I’m not sure if I should go on a hiatus. I don’t get much computer time anymore. When I get to use the computer, I’ve got other things to do…blogging becomes last priority and I never get to it in the end. When I want to blog, I don’t have access to my computer. I’m still trying to figure out…

work, school, my life
Few things to address… Home realistic-soul.net is 2! I don’t remember the exact date I bought this domain but since my site went down for awhile coz it was time to pay up then I knew. I downgraded my webspace plan. Over-ambitious me bought quite a huge amount of webspace only to let it go to waste for over one…
in those lonely minutes
Since yesterday, my neighbour at work, Roseleen, decided to break the silence in the morning by listening to music. Her neighbour is still updating her blog and reading blogs to entertain herself in those lonely minutes where MSN is not available. It’s not like MSN is not available. As I type, the Windows Messenger icon is staring back at me. Now, it…
going high-tech
It came as a laugh for me. Never imagined NTUC Income to get all high-tech. Oh well, they have caught on on the youtube craze. You can almost find anything and everything on youtube these days. Wonder whose brilliant idea was it. CEO’s interview on how to maximise investment returns for your CPF savings. *It looks kinda ermz…unnatural…so scripted. Like…
work stress
I’m damn stressed. I have been logging out a lot and not reaching my supposed quota of 50 calls. So what if I have 8 closings to date? Everything else still matters.
cars and the insurance
Any Singaporean who doesn’t drive would also know that owning a car in Singapore is a killer. Most would say it’s the COE that’s the killer. I would say it’s the whole package. Ever since I started dealing with motor insurance, I must say I’ve learnt quite a bit. I’m even itching to churn out a quotation for myself with…
management lessons
Today’s a bad day. 🙁 I had to handle 2 problematic calls which of course, I pick the calls, MY ass is on the line. To kena twice in a day makes me feel like I’m going to be suay for 3 years. I cannot understand why people refuse to accept the alternative and want to persist in forcing you into a…
moving along fine
I think I’m coming along fine. I just completed a week of my no-life shift. Each team is taking turns to work late each week from now till Dec. Next week I’ll be going for motor insurance training. Good luck to me. Moving forward from the comfort of working on the easiest type of insurance – travel insurance. Quite interesting.…
the irony at work
Almost 2 weeks in the new job. Seriously speaking, I wasn’t too sure of it when I started out. I hadn’t expected to be working in a call centre. When I was told I would be answering calls, I didn’t expect like 24/7. I tried very hard to convince myself to not give up. The words of the lady at…
jobless
Bad news. My supposed supervisor was supposed to hand in the request for temporary staff to the director’s office. He didn’t know so anyway, he finally did. And bad news. The director did not approve, saying that their department has enough temporary staff and coz of the budget, no more new temporary staff at the moment. Which means, I can’t…
