The Coming of Green~
Life is kind of crazy right now. I am actually looking forward to donning my greens and get a few days off that frustrating work.
But then I know again, when I go back, its not gonna be nice.
Anyway, the new logistics supply chain is actually bullshit because not all is in place. Last time I use to work only 2 weeks to finish my logistics planning. Now is like every now and then.
Anyway, recently I just bought a new computer desktop after my old one died on me.
In the past, I could have done a system recovery, but this time it just keeps restart. I was wondering if it was a virus as I never had an anti-virus on for a very long time. Lol.
If you are wonder "it serves me right" for not installing one. I guess it is. Especially when the anti-virus installer was bought for me a few days ago.
But then again, it might not be a virus. It might be hardware crash.
So, after my old Compaq died. I went to hunt for a new one with BB right on that very day.
Got this bargain, with a discounted trade-in using my old compy immediate after I saw it a power Acer desktop.
22" widescreen LCD screen. Latest graphics card. Wireless mouse. Wireless keyboard. Fastest processor (I think). Fastest RAM. 1 TB HDD. A new subwoofer sound system for the desktop.
It was suppose to be 1.5k with one year warranty after discount. But after getting all the MS Office and warranty increased to a total of 4 years. It came to 1.8k.
Its still expensive. So I am thinking of ways to subsidise off the price I paid further.
So I am think of selling my 21" LCD from my old desktop which is working very well still.
I am selling off the sub-woofer system as well. I think my 10 year old mini-combo sound system which I attached to, still can provide the quality sounds just as well as before.
Anyone interested can call me to ask about the prices =D

If everyday is an holiday...
Good Friday is a public holiday. It is also a day when Jesus died on the cross.
I never know why they say its "good". Maybe because its a "good day to die". Maybe its good because its a holiday.
But how I wish I have more holidays. Perhaps its time. A good time for someone to die.
And whenever I think of this person, I think he lived long enough. He's old and lived a good life. He's not even having pension. He's still having his honourary political position, earning hundreds of thousands just for pure political consultancy when we already have two SMs.
From what I noticed, when he makes speeches nowadays, he's also getting slower. Slower than he was in around 80. Not like a powerful speaker when he was in his political prime, "Merdeka! Merdeka!".
I need a new public holiday. Its time man, come on!

What I Want
Recently work is piling up even though I am not procrastinating.
I usually have a policy of not bring work home no matter what.
And I do not like to work OT after a long day which makes me tired and more prone to mistakes rather than being productive.
I can't say I am stress now because work is neverending. I just felt a certain sense of dismay, and I am wondering what am I working for?
For money? So far this job is the best paid job I ever had. And of course, I wanted to progress my career. But then, no matter what I said or I do now, my diploma of multimedia just doesn't make any reason for my employers to progress my career.
I felt this after I was told I can't be a permanent staff as there is a hire freeze. It doesn't make sense. We just hired a few people and they tell me there's hire freeze.
I'm no idiot. Obviously, it could be time to look for another job. But I am relunctant to look for a better job in such an environment when economic crisis is still out there.
But I really wanted a permanent job that I can feel secure for my future.
Maybe I can further my stdies but something is definitely blocking my way.
I'm stuck. Unless I struck 4D or something which I can "kiao ka" everyday from then on, I'm stuck unless I go back to the multimedia industry which I never trusted it to pay well, or even basic worker's welfare fulfilled.
The thought of a more appalling job made me hesitant to go back to the design industry in Singapore, which is hopelessly hopeless, unless you join a big co. with big name.
Maybe I should set up business.
I think set up hawker stall also more fulfilling and can even earn more than a bloody collar-worker. When you get fed up with life, then can add more expired chilli in you food as well and make people's ass-o burn (this is a joke).
Anyway, less hope some light at the end of the tunnel appears.
