i am finally employed

after countless weeks of standby mode, i am finally employed as a temp staff. LOL.

now i know i talk in a schizophrenic mode, so just let me be. last night i dreamt of sailor moon. in the dream, usagi, amy (? sailor mercury) and the masked man were all classmates. then usagi was very sad that she didn't manage to tell the masked man to "take care". after class, usagi and i (amy) happened to pass by the masked man's shop and he appeared. i told him, "usagi wants to say take care and she wants to go on a date with you!" the masked man actually say, "sure. when?" usagi was damn happy and i left. then i dunno why i walk halfway i fainted, and usagi rushed over to help me up and drag me to my house. i think i fainted because in real life, i physically felt tired LOL. i woke up at 12+ btw.

in the midst of my sleep, Liz called me to say that today i must go to the company to fill in the application form. ok. so i went. kanin... she told me to prepare $0.50 for the woodlands transport. but when i paid $0.50, the guy stared at me and said, "it's $0.70." ok, so i got change from a stranger and paid the right amount. when i reached the company, first thing i told her was she gave me wrong info. and what did she tell me? "too long never take, i forgot. hahaha!" second thing i told her was i needed her toilet for big business. LOL.

when i went in to fill in the application, Liz told me, "there'll be an interview." i stared at her, "you said nothing about an interview." she can as-a-matter-factly tell me, "i also didn't know until just now!" erhh. so, the manager appeared and said, "i will get straight to the point. we have a lot of backlog stuff so we will hire you as a temp staff. of course if your performance is good you will get to be a permanent staff." i was debating with myself whether i should tell the truth, "i came here because of shortage manpower, so actually i also dun wanna be permanent staff LOL."

either way, he asked me to wait a moment and finally when he came back, he said, "weh. can you write neater, i give you some more paper just in case you write wrongly." what sia.

i started drawing at Liz' desk because i was too damn bored. her colleagues were saying something like, "wah lao also the same, also draw!" then another colleague said, "wah the sister come in, next time also hire the mother lah." i dunno why Liz' first reaction was to say, "wah cannot! she will start singing to herself!!" <-- it's quite freaky... i think my mom thinks she sings damn well, though her stamina is so good she's constantly changing key -.-

then finally i was brought to the HR. kns. i filled in the application form again. LOL. man. what dishonesty inside the application! hahahaha. then this was our conversation.

HR: your handwriting very small leh, like ant writing.
Me: izzit?
HR: you should write bigger.
Me: erh... i used to write quite big letters, but they were very ugly.
HR: izzit? but your words are so small! very difficult to read.
Me: hahaha...

HR: you look quite sweet.
Me: erh...? ok lah.
HR: why ah? you look quite pretty wat, why you wear until so boyish?
Me: (...pretty and me have never been paired together) i like mah.
HR: you always wear like this is it?
Me: yah.
HR: were you trained to dress like this?
Me: erh... my mom said i was born like this.
HR: oh really? do you ever wear skirts?
Me: don't like to wear.
HR: why not?
Me: i find it impractical.
HR: hmm... at office ok lah, but when go out for shopping, you should wear something nicer yeah?
Me: hahaha...

i'm not lying when i say i was born like this. i used to wear cerisi clothes. mom tried to get me to tuck in the clothes because my clothes were half tucked in and half spilling everywhere. i had the audacity to say,"MAMMY! it's OK! never mind one! nobody will see anyway!" ...right. have i also mentioned that i screamed at kopitiam uncles to hurry up with the kopi-o and i tended NOT to change clothes before going out? hahhh. (i was pretty disgusting. still am. LOL.)

then ok, my application was complete and i could leave. so i left.

i got up the woodlands transport and this time, i dropped $0.70 instead. what an achievement! but the bus driver still stared at me.

Driver: it's $0.90.
Me: ??? isn't it $0.70...
Driver: this bus goes to Tanah Merah, miss.
Me: *stare blank* i have no money left...
Driver: ahhh never mind never mind.
Me: orh... thanks...
*stare blank* *calls Liz*
Me: WEH! you never say got two transport??
Liz: oops! i forgot to tell you again. too long never take. hahaha!

idiot. to think i was basking happily in the idea that i finally paid the right fee. now my crime worsens as i shortchange the driver by $0.20. kanin...

i must say this. do not be cheated by what the HR person said. i am NOT pretty. for evidence, refer to the flute blog. i'm just a weird bugger.

i am finally employed leh. i accidentally said too loud in the office, "woohoo!! i can finally save up enough to buy a psp for you, HUISANN!" i dunno whether the colleague beside us was laughing about what i said, or about someone else saying they should hire our mom too.

btw, i have never and never will spell or even pronounce Liz' name correctly. i am too used to mixing her chinese and cantonese name together. hahhh. wah lao she labelled her correction tape as "bird lizard". punning her own name, wah liao. i think my parents have no talent in naming their children.

so guys??? rejoice. i am finally not a slacker, for at least until end of next feb. hahhhh!
