Work!

Has been exciting only because of the fact that its my first real job. Otherwise its pretty mundane. I slave for Bishan North CC, so anytime you guys wanna do a prank call you can call Bishan North to piss me off. Im expected to organise things, which I can do, but rather NOT do, as seen by the state of organisation of my room.

I meet a shitload of extremely weird people in the customer service/admin line. The weirdest one yet was this guy who wanted to be a CC volunteer and seemed slightly deranged cuz he was giggling to himself when we explained how volunteering worked. He couldnt understand what "volunteer" meant cuz he kept asking whether he had to pay to join, or whether he had to come down the moment they asked him. You had to be there to see it for yourself.

Colleague wise, theres Andy, a 27 year old chinese speaking fella whos very prim and proper. Theres Callis, who sounds like she got her name from an STD, but she is in fact quite bubbly and attractive and she doesnt at all have the demeanour of a manager, in a good way. Then theres jonathan, a fat guy who holds the same rank as callis and holds a business degree with a minor in philo. I enjoy talking with him cuz hes got real interesting views on life and politics.

Also present are the stereotypical "mother" of the workplace; An elderly lady by the name of Madam Teo who knows little about computers but does everything so well by the sheer power of her 40 years of experience. Then theres Hatta, a malay guy whos quite the pleasant joker, but serious when it comes to work I guess.

These are the few Ive come to work well and know I guess, as far as I can for 2 days. More to come soon!
