Blog EntryIt's All About SurvivalMay 4, '08 11:37 PM
for everyone
There's a saying that goes "Time flies when you're having fun". Fun? I am definitely NOT having fun. The past 4 months was anything but fun. And see how fast time has gone by.... blink of the eye and we're 5 months into 2008. 

Things are not going well at work, in fact, it's getting a bit out of hand. I used to feel in control of things, but with the recent changes in the work environment (I am not talking about the renovation or whatsoever), everyday is just like a day of survival in the wild... watching our backs in fear of "poisonous" arrows from predators ... watching our steps so as to not step on anybody's tail (or shit)... and also watching our heads, in case some bird sitting on top of the trees decides to drop some dung on you... it's all about survival.

Some of you might wonder, "Not so bad right, Justin seems happy, what?!".

Yes, I might "look" happy... but in fact, i'm feeling like shit inside. Sometimes, there are moments whereby it so damn painful just to put up a happy front in the presence of family and friends. Hypocritical some might think... not by choice. I wondered how it feels like to be showered with care and concern once in a while...

Usually, episodes like this will just pass by rather quickly... one or two days weeks MAX.... but of course, that was with the help of "comic therapy" from Jason Hahn... so i got a rude awakening when I visited his webbie recently and discovered that it has not been updated for quite a while.... WHERE IS JASON HAHN???

I've been a huge fan of Jason since his last novel "Table for Three", a collections of anecdotes about his life with Amanda and Saffy. The thing i liked about his writing is that it's very localised... and sometimes when you're reading them, so can almost put yourself in his place.... almost like a secret fantasy... haha.

Nonetheless, i need my intake of comic therapy and I need it now!

7,776,000 more seconds to go.

I know exactly what you mean. And, oh my gosh, it is May already!?

There is no need to watch our backs, no need to fear "poisonous" arrows, no need to watching our steps. Feel free to step on anybody's tail (or shit).

What is the worst that can happen? No promotion? No bonus? Demotion? Have to find a new job? Everyone blames me for a shit task that cannot be done in the first place? Boss, you want to fire me? Fire me and you are going to take over the crap? :P Ha ha ha!

Ok, maybe dun step on anybody's tail (or shit). Everyone is just trying to survive.

Do watch your heads, in case some bird sitting on top of the trees decides to drop some dung on you. Tell me, I will like to take a photo.

PS: Want to go holiday or not?

PS again: What's with 7,776,000 secs?
