I snapped like the last of my working headsets/headphones yesterday. booo. That's about three or four in a year on the average (including the ipod headphones that I cut and thought I could join back). It still hurts to think the record lifespan was 2 days.
I'm trying to look for a all-in-one phone. camera. mp3 player. java. edge2/gprs. expandable memory slot, preferably SD card and not memory stick. oh yea. camera. Anyway it's going to be a .. out-of-camp phone. (Please tag if you know of a place to clone under-the-table sim cards.)
-------------------------------------------------------------
There's like office politics which I doubt I'll understand in the near future. Some people are rather bitchy. Few actually. Half the time they would rather sit around and pretend to be busy (by, I assume, making the cubicle look messy and scrolling up and down old senseless spreadsheet documents) than to help out the others so that everyone can go home early. They would talk about things that hover around "getting qie4(cut?)".
bitching and whining, "ta1(he) qie4(cut) wo3(me), knn/tmd."
Yes I know how much nicer it would be to slack around, but we are talking about going home and, who doesn't want to? Besides, some 'clerks' are not as busy as the others. There are just varying yet fixed probabilities(??) of occurrence for different cases that we handle. When you finish your work just help, please? On top of that, your perception of time seems to alter by that wee bit. It seems to pass abit faster.
Half the time I finish my work fast (if you use your head, the effective duration for my job [and not the other 'clerks'], is about three hours a day.) and tio suan by the seniors. "Wah, damn slack ah." "Wah, you got alot of time ah." Retarded mentality. Shouldn't one be rewarded if he can finish his work fast? Apparently not. And now you see the link why one should look busy. I do not advocate that though.
I think I'm getting chronophobic. It's really dreadful to stare wide-eyed at the screen (that has only got intranet) and tune in to the ticking of the huge clock. "I'm wasting time, I'm wasting time!" Doesn't help to know that you are the youngest there in the office. I'm still 18. The other XXFs are like, 20, 21, 22, 25. And stare at the mini-applet I created on my com that strikes off the dates to ORD and tells me how many days to go, how many days have I been in service etc.
The last thing I'm quite unhappy about is the policy of having to wait around for everyone to finish work before going off. It's a freaking waste of time! At least half an hour is lost daily. An average of an hour a day. Basically there are people who would take their time to do their work, and when it seems late, they tell you they would be staying-in for the day and that everyone should, then, not wait for him anymore. Either that or you have people who change their clothes really slowly. Fucking hell. There's no point in holding us all back. Afterall, for me, the slightly anti-social one, I would break off in a fast walk upon stepping outside the camp.
I live about 30 minutes (inclusive of walking from my doorstep to my bunk and a 10 minutes train ride) away from camp and hell yea, I LOVE GOING HOME EARLY, even for ten minutes. What more, the others live much futher away and they don't seem to treasure their time.
grievances!
