Finally have time for rest & animes ...

Right, the first weekend after I started working for a temporary full time job. Yesterday, I managed to finish my work by 17.35, so ... I get to leave early. Well, at least earlier than my first day at work. The last 2 hrs or so of my work time yesterday was spend 'boxing' - for the 2004/2005/2006 (first six months) documents, and labeling them, accordingly. Went to lunch with Christ and Merly - at the canteen situated opposite of the company building. After lunch, Merly taught me how to use the Agile programme, and that's probably what I will be learning next week as well. Anyway, work aside - my mother wanted me to pay her back the amount of money she used for my transportation when my salary was credited into my bank account. Also I think the food expenses as well , thankfully - excluding saturday. Right, and I would need to pay her back the money for the PC formatting/CD writer ... and office softwares - the other time ... also for my new clothes and shoes for work....

First day of office work ...

First, I'm 3 minutes late, as I had trouble finding the exact location of the company. Should I say a 'Plant' instead ? My department office was situated in the factory itself, and its' temperature was more of the AOA room back in ITE. In fact, the whole place resembled an ITE itself. Only, the canteen was situated on the 4th level. There's a gym, but only perm staff could access for it require their ID card. Mine's a temporary staff ID card, so it was one without 'code'. Anyway, I spend the whole day of work doing stamping of documents, sorting and filing. Photocopying and Scanning as well, mainly paperwork. The only data entry I did today, was to update the company stuff into their system, and their customer documents stuff. For I still had no access to my account yet, I had to work using the public PC station today. And I certainly hoped that the phone on my desk will not ring at all ... since I had no idea how to answer their call, as it wa...

Interview at RecruitExpress ...

Today, I went over to Recruit Express at Jurong JTC Summit. I met up with Eve, and the interview was alright ... the atmosphere was rather laid-back and comforting ... Which, I should thanked my lucky stars ... Anyway, she said that she would inform me if I'm shortlisted for any of the job positions which she had submitted for me ... probably within these two days... I hoped that I could get the NTU job ... for that sounds more appealing than the positions located at Pandan Rd. .. *Sigh* Will update more, if the position is confirmed.

Temp Job Hunting ...

Yes, I am on a temp job hunt ... *bleh* Went to the extend of buying newspaper and checking out online job ads. Well, I even submit my resume to sites such as 'Singapore jobs online' ... Well, that and ... I uploaded my resume to the recruit express site as well ... *wonder if I can get some response from there* If not, my last resort was to work for Mcdonalds or Mos burgers ... probably Mcdonalds ... =_=();; Well, that's the last resort though ... since this kind of job had low pay ... *Argh!* Well, I think that's all for now ... going off ...

Bored

Had no idea how to get around to the task of looking for temp jobs ... *bleh* Ended up seeking help from cousin and XH, but in all honestly - I am not holding onto any hopes or whatsoever. =_=();; The sheer idea of wanting to look for a temp job, was simply for the sake of earning some extra money for spending, and to pass my time. Secondly, I wanted to try out the office environment... Until now, I've never tried working in an office environment before ... Also, probably because I wanted to gain some practical and working experience. Aside from my experience of working in fast food restaurant, private tutor and sales assistant in the comic rental shop. Honestly, I had no idea how to write a formal and proper job application letter till' now ... and my resume was not really all glory and wonderful to look at. *sigh*

Recent Happenings

Alright, I'm left with pathetically 4 dollars from my monthly trip to Orchard, since Monday ... Bleh ... Defintely sucks to be broke... Anyway, I've spend the past few days watching animes on youtube and crunchyroll. I am contemplating if I should make use of the veoh account -_-();; cause' it have a damn slow loading speed. Either case, I've finished watching the whole of 14 episodes of Suzumiyah Haruhi on Youtube, and catch up with the Kenichi series until 43 ... am waiting for the next few episodes to be aired and uploaded. Right, In the meantime, I am watching Suzuka ... I'm done with the first two episodes and would progress on to more episodes tomorrow. In the meantime, I am looking through online Singapore jobs search website to see if there's any job offers which catches my attention. Speaking of which, Xinhui took up a temp job offer at her mother's working place with the UPS company ... Working as a Data Entry clerk over at their Finance and Acco...
