remember I wanted to apply for a weekend shift to accommodate my university studies? well, I don't know whether I wrote about it in my blog but I told people about it.

Anyway, I've got a reply from the acting manager.


Just in case the photo isn't clear, the manager can't offer me a weekend duty at the moment. Instead she gave me another duty which is Mon-Sat 1800-2200 (on Sat, 1400-1800).

It's better than nothing I guess at least the duty is fixed and I can plan ahead of time. Besides, the duty is bag-tipping which is the duty I like most. The disadvantages of hvg that duty is that I have to sacrifice my Saturdays and I reach home only at 10.30 every weekday night (except Monday of course).

This, is the major 'happening' in week after class started. Otherwise life this week was bland and monotonous. Class has started and I'm doing reproduction module this term. Come January and I will start my clinicals.

finally an update..haha

Sorry for the blog hiatus and yes Phil, my mould has grown mouldy and i can smell that whiff of mould from faraway.

Anyway, I have been quite busy lately.

1. I was at a friend's wedding last Saturday and it was really good! Will post up photos soon if I have time.

2. my bike front wheel got stolen! I am super duper angry to whoever who stole it! I wonder how much it will cost to have it replaced but I reckon it will be around 70 pounds. I've found some wheels for sell on ebay but they dun come with the disc brake. sigh.....

3. Classes are starting next week! I am so. not. looking. forward to it. I can't imagine the thought of having presentations every week, writing a report every week and reading lots of research papers and meeting my project supervisor for discussion which ( I heard) will last for 4 hours! oh nooooo...I wonder how am I going to cope with my work and uni

okie dokie. I think that's all for me now. Will post up pictures soooooooooooon I hope.

work again

"Ting, Ting, I can't finish my fruits, so I left them all for you."



these little small acts of kindness...

make me feel work in RM enjoyable =)

partners-in-'crime'

This is a picture of the toilet cubicle at my workplace.




why the toilet cubicle picture you may ask? Well, the story goes.....


**********

Colleague 1: Ting, Ting, now it's your turn to go toilet or walk around.

Colleague 2 (imagine the Yorkshire accent): Yeah. I've already gone just now. He's already gone for a walk. Now it's your turn.

me: ermmm....oooook (rather hestitant)

Colleague 1: Just sit outside at the bench there, hold your handphone to your head, pretending you are making a call.

Colleague 2: yeah yeah, now it's the right time coz all the managers are at their meeting (nodding head and looking at me intensely)





Finally I gave in to their persuasion and took my bottle with me (as an excuse to fill my water).

Halfway on my way to the water dispenser, I heard,

'TING!! TING!!'

I looked back and saw two of my colleagues, both with that mischievous grin on their face (y'know the kind of wide smile with teeth baring and all, yeah, you get the picture), both wide-eyed, both with their hands held up, both with their 10 fingers opened up to me.

'10 MINUTES...10 MINUTES!!!'

************

That's how I ended up in the toilet cubicle not knowing where to go.


Welcome, my friend, to the world of skiving.




PS: it's finally FRIDAY!!! I'm finally coming home tonight after being on OT for 4 consecutive nights! You know what, this week, RM was very understaffed in the night shift as a total of 24 people (!!! just night shift alone) decided to fall sick. Well, it's up to you to decide whether the sudden adversity was intentional or not. But, next Monday is a bank holiday (hint hint *wink*).

long term contract

A continuation from this post.

I received my long-term contract from RM!

I'm thinking of changing my blog appearance. I'm starting to become sick of my blog banner.

I was going through a few templates last night but in the end decided to stick with my current one till I have 'inspiration and motivation' to change the appearance.

But who knows one day I might impulsively make a major revamp on the blog.

For better or for worse. We shall see.
