Let's try a different font and font size yah? ^_^ Just went out to get a haircut and so grub with georgie and cal...thank god for georgie's car...wish i could drive too...so much more convenient..haha
now sitting in my S1's office, thinking about how i'm going to continue with the rest of the week...i mean, i was already reprimanded by CO twice before lunchtime! What a perfect start to my day yeah? Important start to everyday:
1. Wake up.
2. Brush teeth & wash face.
3. Have a good breakfast.
4. Don't forget to top it all off with a scolding or two from your boss...helps the circulation they say.
I was contemplating staying up to try and work on the PowerPoint slides which are needed on Wed, but then I realised that the updates I need can only come tmr...so wth, just do tmr lor...at most sleep late lor...
Today's scolding was a classic case (as I've been bitching to all my colleagues) of you should know VERSUS i really don't know. So CO gives me the "you mean you dunno" look, and I look to S4 for help, and all i get was a look of exasperation and a "don't look at me, you're on your own my dear boy" *insert British accent here* look. In the end, CO sends the whole jean-gang of us out of his office to return later when "we've sorted out things"...
At this point, the level of frustration faced by l'il ol' me reaches high levels, close to critical mass...but i steel myself to calm down and suck it up. I mean, I was already prepping myself for the whole weekend that this was going to be a sucky week...so it could only get better right? ...i sincerely hope so... *gulp*
hopefully, this kinda thinking helps me through this week... i have come to realise that my job and my boss' job are both really important and it's really difficult to have one person do the workload of two people...it's just not done lah...really wish my S1 were back now...(i bet that's a first...most people would die to have their bosses away for a week).
My branch is having a ball of a time though. they have the longest breaks in the mornings, and people even disappear for fair amts of time. i would bother if i could, but i can't...too busy... To be absolutely honest, i'm terribly disappointed with my guys...the bastards leave early, work so little, and yet complain so much. Of course, there are the occasional gems, but that's the problem...these gems are OCCASIONAL...rare...elusive...
for instance, my oh-most-wondrous specialists locked me out of branch this evening and left for dinner..they just clean forgot abt me, and locked up the branch and left...no one bothered to ask if i was leaving already, or if i had anything else for them...sometimes i really wanna freak... these people are the same age as me, and they are behaving like shits...
i know we are NSFs and that we are going to ORD, but really...must their behaviour be that of total social morons? no decency whatsoever (at least fucking act decent..you don't actually HAVE to be decent). i dun even know how to scold them or tell them off or anything...it's just so immensely exasperating that you are exhausted just from being exasperated, so you never actually get the strength up to scold the buggers... It's just so unfair sometimes... *xj thinks he will just continue in an endless loop if he continues...so he decides to stop*
ok lah, i believe i have ranted and raved enough for one night...i expect i will be posting more often these few nights as i continue to document my Hell Week... Good Luck XJ...you gonna need it.. *xj thumps chest in a bid to up his courage* *xj doesn't feel more courageous*

Awww....reminds me so much of my days in the army, cept our DY was the village idiot, and the only thing he took after our S1 was ability to delegate. Everything.
Cheer up, know it sounds baaaad, but somebody once told me in the army, that when shit hits the wall, it doesn't stay there (well unless you've somehow screwed up your dietary intake), it slowly slides downwards. Yeps, take it down on the men...well, at least let them partake the warth!
