MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE
2007-12-12 02:47:35
Christmas is coming soon and my supervisor ask me to change the header for our company website to greet everyone. I started my draft and think. I always like white Christmas. So, no doubt. My design will go for white and blue. When I nearly finish the design. She came over and said that the design can’t be used because she don’t want it to be special for Christmas as we are in Malaysia. A season greeting will be enough. Then, I was thinking. Season Greeting. What should I put in for that? What kind of theme I need to use. According from her description, she what something like party, celebrating, some gifts, some ribbon and you know what appear in my mind? Haha … A lucky draw contest! A Perodua Kancil at the center and many gift boxes around. Haha…a big title above with shiny effects and blink blink like that… (more…) ...

‘GANG’ CULTURE IN OFFICE
2007-12-04 21:52:08
Well, according to previous post about the disco in office. Here I will share some ‘gang’ culture in the office. I admit that most of the company out there having this kind of issues or problem (Depend on how you define them). I can accept that IF there is only among colleague. But when it happen in company management, it is going to make me crazy. You might remember those old post here about the dart competition and carom competition. During that time, I understand that the motive of the HR is to build up some team spirit. But, I still can’.see any improvement. Take the monthly development meeting as example. Until now, we still stand with our department and they stand with their gang as soon as we enter the conference room. We only play with our department during game section and they also the same. where is the team spirit? again - “if you want to play with us, come and join us la. Condition is, you have to listen to us and accept our culture.” So, th ...

2007-11-28 20:22:44
I really can’t hold anymore! Can you believe this? Early morning in the office. The woman girl ( Because She is married and keep pretending and act like a 17 years old girl….) turn on the speaker and play those Disco Song. That really make me headache….can’t focus, can’t think…If I am allowed, I will go there and unplug the speaker and point to her nose ‘ask’ her to STOP!!! I really don’t know how to talk to such people. Come on, you are in office. Techno Music in the early morning? You just back from disco or you took medic? (I think you know what kind of pill I mention). I really can’t stay in this company anymore… Let me tell you some incident:- Can you imagine that a finance manager (40s woman) is telling her staff she want to go to toilet with ” I want to go to shh shh” in the open office.

Another good song from Fish Leong (???). Talk about her, I already since when I started listen to her song. I think when I was in secondary school. I seldom listen to local music actually but not because of I do not support local product. I prefer Cantonese song. However, there are still some of them are my favorite singers. My favorite female singers are Penny (???) and Fish Leong. I like Penny because of her unique and special vocal and song presenting technique. She has the talent to come out with good melody and good lyrics. She is talented. For Fish Leong, I believe her vocal is the main attraction and also the selling point. You can feel the sadness and sound like she always get flu. That made her voice unique and easy to recognize. If I am not mistaken, she start her career in Taiwan but not in Malaysia. This is because last time there is no Astro Talent and Superstar like what you all chasing now. They had a hard period of time to get their first album in Malaysia. ...

Beowulf

I went for this movie today with my girl today in Cathay Cineleisure Cinema. No doubt we were hoping for the exciting 3D action/animation pack to fill up our sight. I think this is one of the big movie that make people to walk into cinema recently as it was nearly full house there. The film is rated PG-13 for nudity, profanity and violence. In the beginning of the movie, you already can feel that those people’s skin look like plastic and their eyes look weird..just like dead man. My first impression is, am I coming for a cartoon..something like Shrek? OMG….after that, a big and ugly monster, Grendel breaks through the door and starts killing people because of the noise from human. An action pack and sure, blood everywhere. I think I can use the word violence here. The monster is really ugly and still … look so fragile, feel like you can broke it’s bone with your fingers. (more…) ...
