Today

Because today is a special day for me, and because I do not remember what I did on this day last year since I did not keep any records, I decided to put down the things that I did today.

1. Not on leave so had to work.

2. Had a meeting which lasted for 2 1/2 hours. Had to attend this meeting because I am taking over this account.

3. Had a nice dinner of chilli crabs in Dragon Phoenix restaurant with family.

4. Spent the night looking at random photos on Friendster, thinking how nice it is to be young, to be carefree, to do crazy things, to have the energy to do it.

I think I will keep a record of how this day goes every year from now on.

It Has Started

The signs were there. The big boss cancelled his quarterly message. The next day he sent out an email to everyone confirming that retrenchments are going to happen during this festival season.

The day after that, I went back to office to submit my claims. I was then informed that people were being asked to go to into the HR office, and retrenched. Most of them worked in the company between 10 to 20+ years, and most of them thought they were safe. As such, there were a lot of emotions involved.

The worst part is, nobody knows if that is going to continue.
