Espresso

Finally, after waiting for 2 consecutive quarters, we got our own Espresso Machine. Baru laa taraf kami di sini, the mere peasants (MPs), sama dengan malaun menejemen (Eminems) kat blok A tuu..

This blardy Swiss Co. bought a Swiss Made Espresso machine. Or is it Italian made ? I tell you, with this machine, Kopinya lahhh-zat sekali. Press the magic button, you'll get amazingly super tasty ala BakBintang. On the spot.

I think our Total Productivity increased by 18.7 %. Camni laa gaya nya, we're able to blog more..

Yeehaaaaa. !!!

I believe this is a good step by our HR professionals. Rather than just talking about remuneration$ and the like$, they introduce other niceties such as this. Bghravo2...

Did I tell you we have two nice canteens here ?

Hotel-like, spic and span clean restrooms.

Plenty of Car parks. Uncovered though for my Lambongini

Climate Controlled Factory Floor. It's always 26 degree on the Floor. Takder ler berasap buat testing macam jaman aku dulu.

Young Rajin Engineers.

*****

Ah Fook Kominih ajer yang suwe*. He make most people's life miserable...Cam pagi tadi, aku ada tender tutop pukol 12, alif-sim-ha-wau-lam tuu called meeting on 10, for the tender. Sib baik Ceramics instructed him to be at Our meeting Room, instead of his.

By 11, I still have to fill up harga2 tender, Kominih nih dok merepek tanya soklan macam $^%^%& !!

I dunno, mebbe dia masih kesedihan-kekonpusan, partner in Crime, Ah Yee Kominih, dah kena transfer balek Swiss...

Tungguu, Keterujaan Terbantut - Part One

Hari ni aku datang kerja pagi. Suboh S'pe-ii.

Biasalahkan, me-boss, Ceramics' even earlier. As Always. Kepimpinan Melalui Teladan maaa. And guess what ! Pagi-pagi buta lagi Ceramics dah pass kat aku Da Letter.

Hati ku girang. Hati ku melompat ke langit. Hati ku muder..

(Yabedabedu. Yabedabedu... Hee hee, The materialistic devil inside me emerges. Berapala agaknya Swiss Co. kasik niii ? Boleh ler ngap-tukau satu the me-ngher-lip Gigol* Black Lambong-gini tu. Huuu-uh ! I can't wait)

But, Keterujaan Terbantut. The letter it's clearly stipulated.

"The remunerations package will be revised accordingly and shall take into effect on March 1 09"

But, Eik !? Where's d'Dollah $ign nii ? Mebbe it's a small-print somewhere. Aku tengok Atas letter. Left hand corner. Rite hand corner. Southwestern Corner. Back page. Again, mebbe they missed the enclosure. Inside the envelope. Terkam the envelope !

Hmm.. Takdork ! Rasanya, will have to wait another 36 days to know the exact figures laa.

*****

Nii bukannya complain.
Ni bukan jua ngomel.
Definitely bukan Berleter. he he.
Nii hanya cetusan rasa ajer.

Aku bersyukor aku masih ada lagi kerja kat sini. Walaupun sudah 3 Rolling Quarters, ser projek pun tak masuk. Come 25th of each month, I get a nice comforting sms from HSBC.

".. being salary payment to your account.." Alhamdulillaah.


BTW, Habok-habok sikit projek tuu masih adalaa.

Eeyore the donkeh - Lets Hype Myself up.

Kat mana aku baca nih ? Bunyinya lebih kurang macam nii laa.


Pada Tiap Pagi, Di Benua Afrika.
Bangunlah beribu-ribu ekor Gazelle,
Juga, bangunlah juga ratusan Singa,
Gazelle akan terus berlari, laju, sehingga Singa tidak dapat mengejarnya.
Singa akan juga terus berlari, laju, sehingga dapat menangkap beberapa ekor Gazelle.

Gazelle adalah pekerja2 di merata dunia.
Singa Juga adalah pekerja2 korporat dunia.

Aku bukan Gazelle.
Aku hanya seekor Keldai separuh usia.
Aku ialah Eeyore.
Keldai Kelabu
di Winnie the Pooh.

*****

Just got back from KK. Letih laa Bussiness Trip kali nii. 2 tender kalah. 1 tender postphoned. Brought Back Zero order to office.

Yeeeeeeelek. Zip.

