Bye 2011

Bye bye lousy 2011.. I don't miss you at all and can't wait to get over with this year!

Hooray! Over and done with 2011!

End of Year 2011

I haven't been posting for half a year.

I had a lousy 2011 for a start and I ended my misery in August.. Now trying to find my life back and hopefully 2012 would be a better year.

A Disturbing Incident

I witness an accident yesterday morning.. Right before my eye and
there was nothing I could do to stop it.. I can only scream and
obviously it didn't help.. The old lady who jay walked was first
knocked by a Toyota then followed by a silver cab.. both drivers tried
to avoid but it was difficult.. The drivers came out of the cars to
check if she was ok.. I saw her consious & show pain on her leg.. it
was a disturbing sign & I hope she's fine :(

Is so Unreasonable

I had an urgement with a client.. I can't stand unreasonable person.. and I can't stand people who accused my team, my company or myself.. We did nothing wrong.. we are a team of good buyers who follow closely to the rule and always did our best to source for the best value items..

If the purchase is not approved, that is the client internal issue.. we don't approve what you buy.. we just help you to source.. Stop blaming us if your company is incapable to control, communicate and handle problem..

Is Ugly!!

I had a meeting with the user and supplier yesterday over the requirement and cost estimation.. User will not reduce the work load and wanted every single item as planned.. Thus I've to get supplier to reduce their cost..

I managed to get supplier to reduce the cost not because I was a good negotiator.. It was out of goodwill and relationship that we have builded with this supplier over the years.. I know my supplier is willing to do it so he can get that client out of my back..

When I was in the discussion with my supplier, my manager called in and he was happy that I managed to reduce the charge to even lower than what my company is paying.. Isn't it amazing? Luckily my manager is very understanding and he agreed that the charge was reasonable and after working out on some calculation, we managed to agreed on a charge that was not so much loss to the supplier.. I'm grateful for the supplier's support.

My manager told me that it was a good work.. but I was not in mood to actually claim credit :(

What really upset me was... after we reduce the charge, the user actually says we can buy more expensive gift now.. sigh! probably just a remark.. but I thot you are suppose to be tight budget and yet when I asked for the budget for this work.. Reply was "there is no budget" :(

Isn't it ugly?

Hard Day

I had a very hard day with the client today.. they even wanted to talk to my manager.. go ahead.. I feel that my supplier is not charging you unreasonably as the scope of work is really alots.. When can stupid people stop comparing apple with banana..

The client know the cost for that work.. that why they dare not take up my challenage in comparing pricing with their current supplier..

They just want to push me hard.. so I can get my supplier to reduce the price.. but that is not fair to my supplier.. I pity my supplier and really hope that they will not do any future work for these people anymore..

I feel so tired to explain to unreasonable people..

Somethin' Happen

Something must have happened at Paya Lebar MRT this morning..

Polices, ambulances and civil defence vehicles lining up just outside Paya Lebar MRT... went to the platform and saw many MRT staffs, polices and reporters with big zoom camera looking so tense..

Must be someone jump down again.. surprisingly the platform and train were not crowded but instead the Paya Lebar Road was jammed.. bcos so many police car parking by the road.. so they slow down to see what is happening :(

Bloody Stalker

Almost every morning.. I would see this stalker on board the same bus as me.. He will always choose to stand right in front of where I sit.. The bus that I took does not sit 2 by 2.. instead it is in vertical row.. that bloody fellow would just stand right to my face.. bcos he know that I would go off at the usual bus stop.. and once I get up.. he would go for my seat. I just can't stand him anymore.. There are so many regular faces on board that bus each morning (at least I can identify some).. some even drop off the same stop as me.. why must he choose me?? My seat smell nicer ah?? I just feel so uneasy especially when I know he purposely stand in front of me.. his face is getting more and more irritating.. he is short, skinny and with a rat face!!

I'm sad!

Alien has invaded my house.. I haven't been talking since Sat nite till today.. I wake up at 6.10am this morning and was out of house by 6.45am.. just to avoid the alien.. How long can I do it? My mind is not at peace.. script running through my brain every sec.. I hate this kind of feeling..

Pay Peanut; Get Phoenix

Had breakfast with my two colleagues.. I know we are all demotivated and demoralised.. I know people have to accept changes.. and change is good.. but the management is asking too much from us for next year.. If you pay peanut, don't expect to get phoenix..



My fave mee siam

Look Ahead..

Went for breakfast and bump into V and her two boys.. She has applied for divorce with T.. She wanted the child custody and T can get the house.. She has since moved out and is now renting a house in my area with her 2 boys, 1 girl and maid.. V has been very strong and mature.

Within this month, already got 2 friends going through divorce.. I start to recall the time when I attended their wedding and now they are separated.. no longer want to talk about the other party.. What is marry?

Treasure Hut

Dear M, mummy and me had breakfast at Bedok Interchange hawker on Sunday.. We had our favourite yong tau foo.. After breakfast we accompany mummy to Hair Inn to get her hair color.. 3 person choosing 1 hair color.. can imagine how much noise we make in the shop.. I even told the hairstylist that if the color effect does not appear what we choose.. we will tear down his shop.. cause he is doing the Empress dowager's hair leh!

After settling mummy's bill, we went swimming in Bedok.. It was a treasure hut swim for me.. I found fish bone, fish meat and plaster in the pool.. 1st, I found fish bone.. I thot my eyes playing trick on me.. so I reconfirmed by going into the water to check.. then I told Dear M that there is fish in the pool.. he thot there is a dead fish.. When he saw it, he feel like throw out! Next, I found fish meat.. it looks so pale, it must be soaking there for many days..

I can't swim anymore.. cause my mind is so preoccupied by the fish.. Every lap that I swim, I start to treasure hut.. my whole mind was just to search for more funny thing in the pool.. I was hoping to find the fish head and tail.. haha! It was disgusting!! If my camera phone can put inside the water.. I would have taken a photo as memory.. haha!

"Lost and Found".. Kid size pant at the kiddy pool area..

No more Bedok swimming pool for me :(

Depress

US Embassy called this morning.. to check if an American citizen who is a destitute boarded the plane this morning back to US. When you travel oversea for holiday.. it is always happy.. How did he end up penniless? Was he cheated?

Not sure what happen to me recently.. even the slightest things make me feel depress.. Where are all the beautiful things that I’m suppose to see and look forward??

"Money is the root of all evil"...

I saw a disturbing scene this morning that affected my mood.. I decided to skip breakfast..

At PL MRT station this morning, I saw this guy who looks a little low IQ asking for S$1 from every passerby.. He says he need S$1 for bus fare.. Is he desire for money, or greed for money?? Not many gives.. Maybe 1 out of 20.. Does this mean Singaporean have no sympathy? Would you give him that dollar? If you give, are you falling into his trick?
