of bitching, lying and resigning

We welcomed a new addition to our team 2 months ago.

The moment we sat down to have breakfast with her on her very 1st day, she had started bitching about the boss. She used to work with her long long time ago...

Imagine our surprise when she started to reveal stories bout the boss... gosh!

Her 2nd day, she bragged during lunch how she scolded the boss earlier for not being specific about something. She repeated the story around 4 times!

Soon after she started to dig stories about all of us... Maybe it was just her nature to get to know a person that way... I dunno...

Then we started hearing stories about her passing remarks about us...
... how she doesn't report to any one of us (coz she's more senior) so we should not instruct her to do anything (hello... we didn't 'instruct', we asked politely!)
... how she doesn't fancy her current roommate at the office
... how one of us is a bimbo coz she's an ex-stewardess
... how some of us are bossy
... how one of us is very tardy
... and many more

What makes it worse is that she can just walk into the bosses room and close the door behind them. It makes us wonder what transpires behind the closed door.

There was this one time when she left the room, she went to one of us and told her that how she rat on one of us.

REALLY!!!

Everything was fine and dandy before she came to the company.....

So, after all the above, it was just natural for us to avoid her totally. We tried our best not to get in her way during work... We avoided her during lunch...

Then you know what happened?

She went to the boss and told her that she felt sidelined by the team...

Just like a school kid!

To make the long story short, we decided to have a thrash out session with her. To confront her once and for all coz all these while we had just avoided the confrontation.

And you know what she did?

She lied through out the whole session! She twisted all the stories over and over that at the end of the day it all just doesn't jive. She even had the guts to say that one of us is the culprit for everything... That one of us was the one who created the whole tale!

OMG... How twisted can she be man...

We were nice enough not to shoot her down there and then. We just let her continue with her lies and let her go off thinking that everything was settled. She even said that after this she hopeto work together with all of us. We just ok'ed it.

That was last Friday.

And suddenly on Monday, she came to work all teary-eyed and handed in her resignation letter!

wtf laa kan...

I mean, if you tak buat salah, like you claimed to be, then why are you resigning?

Seriously!

Of course Mdm Boss did not accept her resignation laa kan... Instead she gave her a one week off to think things through....

Gosh... I seriously hope all this drama will end soon so that we can go back to normal. I seriously hate the office politics... I hate all the bitching and lying that has been going around for the last 2 months. It is really taking the toll on me.

Maybe she'll go ahead and resign.

Maybe then we can get back to the piling work!

All my clothes have shrunk!

I woke up one morning and found out that I can't fit into most of my work clothes...

I tried on 5 different outfits and none felt right. It's either too tight at the chest or waist area... It was so frustrating to not be able to fit in my favourite pair of pants...

I ended up wearing my 10 year old MNG drawstring wool pants... Thank God for drawstring pants!!!

Went back to my mom's place last week to curi some of her clothes (since they are mostly loose).

However, that doesn't solve all my problems just yet. I still have more shopping to do!

HELP!




binx: can i just wear a sack?

My life since then....

We found out that we were pregnant around 3 weeks ago.

I was a week late and had asked Mr Judge to stop by the local pharmacy to purchase the home pregnancy test. I'm already a pro at this, since I've been buying the product on a monthly basis by now. However, instead of purchasing 1 package, I just grabbed 2 instead.

Went back home to test it out.

Usually, this would be the most suspense part. I was really expecting for only a single line. Instead, there was another faint line on the stick...

Betul ke nieh?

I tore open another stick and did the test again....

POSITIVE!

Washed the stick and went to show Mr Judge the result. I can see his face turned from confused to happy in a split second.


Since that day...

... I can no longer eat eggs and beef without feeling queasy inside
... I can only eat McD's nuggets for almost a week
... I can't get a peaceful sleep every night
... I've stopped drinking coffee - the hardest sacrifice so far
... I feel tired all the time
... I need a shoulder and back rub on a daily basis


I really really hope that this would be a smooth sailing pregnancy... If it's anything like my mom's three experiences, then I can count on having a good one too, Insyaallah.

*********

I've been doing a lot of reading, on the net and also books. However, I think the best book that I've read so far is "Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy and Childbirth" by Jenny McCarthy. Yeah.. THAT Jenny McCarthy. The book is really honest and tells you everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that people sometimes don't tell you about being pregnant. I love it!





binx: no, this is not gonna be a pregnancy blog (if I can help it)

2 lines that changed my life forever....

binx: alhamdulillah

dup... dap... dup... dap...

That's the sound of my heart, beating fast...

It is not a regular heart beat...

I can hear the beat while watching the TV...
I can hear the beat while eating...
I can hear the beat while playing Wii...
I can even hear the beat while trying to sleep...

It is really getting to me...
dup... dap... dup... dap...

It makes me feel so agitated...
dup... dap... dup... dap...

Things just don't seem right...
dup... dap... dup... dap...

I felt like barking at the next person who crosses my path...
dup... dap... dup... dap...






Is this a sign of caffeine withdrawal syndrome?
My last cup of coffee was one week ago!
:(





binx: i need my caffeine fix!

I is Tired

I am tired….

I know I have been blogging about being tired over and over again.

But seriously… I AM TIRED.

I work 6 days a week (most of the time, I will arrive home after 7 or 8 p.m.).

You would think that I would have the second half of Saturday and the whole of Sunday to relax…

NO……

… the sink will be filled to the brim with dirty dishes.
… there will be 2 baskets full of laundry to wash.
… the clothes than needs to be fold and iron.
… there’s also the cleaning, vacuuming, sweeping & mopping work to do.

These chores do not include cooking (if any) and any other impromptu tasks that requires my time and energy…

I am losing my mind and sanity for being over-worked and un-appreciated, at work and also at home.

I need a holiday soon!!!




binx: *sigh*

Say No to Office Politics

I am tired of listening to people bitching about my boss behind her back...

I am tired of watching people stabbing other people's back without any shame or regret...

I am tired of being caught in the middle of a cold wars between one department head with another...

I am tired of people trying to "tai-chi" their work to others when all they do in their office is just watch DVDs and LLB (look like busy) all day long...

I am tired of watching people kissing the Big Boss' ass and rat on their co-workers...

I am tired of being screamed and shout at for something that was so minor just because that person was pissed at my boss...

I am tired of people who thinks that they are mightier than the rest. Just because they are a GM (General Manager) or even an AGM (Assistant General Manager), they think they only answer to the GMD (Group Managing Director)! Wake up and smell the flower laaaa.... You still have a few levels more to climb! That is if you get the chance to climb at all...

I am tired of working with mentally challenged people... It is like working with morons and clowns on a daily basis!

I am tired of having to defend myself for everything I do...

I am tired of office politics...

I AM JUST TIRED...




binx: need sleep so badly....