Aku sms ker SHMH (Said Hemsem Mata Hijau), camaner dengan tender baru. Said balas balek. Tender tuu pun Postphoned. Letih laaaaa macam nii.

SalesPerson who has no order is not a person.

Kalau tarak Order, who gonna get whipped first ?
Sales..
Kalau EBIT tarak bagus, who gonna get slashed first ?
Sales..
Kalau Projek~kerja tarak, who gonna get sacked first ?
Definitely Not Sales. Those people at Shared Services. Corporate Comms. Outsourced Services. Back Offices...mebbe

Sales are the Backbone of Company. Tiang Syarikat. This makes me feel good already. Hopefully it'll last till next week.




Merudum..

In Ma Head

Hari ni Selangor Cooti.
Selangor cooti, aku tak kerja.
Aku tak kerja, minda ku tenang, jiwa ku riang, body ku girang.

Sempat la berbasikal around KD ni selama 1 jam dannn 5 minit. Sans kinder. Sans Dilla.


Tapi tengah2 syiok berbasikal tuu, otak aku laju jugak memerah...

1. Macamana nak ayat kat Ah Yee Kominih nii tentang the remaining order. 3 minggu lepas Madam B of GLC2 janji kat aku dia nak kasi order tuu sebelum akhir tahun. Aku pun dengan girang dan terlebih confident beritahu AYK, the 1.4 Million order will come before end of FY08. Semalam aku check semula dengan Madam Bee, senang ajerrr, dia beritahu aku dia tak nak issue.. " Tak sempat laa Jo, I nak cuti nii.." Aiseymannn..

2. Macamana aku nak Mengayat Ceramics nii with the new 50 / 50 position, increment. Aku rasa aku dah terlebih mengayat dia bulan dua dulu. Ceramics pun, pada pendapat aku, dah terlebih increase, bulan 2 tuu.

3. Nak pergi ker tak nak pergi,. err Ganu. Funnily, aku nak Ganu nak tengok Pasar Payang ajer. Tuu jer. My friendly-perky Kerteh-ian sedagher realy ajak aku mit-Familie, datang. Bila tengok-kan hujan yang penuh rahmat, albeit depressing nii, cam malas ajer akuu. Called the hotel semlam "Hujang dok saner" Diaorang khabor "Dork, dork hujanggg"...

Pergi ker tak. Pergi ker tak. Pergi ke tak...


Harapnya adalaa ilham datang ser-dua jam niii.

Law of Contract

Went for Law of Contract Training for 2 days. 2 things I've learnt :


1. Bila munculnya atau berhadapan dengan kegawatan Ekonomi, Swiss Co. akan cuba mengurangkan perbelanjaan latihan, tetapi tidak pada jumlah latihan. Latihan tetap diadakan. Tetapi tidaklah di resort2 peranginan. Cuma di pejabat.

Hmm.. Makanan pula, akan di saji olah pihak Kantin.

We have a reasonably good, brand new training rooms and acceptably good food. The cutleries are heavy and they used real white plates. No styrofoam plates. Alhamdullillaah..

2. Bertapa pentingnya titik noktah, komma, apostrophe dalam ayat2 kontrak. Sila rujuk ayat di bawah sebagai contoh..

Woman without her man
is an animal


Woman, without her, man is an animal.



There's no need to explain further laa.

Moves

Only now, I truly realise that I'm a real Slo-Jo. And this Swiss company is a Fast-Co.

3 bulan kebelakangan nii, dah macam2 ribut-taufan melanda. Nice turbulence. Shitty while going thru it, but quite calming after.

The bosses' boss, Mr Gessle kena transfer balek Zurich.
Madam Marriot kena transfer ker Vietnam. (Hmm, Jangan memain dalam opis. No buts whatsoever.)
Daryl Hall had too much of this region, requesting to be posted back to Sweden. He just got a baby girl. I truly hope, she doesn't look like John Oates.
Lobert is long gone.
KC's taking the whole family to Sydney.

Uncle Bantut from down South gonna take Mr Gessle's post.
Same goes to Madam's Marriot post. There'll be another lady, hail from Down South too, taking over.
In this case, Malaysia nii, nampak sangat gayanya tak cukop qualified people, or IMO, we do not plan.
One young Scandinavian dude is taking over Daryl Hall's responsibilities. And, surprisingly Sami is a Scandinavian name.

