Mood is PISSED and upset today.
It's so trivial to talk about work but when one spend more than 8 hours a day in the office, one cannot help becoming self-absorbed.
I have a shipment from supplier that was being rejected by our guys in warehouse. Rejected because the date in our system shows May 21, so there is absolutely no reason for us to receive the shipment being sent today. After checking everything i could lay my hands on, the conclusion was not to receive the shipment. So the poor delivery guy from supplier has to send the goods back. NY called and insisted that we did an expedite for the goods so we had no right to reject the shipment. Told her nicely i can't get help this time because we are talking about 200kpcs of connectors. Jessie snatched the phone over, "HAR-LOW-ed" me in a rude tone and shouted/threatened over the phone the following few points:-
1) you people did the pull-in now HOW COME reject
2) your company is a big problem, it's a messy one
3) i will transfer all your businesses to my other disty, let you all die
4) no need to apply special price for the enquiry that i sent you yesterday, i won't give your company the business anymore, i will give it to another disty
5)you know how much trouble NY face?
6) i will charge your company the delivery charges!!
7) i will write to your upper management and put Natarajan, Charles in the copy
* of cos, everything was spoken in stuttering "broken English" which irked me alot
When i tried to explain the situation to her, she said "我现在不想跟你讲这样多" and slammed the phone. Fwah fuck lo, damn bloody rude.
I was so shocked that i stun-ed for a moment. Then i did the unimaginable, i called her boss to complain. I mean it's unimaginable cos i don't "backstab" others but this is too much. As i was yakking to him, i feel tears in my eyes..tears of frustrations and anger. He must have detected my strange tone and he spoke so gently. Fwah, so tears and "sai nai-ing" works heehee
We had lunch at Jack's place this afternoon to celebrate Jasmine's birthday. Only Chinyiang, Catherine, Aising, Amy, Andrew, Joyce, Jasmine, Sarah and me went. Sean had dentist hmmm so sad he couldn't make it..cannot share my frustrations with him..going to explode man..
Went to NUH to visit KW this evening but he was sent to do some scan when i got there so i never got to meet him...instead, found his aged parents sitting on the sofa discussing something in Cantonese. Apparently, KW will be transferred to another ward and for tonight, he would be in the high dependance ward after the scan. There were eight baskets of flowers/fruits in the ward and his dad wants to call KW's wife to come collect them. So i had to call all the numbers which he gave me but non were correct. In the end, called Tuck Meng for KW's house phone number but he didn't have it. Wah lau...and my mobile phone's battery was going flat...finally, his dad took out a piece of paper from his wallet and i managed to get hold of KW's wife. She asked me to help her to arrange with the nurses cos "my father-in-law is very lor suo" haha Ok anyway, to cut the story short, i spent about 30 minutes co-ordinating the flowers/fruits basket with KW's wife and his sister. Both the wife and sister are so snappy at the poor father. Now i see where he get his "suay kuan" from. KW is not exactly the type of supplier i like but there is just this lil' voice that said "go visit today" and that's how i found myself in NUH...to help arrange for the safety of the flowers/fruits basket, his wallet, mobile phone, slippers and help his parents?? Left the ward at around 7.40pm and called Tuck Meng to tell him everything's settled. And he asked what happened in the afternoon. Haa, tears work well ya :p (my dearest bak bak sistas..i didn't mean to use tears heehee can't help it...sorry i didn't do what Samantha would have done) Good that he asked cos i "complained" more to him subtlely lalalalalalala
Jfk picked me up and we went Yishun for dinner..phew...i was famished by the time we got there :(
For every bitchy person that one meets, there will always be other angels around :)
Amanda msn-ed me the moment that stupid woman slammed the phone down on me. Asked me to cool down and gave me space to cursed and swear at that crass idiot. Andrew, Amy and Chinyiang who were in my "lorong" tried to cheer me up. Sean, best hee, messaged me during lunch: "Listen...God's calling. Germaine dun b irritated by some idiotic person. There are more meaningful things for you than wasting ur energy on it." Gee thank God for friends :D

Sorry to hear about the problem you had with your shipment it is usually a common problem with everyone, procedures can sometimes be amended with a simple contingency when something like what you had happened, you usually have to go through your chain of command to remedy the problem by suggesting a solution, be careful when writing up your solution, you should try to empathize on all sides of the situation normal all fouled up incident. You will be surprised at how easy they are to listen and incorporate your idea once you mention it will allow them a better professional standing in everyone's eyes. As always thank you for your blogs.
