Club 30's "Kill the Boredom Demon" Jive Pad, 21st Edition
-
hell my dear, we're all singaporeans after all ... we all have this asian disdain beneath all of us neh ? ...Originally posted by viciouskitty74:You have no idea how bored I am.
Tried applying for a few secretarial job and a employment agency gal calls me.
I generally qualifies in most roles then any typical asian admin asst.
But the way that gal was telling me. I am like dirt under her feet. Just because I refuse to make demands on her on what sort of job I must insist on.
Whats wrong with folks about distance from home? When I ride & drive and holds multiple licence and can get a vehicle at a moments notice????
Whats wrong with me being able to take on any role, and she has to lecture me about looking down on receptionist jobs? And to mention experiences as a receptionist to command $2k pay?
You kidding me? I worked in Exxon MObil President's office. You want to tell me you really have a receptionist job that pays $2k? And you think secretarial training never teaches about recept work????????
Dammit! I wrote the policies & directions for receptionists to follow!
And she dares to try to sound a bit uppity! In my mind, the phrase that pops up was: Dont tell me you have jobs, dont tell me you will consider me for whatever post you deem me suitable for, I DONT NEED YOU. I dont even want YOU TO EARN THAT EASY COMMISSION YOU WILL GET WHENEVER I WOW A EMPLOYER.
perhaps you'd like to sign up with some of those jobs websites ... I recommend jobstreet and monster.sg ... I had employers calling my house and bombarding my email ... until i took up this job that is ... -
Ahh now I remember
Expo there used to be called Somapah -

I know that, I just am tired of dealing with such folks. I have low expectation for others, but tries to be a perfectionist myself.Originally posted by Fatum:hell my dear, we're all singaporeans after all ... we all have this asian disdain beneath all of us neh ? ...

And most times, it amazes me at how far lower people are trying to pull those expectations lower.
And to think it was me having menstrual cramps......she sounds like having PMS! -
And I was recently told that Changkat Changi Primary School or Changkat Changi Primary produces most of our TCS actresses.Originally posted by sbst275:Ahh now I remember

Not too sureOriginally posted by viciouskitty74:And I was recently told that Changkat Changi Primary School or Changkat Changi Primary produces most of our TCS actresses.
I did remember that place, cos in the early days if you were to take a bus to Changi Airport, you must either transfer to the Airport Shuttles from Bedok or Somapah... Not like today the Airport is quite accessible by bus or train to the entire island -
we asians have this natural disdain for everyone else ... that is why issues like class and elitism get out knickers in a twist, cos deep down, we're all guilty of this ..... neh ? ...Originally posted by viciouskitty74:I know that, I just am tired of dealing with such folks.

think about it ... -
I really dont like dealing with local recruit agencies. They really dont have the people that can deal with me.
I guess I am quite a problem child.
Jack of all trades, master of none. And has a pessimistic, bored cum explosive attitude.
At a age where people are suspicious when I ask for low pay, since I dont want to be hard up on money issues.....and underqualifed to ask for more pay.
Okay okay! I pegged myself at $2k worth can or not????!!!! Why must make noise if I ask for too little and then dont want me because I ask for too much?????
I prefer to ask for small. I prefer to be conservative and not ask sooo much!!!! Is that too much to ask for?????? -
Ok.. going out...
-
trust me ... check out the local jobsites ... some of them are pretty good ... and you can post your resume and expectations up and just fish for employers that way ... no "match-making" from some snotty little biatch in between ...Originally posted by viciouskitty74:I really dont like dealing with local recruit agencies.

Done so. Folks nowadays dont call you unless its the headhunters/recruitment agency.Originally posted by Fatum:trust me ... check out the local jobsites ... some of them are pretty good ... and you can post your resume and expectations up and just fish for employers that way ... no "match-making" from some snotty little biatch in between ...
Cos most times, by the time they called, the person is already in a job. I know. I get calls from them only when I am happily in a job. Whenever I am not, its just silent treatments all the way. -

but the heineken here tastes different leh ... more bitter than the ones brewed by APB ...
I like coors light cos it's only 4% ... I can drink lots without getting wobbly ...
-
4%
hmmm.. normal beer is 5%
not much difference
not so bitter? maybe a stella artois?
but i figure, coors is considered "local" and the others imported? -

Boo hoo I have a really bad cough
fell sick after my friend's wedding. Haha
Problem is I'm tired and want to sleep by my cough keeps waking up my SO coz I sleep for 15 mins or less and then wake up from my hacking cough and he wakes up too coz he is a light sleeper
He has been working 2 nights and tired so I decided to come online instead
-
uhh.. see a doc about that?
if it doesn't work try going to the chinese doctors.. they have weird concoctions which are as disgusting as they are effective -
This is why I say attending weddings is bad for health.
