Leave to be approved!

Really very Pek Chek! Damn sianz with my BIG boss. Whenever I want to take leave, he will hold back and back and back! Sigh! Actually, I am very TL now. Errrgggggghhhhh..... (please bear with me for using “TL”.)

I am TL got reason one! Hey, do you know or not. Actually, I did inform my BIG boss before Chinese New Year, which is around mid Jan 2009. I told him, I am going South Africa around Eastern day that period. I told him I will be away for about 2 weeks. And his replied is, “If the economic continue to be so bad and no business, then you are able to go.” ....... *Dae*........ What kind of answer is this.

My BIG boss is a very smart guy. He will never answer you with a direct answer. Always give you an answer of neither “yes” nor “no”. And me the stupid woman, always only know either “yes” or “no”.

So anyway, I just take it as “yes” and I have informed you liao. Approve or not approve that’s your problem liao. Don’t come and scream at me saying I didn’t inform you in advance....... I respect you and give u amber time liao! (Wah！ 口气真大..... Don’t know who is the boss and who is the staff..... haha......) Errrgggghhh...... Really piss off. :(

Then around end Feb, my brother told us not to go during Apr (Eastern Day), because SA having an election and it is not safe to go during that period of them. So ok, we change it to end Jun / early Jul, because kids are having their mid year school holiday in SA.

I go back office and inform my boss again, my holiday will be postponed till Jun/Jul. At the same time, I tell him I will visit the NATAS fair and if there is any good price, I will booked the trip/ticket immediately. Then his replied was: “OK, inform me again.”

Then I happily went to visit the NATAS fair lah..... and collected a few information, and finally decide on one of the package (8D6N Mauritius + Cape Town, after that extend at Johannesburg). The travel agent took our particulars to reserves the seats for us, but we have yet to make any payment. Payment will only make upon seats are confirmed. Finally after a few days of waiting, our seats are confirmed and we need to make payment within 3 days.

So happy everything is going to settle liao..... and I walk into my boss room to submit my leave application...... Then my boss asked me: “Have you informed Goh (our manager)?” I told him NOT yet. Then he said: “Talk to him first.” Then I said: “I need to make payment within this few days.” Then he said: “Get my signature 1st before you make the payment.” Wow..... I was like....... Angry + Frustrated + Pek Chek + Piss Off + KNN!!!!!

The reason why I did not talk to our manager is because the practice here is to get boss signature will do, never go through that manager one. And I have informed you much much earlier liao! At least 6 months in advance leh! ....... Now really 哑口无言！

So suay, my manager outstation yesterday (all things happen yesterday only). He will only be back today. I tell myself, nevermind, today still have a day time still ok.

Then in the very early morning when I reach office, 1st thing I do is talk to my manager. He is an “OK” man...... Everything “OK” one. I told him boss want to talk to him about my leave. Then he say ok will talk to our BIG BOSS when he is in.

Another KNN + *a middle finger* (sorry lah........ hahaha.......)

MY BIG BOSS DID NOT COME TO WORK TODAY. He just disappeared without informing us. (Very usual. He always do that moreover he is a BOSS, what u expect!)

So how.....*dae......* Try to drag at agent side lor ..... see how long they allow me to drag lor! I think u will show your *a middle finger* too, if it happen to u.

Tell you, this is not the 1st time liao ...... I kanna it before, also quite similar. After telling him, the next day he MIA without signing my Leave.

That time I am taking 2 days leave for my YOGADANCE course. Happened that it is a Hari Raya Pusa period, and my Malay colleague will always take long leave. During that time, I did negotiate with my Malay colleague before I submit the leave form.

Then same thing lor......... He said talk to your colleague first, then I say nego with them liao..... then he say: "ok, let's check with our customer whether are they going to shut down"........ then he drag and drag and drag for a week plus and then kum guan signed my leave form lor! That time the course organizers also keep chasing me for answer ........ Sigh! Very sickening.

Believe a not, next week after talking to my manager, he will sure say:"let's check with our customer and see whether are they shuting down during that period." Then he will drag and drag and drag again.

He is the happiest man when he know our customer is shuting down...... *funny right*? People here worry no job, no work, no money. He worry about NO SHUT DOWN! SIAO....... you know why I say that! Because he ever said: "oh! They are shuting down, so that means is time for us to shut down and slow down too." (when he know that our customer's production plant is shuting down 2 or 3 days a week in last mth.) He always happy happy shut down one. Since I join this company, I realise whenever there is a chance to shut down, he will shut down. Not because of econ crisis / work load less / cost saving.

Hello.... Boss, how slow you want to go. Now, I am crawing like a tortoise liao leh. One full day, my actual working hours is only 1/2 a day. Very slow liao leh..... I know lah, you are rich and old. You don't want to stress yourself anymore so you preferred to be slow. But we still have family / commitment need to support one leh! It is good to be under you with no stress job, but too relax also NOT good what......... aiyo. Headache.

Piss off....... Piss off..... piss off...... piss off....... piss off........... or should I say KNN....... KNN...... KNN......KNN...... KNN...... hahaha.......... buay tahan right! hahaha.......
