Last Wed: 2nd day @ work. Manager was on leave. AM (Lynnette) was very nice. So sad tat she is gOing on maternity leave soon (next mth). The ger who is leaving (Cory)oso quite nice ba.. Quite frenly.. Somehow, the people here seems to be so much better than the bitches of my ex company, more frenly, more open & not as cunning! So definitely feel much better here.. Too bad this is juz a 5 months contract eh~ On Mon, Lynn brought me out for lunch. Wed I went to dabao from carrefour cos wanted to lunch in, so as to study for my inventory mgmt quiz later in the evening.. But end up study oso = no study.. Quiz damn hard.

After tat went NTUC "shop" den went back.

Sun: Woke up in de noon. I prepared breakfast-cum-lunch for beibei: Egg bread toast, sausages & beef burger~~ After tat at nite went to Upper Serangoon for dinner, den took Circle Line to go home. Went home to pack some clothes, then after tat took cab back to his place. Ehh... Something weird. The new "member" of my family is missing when I went back. Onli left his leash. His "house" oso missing.. Hmm... Anyway, slept quite late.. Insomnia again..

Left office @ 6pm den rushed to school.. Stupid quiz.. Each haf 2 questions, which is 50 marks each & we are juz given 30min for each paper. DiaOz loh~ Law one still ok, law two wat i studied (same for everyone) nv come out loh... (-_-") after quiz i left liao.. Meet beibei for dinner @ West Plaza..

But den again, after 5 months, once i graduated, will be able to focus fully on looking for a perm job!!

Last quick one

So... yesterday was my 1st day of work.. Damn sleepy cos surviving on 4hr sleep the day before.. Very jialat.. wanted to sleep but cant sleep.. Anyway first day of work is quite ok. Spent a lot of time listening to the manager, asst manager & the executive's handover..

The manager asked me to give her until next week, before she give me my contract, cos she wanted to confirm if she is converting me to perm or not.. so let's all pray..

Wanted to start on Wed cos of my exam today, but the manager say tat she is on leave till next week & the exec is leaving on Fri.. So asked me to start yesterday, take leave today & go back work tmr...

After work yesterday, rushed to school cos got a group presentation for our biz law project. Went quite ok. Left 1 more project presentation to go! Jiayou~~

Am gOing to study for my exma soon, for later! Haven study yet! Stressed!!

Will blog tmr abt something or rather someone i am quite pissed off at...

Busy week last week

As mentioned in earlier post, was very busy last week, due to having interviews + exams + dinners...

Monday: Went for interviews
Tuesday: Interviews + studied for international business exam
Wednesday: Interviews + IB exam
Thursday: More interviews + dinner wif BFF
Friday: Interviews + deferred business law 1 exam
Saturday: Home to meet my da yi
Sunday: Slept till 5plus, went for dinner wif beibei. Watched DVD.

More elaborations on some days:

Wed: Studied realli hard for the international business mid term exam. Glad to say tat most of wat I studied haf came out. Quite confident for the mid term. No choice haf to study hard, cos i missed one of the quiz previously (10% of total mark)

Thurs: Met my BFF after my interviews for my belated birthday hotel dinner. Hahaha.. BFF.. Exactly 3 months 1 day after my bday wor~~ =P.. Reali happy tat u still made de effort though~ Better late than never eh~ =) Haf a great time chatting wif her + catching up. We went to the Swisshotel, the Elle---- Cafe (cant rem how to spell) for the crab buffet!! Damn nice but a bit disappointing is tat all the crab dishes seems similar~ Think a lot are black pepper, chilli crab, thai flavored, curry etc. It would be great if they include the hawker specials (i.e. salted egg york, butter, creamy etc)!! But one great thing is tat they haf oysters -- my fav!! & oso the dessert are great! my fav durian pudding~~ Was rushing ard for interviews the whole day & nv eat anything, so managed to eat a lot for dinner~~ Once again, thanks to BFF for the great treat!!

Fri: Interviews, den rushed to school for deferred exam. Quite ok, of 7 qn, onli 2 not sure how to do.. Think can pass ba.. After exam, went back to meet beibei..

Sat: My da yi wanted me to teach her how to use powerpoint + she got some qns on microsoft applications + HR + admin queries. Seems tat she is working now n need to learn some pc skills... Quite hard for a 50yr old lady to learn new skills @ her age... So went home to meet her @ my place, to teach her the things. Very happy to haf helped her. Beibei waited for me for 2hrs @ Sun Plaza.. After tat, took a bus to Beach Rd for claypot rice. After tat, went back his hse to watch online show.