Tuu yang buat Ceramics dua tiga hari nii,.hmmm, tak keruan. Tak tentu arah Pakcik tuu.

Me ? I'm just staying put. Indifferent. Watch the storm past by and wait for the nice clear weather later.

Disturbia

Kepimpinan Melalui Teladan hanya adalah laungan tidak kesampaian tempatan. Ianya tidak merangkumi pada Pemimpin Syarikat Asing ditubuhkan tempatan.

Hanya ada, teladan ambangan jijik yang bermain di kepala.

Dan aku loya.

*****

Opis hari nii sunyi. Coooti skoloh..

Ceramics menyelinap ker Penang. Young Engineers' all gone to meet up with Customers. Tinggal aku, Hirsute Zack, dan Zack Hemsem ajer kat opis nii. Nak blog pun takdok idea. Takdok mood. Takdok thrill..

"Tooooooooinggggggggggg.." (this gives me an idea.)

I think now I can explain why the so-call-management doing it while people are around. Cheap Thrill. Thrill of Getting Caught. On the Act. Hmmm,. Ini macam pun Boleh kar ?

SOLD !

Setahun Lalu. Ajim (posing Maut), Arip and Dilla. With the KGJ on the Backgroung.
Dengan Harga Minyak yang udah mencapai tahap langit commulus interruptus, 130 USD / barrel, dan harga beras 15 persen hancor kegemaranku, melangit ke 30 RM / jisim Dilla , we decided to let go our prized liability.

There goes my Kancil Getaran Jiwaaaa..


Sold ! Jual ! Verkauft !


For RM 8.30 per kg. Kira muraaaah dok ?

Mula-mula tuu ingat nak jugak pakai, buat beberapa ketika, KGJ as our RV. Ehem..Recreational Vehicle. Kenderaan Santaian untuk ke Tesco, ke Ikano Power Center, Pasar dan juga taman permainan kanak2. Pabila ku sadari bahawa Operating Expense (OPEX) kenderaan nii melebihi Capital Expense (CAPEX, harga kenderaan), maka bertambahlah sebab mengapa kenderaan ini harus dijual.

Also, the footprint that it occupies while standing. At least 3' by 4.5'. Space buat semak rumah ajer.




Since the Getaran Jiwa's gone, lets have a fresh start. Lets look for one Smooth Operator.


Semalam. Three kids sans the KJG. Kejap ajer bbudak nii membesar. Look at Ajim. Muka macam Paklang
nakal ajer..

I'm a Salesmeng.

Satu petang, lepas balik pada sekolah, Pipa dok tanya kat aku. Bunyinya macam tak puas hati ajer. Macam ada benda yang tak kena.


"Abah, abah, Mama nii, takder besday pun, takder hari special pun, kenapa Abah belikan Mama handphone baruu ?"


Looked, smelt (sp?) and sensed around, my extra in-built-on-top-of the skin-quark-ions-sensors detected Maam is somewhere nearby. I told Pipa, in a somewhat raised voice, albeit subtlely. Clearly and slowly.


"Yelah,. Bila Abah miss and rindu kat Mama ajer, Abah boleh call Mama terus..Tekan 2 hijau. Kalau ada phone baru suara Mama lagi clear. Lagi jelas.."

"Abah niii..."


He he, rite-away, my sensors detected a huuuge amount of happy quark-ions being churned somewhere nearby. Continuosly.

I am Happy.

PtBK vs PBK

Hmm, lets give a bit of boost to my battered ego, facing coming weekdays.

***

I am a good dad.

I always feel bad whenever I spend too much time at the office. Thinking 'bout precious time not spending with family. So, on last Maulidur Rasul holiday, I bring the 4 smaller kids jenjalan without Bibik. With Dilla and amazingly, without Maam. She's having a continuation on her pendidikan jarak jauh. Apa-apalah,. asalkan Baha-giaa. Anak dara yang 2 orang tuu, Fiqa and Anne, biasala. Takmboh ikot.

We went to Giant @ Ou looking for Pipa's pant. Those el-cheapo sluar basahan. Tengah syioksyiok shopping, trying out the pants, Ajim anak jantan tu melompat-lompat. Sambil terkepit-kepit kaki. "Abah, Ajim nak kenching.." (Ni, for sure kes Punei tok Buleh Kontrol laa nii).

"Ajim boleh tahan tak ?"

