A sign of better things to come

July 10th, 2008 |

There has been news that my ogre boss is going to be transferred to another department.  Heard it from the girls giggling in the pantry when I went to get coffee.  Didn’t mean to eavesdrop as my original purpose was to get caffeine but the news got me more upbeat and caffeine was only able to reinforce the good feeling I felt when I accidentally heard that news.  It is a sign of a better tomorrow, definitely.

An ogre for a boss

July 8th, 2008 |

I just can’t stop whining about my boss, thank God I have this blog to just let the heck out of it.  Good thing the wife and I have grocery date this afternoon.  Yes, our dates consists of trips to the grocery.  Well, we don’t argue over the list just as long as she lets me grab a few beers, I’m good to go.

A gruesome week has passed

July 7th, 2008 |

Why did I said gruesome?  Work was less than a few inches than hell.  Deadlines, deadlines.  It would be a safer world if there were really no unreasonable deadlines.  Makes one wonder if the bosses really came from down the ranks or they were just thrown at those high paying positions with nothing to do but sit all day and wait for the reports.

It would really mean something if they can just do a little hands on to know that the deadlines they set aren’t realistic and are just plain bogus.

Priorities Set Straight

June 23rd, 2008 |

How can I tell some things like it is when I can’t be direct? This is a current dilemma for a writing stint that I’m asked to work on. I honestly do not know how to begin. Its a matter of what matters more to me, my friend says. I think she’s correct. Spot on.

Family Reunion

June 12th, 2008 |

The days are so quick. My cousins from Toronto are here and it’s a big reunion. I’m closest to these cousins of mine than the ones in town, despite the age difference, too. One of them works as one of the best radiologists in Ontario. Far cry from when we were younger. Man…

I’m Going to Rant

May 23rd, 2008 |

If Rant were a place, I’d be there right now. I just can’t remember the last time I had been subjected to a situation where my privacy was absolutely breached. First of all, it shouldn’t matter who I’m with. If I’m walking OR talking to someone there and if that person has hang ups with someone else, then the both of them should fix it. I also hate the fact that some people can just exaggerate stories for their own benefit. They wanna get the story-teller of the year award?

Damnit!

May 20th, 2008 |

I lost my phone. I lost my phone. My phone that’s got a couple of hundred contacts. I dunno, I took the bus to work today and discovered that my phone had just disappeared from my pocket. I must’ve dropped it, but I just don’t remember having any opportunity to have that happen. So this pisses me off as we speak.

Need a Source of Motivation?

May 16th, 2008 |

I’m so drowned with work that sometimes, I am having a hard time sleeping already. I think of work every single moment. When I’m having my private time, when driving even when I am taking a bath! It is haunting me!

Whenever I find myself in these haunting situations, I keep on searching for motivational words to improve myself and, might just get lucky to forget about work even for a few minutes.

Earlier, as I was stormed with work again, I searched on the net for motivational words and I came up with some spoofed motivational humor. I usually find strength in the bible but since, I don’t have one with me, I did that. Don’t let curiosity kill the cat…or you. Check the site out. Hope it will remove your mind off the work for a few minutes.

Airport Theft

May 12th, 2008 |
Man! My friend’s guitar got stolen at the airport. Yes, at the airport – to think that his guitar case was very distinctive, he had it personalized it still got nabbed. I know its just a Stratocaster, I mean thank god it wasn’t his Jazzmaster that got stolen but man, a guitar is still a guitar. Good thing he got it insured. Whew. Nothing new in my life, just the same old shit.
