Sunday, August 26, 2007Tagged not just once, but twice!!!I've been busy the past few weeks that I neglect updating this blog. Much worse, I just couldn't find the time to answer those meme(s) my fellow good bloggers have tagged. Some of those memes are memes I have already answered before so I'm just gonna answer the new ones. Because today is Sunday, I'll take this opportunity to answer those. Here is one from Eli. This one, they called as the "birthday meme."This tag’s rule is to:
Important Events that happened on March 12 1933- Great Depression: Franklin Delano Roosevelt addresses the nation for the first time as President of the United States. This was also the first of his "Fireside Chats." 1993- North Korea nuclear weapons program: North Korea says that it plans to withdraw from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and refuses to allow inspectors access to Nuclear sites. I share the same birthday with: 1386- Ashikaga Yoshimochi, Japanese shogun 1953- Ron Jeremy, American pornographic actor (LOL) Celebrated Holiday: Arbor Day in People's Republic of China and Taiwan. Aight! I'm done with Eli's Tag. Now I'm gonna do Carlo's meme, the one word meme. Where is your cell phone? In my room Relationship? Engaged Your hair? Very Long Work? QA Supervisor Your sister? 1 Your favorite thing? DVD Your dream last night? AhhHh, it was horrible. It'll take another post for that. Your favorite drink? Big Chill's green mango Your dream car? Any car, as long as it has great sound system set-up. The room you’re in? Living room Your shoes? white sneakers from Converse Your fears? Not doing all the things I want to try before I die. What do you want to be in 10 years? A stay-home mom with a home-based business Who did you hang out with this weekend? The entire family! What are you not good at? Office Politics Muffin? Blueberry One of your wish list items? hhhHmm..can't think of any Where you grew up? Quezon City Last thing you did? Watched Episode 19 of CSI Las Vegas Season 7 What are you wearing?

Your pet? rocky, a shih tzu that Russell gave me last year Your computer? desk top: a generic one, bought from Gilmore Notebook: HP, don't know the model though Your life? A ride like a roller coaster Your mood? Lazy, it's Sunday today and all I want is to sleep, watch, eat, watch and eat again...LOL Missing? You know who.... lol What are you thinking about right now? You know who...(again!) Your car? I don't have a car, im a professional commuter...LOL Your kitchen? We have a kitchen and the so-called dirty kitchen... Your summer? March to May Your favorite color? Red Last time you laughed? a minute ago Last time you cried? Last Thursday (another entry for this) School? U.P. Love? Family, Russell and my QA Team. Dang! I finished this meme in less than 10 minutes! I guess I'm in the mood right now. Meanwhile, I'll go back to my weekly blog hopping. :) 
Work has been always toxic. Don't get me wrong. I still like what I am doing. I just don't feel great working with darn people who aren't smart enough to figure out quick solutions to simple problems. Anyway, amidst all the negative vibes I'm getting from these stupid people, I just thank God for giving me people who would always put a smile to my face when ever I feel AGIT (READ: agitated). I've been meaning to post these pictures taken a few weeks back during Marianne's (one of my QAS) beerday celebration. It's just now that I was able to transfer the files from my flash disk to our desktop.  Me and my crazy crew (only a quarter of them) Avhen on finding his True Love: Who is bottom? The cast of Dream Gays ahhhh...They are competing who's gonna be the Beyonce in our production number Don't ask me. I don't know either what they are doing here. LOL Welcome to Punchline's PrimeTime Show!!It was a humid Saturday. Marianne's house is just a 10-minute ride away from home. I didn't dress up. I just had my usual 'pambahay'- shorts and overlength tshirt. I was there at around 10pm. I brought Magic Sing with me to spice up the night. I know that my gay QASs sing awesome. It was a very intimate, simple yet very entertaining celebration I have ever attended. We stuffed our stomach with roasted chicken mixed with rosemary leaves, sumptuous siomai and overly delicious seafood carbonara. Marianne and Bona (QA from day shift) made some great mixed of punched. Everybody was so game and hyper. There never was a dull moment. Being with my gay crew only means one thing: WACKY! I'll say this once again... I can live with out any girl friends or boy friends. But I cannot certainly live with out gays in my life. :)

Sunday, August 19, 2007StressedFor some of my frequent visitors, it's very evident that I have not been updating this blog for a while--an unusual case for me. The culprit? WORK. I've been a QA supervisor for more than a year now but I have never been this stressed. I used to be feisty and optimistic. I would always see the positive side of an unpleasant situation. I love the people I work with: my boss(es), my QAS and the very professional and awesome client from Washington. Be it on a professional or personal basis, I am learning a lot from these people around me. Until last month. Somebody, I mean a motha-fucka imbecile just got promoted. Somebody who doesn't have the skills and knowledge about how the line of our business plays the tricks of the trade. All she knows is how to kill her idle time by making "tambay" to the office of our Vice President. In fairness to our VP, he is a fair and good man. He just have no time now to talk to his junior management staff since he is also busy doing things for the upcoming business in China and Brazil. Things are a lot worse when our current mgr is in the floor. God, how I wish that J.E got promoted instead.  with Nina: One of my good office chummyness, a smoker. LOLI am really on the verge of quitting my job if not only for my people and the master plan of getting a whole-december leave to spend time for my upcoming wedding (and holiday season as well). I feel burnt out. It feels like I am doing the task of the manager, only with lesser salary. I do all-in-one task: contacting the IT, network,payroll,HR and keeping in touch with our client from Washington. Goodness gracious! I now even have my lunch on my workstation. I don't smoke. But last Friday, my virgin lungs finally got a taste of nicotine. Since I am quite popular with the Ops and QA Department, those who are in the "lung center" were quite surprised because "THET is SMOKING!" Yep. That is how stressed I am.  I swear to God. After Russell leaves on March, I'm gonna quit this fcuking job. I'm just gonna consume all the time-off days that are left for me. I have never been a bum ever since so I guess I will try being a bum for a month, at most. I need to rejuvenate my energy. I need to re-live my passion with what I am doing. I need to bring back my OLD SELF.
Ok. So classes and government agencies are not open today. Unfortunately for lowly-life call center professionals like me, we got no other choice but to come to work. I could have opted to go on sick leave but I'd rather not use it. I'm saving it for days when I will get "tamad" when Russell is finally here. If you will ask me whether I like rainy days rather than summer, I would give u a loud YES! I don't know what's with the rain but it makes me feel more relaxed. I am not really a beach bum and I don't like beating the scorching heat. I mentioned in some of my previous posts that unlike other call centers, we are strict when it comes to coming to work in business casual. Fortunately, we were allowed to go on dress down for the entire month of August. But yesterday, I went beyond what is expected from us. I went "too dress down". Talk about being PASAWAY.  It comes in pair: Bermuda Shorts and Havaianas! Summer ba?! Parang nagpa-load lang sa kanto... LOLSince it's raining so hard, we all couldn't get out of the building. McDonald' s is just beside our building but some of my team members dialed their hotline and had a food delivery. I, on the other hand (with a couple of QAS), opted to have Jollibee. I had the creamy macaroni soup and spicy chicken. What a very relaxing whether! I feel guilty for liking this kind of whether considering that there are lots of people out there who are suffering from mud and landslide. Sorry naman po... Oh well, that's all for now folks!