"Boleh.."

Ajim kalau jawab soalan memang slow, cool and calculated. Aku pun cepat2 letakkan sluar pipa kat satu tempat. Takot terlupa pulak karang. Ambik Dilla yang berkeliaran dok balik semula kat stroller dia. Tarik semua anak-anak carik tandas..

Kalau Ajim kata tak boleh tadi, for sure aku suwoh Pipa jaga adik-adik jap, aku carik tandas dengan Ajim.

***

Apa yang aku nak cakap kat sini, bbudak jantan nii boleh dikategorikan kepada dua. PtBK and PBK. And Ajim is special. Dia, bila masa siang, PBK. Bila masa malam ajer,. PtBK.

And in my humble opinion, Orang Jantan pun sama.

***

Pulei Spring Resort.

Slow

Nowadays, it seems that I could only update because of 2 things

• Ceramic is outstation, OR
• I'm outstation.

***

I am slow. I'm a slow eater and I'm a slow driver. Slow Jogger, slow walker, slow rider and I am a slow swimmer.

All of these make me an even slow-er reader. I'd take months to finish off a normal half-inch thick book. And most of the well read blog-o-friends here, would take mere hours to the end.

Just like the book below. 3 pages per day (on the throne) and not everyday I could read it. I'm still slowly reading it. But nevertheless, I find it very Inspirational, Motivating, Touching, and Heart Rendering. Each time I stop at the 3 pages per day mark, I always remember my late Mom.

and Death.

If you've not seen or read it before, it's highly recomended that you rush to the nearest bookstore, or borrow from me.

































Heyy, BTW,. I think, I am a slow lover too. Gulp !.

Kari Kepala Ikan & GUiT.

Ceramics is in Beijing now. Or is it Peiking ? This is what I normally enjoy, when he's not around..

***

Bagaimanakah caranya untuk menikmati Kepala Ikan selazatnya. Sesedapnya ?

1. Ambillah masa untuk menjamu. Jangan sesekali makan secara terburu-buru. Segala tulang, isi ikan, telur ikan, sirip2, kepala, insang, bibir, pipi, otak, sum-sum hendaklah dikecapi perlahan-lahaan. Resip tulang secara sedar dan bersahaja.

2. Makanlah bersendirian tetapi tidak keseorangan. Jangan bawa 'client' atau anak-beranak juga saudara-mara, rakan taulan untuk menikmati kepala ikan..

3. Pesanlah Kepala Ikan sebagai hidangan utama. Nasi, secara sampingan adalah diharuskan. Jangan pesan segala sayuran, sup, dan segala hidangan lain. Manisan, juga buah-buahan adalah ditegah. Ini akan membuat kita hilang fokus kepada Kepala Ikan.


4. Makan Kepala Ikan di tempat yang selesa dan yang lebih afdal lagi,. senyap dan sunyi. Tiada kehingapan trafik. Tiada teriak anak-anak. Dan lebih penting lagi tiada hiruk pikuk lagu2 rock kapak serta hip-hop memeningkan. berkemungkinan tercekik pula tulang selangka.

5. Makan pada waktu yang sesuai. Iaitu pada keadaan lapar.


Anyway,


This is how I enjoy my GUiT right now.

Slowly,

All-by-myself,

Just me and the book,

Comfortably on top of King's Throne in the morning,

and when I'm hungry.

Dokter Cinta

Pernah dok dengor lagu ni ? Dokter Cinta by Dewi Dewi.

The Chorus goes something like this :




Mama, mama, mama
Tolonglah aku yang sedang bingung
Kurasakan virus-virus cinta
Ku ?*&^ *^% ???

Papa, papa, papa
Inikah yg dinamakan cinta
Mengapa sakit yg kurasakan
Ku ?*&^$%#*&^ ??




Whenever Ajim masuk dalam kereta, dia tekan-terus lagu nii. Sampai laa nii, aku still tak tau amender yang diaorang dok kata kat line # 4 tuu. Pipa pun siap tanya.


"Abaaah, apa dia cakap ku ku ku tuu ?"
"Entah.. Abah pun tak tauu.."


"Ku Dung ku terbuka.. kot" Anne dok mencelah.
"Ku bung ku bercerita ? kot, ntah"
"Ku buang mu ke kuta ? kot, ntah"


"Kukukukuku.... ta " kata Arip, dengan penoh semangat.


