Blogging at work..danger danger.

I don't normally do this. Blogging at work I mean. But hey, there's only 4 of us, in the whooolee building. There's like ..I don't know, 3 or 4 companies working under the same building but somehow mine is the only one running.Boo..

Look at those empty parking spaces! I can park whichever way I like, tadakk dah nak scratch keta langgar sapa2, god knows how loser i am at parking my car.

So to keep my spirit up and stay optimistic (see, I'm making an effort), let me tell you 10 cool things bout my job. Scratch that.(I'm a noob, I don't know how to scratch a word in blogger? How do you do that? literally put a line on top of a word?). Let be modest and make it 5 instead (actually, I don't think I'll be able to list more than 5).

No. 1 :
No dress code...wohoo...pakai kain pelikat pun boley...You see, I always have this image of Msia where we have to wear formal clothes to work (except probably in those companies where they have casual fridays)...but here, it's friday everyday!. So no slacks, no blouse, no baju batik necessary (u can even wear 'clothes that poke eyes'...eheh..xbaik xbaik..). Come as you may..huhu...

No. 2 : I have no exact number of annual leaves. Ok emm, how's that a cool thing? I'm the only one with this weird position where I'm not an employee yet I'm somehow required to do some employee stuffs (and be exempted from other stuffs as well). The cool thing about it is that, it also means my holidays are unlimited (or limited depending on how you see it). So it's like I would inform my boss of my leaves rather than actually applying for leaves. Cause it seems like I don't have anyone to apply my leaves from. My boss is not exactly my boss. I call her my boss but she's not exactly entitled to give me any leave. (I avoid thinking bout it cause it's rather complicated to explain)

No. 3 : We're away from the city. Again, how's that supposed to be a cool thing? I think I like working in a less crowded place. It gives me a piece of mind while I work. The sound of cricket (actually there's a machine in our lab that sounds like cricket) and the slow hum of fume hood, they're music to my ears (ok I still wish there's a radio though).... You can't even hear the traffic outside, or the loud music blasting off from shopping complexes. We're pretty much isolated but hey the city is just 10 min away (by car of course).

No. 4 : I'm greeted by tiny zebra fishes everyday. They're our pet. And we love them..mMUahhHA..Seriously, it's cool to have aquariums..those would be the first thing you see when you enter our lab.

Meet bedah, eton, maimon, salehah, zakaria, ali baba...etc etc

No. 5 : The people here are cool. That's the least I could say because I've only been working for a month (almost!). They could be categorized as easy-going peeps. There was one time at a restaurant where we usually eat, a colleague asked the cashier if he wouldn't give us anything for free. The cashier said "Alright, it's friday, go ahead and take the watermelon (sliced ones of course)." "Are you sure?" "Yeah, yeah, go ahead"....When the rest of us reached the car, he (as in my colleague) gave each one of us a slice of papaya.


Huh??? How could he mistaken watermelon and papaya?? *Slap heads* We couldn't stop laughing until we got back to work.

Poor guy, the joke was on him till today...
