Cheese and chips are comfort food

If I were to be asked why I am planning to quit, I'll tell him half-jokingly - because of you. Thanks. And then I'd feign to say, just kidding. But it leaves a bad taste in both our mouths.

I have been wondering for quite some time now - for how many hundred ringgit less of a salary he earns than me (is it RM500? Is it RM300?) because I know for sure what the starting salary is and I have not jumped significantly - does it really justify coming late, going on a breakfast, lunch and then tea break everyday? When I demanded a lot for my RM4K bridal package, I was thinking, wow, do I give so much every month of my work?

I wish he would leave instead of me. Ugh!

I previously wanted to take a three week long honeymoon vacation. This would allow me to stroll leisurely around Lhasa for a few days, even if I wanted to take third world public buses to different places around the city of Tibet. Now hubby's boss says, you can only take less than two weeks off for your honeymoon, because we don't know what your work plans will be until we complete the restructuring exercise.

I remembered, back in September, when we were about to jet-set off for our wedding, hubby's big boss said he had to cancel his wedding trip because he needs to present his technical paper at our local symposium. I flipped upon hearing that. What - for your silly excuse of a conference - we need to put our personal lives on hold? For the sake of RM3500 per month, we need to sacrifice our personal time to do more for your group?

Man On, I challenge you to make me redundant through the restructuring exercise. I challenge you to tell me that I have not contributed to the profits of this company. I challenge your managerial conniving character. You are merely following company policy but sincerely what is the quantum of your care for your employees' personal happiness? You as a candidate for directorship should know how to set a comfortable work environment for your subordinates. Give recognition without money - alright so be it, BUT give peace where it's due. I'll give credit that you have successfully transferred the technical expertise from San Jose to this site, but this shall not be at the expense of employee welfare. That we work harder on more projects with the same compensation is a fairly good way of using us. Do not cause distress to your competitors or colleagues or subordinates unnecessarily. We are all contributing as hard as we can to shore up our stock prices. You are punishing the wrong people.

Then again, he is one of the most diabolical characters around - good in the technical/office politics sense, poor in the Emotional quotient sense. That's what you get from hiring all those people who graduated from Intel.

I went into the Facebook of someone I know. He's in a rather high position in a multinational company, but for him, there's no letting his hair down. His Facebook is pretty meagre, there's nothing much except for two posts by his old time friends. It's like an empty page.

There's no job security in these firms. The more I compare this company to other multinationals, the less appealing it becomes. It has just turned into a sweatshop at the turn of the year. The thing about sweatshops is you feel overworked and unappreciated. You don't get good feedback, instead you get elephant dung and when you're through it, you don't even know how you had helped by doing what you did.

That man I visited is a kindly old man, but maybe, just maybe he allowed his young charges to step all over his head. Maybe me included, I admit. I like his good quiet nature, although many times I wish he would whip us up more the way I see another man doing for his charges. I recently saw him left out of a leadership class, and it was so painfully obvious the look of insecurity on his face, his steps. This is one war he will lose, and I feel pity that he will lose the war. Is there no place for good people in these companies?

Men must know that women today marry their other halves not because they think their other half is equal. Women marry men whom the women feel are inferior to the women. This is so that the pecking order stays and women remain in control of their own lives and can continue singledom from where they left off between marriage and divorcehood.

It is not nice being divorced, but neither is it nice to be with a man who is stubborn in his mindset WITHOUT realizing how little his mindset affects his wife. And if he is too stubbborn, then the lady has no problem leaving him, so that he may find himself another woman who feels inferior to him, so that he may lay his stubbornness unto his more inferior woman.

This is the very reason I suspect, why some women, whose husbands look at other women, do not feel threatened. They are sure that should the husband stray, they can say, "Good riddance to bad rubbish" within a blink of an eye and not even cry for more than a month over their poor judgment. So divorced women don't get anymore sex out of their life. So what, sex is disappointing anyway.

Comes graduated from Aussie university. Fat. Always looking out for her own ass. What could her boss possibly have seen in her enough to hire this lady?

Why do we have to work with people we don't like? The best is to avoid working altogether with them. Go solo and find alternatives. Never ever get stuck due to circumstances only she can help you out in, because she isn't going to, and we'll always have to find our alternatives. If that's the case, then can we please work away from each other. There is no way I'm going to work with her, and I don't have to anyway. This is so CLS-OTK. They will never work together. One should go.

How many ways do I hate her? Once she took my passive probe and lent it to another person, who lent it to another person, and so on. I remembered lending her my probe because it was left as a note on her bench. When I asked back for the probe, she said she didn't know where it was and didn't bother to find it back. Do you want to borrow a probe from me in future? Ask and see, gooseliver.

Recently I tried to get a temperature forcer from her because her activities had died down whereas mine were behind schedule, and she deliberately took up a debug support of a colleague, who is also supporting offshore, just so's she could hang onto her high-end temperature forcer for dear life. Omigod, this is one wacky old spinster...

Lucky for the lady, gender and names of the above story have been changed. But details remain true. And I have been wanting for the longest time to let this be known - anyone who marries this fatty poo is scraping the BOTTOM of the barrel.

I cannot remember so many by-elections within the past 18months as compared to any other years preceding it. How could so many elected representatives die from heart attack?

This is foul. We may have a conspiracy of people drugging these politicians which then lead to heart attacks and kill them. How many more politicians who had heart attacks but survived? Is there a hitlist out there, for Opposition and pro-opposition BN representatives?

The mortality rate of our politicians is very high! And the death is usually by heart attack. Who is behind this? And if this were true, then I'm very impressed that our government can fabricate such advanced killing techniques.

You have no idea how annoying you are to me. Let it stay that way. Think that just because you can't find the answer, you want to fling your frustration my way? I'll let you know, once challenged, I rise to the occasion. Pig! Or pigs. Get off my back, damned you.
People who have never experienced life on the production floor of a factory need to find a justification why they shouldn't be sent there.
You need to leave this job. You hate it and you are not good at it. Find something you love and want to do. It is not more food, more tours that you need. You want recognition for what you are good at. Go out and find it.
