Weekend Part Time Job

I remember few days ago, my ex-colleague from Pakistan called me to say hi... I'm so surprised that he called, since we're... Yeah, we're still friends, just that we have different directions to go and find a new life after the god damn clothing company bankrupt, so we don't have a routine contacts, which means we lead on our lives individually. He asked me if i could meet him sometime for a drink, i promised i would, as always i don't really keep my promise cuz i got so tired every weekdays, even i do have weekends, i rather stay at home, spend some quality and time with my girl since previously i don't get much chances of time to spend.

Just happened yesterday (Wednesday) i thought of calling him up to see what's up for the surprise call, also i'm waiting the time cy finished his work and we'll go for jamming session. This Pakistan friend told me he's just around my place, so it's much easier for him to look for me. I tried to go and look for him, if it's nearby, all the while he's not telling me much where he really stay. Damn, i think he might thought i'll stalk him. Jeez, i got much better things to do at home.

He in better life than anyone could possibly think. Still staying with his fatty girlfriend, grew moustache looked like an Indian, rode motorcycle (not sure if he owns it), worked 2 jobs per day: first in the morning, stitching and sewing, get paid RM5 every hour, from 9am to 2pm; Second, he owns a Pasar Malam stall, each day he'll get a place to sell Baju Kurung, Tudung, most of the items in garments are meant for Malays. Assumption income around 2k per month... Not bad huh? He did save a lot of money, but never heard he said wanna go back to his country. Get married or something?

So i thought he might need an assistant, so far he's been doing alone, what happens when nature called? He said he just had to stay on until the night is over. Good grief, was it necessary? I'm looking for a part time job, freelance if possible, thought he might need someone to help out, i just tell him i need to work on weekends, night time. I know he won't left me out of any opportunity, from his thoughts, for friends, i'm sure he'll understand. We've been through so many obstacles since my previous company, in this issue, it shouldn't be a problem. I never demand how much i should get paid, told him just pay however he thinks from his heart, more or less it should be nice to cover up my travelling expenses for every month.

Not only the job conversation, we did reminiscent about our past, how did my previous company got bankrupt. Everyone i knew got lost in touch, some they got married, bought their own vehicles, houses, some their lovers left them, found better job, work another firm, get raised, offended crime... I don't think this bankrupt story will be forgotten.

All i'm gonna do now is wait till weekends come and i'll see what my friend has to say

Some Trips

Why is everyone in my company came late to work? Ehem, i did came late, not to say i didn't, not today also, last week...

Went out with my boss to Klang meeting client. It's like more than 20 female workers and i spotted a few pretties, not so pretty but can la, on scale of 10... 5? Just passed the test though. I've been there few times and i don't get some views cuz i'm always get on the business first, while i'm done with it, i'll rush back to my office or other place i need to go. Just as i was with my boss, i'll take my time to do a survey... Hmmm, a sad lingerie company...

Then we went to Putrajaya Alamanda Shopping Mall, around Precinct 11-21. It's huge, interiors like Malay design, most of the consumers are from the residents of Putrajaya. Office workers too, spent their time walking around the mall. Most of the shops sell branded goods, and their interiors are superb, so beautiful that the cost is a car's price. Did surveyance on our client's counter, then we head to Yaohan The Mall. This time my boss went in on his own while i waited at the car opposite of the road, The Pan Pacific Hotel... Memories recalled when i looked at it...

I was 14, most of my friends work part time jobs to burn their time during school holidays, also earn some money to buy some stuffs they like. I'm excited working part time too, just wanted to know how exactly gonna be like working for someone else? So i was with 2 friends of mine ventured at The Pan Pacific Hotel applied for jobs. So we're hired, working in hotel's banquet, rm5 per hour, but we only worked 4hours per day plus it's only on weekend. Too many part timers and we had to book our time to work, pathetic huh? I worked for whole month and what i earn had been not enough due transportation fee and food, but i got to know some friends which until now lost their contacts... Such a waste...

However i did went back to work after few years and a senior who still recognised me, instantly i was hired again and took the most of the scheduled banquets... The last time i remember that myself alone serving dishes and services to Tan Sri something with his family. All the food served high value meals, so i gotta be very specific on my services and carefully make themselves feeling comfortable on their meals... So the Tan Sri was impressed, when my senior left for a moment, he slipped a RM50 note in my pocket. I was surprised, being humble, i told him i can't accept tips from the guests. He insisted till i can't really resist the money, i made more than i need...

Went back to office, just some paper works and heard that i need to follow Kenny to J.B. For shop surveyance.

Tuesday, came early, had breakfast as usual, waited Kenny finished his paperworks and we're off to Nilai, another shop surveyance. Then only we head to Masai, J.B.

Kenny drove so fast that i was afraid he'll be reckless...

About 2 hours plus reached Masai from Nilai, did surveyance and head back to KL again... This task really pathetic, all the way down, just a minor item replacement and not even half an hour we're there. So this journey consumed the whole day, and i'm fortunated that Kenny's the one driving all the way, i was asleep while we're heading back to KL...

