Work

I've started working, the work was offered by Joe's mum. She's really kind to call me up and ask if I wanted to go for a job interview with Joe. Well, I did. And I got the job, alongside Joe. The company's a manufacturer for HP printers/laser plastic parts. So we gotta stick barcodes on all of them and pack them into boxes for shipping. The cool thing about this is that wherever we go around the world, we can see HP printers that we've actually touched before. So that's kind of impressive.

The sick thing is....

We're suppose to do all this monotonous repetitive things everyday.

But, I guess money is the biggest incentive.. money is always the biggest incentive to force someone into doing something - fortunately. Anyway it's crazy fun cause we have loads of Malaysian Aunites there, and they crack jokes and make the working environment really comfortable and lite. There's even a christmas part coming up in our section. And according to one of these aunties, we'll get sprayed all over with part foam, it'll be ruthless.

Even though there are many teenagers around the workplace. I didn't really bother socialising with them, I just thought it was unnessecary. I'm unfriendly huh? I know. I always am, especially to girls. The underconfidence I get when I try to mingle with girls is immense. Anyway, I can get by it... not really keen on making longterm friends in a few weeks time.

WELL. That's gonna improve when I really do take a step further into JC/Poly.. hahah...
