GRRR!!!

I've gotta say this man...

Who ever thought I would be faced with a rebuke for working too fast?! In Singapore some more! Wah lau! Yes, I didn't type wrongly. Someone say I work too fast. I think he wasn't very happy but he tried to be friendly. *bleah*

K, I think Bingjun knows this la... but if he doesn't, he will after reading this. Haha!

This guy I was supposed to work with at the warehouse, he's in charge of scanning the barcodes on boxes of packed cosmetics that are to be shipped out, to either other countries or locally, to all the big shopping malls. My job is to move these boxes from the packing counters to the pallets that they're assigned to. And to know which pallets each carton is assigned to, he needs to scan it first... So, there he is, taking his own sweet time to scan, and sometimes just standing around looking at the boxes already on the pallets for GOD-only-knows-what. No, the packing counters aren't empty. On the contrary, they're so full the packers there had to put their packages on the floor. One of them even brought her own pallet behind her so she needn't wait for us to move it away!

And there I was, standing around, not being able to do anything, keep having to bug my supposed in-charge for things to do, which he doesn't too coz he's got his own hands occupied too. And you know when there are things to do but only you can do because only you know what's going on and stuff, and only you know where things are and where they need to be? Ya, I think he's like that. And I don't blame him (supposed IC) because he's a nice guy & he's hardworking.

BUSY PERIOD IN THE WAREHOUSE AND I'M STANDING AROUND WITH NOTHING TO DO!!!

Anyways, there were twice when the scanner guy had to go away for abit... once to make a phone call, once to answer nature's call. These 2 times, he handed me the scanner to do abit of work la. And not that I want to hao lian or what, but each time he went away & passed me the scanner, I managed to clear the packages at all four packing counters! Can you imagine that? All four before he came back! It's not that I work fast lor. It's just... HE WORKS SLOW! *sigh* I think ah, if this goes on, as in, I always have nothing much to do, and I find another job elsewhere, I'm gonna quit. And if the boss happens to ask me why, I'm gonna say because I always have nothing to do and I don't wanna waste my time. Actually, before I do that, I wanna ask if I, being a part-time worker, am able to come as I please. Of course, I'd let someone know if I'm not coming la. I have a feeling that they might allow, but then again, I'm always known to be overly optimistic. =)

There, I splat it out... *phew*

Went to Shawn's place to get my NB shoes. Haha! I didn't know they cost $42 sia! But I've got credits on my 11B! Yay! Free shoes!

But free shoes on Monday comes at a price. Shawn is teaching tuition today... and it's the sec 4's... so... yes, I saw her. Well, not her her. Just her legs. Yes, I can recognize her by her legs. So I had to phone Shawn & ask him to bring my shoes out for me to try outside la. I wasn't that affected today as I had been in the past Sundays la... but I really hope that she's sleeping and didn't realize I was there, and that she didn't hear my voice & be affected.

*sigh*

Avoidance isn't a solution... but it delays the need for one, albeit painfully.

Anyways, I shall not dwell on the pain... (oh, I've got physical pain too... splinters & tiny cuts. Haha!) Free shoes free shoes... now I can go running!

Running away from reality... heh heh heh... *grin*

(edit)

Oh, and for the record, I went groceries shopping and bought multi-grain bread, Smucker's Goober Peanut Butter and Grape Jelly spread, and 1L Meiji Low Fat milk to go with my Post Pebbles cereal... all under the influence of the girls at Manors... except for the Post Pebbles cereal... =P Miss you all... and communal too... free jam spreading service... =) *sigh*

Love me if you dare... 22:59
