Weird Day

Today was a weird day at work and I was not even supposed to be working in the first place. Today is supposed to be my off day but had to cover my part timer at the last minute who has a paper. I was so pissed off when he told me that. Not so much of me having to work. More of me possibly missing the Man U-Arsenal Semi in the morning. Lucky for me I didn't, and Man U won.

So went to work, with a black cloud over me. Sleepiness didn't help. Then I got a message from the csa saying my IC won't be coming in because he's sick, and he asked me to find a part timer to cover him. Fuck...

So the whole morning I was frantically finding people to cover him. I sure as hell am not going to do full shift on my freaking off day. Lots of asking(begging) later, finally got one to cover him but can only come in at 6. Shoot, have to stay on a bit longer. Better than nothing I guess.

Problem settled.

Then at 1, my IC came strolling in looking as if he never even had a sniffle all year. What the...

Apparently he was joking with the csa saying that he was sick when he wasn't. The hell...

Don't really blame the csa. Who would be lying about getting sick these days? HELLO! Heard of swine flu??

There I was, dumbfounded (saw my reflection in the mirror, found out that I looked really dumb), and now having to tell the part timer that she don't have to come since there is already a coverage.

Haiz..

Things are starting to get better. Had a fairly good-looking haircut at Westmall, watching X-men Origins later at Tiong Bahru, and I get to enjoy the public holiday tomorrow. Had asked the part timer I covered today to do my duty tomorrow. Really need to rest.

X-men better be good.

Sleepy

I am so sleepy. Must be the effects from lunch.

What a welcome the rain is. It has been super hot lately. Woke up sweating a number of times already. Wish it would rain more. Anytime other than when I'm going to work or home of course.

Going to train later before I go down to Queensway to meet Mimi. Not much time to do alot, maybe concentrate on my chest. Or maybe do superset with my biceps. Need to start working out to vent out my frustration. Not really sure why I'm feeling this way. Abit moody lately.

Getting bonus soon. Not expecting alot. Keeping most of it anyway for the wedding. I think I need to get some retail therapy. Alot of things that are on my to-get list. Well, it's more like my "to-get-but-it's-ok-if-I-don't-have-them" list.

A bean bag would be a nice addition to my room. So would a speaker system for my iPhone.

Work hard for the money

Work is going to be much busier these days. The gym is implementing the PEP in our gym, meaning the trainers will actually have something to do around the gym. In a way, I am looking forward to it. I have the feeling the days I spend working in the gym is just wasting my brain cells away. I miss working in FHI. Missed the days I was working my ass off during the triathlon. I definitely won't be staying for very long. Ideally I will stay until the end of this financial year, after the wedding. Need all the money I can get for before and after the wedding.

We are already in the lookout for our house. Quite a few available, maybe just 2 that really caught my eyes. Really hope we can get it. Nothing I can do about that for now. Just hoping we can get an appointment from HDB.

Fingers crossed.

Me? Lazy?

Partly. heh.

One part is working shifts which doesnt allow me to do much in watever remaining time i have.

2nd, Saiful is much better writer then me. *I can see u nodding ur heads. See?*

3rd, I dun ave an interested audience in my writings AND a decent topic to write abt.

Excuse me if im wrong though...

Speaking of self indulgent pricks that we can find on this small little island called Singapore...

Being in the service industry for more than 4 years now, those kind of idiots my "better half" talked abt are only, pardon me, a "small fry"...

ive seen and heard..racism remarks..nasty screaming customers whose vocab only consists of swear words..ppl w total disrespect for customer service ppl whom they call "operators"..

i just wish..that more focus wld be done for our dear countrymen to respect ppl in d service line...a smile. a Thank you. a "Have good day!"

would that be hard to ask?

oh wait. that's wat the Kindness Campaign is for.

Right.


Last but not least, wats that part abt me not being ur better half. yet?

You better explain yourself, Mister.

Stupid Prick

Some people are bloody ridiculous. They are bound to be everywhere you go. What is so freaking hard about picking up your used towels and returning them to the counter?

Him - "You expect me to return the towels after I used them?"

Wish I could say - "Yeah duh. That is why we put up all that signages in the gym reminding people to"

Him - "I already wiped my feet with them, and you expect me to carry them to the counter?"

Wish I could say - "Yeah duh. I said towels that you used, not the ones others used. No other members have any problem picking up after themselves"

Him - "My hand is now clean, maybe next time I will kick it out to the counter."

Wish I could say - "Fuck off you faggot"

Haiz.. The price of being in the service line. No point going on about these pests. Not worthy to be spoken off.

Sleepy now. Didn't have much sleep last night. Was supposed to wake up early for the match, but ended up watching snippets of the match
while I go in and out of sleep. Good thing that they won though. Just a few more games to win it guys.

Tomorrow's the annual D&D here at my clubhouse. About 90% sure I'm not going. Not a big fan such things. Went to last year's, didn't really think it was worth the time. Also with the fact that it was my off day plus my father's birthday, the D&D doesn't really sound attractive. Just hate the part where people ask me the next day why I didn't go. I won't say it to them, obviously, but honestly I don't give a damn.

For Guang

Another uneventful day in the life of Saiful. This blog is dying a slow death. A result of having two extremely lazy blogger running the show. Well I wouldn't say two actually, since Mimi is lazier than me when it comes to updating this blog. I'm here really because Guang asked me to update. Didn't know there was a living soul reading this other than me and my better half (soon to be at least). I told Guang that if I update, he must get a yellow card the next time he plays. This Friday's live game just got alot more interesting. Wonder if it was alright for me to say that here..

Got to admit that the Sleague has gotten alot more interesting. I wouldn't say it's as good as when I was watching it years ago, but better than the recent seasons. Was a big Tanjong Pagar fan back then. Too bad they are no longer around. Just hope some other team wins the title this time.

Working full shift today. Another reason why I'm updating. It gets boring here, more often than not. Wouldn't do it if not for the money. Earning extra here and there where possible.

Oo yeah, my cat just gave birth last week, a day before my birthday. I am the proud owner of 5 kittens. They are so cute. Will put up their photos up as soon as I can. Which would probably be next month, or longer.