Pagi nii, setelah melayari sana sini, baru aku tau. Baru aku dapat jawabannya. Mebbe I'd explain to the kids later..

Ku butuh Dokter Cinta.


Hmmm.

Lets Go Tesco, Lets Go Tesco..

For the time being, you can call me Jo Sepuloh, instead on d' normal Jo Kontan. Just for the time being laa..


Knaperr ?


Anok kwan ada sepuloh sekarang nie.. Adik Maam gi buat haji, and on every wednesday, Maam'd pick them up and stay here until every Sunday evening. (Talking 'bout haji aside, semoga mereka semuanya mendapat Haji Mabrur.) Dok-ler macam Mokji nie.. (he he wooops..)


Kelmarin aku gi Tesco dengan diaorang semua. Almost all. Sans Dilla. Sans Hanis (5 tahun), anok sedara aku yang kecik sekali tuu. 8 ke-se-muanya. 6 pompuan, 2 jantan.


Orang jantan, including bbudak jantan laa,. nii kalau shopping, hmm, best !.

They see, they buy. They don't shop. Bawak anak dara ni shopping, adoiii. They shop and shop and shop. Belek sana. Tengok tuu. Bau ini. Hidu itu. Feel the texture. Try yang ituh. Try yang ini..In other words, they do shop. And they talked, and yakked, and giggled. Letih kwan..


And tell me, what a Great Daddy, ehem like yours truly, do ? Layan laa.. Bila lagi ?. Karang dah bila dah besar kang, (which is, pejam celik-pejam celik, sikkit ajer masa lagi) , diaorang buat tak tauu ajer dengan bapak diarang karang..


Anyway,


On every Wednesday onwards, after Maghrib, around the Curve and Ikano vicinity, if you see a Mid-Age man with luscious potbelly jelly-like abs , limping around (because of unreceding Gout), with 6 giggling daughters. That may be me, enjoying my time.


Tegor laa aku..

from left - ajim, fathini, hanis, fiqa, dilla, anne, pipa, aliya, giant (?), arip.

Lite and Easy

Semalam, aku main badminton balik.


Tu puun selepas beberapa bulan those buggers @ the office have been pestering me to turun court. Diaorang main tiap2 Senin dan Khamis, and in between pergi jogging. Stamina diaorang sure 90%. Nak-di-kata-kan 100 persen, dok juger. Orang-orang berumor nii manader 100 persen ?. Anyway, diaorang've been pestering aku nii pun with a clear intention. Nak bedok aku 15-2, 15-3 nii. Hmmm tunggu laa..


Bila Shan Gemok ajak aku dah nak masuk4 kali dah, aku ikot-kan ajer. Did I tell you that Shan G udah naik pangkat ?. Jumped a couple of ranks, from normal Auditor to Deputy CFO. Most importantly, he's partially responsible for my account expense. Boleh lee tutop mata sebelah kalau ada grey claims tuu. Tuu yang kena pegi tuu.. Ha ha.


Dan Tadi, lepas mandi, masa tengah prepare nak balik Kontan, aku nap jap. Letih dan lengoh badan ser-malaman tak hilang lagi. Sebabkan bilik tidor aku tuu agak panas, aku tidor berlenging aje. Lie on my back, both hands pointing to the sky.
Macam orang surrender. Macam Spreading Eagles Position.


2-3 saat aku terus terlelap.Letih Benor kawan.


Tiba-tiba, aku bermimpi. Aku dengar suara haluus, sayup-sayuup, perlahan-lahan. Rasanya aku kenal suara tuu, tapi aku tak pasti sapa laa.


" Weii, tebainyer semok nii, naik geli kawan tengok." Lepas tuu aku rasa, ada bunyi kerok-kerok keroooook. Bunyi tuu pun sama. Sayupp-sayuupp. Perlahan-lahan.


And The rest of the dreams, I simply could not remember.


Lebih kurang sejam, Pipa gerakkan aku "Abah bangun Bah, semua orang dah ready dah nak balik Kontan, tunggu abah ajer.." Aku dengan malasnya pun banguun. Rasa macam malas. Tapi ada sikit segar. Udah dapat nap sejam nii, kira dunia kembali teranglaa. Kembali segar.


Basuh muka. Berus gigi sikit. Boh Brylcream kat rambut. Boh bedak kat ketiak.