Sun: Damn tired, wake up late late. Den we went Simei for dinner @ Hans River. Been wanting to try tis place since i was in poly.. hahaha.. finally gt a chance to do so.. Concept is similar to Seoul garden. Loved the food. But drinks very expensive (not free flow)...

After tat went back to watch online show.. Damn jialat... Insomnia... Ended up sleeping @ 3am...

Quick updates on employment status~

Well Well.. Long time no updates again.. hahaha... been really busy previous week wif interviews and all..

Interviews & Work
Went for several interviews last week. Like i say, i wanna buck up & get on wif my life.. Debts mounting + no job = certain death.
Anyway, went for interviews wif many agencies. Some big, some small.

1) NTUC Income = Fail! Stupid recruiter sent me a JD which is totally not wat the job is abt. Went for the interview & kanna suan by the stupid uncle interviewer abt my sch of choice. Hello!! Go blame ur stupid recruiter for shortlisting me la~ Fiona & BFF will noe my gripes.

2) Dell = Fail again! Gotten the job thru EPS Consulting. Why fail? JD sent & wat actually transpired during de interview = different again! Sian. Waste my time & cab fare going down

3) Apple = Offered! But i did not take up the job. It's a 3 month contract temp role, meaning i will haf to look for a job again, before i graduate from my degree prog. Though they mentioned tat if the person performs good, they might convert the person to perm. But possibility = 20%. Not gonna take the chance, though the pay is reali attractive, the location damn near my place (in YCK) & i like the job scope.

4) Super 800 Waste Mgmt @ Senoko = Failed again. Gotten interview thru an agency. Though the location is damn cool (I gt one direct bus which takes abt 10 min to reach the place). Job scope = boring. Environment = boring. =X

5) Rio Tinto = Shortlisted. But decided to take up a job oredi so dont wanna go to the interview & make myself torn btw decision again.

6) MediaTek @ Ayer Rajah = Went for the interview & manager say will onli get back too me next week (cos she gOing on an overseas trip & back onli then). Location quite far, so not very tempted. Though is a 1 yr contract.

Went for a few more interviews but not gonna get into tat now.. Cos i haf oredi accepted an offer & haf started work oredi yesterday!! =) Today taking no pay leave cos later got a deferred exam for biz law & tmr gOt exam-quiz for inventory mgmt~~

New Job: NAme is Tanker Pacific Mgmt. Situated @ Millenia Towers @ City Hall. Gotten the job interview last Wed thru agency. Supposed to be for a 5 months contract, but a high chance of getting converted to perm role. This is a shipping company, dealing wif Oil & gas + vessel + Shipping. Technically speaking, can be considered to be in the Oil & Gas industry~

Background: The dept structure is such - HR Manager, Asst HR Manager & HR Executive. The AM is going on maternity leave in mid Dec & the HR Exec has resigned. By rite, they r looking for a 5 mth temp to come in & cover the job for the AM + HE. And they are interviewing ppl internally for the perm role. So rite now, she is rounding up the interviews for the perm position (which she has arranged before my interview last wed) and if she cant find someone suitable, she will be converting me to perm & look for another temp again~~~ Will noe the results by next week, cos she is gOing on leave fr tmr till next Monday.

Hmm... So last Wed after my interview, the next day my agent called & told me tat they wan to offer me the temp post & might convert me to perm after 1 week (kinda like probation period) if they cant find a suitable candidate. But if they do, I will be working there for the next 5 mths, which means by then i would haf graduated (hopefully) =)

Was quite troubled last week, cos was deciding btw the Apple offer & this. Cos on 1 hand, Apple is offering a higher salary + nice location + nice JD. On the other hand, this job is for a longer period + higher % of getting converted to perm + I Have been wantin to get into tis industry since last time. And also, the salary for the perm position + benefits will be better than Apple, in the event tat i get converted. Thou the JD seems to be more stressful, there will be a steeper learning curve, as I get to learn to do full spectrum of payroll..

So in the end, I decided to take up this offer... Started yesterday. So far so good. The job scope seems challenging & interesting. And the colleagues of the dept is definitely nicer than my previous co.Asst Manager is reali of calibre, unlike tat woman. And she is reali nice & willing to teach.

All these, though, are based on my 1st day of work impression. So will onli be able to comment further, when I worked there for longer. Will update more on my status next week!
