house |
The houses price has shot up more than 30 percent since last year. The price is getting more expensive while size is getting smaller compare to years back. The market was so uncertainty because the developers has been using the excuses due to hiking price of the material and labor cost.Any body ever wonder whether the price and the quality of the house is equal enough.
The quality was not good as it was. The material is under grade and the was lower grade, and quality of the house is getting worst. For example, compare the timber 10 years ago and the timber quality now. The wood is getting hollow and lighter. The electricity wiring getting thinner and more expensive.
Tonnes of people has been dub just because of the "Sweet and Superb" interior and exterior decoration. The designer has over charge their customer with uncessary billing. Idea has been copy here and there. There are not many talented designer who can create a magic to your house. There is nothing for you to be proud of, today you might have the best designed house then few week later people started to copy your design and there are nothing special for your to talk about it any more.
I have personally experience this. I have seen ............to be continue

Money making factory.. |
Recently, i dont feel the excitement of working in the bank. I have been keep on repeating my work from day to day without any new things to learn. When talk about the features, the management will just find a "rubbish" reason to delay the entire process. My working life seems so useless.
Working in the bank seems waste of time for me. If I have not set my goal to be one of the top banker in the region i guess my working life will be even bored. Looking at tonnes of people who run their daily routine just like me. I feel so lazy doing anything. I guess this is the "best" part working in the bank. If you have achieve your monthly target in the beginning of the month. Then the rest of the month you will be doing nothing. "Just like a homeless ghost" walking around without a goal. You will be repeating the job each and every month.
For the bankers who doing investment, it would be a rough time for them because the customer is losing money, profit is not guarantee since the market is so "damn volatile" only people who trust the "CON" will get into deep shit. The sweet talk by the $$$ people who run around like "dingo" looking for their pray to feed their own stomach. Only little percentage of $$ people who will put their own shoe into their customer portfolio. To look for the chance to make extra profit for their customer. I dare you people out side. " Go to the " $$ factory" and ask the people who trying to sell you products. Do you bought it your self since you are pushing the product to me ?"
While people are losing their profit, those people are laughing with their pocket full of " sunshine".
The working life and attitude of this people are horrible. Met tonnes of them, hate most of them. To fulfill their own pocket, they have lost their own dignity and working ethic. Money has transfer the young people to a money sucking monster.
I am lost out there, if not because of making some living i would prefer to make money by drawing and designing.
With no experience, i guess i need to work hard on it. But ......................... I am lost..............

road to " Be a Interior designer" |
Design a house interior and exterior always is my activity for my pass time.To show my design and give some opinions to friends and relatives on their house is always my pleasure. The more u ask the "higher" i goes. From landscapes to roof top. I always have my idea to break the normal design.Without a certificate, i still manage to come out with a design that presentable.
For your information, the house that I'm staying now took me about 6 months to complete. From an empty old house to a brand new refurbish home.
The process of building it from demolish the old structure is always fun for me. The slow and keep changing process is very irritating but when come to the result. Is speechless when all the people passes by would request for a peek into the house.
Below are some of the pictures after construction.
For people who need some ideas or opinions on house to re-construct your own house may drop me a msg so i may reply u asap.

Happy Me! |
I can sense that my working life getting better since the first day of the year. Even though there are so many obstacles I have to face through. Finally the 4 months of working pay out something. I manage to back on the track. I can set 4 appointments a day so at the end of the day I would tell my self that. “YEAH BOY, keep up the good work” Do not let the rest look down on you.
Today I have met up with 4 directors for 3 different company, different character of peoples, but I noticed something similar which is they are in the early 30’s and they are the owner of the companies and they getting 5 figure salary monthly. Suddenly while filling up the form for my client, I started to think when will I have my own business and get a fat pay cheque at the end of every month. Then I started to look around and realize that I don’t have any idea that what kind of business I would like to run. Never mind, I tell my self, just give me some times for sure I can prove to myself that I can be like them too, own my business and get a fat pay cheque every month.Or maybe better than them.
After complete fill the documents, I went back to office. Is about 5p.m. and my working hour on Friday ended at 5, at that moment I just feel that I do not have enough time for my work and it was the first time I don’t feel like going home early because I wanted to finish my work. The satisfactory of completing a job is there, I don’t mind stay back abit late so I can finish up my job. The day was so peace because I have close a case and the snobbish lady was having her leave.
The day end fast. While having my dinner, my another customer call up and asked me to collect his company documents. For the sake of my job, I have agreed to look for him at night this is because I have to make sure that I provide a good service for the in convenient bosses and also to prove that my manager never hire a wrong person. Yahoo!!
I have spent my working hour in quality and I’m ending my blog with Good night….

