Is it a happy chinese new year or a dreadful one? I certainly feel the latter one would be more applicable.
Two days ago was supposed to be our project consultation day with our boss. After noon time, he was missing in action, and until the day before only did wx and I manage to sit down with him to discuss about our project. Holy shit comments on our recommendations, probing us to make more solid recommendations. He brought to our attention the importance of technology, and how we can make use of the technology to impove the company and its product offerings.
Obviously, my company did not have any website and I would very much like to recommend one. At another point, my boss casually remarked that it was not feasible to implement a good computer system. [True enough, my office's computer system CMI - cannot make it!]. It's an utter conflict of interest. At one moment, boss wanted to make use of technology to capture business opportunities. At another moment, he said good computer system aren't important!
My blood was boiling at that time, but my ability to put on a pretence if I want to has never failed me. And just wx and I left the room, I frowned and boss walked out of the room behind wx as well, and most probably he'd seen my frown! But I pretended nothing again, and any way that's my free expression.
Just 15 minutes before I call it a day, boss requested me to edit Perth itinerary for NJC. I was utterly irritated as I was touching up on my ITP report! And I finally knocked off at 6.30pm. It was the first time I worked overtime for 30 mins long.
But one thing good is that we got to go on almost a week-long holiday as we do not have to report to work until friday. And why did boss even request us to report on sat when all the more there won't be much (or even none) work to do?
After work, I met up with br and LMH at plaza sing. Had fastfood as dinner at macdonald's b4 heading for orchard. Watched Zodiac at 2115. It was a stupid show on how the 12 animals got their positions listed in the Zodiac sign. Simply dumping my 9.50 bucks.
Reached home at 11.45pm, and continued with my ITP report after bathing.
Today is CNY eve, and I'm checking into Costa Sands Pasir Ris.
My state of mind now: in total blankness and tireness.
Pyjamas time!