Then I felt something funny, somewhat lite (and easy) underneath the armpit. Laaa habis ditebasnya semak tuu. All that left are some stubby hairs..



Ni sure kerja Maam nii..

One of Us * - 25 Years Ago

Aku dengar lagu ni ntah suku abad dulu. Masa tuu Form Two ker Form Three. Ntah Paklang ker, ntah Maklong beli kaset masa tuu. I think that time, it was way before video. Bawak kaset kat skoloh, aku dengar sengsorang..


Nasib baik skolah aku skolah campor. Kalau all boys school, sohih aku kena chop jambu.. he he. Several things come to my mind watching at this video for the first time

• The furnitures, steel cans, plants, drawings ; we can only find that now in Ikea.
• This Bjorn (haperkenama) Ulvaeus, looks like our former CEO, minus the hair.
• The other male, Benny (haperkenama) is sharing the same last name as our Territorry Manager. (There is such post tau..)
• I don't remember Agnetha (haperkenama) Flatskog have that kinda hair. Hmmm,.sama dengan one DraftAmoi here ajerr.

Better stop now.




Abba - One Of Us
Uploaded by ABBA

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow One of us had to go
Now it's different, I want you to know

One of us is crying, One of us is lying In her lonely bed,
Staring at the ceiling Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely, One of us is only Waiting for a call,
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid, feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all

I saw myself as a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
That's how I started the show One of us had to go
Now I've changed and I want you to know

One of us is crying , One of us is lying In her lonely bed,
Staring at the ceiling Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely, One of us is only Waiting for a call,
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all

Never left at all

Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely One of us is only Waiting for a call

* I saw this first at Sir Bergeng and kopipes it 'ere. Thank you very much for bringing back some fond memories.

Event, Pattern and Structure.

Just got back from refresher talks.

Talks/seminar/training nii buatkan aku tambah gendot jer ader. 1000 hrs tea & coffee break with some nice pastries. Alamaak, sekarang punya pastries, (apa diorang cakap tuu or-derv ?) diaorang taruk dalam sudu comel and cute saucers, rasa geramm ajer aku. 1230 hrs buffet lunch pulak. Pbbbbbrt...

Anyway, these are some of the topics covered. The reason I'm pasting it up, hopefully it will stick in my head. And in the future I could mengayat Liichet Zer. Tuu pun kalau Zer's Acting position become a permanent one. And Boy, Liichet pun trying soo bloody damn hard to materialise it. We can see one. Agaknya mamat tuu rasa syiook amat naik chauffered 7 series kalau nak compare dengan leased 5 series kot. Boleh buat satu N3 tuu..

***

Event : Apa2 la keadaan yang berlaku setiap hari. I'm driving to the office is an Event. So is Jo's bringing back some sizable order back to the office. And one more, Lichet approves my travelling plan is also an Event. Got it ?

Hmmm, not to forget, Ajim kencing tak pakai pampers pun, is an Event.

**

Pattern : When the events repeat. Yet again,. I'm driving to office, everyday is a Pattern. Jo's bringing back some sizable order back to the office 6 straight Quarters is a Pattern.

But Ajim kencing tak pakai pampers still is an Event. Semalam dia pakai balik pampers. (Heeii budak nii..). Wait a minute. Satu lagi. Arip wet our bed everyweek is a Pattern. I hope this will stick in my head ?

Haaaa, satu lagi. Pipa dok mengadap TV every weekday sharp on 1830 hrs nengokkan "Manjalara" is also a Pattern. Syukor aku semalam was the Last Episode. Hopefully takdork lepas niii..

**

Structure : Is sets of fixed formations catering the Patterns. Generally it is not visible.

Buying a 15 kilo capacity Washing machine in order to clean the duvet Arip repeated wetted, is a Structure. Every Sunday, Bibik and Maam take the King Size bed from our room for drying is another Structure. Boh diaorang tengok ajer, because, for him this is a wrong structure

Anyway, what I would like to ngomel is this. Our department bring back good sizable orders for the last 14 Quarters or so. The Management sees that this is a Good Pattern. But, at the same time, some other divisions were doing badly. For that, Management did all it could, get rid of some the bosses with any reason that it could come up with. Aku tak kena, tak menda laa..

