Okie, tendered my resignation today. Didn't get the chance to speak to the people related to this matter. Tomorrow will be the show down!
Tuesday, July 29, 2008
After much considerations, I've decided to tender my resignation. Felt that it'll be better for the company to get the right person to fill the hole to move forward and also not to waste both our time. I admit, it's sudden but it's not surprising!
My letter is upped and it's down to them to speak to me after I hand over my letter to them. Well doneded, time to sleep!

2 days no blog coz my life lighted up all of a sudden. Saturday was a bloody one, OT after OT, well who to blame?
Went to meet Kelvin for lunch and went to cut my hair (finally). Went Kun's house after that and played FIFA Street. Very fun and I'm d/l-ding now. Dine out at Bukit Timah where Bo, Kun and me had a spread. Actually not that much, but I feel like those gui who are coming out soon. Had supper at West Coast Park's Mac after that.
Went to watch Dark Knight yesterday at Marina Square. A show too chim for me to understand but it's a movie which will make u think about something big in life, moral principles. Watched the K1 Drifting or wadever event it was and somehow someway, we are on our way for our dinner.
Managed to meet up wif Yew, was quite some time since we met him. Ate at our 老地方 and went touring in Kun and Bo's house. And that concludes my weekends.
Today... Bloody blue day... Customer, customers and more customers. Well who to blame? E-Gas, cheena guyz or tuners like me? CNG, when r u gonna make it big? Shall keep myself entertained liaoz...

Believe most of u out there would be happy if this happens to u. Got my position confirmed by the company one month before my probation ends. A S$200 increment but still not the desired pay most of us want.
My Managing Director said that I'm lucky to be able to talk to him like that, where u won't be able to see the MD at other companies so often. First thing shot up to my mind was, of course lahz, your company is so small.
He "open" my path ahead of me. Might be training DDF in Thailand, E-Gas in Italy and get to dismantle engines in China. If I'm good enough, he might set up a workshop for me to manage. That's wad he called profit sharing, BUT if business is no good, I gotta answer for it.
Alrite enough of work, still needa go back on my off day tomorrow. So shitty...

Haiz...
Tuesday, July 22, 2008
Hmmmz... Not very good. Got frequent headaches nowadays. Are my days numbered? Haha think too far le...
I'm still surviving, badly. The thinking of sacking my boss is becoming so true now haha! Ok nothing le, shall go sleep to recover now...
Imagine last minute kena send to Tuas and when u reached there, u need to go home to take your passport and go Malaysia. Monday is already so blue and my company juz make it bluerer for me, suck thumb.
Went to learn another system, another half f*** one. Kun received a call last Saturday to work on Sunday. He was told to inform me but I didn't receive any call from my colleague. On Sunday 0850, I received a sms from my manager. The sms was from my HR saying I needa be in Tuas on Sunday at 0900 to learn DDF. I hack care it and ignore the calls from the boss' son, who is sadly, my friend. Went out wif my frens instead and gave him a call onli at around 1245, saying I juz woke up and juz saw the sms. I'm still the same old me, I dun like to entertain last minute request.
The DDF package was well prepared but the components were yet to be revised. In the end, learn onli like 50% of it. Today, the "tomato" package was unprepared, which lead to a shortage of components. Same, learning onli 50% of it. Really pissed wif the company, which they claimed to be a listed one. So disorganized, wasting their money and wasting my time.
Reached SG at around 2045. Continued working (or should I say standing around) until 2245. They finally invited the Italians to help troubleshooting some of the unsolvable cars. So bo bian and suck thumb again.
Had been thinking of tendering my resignation even before finding another job. Well will think thru again. C'est la vie c'est la vie c'est la vie...