The snobbish old lady |
For the past 4 months my working life was mess up, feel like I'm wasting my time in the office doing nothing. Never hit my target, nagged by my lady boss and top management has been a routine for me. Those wasn't the last thing happen in the office. The worst thing was the my "assistant branch manager" aka P.A aka front desk. She is the worst among all.
Lets name this lady ROSE.
I still remember, the first day to work , i was greeted by a middle age lady with manner and she was very helpful. Helping the new hire on the arranging the working area, stationary and such.Hmm not bad.
Week goes by, and i feel that she was not the polite lady that i saw for first time. The lady that i see now is a person who like to command, complaint and act like she's the branch head who control everything from cleaning to management. She even correct my boss pronunciation. She commented my boss. " Is not roadster is Roaster" In front of us. The telling her old time story. "When i was young, i always visit a stall and it has been more than 20 years the owner of the store still remember me."
The last week she scolded me!!Damn! I was suppose to get my ID code for the credit card so i called HQ regarding the matter. The answer i got was me and my colleagues have to answer a set of question before we entitle our code. So the personnel from HQ advised us that we should get our branch assistant "ROSE" "MAMA SANG" to assist us. The ROSE lady agreed to help us out so she liaise with the HQ for the set of question and we may continue on our job. After few hours the branch intern called me. " XXX, The lady call u." So the rose lady command " Take your exam in the room now" I replied : I will do it later, I'm in middle of something". So what i do was i just go back to my seat and do my job. WOnder what are the question that she will give to us.
OK time to check my mail......
Suddenly i notice that i received a mail from HQ and the content was " Please complete the exam and send it back to me" So what i do was i print the question out and try to discuss and figure out the answer. Suddenly the OLD LADY came in, she was about to go out for lunch. She saw I'm holding the set of question and with an angry look she said " I asked you to take the exam in the room just now but you refuse! Why are you doing it now? How do you get the set of question??!!"
" I just got it from HQ, they even sent the mail to us.So i just print it out and DO!" I replied!
"Please make it clear, they never send it to you. They email it TO me and CC to you so they are expecting me to arrange it for you guys!"
"Yayayaya" I just ignored her and keep looking for the answer.
She was so piss off and she said " I give you time to grow up, you would not know". She just walk toward the door and make a call.
It was so funny and satisfy when i see her face!! hahaha. She tried to call up HQ to report the case but the person in charge was out of the office.
THe next step is, i called up the person in charge and tell him what have happen to us. He just reply me " Dont worry about it, is not an exam. U just do it and reply me the answer through email."
hahaha rubbish old lady try to put me in trouble. Finally she back from lunch and the first thing she do was ask me to pass up the answer so she can manually send it to HQ for processing.
"NO need, i just called HQ and they said is not an exam and just reply them through email" AHAHA she was speechless and piss!!
Snobbish old lady! you met your opponent now!
The latest thing happen to me was, I'm having some discussion with my client and another colleague in the room. The bloody old lady just came in without knocking the door and just mention that "He is the one who looking for you this morning".
I was stunned!! OMG we are having our discussion please behave! " After my client left the office, straight i look at her and say " Next time when i have client in the room and we are having our discussion please do not just interrupt us! OK." Her expression change and still dare to answer me " OK! I wont go in next time. Just for your client" Damn!!!#$#$ IS she stupid or what@!! Is a simple working manner ok!!! I reported all this situation to my colleagues so they know what to do next time.
The latest story happen yesterday on 9 Jan 2008. She interrupt my conversation with my mortgage colleague. She told my colleague " I have 5 pairs of swimming suit and bikini. I wanted to go for swimming to keep my self fit but i have to wait for my husband together. But now i have to pass my swimming suit and bikini to my niece since i cannot fit into it. " HAhaha what a joke!!!

Foolish Tour guide |
Family is always number 1, so my uncle has planned for a family trip to Langkawi. The master planner has gathered all the family members of total 27 people for the trip. So the date, transportation and accommodation have been prepared earlier. Since my uncle has been in the tourism field for about 15 years. He get the best services, hotel and meals at a cheaper price.
Our Journey started from Cheras to Kuala Perlis by bus. The bus was so comfortable; we had snacks and jokes in the bus. Disturbing my Grandparents is the main thing in the bus. Both of them has been marriage for about 50 years. Funny part was they love to quarrel. My grandpa and grandma would not sit side by side.
So as usual I will said “ Cumon just sit beside your husband.”
Grandma: “ I don’t want, he just make me feel messy!”
Me: “ If u said messy then why both of u get married for such a long time! Ohh, when you were young you are so loving but when get old u said the old man make u feel messy”
(Haha!!! everybody laughing)
Cant believe a skinny tall Indian guy can fix it all alone.Finally the tyre has been fixed so continue. Around 10a.m we arrived at Kuala perils jetty. Too bad we have to wait for another 2 hours for the ferry because we are late. FINE!!
Everybody on board and finally we arrive at Langkawi around 2p.m.
Thank God!
Story begins here…………….
Everybody is hungry and hot. 27 peoples waiting outside of the jetty for a tour bus. So a guy came to us and inform us that his bus is on the way so asked us to wait for 15mins.
Waited and waited…….It has been 30 mins. Finally a lousy bus arrived. The tour guide asked us to leave our luggage by the road side so later on another better condition bus will pick up for us. Mean while he said we use the lousy bus to restaurant for Meal. Everyone started to grumble. “What?! Is not safe to leave it there!” Everyone so piss off Without any alternative way, we decided to bring our luggage together with us in to the smelly old bus. From that moment on ward, we does not feel good with that Tour Guide. In the bus, he introduce himself as SAMMY, and started to bull shit about things and talk about Langkawi as seem as we do not know about that place. When we asked about where is the restaurant? He replied “ Is near to your hotel and it take us about 15mins to the place.”
What the heck?! 15 mins again? The bus driver drove about 30mins to a restaurant that served Lobster. Hmmm..It better be good. So that SAMMY TOUR Guide, took up the mic and announced “ We have arrived so everybody get down and please carry along your luggage. Since is we going to have lobster for lunch, we forgive him. Suddenly :” Everybody , I’m so sorry this is not the restaurant that we going to have lunch for today. Please carry your luggage back to the bus and continue our journey to another restaurant.”
He announced again: “Sorry for the mistake, we will be arriving at the restaurant in 15mins time. This time it took us more than 30 mins to reach and we only take about 20mins to finish our lunch. Horrible.!!!!!!
Next plan - Check in
