It's been a long time since i update my blog...sorry diary for neglecting you...it's just that i've been too tired to do anything after work...Worklife's hell for me the 1st week(Okie, at least for the 1st 2 days)....Hell in the sense that i've to work doubly hard to keep up with my boss's pace, learnt everything in 2 days, work 10 hrs straight with a brief "lunch" break at perhaps 3pm...
My workplace and the people in it are just wierd..or am i the wierd one??Hmm...my colleagues dun eat lunch..so does my boss and my big boss...my boss stays in Orchard but she eat bread and instant noodles for lunch..how's that?...poor me have to lunch by myself everyday...something i die die also will not do when i'm in sch...but it beats staying in the lab for the whole day..i like to go out and take a walk and breathe fresh air...Okie, the working environment's really individualistic..Everybody's doing different things so you just have to mind your own business and do your own work..my 2 bosses already made it clear to me from Day 1 that they're the type A people, goal and result-oriented..so they say there's no fixed time for me to leave the office, as long as i get all my work done...well..so far i've managed to clear all my stuff before i go back(and that's like 1900)...but work's piling up real fast..
On the 2nd day of work, i was late for 15mins (i reached the office at 0915)..so my boss gave me a warning..."K, aren't you a little bit late?please come early tomorrow, latest by 9am...and make sure you're always earlier than M (my big boss).." (ever since then, the min i reach the office, she'll take a look at her watch to check what time i arrive...but from that day onwards, i always reach the office at around 0845..i'll not give her another chance to tick me off for lateness for the 2nd time).. then on the same day, she quizzed me about the neurology of the brain and the different functions.."K, draw the Braddley & Hitch memory model for me.."...Oh my goodness..i dun know the answer as i've thrown all of them back to Prof Liow already...how??At the moment, i really wish that i can bury my head deep under the ground..anyway, she continued to drill me about other things lah..just wun let me off...i felt really stupid in front of her..
Hence when i can finally retire for the day, i sent an sms to some of my friends...and all of them called me back...think i really sounded too stressed up over the sms and they're really worried for me...Thank you CH & PW...really...never expected my uni friends to shown their concern for me after school life...guess i'm the petty one here...Anyway, i've managed to complete my 1st week of work at the lab...and i'm really hoping that things will be better after the long weekend...I'm definitely going to upgrade myself...will go get more books to read...i'll never embarrass myself in front of my boss again..never!
oh, btw, there's this really cute medical student on attachment at the lab..his name's Mark...pretty cute...at least something to look forward in the office..hehe...
