Out, out and Away
Ok, some quick updates b4 getting down to biz. My cough ~ 80% recovered, shld sae to the extent of can play beach VB without coughin my lungs out,hahaha. 28/4 was a busy dae for me with 2 happy occassions happening on the same dae. 1st joyous occassion~ finally 1 of us is a Tow Kay Neo!! (congrats to Fion!) Yeah, my poly kaki of 11 yrs has opened her nail lounge with a parter at Raffles City Shopping Centre. So for those ladies who like to pamper themselves once in a blue moon wif mani & pedicures, do drop by FE The Nail Lounge (#02-27) and lend some support to my kaki ok…Xie Xie in advance. (Eh, Fion ah rem to pay me some A&P fees ah,kekeke)
Next happy occassion was the wedding of Johnny & Christine. We had fun at the banquet, saboing the groom and of coz our party dun juz end at the banquet. We went for a chill out session at Boat Quay and yup, we had FUN! Too bad we din take any pics at the chill out session. Cant blame us, we were too busy playin games, singing, drinking and playin pool.
Ok, down to serious biz…I’ve officially tendered my RESIGNATION!!! Acty I did it on Mon after lunch, givin my FC ample time to digest his meal,kekeke. And I’ve signed my letter of offer tat fateful evening. So can sae tat everything almost sealed up for me. But den of coz, after my FC gt over his initial state of shock, disbelief, anger and helplessness (I m not exaggerating lor) over the PH, he came back for a counter offer (I knew he would do it) wif the post of asst manager.
Now, the counter offer was quite tempting but den its pointless for me coz I simply cant work wif a person who I dun respect. By now, most ppl would noe tat the oni person I cant work wif will b my mgr. Now, many will sae tat they dun understand y I cant continue working wif a person whom I’ve worked wif for almost 2 yrs. Well, ppl change and ppl do change for the WORSE. Some ppl might ask, am I tryin to be too hard on an old lady??? Come on lor, if any1 encounters her kinda attitude n behaviour, one will simply lose all basic respect for a human being.
1 classic example…She distributed out some documents to the staff and when 1 staff informed her tat the documents shld be redirected to another staff,the old lady yelled at the staff sayin tat she has no idea wat kinda work or portfolio the staff is doing. Pls lor, accts mgr leh, nt accts clerk..Hw can mgr dunno wat kinda portfolio the staff is having, like tat can b mgr meh??? The prob wif tis old lady is tat she likes to shoot her mouth off without realising tat she’s shooting herself in the foot. And tats the reason y nowadays we are not toking coz I will juz state facts tat will pull down any funnie/weird acts she’s tryin to put up.
A person who dun gif basic respect to others dun deserves mine. So no point working wif some1 who oni acts out her title but doesnt carry the title wif duty and responsibility. Like wat I’ve told my FC, I dun c a point of me and my staff working our butts off to provide the pay check of another person who’s living off us. She gets the credits, we get the shit. Outsiders who dunno still tink tat she’s the one holding the lead, in actual fact her pace has slowed down so much tat she’s left takin her own sweet time while the world progress on further without lookin back at her.
I might not noe wat kinda environment I will be stepping into but I guess sometimes we nid to take a gamble now n den. It might be worse than my current situation but den at least I did something to rectify my current plight than to sit on it and whine. Moving forward might not be the best choice but its the right choice for me at tis moment.
~Marching ahead to unknown land. For better or worse, time will tell~
