Observations/Experiences @ Work~

It had been an exhausting month. It felt like years had gone by in such a short time. I am so dead tired everyday because even after work, I had to sit and write reports that can go up to 20 pages or more. Hence, my word quota is kinda used up. Anyway, in point form some of the things I observed/experienced during this time in no particular order:-

1) I've never stood so bloody long in my entire life. Basically, not allowed to sit for the whole time at work.

2) Overcome fear of heights. I've never climbed so much in my life. During lucky times I get to climb proper ladders. In most others, its just monkey business literally. Step on whatever u can find man. And mall ceilings are ridiculously high.

3) People can be such lovely creatures sometimes and such vile beings in another. Some are kindly. Some are utter disrespectful. But I learnt to be patient and get over it. Just be mature about it. However, I can't seem to understand why people find pleasure in mistreating others. Sadists.

4) Found out that even after you worked so hard for 5 bloody years to pay off an education that you studied so hard for, don't really pay. At the end of the day, your degree is a piece of paper locked in your drawer at home whilst out there you are just... nice version: "Excuse me, miss..." or evil version: "Oi salesgirl, come come *snap fingers*". What can u do? U can't sit there and explain "I am NOT a salesgirl... I have a fucking degree u fucking evil bitch!" Breathe Smile Breathe!

5) Parking is a pain in the arse! Here's my per day parking history in the order from "affordable" to "extremely ridiculous":-
- One Utama: RM1 (outside)
- Midvalley: RM6
- Pavilion: RM10 (outside) and once in Starhill for a whopping RM 27.50!!! I eat also not so expensive laaaa....

6) For the past month, I can eat like a walrus and my clothes still keep getting looser! Beat that ya'all!!! This is one of the best things about getting a job that don't involve sitting prettily in air-conditioned office staring at the pc pretending to work while facebooking.

7) I am learning to get rid of my wonderful sense of direction. Nobody passes 3 friggin tol plazas to get from Midvalley to PJ ok!!!

8) Confirmed that the fashion industry is indeed glamorous from the outside looking in but is entirely the opposite when you're part of the in group. Suddenly, you're either terkangkang bodoh, crawling or sprawled against something.

9) People think I am a Malay girl. And when they found out I'm Chinese, they start sprouting a train of Canto. And then they give me the surprised look, "Why can't you understand canto if you're chinese?" =.= Next time, I shall just nod when they ask if I'm Malay. "Yes, yes and my name is Fatimah bte Nanase. The name tag is tipu one!"

10) Everybody suddenly becomes my best fren. Then when they found out the ugly truth: "NO STAFF DISCOUNT". No more best fren. People are really shit aren't they?

11) Learnt to tolerate people I don't like. U never know when u may need them. Even if you don't like them, it doesn't mean they're not good people. Probably something about the stars not being aligned. haha!

12) I learnt to lockpick cos I champion, locked myself out of the room. Hey, and I did it quite fast. I'm goooooood!

13) Mannequins are hard to handle. Pun unintended.

14) Its stressful to know that your every move is being watched and judged and rated. *shivers*

Okay, there are lots more but I am damn tired...

To be continued...
