Irritants and Irritations

Sometimes, seemingly harmless things can be really big irritants and cause big irritations.

This happens in the office all the time. It also happens at home. Even when we are on the road, we are rarely spared. Ditto for public transport like the bus and MRT.

People react to these irritants and irritations differently. Most of the time, I growl and shout. And I am growling and shouting NOW!

GRRrrrr....... AAAAAaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CountDown to June 2009

For the past 2-3 weeks, I have been swarmed with many, many work assignments. It's not a pleasant feeling knowing that this is but a manifestation of the boss' reaction to my impending leave. She has been increasingly showing her “ 既然你很快就要放假了，我就先让你‘做死’！” mentality.

What to do? Just let her be, lor.

A colleague recently asked me why I won't consider working part-time. I shared with her this 先做死你 mentality and the resulting treatment and explained, "I'll probably die having to do full-share work in half the time!" Also, it won't make economic sense dashing between home and office and getting all even more stressed up, all for a small portion of the pay.

Right now, regardless of the 先做死你, I am counting down to 1 June. 10 more days to go, then I think I should be able to get some breather and hopefully, regain some sense of sanity which has been elusive for a very long time now. Yeah.....
