My boss has decided to release me earlier than my official last day of work. Suddenly I found that I have 2 weeks to spare before my new job starts on 10 Dec.

Yesterday was my first free day so I spent the whole day at home cleaning my "pig sty". I dislike cleaning the house because everyone in the house contribute the filth but not clean them up. It is always I who have to do it and I hate doing it alone. It would be better if is a group effort.

Blame it on my hubby and I who dote on our daughters Estee n Esther. Both cannot cook and keep their rooms clean. I have learnt over the years to turn a blind eyes to the untidiness around the house. But occasionally this scene makes me mad and I will start throwing things away to make the house neater.

After a tiring day of cleaning I was very satisfied and happy of the renewed shine in the house. Though it is not 100 percent done but hope this will be the motivation to continue to completion. I told my hubby that the floor is so scrubbed cleaned that last night he is invited to make the floor his bed. He laughed heartily and told me that he will work harder to keep me at home so that the house is clean at all times.
Well, I just hope that my two girls' future husbands would be one who can cook and will help in the cleaning of the mess at home. If not, be well to do enough to get maid or part time cleaners to do the job!

Free At Last

Parting is always sad. But it is I that chose to part. I have decided to leave my job and it is the resignation notice period before you finally leave the job that is difficult to pass.

I was taught in church that one should have the spirit of excellence in whatever in do. So even though my boss seldom comes to office, I will always come to work on time and go back normally beyond my working hour. I would do beyond what my boss want me to do, thinking of ways that could help him better his job and bringing in more sales. I chose not to misuse the handphone he allows me to use by chalking his bill up or waste my time chit chatting even no work was given to me. I will find something to occupy my time by doing his filing or calling his client for update.

He is one of the best boss that I have in my entire career. He is never demanding but ever so polite. He would says, "May, can you do me a favour, can you...........".

Well then why did I quit? Yes for better monetary reward of course.

Agonising Moment!

Agony, Agony! That was what I went through yesterday. I have decided to tender my resignation but I was totally disturbed as I waited for the opportune time to tell my boss on my decision to quit.

I felt this way because he is such a nice boss. The best I ever had in my whole career life. But for some reason, I just need to quit. Finally I plucked enough courage and sent him an sms message, followed by an email and also left a copy of my resignation letter on his desk.

He finally came in around 3pm and immediately I apologised that I have to leave. What a relief when he said "Oh, it is alright" and he gave his usual charming smile. "I will get another one." I felt so relieved yet sorry for him.

I do not know what kind of a boss I will get for my next job but trust that the Lord will lead me to the best he has installed for me. From the bottom of my heart I want to wish him well.

So boss, I hope that I have been a good assistant to you though I know my my presence has not really increase yr sale but definitely eradicate the headache of arranging viewing for yr clients.

All the best wishes to you and congratulations to you for getting married soon.
