Contempt

I haven't felt this much contempt for so long. I hate my boss; I really hate her yesterday. They were shooting a corporate video for the D&D at the end of the year, but no one informed us or told us about it. Nvm, I just minded my own business and do my work. It was a very busy day as both my colleagues were at schools doing some branding exercise.

Out of the sudden, I was volunteered to pose with my male colleague for the camera. I refused, so they asked my VP, HR to come and force me. I complied, anyway this is the last straw for me. Seriously, now I work solely for the sake of money, nothing else. In the past, I would still seriously care for the company and dept, you can ask them to go eat shit now.

Review

I read about 2-4 novels every months. Today I am going to introduce this book for all who have a keen interest in reading. Seldom have I read such a good horror book, not that you can actually label the book in this genre. It comprises of a love so eternal, a hero so endearing and a climax so explosive. In actual fact, the flow of the words were smooth; I finished it in a night. I thank the author for giving me such a good read. Than again, perhaps its because that I am a fan of such books, not too sure it will appeal to you guys.

post malaysia retreat

Hi I am back from my company's trip to the Palace of the Golden Horses, where the HR dept is supposed to strategise and plan for the next few months and the year ahead. My colleague and I was mostly disappointed at the outcome; true it talks about good plans and value-creation for the whole company which I feel it will help. However, how do we carry these plans out with our schedule? Initially, I thought there will be plans to talk about alleviating the ungodly hours that we work in; Of course there are some people who can work till 10pm everyday, but I can't. I am suffering from a burnout and yet these talks about more work really make it worse.

I decided to talk to my supervisor about this. Hah...the usual reply came, " its a matter of prioritising your work and managing your time, Boon Chong" Right...when I pride myself on taking shortcuts and efficiency, you tell me I have so much work because of innate characteristics in me. Not that I want to blame on external issues, but it is really too much for me...

But if I resign now, I will feel even more unjust! Cos I have not even have the luck of getting a month's bonus from the company!! Arrgh, its still a long 3 months to go.
