Ever since the CNY had past, work start getting tougher and heavier for me, at any one time the work schedule and time seem not getting enough and easier. Not to mention have to duel with those upper and lower people, squeezing in between cause alot of unhappiness and frustration when things is not done.

Now that things is slowing down, I feel the funny side of things getting somewhere uneasy, say for instant the rules and regulation of the company. Everyone is following it and yet you face the manpower stortage, why? Simple, you report work at 7.00 am, work on a 9 hours routine you left at 4.00 pm, and in my industry, our movement of work is in the evening which normally end in late hour at 10-11 pm, how leh like that.

Upper people know it and start asking reasons why? so you re-schedule the shift to stagger, that covered up the late hour routine and what about me, stick around till late hour also which then you know your staffs know of their duty and doing it well, you leave early yet your phone rang sometimes.

Anyway forget about the small hit-up happening, my main concern is still the office politic, me a simple and discipline man, hee hee you think it's safe, nope nope nope, I also kena arrow on my back. This is hell of a hot topic in where I'm working, day in day out you heard so and so said this, who said that, playing taichi here and there.

I'm a ground man, last place to handle all out-put and always first to handle the in-put, and my job physical and technical work are critical during the handling, did any of those theory and document people know, I don't think so, it been in this format always and just a word or two, you get the shit, hee hee we are like a tank in the army, an elephant, thick skin lor, cannot die that type.

Do you people understand what I'm writing up there? ha ha this is my loh li loh so only, and writing abit here abit there, cannot emphasize too much or else I don't know who from my company read it and I'b getting letter.

Need a little tip from you people, I got a senior staff (more than 15 years) under my care, yes of course elder than me, I should say a lao gwee, OT paid worker but don't always work OT, the most 4 hours per week, puncture both ways in and out, spoken to him and he'll give you grandfather, grandmother story of his don't know what the hell, not willing to upgrade and always choose the easier task to handle, if given a more tougher task and wanted to finish urgent, either he said need more times or more manpower. If I'm not around he'll be idling and not doing and corperating with others.

Now in my mind I was thinking, should I or should I not issue warning letter like other colleague suggested, what ground cause no complaint from others about him and how am I going to deal with him.

At time given benefit to them, he's the first to oblige and act very fast and if it's opposite, hell, he's first to object and this was brought to the manager attention, koaz. Sometimes I just wonder why the manager believe what he said and not supporting my decision leh, this put me in a dilemma, am I the target cause I'm the marked man.

Now my situation here is just concentrate and do my daily responsibility to my abilities, others than things beyond my capacibilities, I don't give a damn, not that I wanted it that way, who give a damn of what I suggested and care for, who gain the credit if things being done well and beyond my jurisdiction, I even have customers called telling me, hey brother, this job given to other company to handle due to late reply from sales on the quotation and why you are not involve in this sales and negotiation. Did I care...er... er...not me, I don't cause they don't even want me to involve, why should I? A few customers also called and asked why now you like disappear, free come down visit them and have coffee or tea la. Don't worry, that I will, free coffee and tea leh, and coffee I don't want expensive type, Starbucks or Coffee Bean will do.
