*Yawnz* I managed to wake up at 7am today and myself ready for work by 8:05am. I checked my JAE posting results over the net and I got into Electronics and Computer Engineering at Ngee Ann Poly. Woohoo! Actually, I wasn't happy nor sad, well I have no idea why either. Maybe because that isn't really what I want to do? L0L! I don't know what's up with me, probably just the SianZzZ feeling. Can you believe that I'm actually thinking of appealing even though I got into my first choice? L0L! Anyway, I managed to help Mal check his posting results as well as I had his IC number. I wanted to help some of my close friends check as well, but I didn't have their IC number and none of them picked up when I rang them up. L0L! They were probably still sleeping soundly. L0L!

I arrived just on time for work today, but it was a pretty bad timing. I went into the call centre when my supervisor was giving a "lecture" to all the temporary staffs. L0L! Yup, so it wasn't a very good timing, everyone ended up staring at me. Well, I didn't manage to figure out what the "lecture" was about, but it doesn't matter to me because I'm still surviving. L0L! I still continued on the SAFRA renewal assignment till about 3pm. I managed to get 3 renewals, 2 of which were by credit card. It was pretty bad though, but at least it's still better than nothing. L0L! After that there was a 45 minute briefing on the new assignment that I was supposed to do. It was basically calling on behalf of IBM to invite IT managers to a seminar. L0L! It wasn't very easy as I thought. I had 15 uncontactables, 2 who couldn't make it on that day and 1 who wanted the email to be send again. L0L! Well, I'm still surviving though! =]

I had lunch with some of my female colleagues and I managed to find out even more interesting stuff about the company and people in there. L0L! Yup, a whole lot of politics for you, but Shawn isn't going to give a damn about all this politics! Shawn will just do his job, get his pay and disappear after that. L0L! I don't have anything against anyone in the company yet, because I'm good to everyone and vice versa. I hate these kind of politics though, it's so darn unhealthy! L0L! That's why everyone should be like me! L0L! Imagine a world filled with Shawns, wouldn't that be the greatest thing on earth? L0L! =P

I left the office at about 6pm today because my supervisor was teaching us the procedure to follow each day for this assignment. Yup, but the good thing was that he said he will compensate us for the half an hour. Woohoo! More pay for basically doing nothing. L0L! Just kidding, Shawn's time is very precious, so every minute is money! L0L! My beginning to sound like a businessman already when that isn't the route I intend to take. I'm hoping to become a pilot or engineering unless I see a good business opportunity awaiting for me. You know what they say, "An engineer can be a businessman, but a businessman can never be an engineer." So even if I dislike engineering and choose to do business in future, I can still do it. Hopefully, I'll get to be a part time model as well. That will definitely be great! =]

What I'm hoping to gain through working with this company is not only the money, it's more for the experience. At least, I'll know what the working life in a office is like. Yup, and with this experience I hold, I might be able to find jobs easier in future. The money is good to have, no doubt, but the experience is something that will always be there. Now I understand more of the working life, and the politics in the company. L0L! Ok guys, I'm stopping here as I need to make a couple of calls to some of my friends before I knock off. So do take care and god bless~! =]
