Cuepacs, buck up!!!

My mornings have always started with a routine -- on the laptop, air my office room, get a nice, hot cup of Milo and start reading the online news. The favs would be The Star and Berita Harian. Occasionally I would glance at Malaysiakini, or Borneo Post, just to have some news at home... But today's headlines totally caught my attention and I cannot help but wonder if people are getting more selfish nowadays???

1st headline was the comment made by our PM on Cuepacs demand for a 2-month bonus in this very critical economic crisis. I quote "...it is morally wrong for Cuepacs to make such a request when the Government is making efforts to ride out of the global economic crisis..."

Being a govt servant myself, I am so glad that my allowance have not being cut. Instead the govt decided to extend the RM500 to grade 41-54, which I dare say is a very brave move. Although the govt has been known to allocate a large sum for its operating expenditure (which of course comes from the rakyat) maybe the rakyat has to realise, that's where the free services comes from. Even banks and telcos charge us to print our statements! Govt have been so frugal in it's spending, that even some have to work weekends without OT. Because the rakyat wants them to. Because the rakyat wants us govt servants to work our a** off like we are no humans but robots.

I have work in both private and govt, and it is obvious that govt nowadays are so much different from the 90s and before. Work piles up on your table, meetings have to be done in such a hurried way (we had to do it like Google.com).. Although there are certain level of govt servants that are not so busy, or have some attitude problems, the rest are simply overwhelmed with work.

Which is why I have to cut short my yakkings this morning.

To My Dear Friends, You Know Who You Are...

I was compelled to write today, to commemorate a friend's brave action. Being the rebel with a cause, she had the nerve to go against the SOP, and yet her actions, to me, were justified. I couldn't detail out what she did, else I would be breaching against the code of conduct as a government servant. But I fully supported her in whatever she's doing, because I believe what she did was right.


Maybe somebody up there shouldn't be so emotional and quit thinking about oneself. Instead think of the service as a whole and be responsible for every decision you make. Fear the God instead of the HUMAN acting like God. We humans are disposable anyway, and we will be remembered for what we did and said.


I could only pray that my dear friend will survive this cruel service with the guidance of a good boss and in the company of good friends. I hope now she knows that no matter much we want to trust people, it is best to trust the Creator...


I also pray for my dear friends who has been with me all the way, regardless of our posts or pay or background... For you gave me the strength to be what I am today...

Lunch With Mr Banjo!

Curiosity kills a cat. Not in my case today. My curiosity of the new cafetaria operator in B1 sure managed to drag my lazy bum out of the office. Went to have lunch there with my colleague, Derm, and both of us had Burger Banjo, or Banjo Burger, whatever you may want to call it. Since I already took down a heavy breakfast this morning, I agreed to have an egg burger instead.



Basically it's an egg burger, with mayo and slices of cucumber, cabbage and blackpepper sauce.

Quite nice, since I'm gulping it down with a tall glass of Milo Peng.

Oh, the cafe actually serves mixed rice, kuihs and soupy meal.... But again, I am full.. Maybe tomorrow. Rain check with Derm again...

And once we finished our meal, we stopped by the entrance to find an optical promotion. Wanting to try, but too lazy to wait for our turn...

A new day with a new start!!

Comel kan layout yang baru ni?? Got it from blogger templates site.. Alaa.. yang free itu.. Cuma sekarang kena reset balik all my links sebab ia akan automatik delete all the previous links.. I experimented with a few templates (as there are hundreds of them!!) And this one fits my title the best.. Actually it's not just the layout I'm revamping, I am actually thinking of a subject matter to fill up my future posts.. So that takdelah pembaca-pembaca, walaupun yang setakat singgah, boring mendengar yadayadayada ku ini.. Mana tau, boleh challenge blog redmummy ke, Kenny sia ke.. hahaha! Btw, while I am mentioning Kenny Sia, I guess there's nothing wrong in helping him to promote his new gym, Level Up Fitness... Nak gambar lebih lagi, pegi la blog dia, k!

Ni bangunannya...

Letaknya di sini...

Selamat bersenam Kuchingites!!!
