First day at work!

My time orientation is getting worse in SG somehow!

Official Work time is 845am to 530pm.

Reached HR office at 820am, waited with 2 other people for their first day @ work too =) One was from Finance, the other from Customer Service.

By the time people started strolling in, it was like 915am =)

One good thing about working at the company I interned before at, is that people are roughly the same and the environment is the same =D

Due to the space constraints in the department, I actually got the chance to sit at the big boss' table (who moved into the room)! It was like a super large desk! However, the computer seemed quite slow =x microsoft 2000 .. lots of shortcuts that I used in Excel 2003 not available! =(

One silly thing I did today! I can't believe I FORGOT that my knock off time was 530!!! I thought 545.. PLUS.. no one else left at that time! But everyone urged me to go back early when I have the opportunity. haha.

Lesson learnt: do NOT take the bus home =x took like 1.5 hours to reach home!

Greedy or conventional?

Praise God!

Just when I got all disappointed and afraid about not getting a job...

God answers prayers.

Amazing how God listens to our prayers and comforts us in times of need!

The good news came in at about 9:50am, a simple call that offered me:
6 months job probation from company A that I needed to respond by Monday

Was thinking of whether company B might offer. So I took forever to call because they kept transferring my calls or not answering.. or the phone would just hang up =x

Apparently the boss from company B was in reservist. =x But a job offer MIGHT or might not be sent by next week.

My current dilemma is whether I should 'doubt' that the job offer from company A. To just accept or to delay the job acceptance and wait for the possible job offer from company B?

Am I being greedy or just conventional?

Don't put my picture on the web! I'll sue you!

While waiting for my dad to fetch me, I saw this vending machine, accumulated with at least 4 different drinks. Several people tried to buy a drink in order to take advantage of it. All failed. So I stepped forward, took a shot and went back to the business of waiting.

All of a sudden, this auntie shouted, "oi! 你不要乱乱拍照！不要放在网络上！不然，我回告你的！"

Puzzled, I looked back at the direction of the vending machine. "HUH?", I thought to myself.

Suddenly the auntie appeared right in front of me, continuing to accuse me and threatening to sue me.

I remained calm and replied that I had only taken one picture and it was as above. Since she was so hysterical (and frankly, made me all the more curious as to WHY she was so insistent), I showed her my folder which only comprised of 7 pictures, and kept pointing out that I only took ONE picture and it was the above picture. She couldn't even see that the picture was the vending machine. Still she insisted that I took her picture and WARNED me that if I post it up or something, she can sue me.

All this time, I kept wondering how she might explode if I called her crazy out loud, or try to insult her asking her why on earth would I want her picture, not as if she's pretty or anything. Haha, good thing I had self control =-p so tempted.

*on a side note: we got a Wii! =) am sweating like a pig (yes, i feel like I'm fat) as I play baseball with my sis now.
