Seriously he needs to be less flippant and put in more effort to go for his physios and stuff
Basically the doctor said one part of the spine gave way then the rest took over and it was a domino effect ><
HIs back is really screwed up and they did an MRI to see if he needs to go under the knife or not >< -

Good timing on your trip since summer merchandise are heavily reduced. I love Dockers too. Especially when they go on sale. Lately though, I've been eyeing the Lee brand. Their prices are low even before going on sale and they now have 3 different kinds of cuts. I'm pear shaped so it's difficult to find a pair that will fit right. I also favour Old Navy pants. The cut just fits so nicely on me. -
That's the sucky thing. I didn't have time to go to Old Navy coz it was kinda out of the wayOriginally posted by jetta:

Yeah I love Dockers too and I tend to see the ones for men here in SG only
Too bad the sizes left were kinda big so I could only buy 1 dockers pants -
Aiyoh! Poor poor poor Ah Bear. I was cringing in fear and pain, reading the doctor's description. OMG. If he has to go under the knife, how are they going to fix it?Originally posted by elindra:He is ok but in pain and stoned from the pain killers

No ideaOriginally posted by jetta:Aiyoh! Poor poor poor Ah Bear. I was cringing in fear and pain at the doctor's description. OMG. If he has to go under the knife, how are they going to fix it?
According to Bear this would be his 2nd surgery if he has to go under the knife >< -
How about ordering a pair and having it sent via V-Post? Would the shipping costs kill? It's tough being a pear shaped woman in Sg. I'm a 14 and it's super difficult buying clothes that I like, that fit. The last two times I was back, I only shopped at Tangs. I didn't know they offered clothes there in my size.Originally posted by elindra:That's the sucky thing. I didn't have time to go to Old Navy coz it was kinda out of the way

What kind of Coach print did you buy? If and when you ever come my way, I'll take you to the base exchange. Our Coach products there are wayyy cheaper than mall prices. We may not carry the latest styles but you'll find something you like.
Did you get any make-up/skin care? -
Goodness! Please give him my best? Tell him I have a cyber bouquet being delivered.Originally posted by elindra:No idea

You're a 14? Same as me!! But for dockers they had sizes like 4? At least that is the size for my pants.
Nay I like to try on the pants for the cut too so I dun buy pants thru the internet -
I love the Old Navy shirts though and they are all on discount
No I did not get make up and skin care coz I hardly use make up at all
And I'm happy with my current skin care so I didn't buy any too -
That's a cute style! Sua-ku for me to say I haven't seen it here. Maybe because I only shop Sears for my employee discount, Target 'cause it's 5 mins away from the house and Costco for food?Originally posted by elindra:I got this. The black one.

RE: your Dockers pants. You could order the same style via online?
Anyway. It's 10am now and I have to get ready for work.
I really don't want to go in today. She's got me working 8 hours today. When she hired me I told her I only want to work 4 hours a day. You see lah! Give an ince and she takes yards and yards. Grrr. That's why I've put in online applications elsewhere.
Bye Pinkie. Hope you feel sleepy soon.

evening to all....

Bo lang again?

It was file closing day, and they tried to make it staff cooking day too.
Most of us liti gals was very sucky at it cos a lot of files that was closed or shouldnt be closed wasnt ours, and there was lots of mixed up on its closing.
So frankly, we are all kinda disappointed with how things was happening at the office today.
The cooks did up a great job on the food. But I was frankly beyond caring too much. Bozz gave the go ahead for the alcohol to be served. I serve it and some of us was happier working with alcohol instead of food in our system.
Anyway, I swear I wont let this happen again. Am going to talk to bozz to reshuffle me around instead and take on a more relax role.
Let the 'office manger' be the 'PA' she wanted so much. She was even hinting to be quitting to go off somewhere to work as a PA. Subconsiously, we all knew that its my job she wanted. I have all the heart to let her have it.
I am going to request to take over a junior lady's position instead and be spared all that headache or showing off of 'capabilities'.
I intend to learn from the best, even if its a junior position. I never fancied myself someone that fights over soemthings as simple as 'power' in the office.
Heck. If I can let my ex hub go. Whats the big deal about a job's 'power'?
I now officially have a glass of white wine, 1/2 bottle of red wine and 2 cups of VSOP in me right now and surprisingly sober.
The pupil did made a comment that I must be drunk and I questioned him further. He just said I sounded funny.
as it turns out, i was not slurring. Its just that I was relaxed and speaking with a accent, the kind I do when I gone off deep or just woke up. Its not technically British or even american....but there is always that stupid twang there which comes on like an Irish Brogue....and I was seriously not trying to sound like a SPG! -
Anyway, the file closing was a mess.
There isnt a real decent centralised filing system, and its made worse by the fact that the bozzes does not try to practise handing over one file and let one secretary follow it thru.
We move the file around so much, its hard to track its progresses and what is necessary to be done so most of them has been sitting there until a client got fed up and called and chased us new secretaries which have totally no idea what the heck it was!
I love this new workplace to bits, and I foresee it growing into one heck of a major corporation, even involving in politics and so on, since my bozzes are fairly charismatic fellas.
But please.......we need to really get staffs that isnt so civil service types! They will be perfect to run the office, but heck...they arent the materials to convince the members of public that our bozzes are great political leaders! -
yawn....just got back from "work"...

Evening
