On 20th June, JUST a day I received that good news from HR dept regarding an increment to my salary, I heard yet a devastating rumour ABT ME!! Below is an email extract to ehem.. "my doctor." *winkz* Me apa lagi ah.. Me terpaksa tinggikan suara ah. me dah geram. (I have enuff. I have no choice I have to raise my voice a bit. I am already fuming mad!) Me ckp (With my almost wanna cry voice, I answered) to my colleague, "From where she hear da stupid news?! Why she anyhow say? Did she see me went in to LST's (da lawyer in-charge)'s room and hand over da letter?!" My colleague senyum (My colleague just smiled) trying to cool me down, and told me, "Just leave it. Keep cool and keep this matter to urself. Dun confront her. If she asked u then u can say whatever u want to say to her. If she didnt ask, just keep cool and quiet. She will get her retribution." ARGH!!! GERAMNYER.. Baru smlm me received good news from HR dept pasal me get increment then this stupid rumour pulak yg me dgr! (Grrr... How maddening! I just received good news from HR dept regarding my salary increment yestday and now I am hearing this stupid rumour!) Me suspect that she got da wrong idea ah. My ofis mana ada partition and my telephone extension is shared among 5 pple and da person who picked up da phone is that colleague yg ckp me nak tender. (I suspected that THAT COLLEAGUE had got da wrong idea. As u are informed, da office I am working in has NO PARTITION and a few of us shared an extension. When YO from HR called me, THAT COLLEAGUE answered da phone.) So maybe dia fikir (So maybe she anyhow predict) da HR dept call me to tell me abt other things - u know, if u are tendering, HR will call u to inform you how many of days u are left with etcetra lah. APA SEH! WRONG INFO! (WHAT LAH! WRONG INFO!) THEN BROADCAST TO ALL DA PPLE. Me can keep cool tapi kalau dah over da limit... ME AKAN BETUL2 BLOW MY TOP nyer... ... Tak kira ah colleague tu pangkat makcik ker pakcik ker but if dah really over, me have to say my right. Correct? (I can keep calm and cool but if it has gone overboard, I WILL DEFINITELY BLOW MY TOP.. DUN THINK I DARE.. I dun even care if da colleagues of mine are elderly and has to show respect.. if really over da limit, I have to be firm and say my right!) P/S: Sorry ah if me bothering you. Me mcm nak call ajer nak luahkan tapi memandangkan both of us are working, tak per ah email ajer.. (Sorry, if I am bothering u. I am thinking of just calling u to vent it out but because both of us are at work and have loads of work to do, I will just email u.) I AM SO FCUKED UP! WHATS THIS?! PLEASE! I HAVE ENUFF OF PROBLEMS. I HAVE COMPLICATED FAMILY PROBLEMS AND U PPLE KEEP ADDING PROBLEMS! What is it that u pple are envy of me UNTIL u pple can come up with this STUPID RIDICULOUS rumours that I AM TENDERING?! Readers, I know. There is politics everywhere. But u do not know that da politics I am currently enduring is WORSE! If u dun believe, go ahead, come to Donaldson and try working here. Within 6 months, pple will start to backstab u. Part of me want to leave this murky shit place. Da other part of me tells me to stay, besides, I just got myself an increment. Its not nice to leave when ur bosses has agreed to give u an increment. FINE. I WILL BE FIRM FROM NOW ON. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Another few things to add... Surfing da net and reading emails ARE TWO different things. Like I'd said there isnt any partitions so ... argh!! dun wish to say it anymore!!! I CANT STAND IT LAH. If she is abt my mum's age, I can understand. Coz most of da pple abt my mum's age, are not that IT-Savvy. Not only is she not IT-savvy! She doesnt know da diff between surfing da net and sending email using Outlook Express (most of da companies using Outlook express as their email interface) I am sending email using Outlook Express and not yahoo or msn or hotmail.. besides I am only typing an email.. I am not typing as if I am chatting... Like duhz.. JUST CANT ENDURE pple around my age who doesnt have a computer at home or email access at home and come to work criticize everybody abt we being very stubborn still playing da internet. Da term 'playing' is surfing or chatting. Not emailing! If I was emailing my friend using yahoo, msn or hotmail, yes...she can do so but she blind or what.. didnt see that it is outlook express? That means, I am sending emails relating to work or watsoever. THE HATEFUL THING.. LIKE I'D SAID NO PARTITIONS.. So, she has da cheek to come over to my place to 'kepo' to see what da hell I was typing! She saw da subject matter and then with a sarcasm, "Siapa lah dia nak send tu." I minimised da window coz ITS PERSONAL..and she's not suppose to do that - PRYING ON PPLE'S PERSONAL EMAILS/MAILS/TELEPHONE CONVERSATION.. ARGH!!! AKU DAH NAK GILA!!! (I am going crazy!) PLEASE HELP!!!
As usual, da email will be in mixture of English and malay. However, I will have da translation embedded in brackets.
Me baru ajer sampai ofis, (Da moment I stepped into da office) and one of my colleague asked me this, "Are u tendering?" :shock face:
Me terperanjat lah. Me jwb, "No." (I was petrified! I answered, "NO!") My colleague said, "I firmly answered her in Tamil, 'NO' but she insisted with, 'Yes. She is.' Again, I told her, 'NO' but she still asserted that u are really tendering."
Me tetap very angry ah (I was still very furious) and said to my colleague, "Why?! She very happy issit if I leave? Whether I leave or not, none of her business what?!"