Uncle Gumork is a wise old man, and having seen these patterns and structures over the 30 odd-years he's here, he decided not to continue with his Contract. The management, with their structure in place, installed Ah Yee and Ah Fook, both Czech nationals and one with Russian experience, thinking that they can do better. Better than Uncle Gumork. Cit !! Poooodah..

All I can do is tunggu dan lihat laa.

Nanti,.If all of the keys indices pointing down-south for this division, in the near future, Malauns nii balik kampong ajerlaa. It'll be the locals, yang terpalit, yang masih di sini, yang bermati-matian nanti.

Over the some odd years pun I've seen this pattern. I think I am prepared.

***

Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al Mubarak. I hope this time I could glide down to Fartherly BMI of 24.

Accidental Leave

Pbbbrt...

The company leased notebook died on me on Thursday. The day I came back from outstation. Streamyx services @ home, is simply lousy. Thinking of disconnecting it, I didn't pay for the last 3 months. 3G Chokia punya cable connectors pun bengkok.

Bila tanya Fiqa,. dia kata Anne buat. Heii,, bbudok nii.

The notebook fan was out. Nasib kompeni punya. All parts and services are free. Luckily the MIS dudes are just 3 cubicles away, and they got it running again in a jiffy.

Sempat hari nii.., ader ler ser dua keping gambor kwan nak muat-naik.

Elmu Brani

Always, I do enjoy meeting new people, learning new words, and experience new things. It's even better over breakfast or TT.

Last Friday, I just did that, and boy !, I am estatic.

New word I learn is Gedebe. (Phonetically Ger-dae-bae)

" Audacious, Ballsy, Venturesome, Foolhardy. A must have Male hok yang gatei* tuu trait in order to be sucessful. Antonyms : Tikus, Quiet, Ehem, Yours Truly. "

*****

* In order to fully appreciate this livid g word, it must be followed with 2 clear body-actions :

1. Put your right hand out, with the palm facing the sky. Curl the fingers as if your're holding the scrotum hok orang yang gatei punya tuu. Curl in and out the finger, twice per second, as if meng-ga-nyang.

2. Put up the most Garang Singa-face you could muster. The more Garang, the better it is.

Have a Productive week ahead.

Hok nii Gedebe dok ?

Tse-tse - Part Jeloh

"While waiting for the Bird to bring me back home.., Sempat juga satu N3"

***

Aku nak ngaku ser-mender ni.

Aku memang judge people the way she or he talks and/or the way she/he dresses. Camaner nak buatkan. Aku udah memang macam tuu.

Ok,..



Katakan laa satu curvaceous amoi lalu depan kita. Dressed skimpily pulak tuu. Corsett-ty tight, sampai betik masak ranum tuu udah nak terkeluar dari sangkarnya. Muntah terbonjol. Pulak tuu, dengan Rok Sepan * slitted all the way to the thigh. Amoi nii pulak tegor aku. "Hii,.. mau jalan sama saya kaar ?" with semi- bassy deep voice..


Hah ? Macamana ? Takmboh judge ? Takmboh kata apa2 ?

Tetapi, perbedaannya, segala apa yang aku judge tuu, aku simpan ajer dalam benak aku. Takderler aku nak jadi celupar. Beritau kat sapa2 ker. (but mebbe, blog sikit sikit, boleh la kot..)



Anyway. Back to 3 months ago. Adalah aku ternampak seorang Apek dok park 5 series baru dia betul2 belakang what used to be Uncle Gumork's parking spot. Aku nii, kalau tengok kereta, memang jadi selaok kera. Maka aku tegorla Apek tuu.


"What a nice motorr you got there.." sambil senyum meleret..

"Aaa, dis wan, yuuu laik iit. Yuu ken tes dlaiv it dis ifning, if yuuu wan tuu".


From the accent itself, aku tak tau dari mana Apek ni mali. Nak kata Singapore for sure bukan. Indonesian Chinese pun tak cakap macamnii. Mebbe Chinese fromChina kot...


" Hi, I'm Jo. Please to meet you. I'll be here by 6." aku joke2 sikit laa

" Ai em Liiichet. Liiichet Zer. Tis wik is mai ferst wik hiiyer".


Hati aku macam biasa laa berbisik.. (Tu la dia kompeni nii. Asyik2 outsource ppl from outside. Bayor lebih2. Orang2 yang loyal macam aku nii jugak yang asyik macam nii. Masih lagi KGJ. Biler ler nak merasa 5 siries nii.)





To Be continued...