Yet another degree holder. Xin Hui is back from Aussie after completing her 1 year Nursing Course.
A mini meet up wif her, Ben Sun and Melissa at West Coast Park's MAC for lunch and went to KBox. Gals nowadays have dinosaur appetites. We ate quite a lot juz in a short 3 hours.
My onli weekend is gone, yet again. Sianz...
Saturday, July 19, 2008
Firstly was to "invite" me to Tuas to learn DDF and now, no more Civic Centre for me. Continue wif this bloody DDF and hope my Sunday is free (juz days after I declared myself free).
Now my boss wants me to catch up and learn more so that he can move on wif his yet again new project. He have a lot of ideas and projects in his mind but some way some how, I'm involved in all of them. Believe he hasn't wake up from his dream to make up his bloody mind.
Went to watch Red Cliff wif Bo and Kun at JP. It's a nice show if ya interested in 三国演义 or another plus point which Kun likes will be 林志玲. But this show is onli first part of the 2 parts movie. The arrival of the other part should be in Jan next year. Happy waiting...
Thursday, July 17, 2008
No OTs in 2 days already. Believe they are preparing us for the battle next week after our road show at Civic Centre this Fri - Sun. Hope it will turn out smoothly and onli interest parties come to ask.
Will be learning something new (finally) tomorrow, at a deserted place like Tuas. How sad can it be. Heard from Suphan that this Thai guy, J or Jay, is very gay. Even Suphan dun know whether is he a gay or not. How "exciting" for me to find out. Wait for my further detailed report on this guy or izzit gal tomorrow!

Alrite, Civic Centre until 2200 this Saturday. Gonna promote our CNG company, thankfully this Saturday onli. Credits to Sharul who volunteered to swoop wif me, believe he wants the double pay on Sunday. Not for me as I would rather take a rest haha!
Now that my company has switched to a 5 1/2 days work week, felt sianz but at least a great news for me. I'm on duty onli for alternate Saturdays. My Operation Manager and I will be rotating to take charge of the garage. Ok so next Saturday I'm off, anybody dating me =p
Took a nap since I came back (today no OT!) but I'm sleepy again. Alrite shall see ya all soon then!

My bike came back wif damages, after he went to ta bao dinner for the rest of us. Was ok when he showed me he broke my bracket of my back light. But a poem of vulgarities came into my mind when...
Me: "我的脚车怎么了?!"
Po: "哦我骑的时候本来就这样，哪有什么怎样。"
I will never believe my bike is 本来就这样. Now that my gear cable is broken, how am I gonna travel on main road wif such turtle speed -.-"
Monday, July 14, 2008
Ok back to my world of boringness. Had so much fun that I could not adapt to my usual life style. Pictures of my tour in Perth will be up but not so soon hehe. Alrite time to rest myself (even after sleeping for like 12 hours).
Wednesday, July 9, 2008
9th July 2008. The Perth date has finally arrived! A 5 days break for me, out from this stressful environment.
Always gek tio in my workshop. Seeing people throwing smoke grenades when problems arised or didn't even wanna lay a finger on it as they find it too difficult to solve. U must be wondering why am I so stupid to pick up shits left by them. Me myself have been wondering am I been used by them or izzit I'm too kind to be bullied. Actually I dun mind at all as it will onli benefit me in the end.
Now that me and Suphan is not around, shall see who's gonna grab these shits to wipe your face. Watch it man fatty!
Okie enough of that, hope I can tong the cold weather in Perth. Hope to see u beloved readers soon haha!

Another call from my HR.
Susan: "Benjamin, when's your passport expiry date?"
Me: "Err next year June, why?"
Susan: "Are u ready to go oversea now? Maybe this week? I'll be sending u to Thailand for around one week for training."
Me: "Oh no, I'm on leave this Wednesday to next Monday, will be going to Perth."
Susan: "Oh then how about next Tuesday? I'll send u there next Tuesday."
Me: "Err ok. Am I going alone? Or is there anybody going wif me?"
Susan: "I'll send another person down wif u."
Me: "Oh ok can."
Susan: "So when's your passport expiry date?"
Me (-.-"): "Next year June."
Susan: "Ok can I'll keep u informed again."
Luckily going to Perth in 2 days time, if not I'll be packing my bag now. Not say reluctant to go, but I'm still the same old me, I dun like to entertain last minute "offer" like this!
Okie shall start packing a little!

