being online
Yesh, I'm finally up online in my office. Spare me the torture that had beget me the past week where I was totally uncontactable. I mean totally. Being uncontactable has been quite difficult to explain to some contacts of mine. When I explain that I am unable to use my handphone due to work commitment, they will straight away shoot the question what I am working as. That done, they are puzzled as to why a data analyst cant have his phone by him. Only when I explain that my working location is in a highly sensitive chemical manufacturing plant do they begin to understand my position. Even then some people still ask. Chemicals are not my forte but all I have to say here is that RF (radio frequency emitted by handphones and electronic gadgets) and some of the chemicals in my plant could equate into a BIG BOOM!
Haha. So now that I've finally got my laptop, I feel so much better. Except that I got a cannibalized laptop. DamN! Meaning I didn't get a brand new one. Nevermind, a laptop is still a laptop - its my first, its my IBM thinkpad ;)
Oh 1 thing got cleared at work, I am not the youngest in my department of 40 odd people. During a meeting, I had introduced myself as the youngest in the team when suddenly a girl (who happens to be sitting just across me on my right) ask whats my age. & there you have it, I am not the youngest. Ha, she declined to reveal her age but oh well. The only confirmation is I'm still the only Malay in my department. Not many Malays so far in the company that I've seen. Hmmmm.....
Being contactable and being able to blog is such a relief you know. *strokes my blog* Hahaha.
By far today has been good. I still feel sleepy as its the monday blues but at least I can sidetrack with the laptop. Otherwise its just staring into blanks and blanks of papers with small words on them. Oh and shit, my work is starting to pile up. Got lots of reading up to do and SOP's to attend to by end of the week. What am I still doing here online. Haha.
oh....to relief my stress.
Emotions are some times best kept in check by being peroccupied with nonsensical stuff such as what I'm doing at work. Oh talk about nonsensical stuff, Lady Hackwrecnch...how's your new nick coming along ah ? =)
