A Random Day At Work
In the morning,the admin lady walked past me.
"You got nothing to do again right? you looked dazed."
"Got. See, im reading the planning doc for my client. I got a job for the next 3 weeks le."
"umm is it. no le. u r staring right thru ur screen. and your table got no files on it"
"I REALLY got work to do!!"
"your acting skills not polished enough."
After lunch,the manager gave me some financial statements to go through, for spell check and punctuation check.
Minutes later,
a senior came right up to me n said "you got nothing to do right?"
"No le. im busy"
(Cant u see the piles of papers on my table and that im trying to read?)
10minutes later,another senior came right up to me and said "can help me do something?"
":S im busy"
"busy ah? will be done soon?"
"nope"
(they really cant see the piles of papers on my desk)
The colleagues sitting next to me said "wa. i think its ur face le. we all sit next to u, they just go straight to u and asked u if u r free. i think u look very free."
Bloody hell.At lunch, some guy called my phone and asked for my mom's number.
Call back in 1 hr's time. i cant rem her number offhand.
at 2pm, he called back. "Actually, i can speak to u too. Its the same."
"umm but im not free at the moment. Call back at 4pm"
at 4pm (the guy is either damn free or damn punctual),
"hi, im from the bank of china.. blah blah. we are offering some prizes in lieu of the china olympics..."
"oh i din know that my parents had the credit card fr BOC"
"oh, no they dont. u have to sign up."
":S. sorry. im not interested"
"oh but why?."
(huh? why? coz its the bank of CHINA)
"its very rare that the olympics get held in china. u rem, the first was held in tokyo in 196something, seoul was held in blah. now its china! and china chose to hold it in 2008 coz its an auspicious year.......yadayada."
"umm so whats the minimum salary u gotta draw to get the card? i dont earn much"
(trying to turn him off like what i did to the other credit card guy)
"i earn less than 30k per annum u know?"
"oohh thats enough!"
"u can apply a supp card for ur dad too!"
"huh? umm i think he should apply one for me instead. maybe u should go to my dad instead then."
thats how i got the guy to shut up.
well, it has been a long day.
