We haven't exactly been updating this blog save for pictures of food.

Now that we're nearing the end of work, all 3 of us (or maybe just me) seems to be a little less patient and tolerant of the nonsense that this place and the people bring.

I've gone from the goody-two-shoes "okay no prob anything" to "watever i'll have to do it anyway i need no help no assistance just leave me alone i'll complete my duties" kinda attitude that i know aint really right but who cares anyway. Seriously, i'm amazed at the level of crap i can take as usually my no-nonsense limit is pretty low. Maybe i've adjusted to the lifestyle here where their labour/employment laws are such that employers have absolute power to fire anyone without reason so their word is kind of like law. it's irritating i know but resisting the urge to fight back openly certainly paid off. now that i know what they want, i'll lower my standards so as to treat myself better. soon i'll be gone and they'll realise that all the while the 3 of us are the most hardworking of the lot (because that is considered a virtue in Asia) and what's left behind is a pool of less competent and committed staff that can bring the ratings that they put so much emphasis on to the dumps. like YEAH. whatever.

Pam has decided to stop the second job so she save her sense of hearing that can be put to much better use back in Singapore in the world of music. Jo has adopted this i-dont-care-i'm-going-to-ask for (aka demand)-rest-on-the-last-few-days-that-we're-here-even-though-they're-going-to-charge-us-for-whatever-transport kinda attitude and she doesnt seem like she's going to change her mind anytime soon.

at work we're not as accommodating to their orders and i think it's good that we're showing our displeasures so that they know that Asians aint that easy to bully and that we'll willingly do what you want us to do for the sake of money. technically we're still doing it for the sake of money but well, certain issues got in th way and i think it's about time we prize other stuff higher than the work that we all obviously dont really enjoy doing for such a long term.

our dear Jo has started this fake chinese calender thingy with the countdown to the number of working days. on each piece of paper she has some funny smiley face drawn with the yeah signal and a piece of "motivational" we-can-do-it kinda paper next to that. like how nice. at least i know that the end is sooner than we think it is. the fun IS coming (like i'm not having fun being silently rebellious).. muahaha

k. till next time then.
