only my GM learns how to be less skeptical about everything.
So.. i guess, today's blog entry is full of rambling of frustration. I really need to learn to look at the good things only. Shall make sure the next blog is soon... and much more relaxing to read. LOL.
