I went back to the office on friday to have lunch with Wendy, and I must say it was good to be back. I was quite embarrassed to go up empty-handed so despite being poor (hahaha. after my relegation to a poor student la!), I went up with different varieties of chocolates.

Everyone stopped to talk to me, and I was quite caught out by the attention cuz apparently, the new temp staffs know my name. (wonder what my ex-colleagues have been gossiping about me..) I only met that gal once, and when I went into the office, I said, "I'm looking for Wendy". And she went, "Wendy. Deborah looking for you." I was like, "Hmmmm...I never introduced myself to you?"

I felt quite paisey because everyone stopped to chat with me including my manager. The temp staffs were just looking on at me, and they're probably wondering why my manager and the AGM will stop to talk to me. (I wanted to hide but cannot cuz they're just sitting at the counter. Hehe) They have 4 temp staffs now(what luxury. I did everything myself then! haha.) One of my senior exe even said that they're going to propose during management meeting to hire me back to work part-time! (!!!) And to make things even more embarrassing, Wendy said, "4 temp staffs cannot be compared to 1 you." -blush- But seriously, I was not that good la.

Was quite shocked to learn that Sandy was in depression because for the 9 months I was there, she was perfectly fine. She looked ok when I visited last month so it was quite shocking. Apparently it's work stress. But it's quite weird because she has been working there for 5 years! Still, it's quite scary. I didn't know you could get depression just like that!

The AGM, Mrs Tan stopped to talk to me and I was thrilled to see her. For the benefit of my new readers, Mrs Tan is my 偶像。I admire her alot so to be able to have a 5 minutes conversation with her was great. I always enjoy seeing her. She may be alittle rigid at times, but she is not one to shun from pressure, and she's always ready to hear others out should they disagree with what she says. Also, she never hesitates to say sorry if she's wrong and is humble enough to ask a temp staff for help when she had some problems using the PC. She's a wonderful woman and it's a pity I never got to work under her. But she brighens up my days whenever she walks pass my table and greets me Good Morning. Hee.

Hmm, both my neighbours are having BBQs and karaoke sessions at the same time. So coincident. What's the occasion today?