It has been some time since the 6 of us get together. The worrying thing for the 5 of us is to meet up wif GM. Not sure wad the rest will think of him but as far as I'm concerned, I hope that he will not try to dig out how my other frens are doing. How disappointing of me to think in such a way, after knowing each other for 9 years. Can onli wish him all the best and dun do foolish thing!
Went to change Aussie dollars, finally, at cow car water (Chinatown). Not so lucky as the Aussie dollars shoot up quite high, so my S$650 is onli equivalent to their A$493. 3 more days to our Perth trip, but places to go are not finalized yet. Hope our last minute homework will turn out to be fine haha! Felt remorseful as I told Al and Bo that I'll come out wif the itinerary. Do have some time even though I'm working like 6 days a week but juz didn't do it. Hope they 大发慈悲 and forgive me haha =p
Juz 3 more days and I'll be able to take a break, a big break.
Suphan went back to Chiang Mai for holidays and unfortunately, all problems are arising. More misfortunes kept coming up.
Firstly, seen this customer who came here 5 times, for the same old problem. Secondly, a car which was able to run on Friday night, couldn't even start the engine on Saturday morning. Wonder how and why this self-destruction took place.
Further things which left me more annoyed were the disappearance of my colleagues. All of us know there were probs but no one, yes no one is willing to lay a finger on it. This shows how much they depended on Suphan. Luckily Sharul came later to help out, unlike the one who chose to go test drive when customers came and another one who went back home bcoz the engine could not be started. Try asking for my help in future.
Went dry swimming (mahjonging) wif my parents last nite. Left wif almost nothing in the first 2 rounds but reoup back my lost in the last round. Well no money involved though haha!
All my Saturdays were spoilt and I shall enjoy my one and onli rest day of the week now!
Friday, July 4, 2008
Cars came, all of a sudden. All return jobs, good job -.-" Still troubleshooting cars done by the other side.
Another challenge ahead of me. A return job coming tomorrow, a car which I calibrated last week. Wonder wad's wrong wif it.
My mental is not there anymore. Though my body is still strong, my mind juz keep telling me to stop working and take a break. Not that I dun like the job, but is the way the company is managing.
Ok shall stop spoiling all your Friday's mood. Yawnz...

Nob is enjoying his days wif his wife now, after spending 2 months working here. The funny and hardworking him has disappeared from our workshop now, and the place is no different from a cemetery. Some how felt how Kelvin feels when I ORD! Hor?
Now that we got lesser cars, the remaining group of us are not as productive. Morale is low as boss wanted the exhausted us to work OT everyday, but asked our manager to control our OT as well so that we wun get paid so much. How scheming can he be.
Wonder izzit Nob that causes this whole group to be so lifeless and bored since the start of this week. Or izzit that the company (or should I say the boss) is not paying wad they deserved. Haiz so political...
I'm not in a good shape either. Very tired even though I did the minimum but yet I got sleepless nights. Instead of opening my office doors at 0745, I woke up at 0745. Almost half of my colleagues were waiting for me all this while. All pushed the keys to me, so gotta see my face colour (脸色) then!
Wednesday, July 2, 2008
Pay gonna come in tomorrow. Dun know how the hell they calculate it but juz hope they dun makan a bit from here and there. They are a LISTED company anyway -.-"
Kidnapped to the meeting today. Boss gave lots of prospects, which he claimed will benefit us if we work hard. There's indeed lots of opportunities, but I doubt he'll be that 大发慈悲 and increase our pay. In short, he's juz cheap skate.
Okie gonna rest to prepare myself for tomorrow's battle.
Tuesday, July 1, 2008
Not sleeping well lately again. Some how some way the garage keys are wif me now, can't even sleep till 0730 now haiz...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQYHKILXD4k
Nob and O should be reaching Chiang Mai in another 2 hours or so. All the best to them and their families. Sad sad sad...
