Breathing down my neck!! Can't Stand it!!!

This has been not too pleasant a day thus far..except for the fact that I had laksa for lunch and some nice mini sandwiches, courtesy of Poodie!

I was slightly early for work this morning and went with Poodie to have breakfast. When I came back, my boss asked if I was late again this morning. Reason being, I was about 10-15 minutes late yesterday morning cuz the expressway was damn bloody jammed due to 2 accidents on the ECP & AYE. Well, 15 minutes isn't exactly late to begin with when Garfield can come 45 minutes late sometimes and C used to come like 20 - 25 minutes late on average everyday. But then, since I really wasn't late this morning, I told my boss so and I even told him indignantly that I was early. I mean, if I am perpetually late, maybe you have a valid reason to screw me but on a mere few occasions, I dun think it's reason enough to question people!! I felt as though my boss was scrutinising my every move!! Really hate it!!

Another thing that really pissed me off was regarding this photography workshop we have going on now. There are actually 2 groups for this photography workshop, let's call them "Appealing" Group & "Bad-Taste" Group. The "Appealing" Group naturally comprised people I felt more comfortable with and were generally a younger crowd while the "Bad-Taste" Group comprised mainly irritating creatures like "Dustbin", "William Hung", "Witch Witchie", etc...so of course, I wanted to be part of the "Appealing" Group! But as fate would have it, my boss very "kindly" scheduled MD & I for the "Bad-Taste" Group and he also very tastefully put himself in the "Appealing" Group. But of course, as I badly didn't want to mix with the "Bad-Taste" Group, I swopped myself to the "Appealing" Group, probably much to the surprise of my boss, but I didn't care! I mean, what right did he have to dictate who I should mix around with?

But as fate would have it again, one of the outdoor sessions for the workshop fell on a day when my boss had arranged a sharing session with an external agency. And well, as you would expect, I have to forgo that particular outdoor session for this stupid sharing session!! I was greatly dismayed not to be able to go with Poodie and the rest and my disappointment was clearly registered on my face. But guess my boss was unmoved by it cuz he said I could always join the other group next week! What the heck! I was damn pissed and perhaps I showed my feelings a tad too clearly cuz my boss then asked me "Why? Got any problem with that?" to which I replied, "No but I preferred the "Appealing" Group." It's not like he left me with much of a choice...

Guess I must have been really pissed off this morning cuz everything that MD did or said just irritated me no end, dunno why I just can't help feeling that way. I really can't stand the way she tells me things sometimes, as in she doesn't go straight to the point but mumbles lots of rubbish before jumping into the main point. She does this so often that sometimes when I am really irritated, I just cut her off and asked her "What is it you want to tell me or want me to do?" I really can't stand her slowness, which is so obvious in everything she does. Another thing about her is that she is always so afraid of making decisions! Today, my boss asked her about the food we would be providing for the sharing session tmw cuz it was originally assigned to her. But as I was also arranging catering for something else, my boss asked me to arrange this together as well. However, it turned out that the catering company could not cater for the small number of people in the sharing session, so I had earlier discussed with MD and we both agreed that we could easily get the food from delifrance. So I really dun understand why she looked so lost and uncertain when my boss asked her and had to turn to ask me?! As if we didn't talk about it before, why can't she just tell my boss her views? I am not the overall decision maker anyway! So sometimes you see, it really pisses me off that she is such a "mouse"!

Anyway, just to update on the videographer I met up with the night before, think he is not too bad. A jolly and plump guy, who seems pretty easy going and approachable. Saw stome of his works, they seemed pretty ok to me. Guess I was attracted to his videography services only because he was willing to explore new ideas, willing to do something that is unconventional, out of the box and just different from the usual. But yet, everything is free play and entirely up to the couple. It could be about our love story, our house, our cars, something personal about us that will touch our friends and family when they see it, a movie of our own. I told the videographer to wait till my piggy is back cuz I would like piggy to have a look too.. & knowing piggy, I know he can come up with very creative and funny ideas!!

Another few weeks and my piggy would be back, really miss my piggy...miss his cuddly face, cute dimples and funny jokes....that's my dearest little piggy who never fails to "talk rubbish" & make me laugh..heehee..
