first day at work

impressive! learnt al ot of those did you know facts!!

  • the panamax is called panamax coz its the largest ship that could pass through the Panama Canal.
  • it costs US$ 160,000 to pass thru the Suez Canal. and 85% of the Egyptian GDP comes from the duties from the Suez Canal.

haha. on top of these some cool gadgets! i've got a tabel that could elevate so that i could stand up after lunch for better digestion. it also helps you relax your back as according to some of my colleagues. theres a table with 2 LCD screens but that guy could control it with a single mouse. so his mouse moves from 1 screen to the other! i want one of that at home.

office is made up of half caucasians half singaporeans. most of the Cs are from Denmark. ironically i speak to both grps with pretty much ease. haha. except the boss whom i havent really met yet since he's not ard. ironically he is the one i am supposed to travel with for 5 days. i wonder if he would give up trying to repeat to me what he said, ahahah. oh yah, theres also this Jap Lady in a room of her own. she looks like the young sugar mummy sort. hahahah. speaks louder than most jap girls. looks like some big @#$% in the company coz shes alone on her own though the whole office is like open concept one. so only she and the boss has a rooom to their own. i hear her voice from outside her rm the whole day. the culture here is pretty flat. imagine me typing this right in front of my colleagues.

just a thought:

i could do without my phone for so many days in Vietnam, shows that i could let go of work easily right? i only checked my phone every like 5 days. i seldom reply in Viet. i like the feeling of being away. doing what i have to do. doing what others are not doing. the min i touched down singapore, i felt that my lifestyle was coming back alreadi. just task after task. meeting people after meeting people. i havent seem to accustom back to the Singapore life yet. not many noe tt i am back. but i think its getting more n more by the day. ahha.
