I'm A (Very) Dedicated Employee

I got stomach aches today and my visits to toilet is nothing less than 5 times and counting. This means, I got to drink lots of water and also isotonic drinks!!! (Proven effective to me). Just to tell you one story here, as an employee who is on the J.O.B. (Just Obey Boss) and working for his boss for survival, I have to answer calls from my big boss(es) regardless where I am and what I am doing. Well, most of us do that and some don't. Nevertheless, while in one of my visit to my favourite dung toilet room answering nature's call, I got a call from my boss. It goes something like this....

Boss's Secretary : Hello Joseph, boss wants to speak to you.
Me : Hello, err...Ok.
Boss : HELLO!!
Me : Hello
Boss : HELLO!! HELLO!!
Me : Hello, sir.
Boss : I want you to instruct the HSE to start preparing their HSE Programme for the project.
Me : Mmmmh...(meaning a "Yes" in our culture. You can imagine, what others think if I say "Yes, Yes, Yes," etc in the toilet. But I use "Mmmmh" for other means as well especially when you are answering nature's call, sort of killing two bird with one stone).
Boss : I want you to prepare the Organization Chart also, so that we can discuss in tomorrow's meeting.
Me : Mmmmh
Boss : HELLO!!
Me : I'm listening, sir
Boss : Got it?
Me : Mmmmh!!
Boss : You know all these are part of the milestone payments and we need to get them completed ASAP.
Me : Mmmmhhh!!!
Boss : Okay, I'm currently evaluating the Cabin Offices and you please get these things organize for tomorrow's meeting.
Me : MMMMMMMHHH!!!

We finished our converstion and I finished my "business" there. It's multi-tasking in a way. Ahemm, you know, I'm not disgusting but I'm just a (very) dedicated or stupid employee.

Diddy FC Bowling Tournament - Part 1

Just last weekend I spent my time attending Diddy FC Bowling Tournament. Lots of people, sponsors, goodies, the screaming, etc. It was one of those things that I missed for so many years. Other than knowing Bad personally, the rest of them, mampus I don't know lah. Luckily for me, out of nowhere my friend Sue, came out and say "Hi" to me. Ah...at least I now have another one I know there.

Me : Hi Sue...long time no see
Sue : Hi...hahahaha, yalah..long time no see
Me : Are you playing?
Sue : No lah
Me : Same here...
Me : How's your David Cook....you fanatic ah?
Sue : No lah..not fanatic but "obsessive"
Me : Ooooh....your facebook is all about David Cook
Sue : Hehehe...Obessive...not fanatic
Me : Come, let's have a drink. I belanja u.
Sue : Ok...
Me : Any drink?
Sue : Milo please...

So I went to the counter and ordered the drink..... and then I checked my wallet. All RM50 notes. With unfriendly look of the cashier, I with my kulit muka yang tebal tak tau malu rushed back to Sue for help.

Me : Err...Sue, I got no change lah. I don't want them to curse me early in the morning for not having small notes. You got RM10 or not?
Sue : Hehehe....got......nah!!
Me : tq..tq....malu lah...

I owe you Sue.
Hehehe...

Babies, Beijing Olympic & 080808

What do Hailey Jo Hauer and Xander Jace Riniker have in command?

Still can't figure it out?

They both actually have created history by being born at 8:08 a.m. on the 8th of August 2008, and weigh 8 lbs, 8 oz (3.8kg). How about that!!!

Hailey Jo Hauer is born to Lindsay Hauer via cesarean section that was scheduled for 8 a.m. Friday morning at Lake Region Hospital in Fergus Falls, Minnesota. According to doctors that is a "once in a million" case as this date will come only once in a hundred years.

Xander Jace Riniker was born at St. Luke's Hospital in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is the eighth grandchild for his mother's parents.

In other parts of the world, as we all know, Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony in China kicked off on 8th of August in 2008 at 8.08 p.m. and 8 seconds. The GMT is even +8 for China. So what happen to me during this time? Errm, I was still in the office checking my emails!!