I don't know, i like this job. I hardly smoke cigarettes, all my collegues none smokers, only me, the only one. I'm kinda saving money too, i don't have to spend much money on beverages, also i did once cook Cintan mee in the office.

Centurions

It was called Centurions..

My Short Weekend to Chill..

Yups, next weekend and week a long holiday due Hari Raya and Deepavali, i'm sure me and my girl won't be working and gonna meet each other spend more time together..

For this weekend, i've planned not to go anywhere. Last week when i paid Yulius a visit, borrowed damn lots of movies to watch. I've been movie craze ever since i bought DVD player, plus good mini sound system, boosted and stereolized my whole room, totally enhanced my mood rather i used to watch movies with a pair of damn speakers with low volume output.

I've been writing this when i just woke up at Saturday night, watched too much movies got me headache.. Damn stupid phone of mine got restarted and the whole damn thing were unsaved, so i gotta compose again in another version, can't remember what i've wrote..

So, i knew i had to stay at home no matter how, gotta save up money for another big weekend, there's a pit party happening in Sepang, where all my good friends are going, also my girl and her brother.. Of course my girl's following me, not her brother. He had to find another way to get there, or my journey won't be fun at all.. I'm not sure the tickets i've won can be redeem, heard a friend told me it could be limited or just part of their idea to lure us there, ended up had to pay our cover charges.. Also my car mileage almost due, by next month i've to get it serviced, so it's going to be a big spending for me. So staying at home is a good idea..

One of all the movies i've watched, the best movie is Fight Club.. Oh shit, the first rule of Fight Club, YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB. Shit, i've said it 3 times in a row.. Fucking good movie, really twisted and multiplied the ideas how the main character got into such weird things going on. The scenes are perfect, moving cameras are good, character wise, best selections, music from The Dust Brothers.. Holly shit, the best and i have a copy from cy, been listening every night before i go to sleep, good remedy for fantasizing yourself in somewhere you couldn't imagine, totally dejavu when got high.. I did drunk and watched the movie, purposely bought 2 big bottle Carlsberg for the experiences of unbelievable miraculous twisted mind.. Oops, did spent some already..

Cy, i remembered the last time we got highed and watched Scooby Doo.. I got no idea why we're watching that instead of a good twisted movie, we had fun, alright, just that it's not as good as watching Fight Club.. Oh shit, the first rule of Fight Club, YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB. Shit, i've said it 3 times in a row.. Again..

Blurry Sunday, i woke up early in the morning, forced myself up just to watch cartoons.. I missed them a lot, ever since i've been working for 10 years, i don't get to watch. Seems like the cartoons changed a lot, don't have Transformers, M.A.S.K.S, Spiderman and His Amazing Friends (Iceman and Firestar), Saber Rider, Voltron, He-Man, Thundercats, Macross, Silverhawk, The Extremers? (i don't know, they used to call out "Power Extreme!" when they need either gears or equipments merging on their suits with studded holes, all 3 of them: Green one is with moustache, leader of the team, his gears are for sea; Blue one is blonde hair, charming guy, his gears are for air; last one, Orange, looks like a typical guy, his gears alternately use on air, land and sea. The coolest guy which his land gear is a man-motorcycle.) If anyone gets the idea what cartoon is this, drop a comment in this post. This cartoon had been shown on TV around late 90's and i'm sure i've watched it in late 80's, there's a rerun but it's not showing anymore. Perhaps these cartoon characters in the past created heroes in our childhood, when i get to watch the cartoons recently, none of them are entertaining, no storyline, it's like cheating the children, sorry if i offended, but it's true enough to say so. If ever there are reruns on these cartoons i've mentioned, sure i'll make my time watching them no matter what circumstances...

After the cartoons, i went to take my laundry, bought some stuffs to make coffee, found a saloon having a haircut promotion, just as i wanted to get my haircut, cost rm9 reasonably... Then, cleaned up my room and myself, had coffee and felt stomach aching all the sudden. Took pills that eased the pain, got drowsy and went to sleep.

Then my pal cy called, just as i remembered that i had to go for a jamming session. Damn, the pain still there, hitted a heavy dose. Couldn't sleep either, watched movie again... Later on got hungry, about 8pm after, went to take a light dinner, thank god i felt drowsy. Again put on Fight Club's tune, begun the twist on my head, still thinking about the performance appraisal form... Did some sms with my girl, she's been at home after her class, helping her mom doing house chores, since last week she got herself some troubles, now it settled. And we're ready for the upcoming pit party, babeh!

Oh well, what's up for the next day? Monday... I feel like terrified every single moment with my boss, and of course it's all about the appraisal shit... I'm considered new all these, i could figure out what he had figured out, so it means nothing to him. He let me hesitate for some time thinking over, but his eyes were not humble, so i guess i'll be dead without a clear reply... Shit...

"I'm a whiz,
with a blitz,
came alchemist,
gave me quiz,
from the gist,
formed a twist,
gripped my fists,
tried to enlist,
but to risk,
i must persist."









...... how?
