Had a meeting with Boss and Adeline this morning. The agenda was about the workshop for this coming Saturday. We raised several issues with him, but ultimately they were thrown out of the window. We felt that it was unnecessary for him to conduct the workshop once every 3 months (I mean, how much changes can happen in such a short period?). His idea was that the workshop was to better understand our own goals and of course, his goals for us (What the hell, isn't he harping on sales targets every now and then?) I also suggested that it would be good if we could be in informal attire during the workshop because it fell on a Saturday and that it was an internal affair. He rebutted; saying that we were in the front line and it was essential that we had to look formal at all times (What the fuck, cut us some slack, baby!). Since our concerns were not addressed, we felt that there was nothing to discuss and ended the session.
Felt tired throughout the whole day; I had no mood to work : ( Guess I was too burnt out : ( I just wanted to sleep. It didn't help that the resumes that I received were not exciting - Mainly for those positions which I had filled : ( What a waste of time.
Made a trip down to Aunt Helen's - Guess my face was in need of maintenance after I saw some budding pimples on the right side of my face : ( Good to see Aunt Helen again; she would always share her life experiences and (dry) gossip with me : ) Fortunately, there was her, else I believed my face would be in a severely bad shape right now. Used to have multiple blackheads on my nose and my face could excrete so much oil such that a packet of tissue was not sufficient (Those were the days!)
After facial, strolled down to Emerald Food Court to have dinner - Had beef noodles. Quite satisfying to have beef noodles soaked in thick and gooey gravy mixed with lotsa chilli after a lousy day at work : ) Didn't know that simple things can wrap up a lousy day : )
