Next Chapter
Finally....
After so long, im back again, walking on the grounds of MMU. But this did not happen without going thru shit as work as usual.
Well, for one, before i came in, i tendered in my 13 days notice period resignation letter. And right at 4.45pm, my convo leave was rejected apparently for one stupid reason i don't even have the mood to write about. So i applied again at 5 pm and fled home at 8.30 pm without bothering to see if it was approved or not,but who gives a damn? I'm not going to sacrifice my convo memory for crap like that.
The worst was my boss knew i was on holiday the next day, and asked me if i could come to work a few hours before i board the bus..that really ticked me off like hell, for my bus was at 10am, and it takes me 2 hrs, to and fro my company and the bus station, so what u want me to do, wake up at 5 am and go to work first? on my annual leave day?
Some companys perhaps never read the labour law. Probably before i get to my next job, i would have to read through the labour law and fight back everytime something goes out of the written rules, but that would make me the first to go in case there were any downsizing..but who cares...
Well, just in case anyone is wondering, as written in the previous post, well i resigned to do a 1 month course in back in MMU which starts on Aug 15 and ends on Sept 19, from 8 am to 5 pm so i probably wont be able to blog that very often. Initially i applied for unpaid leave/study leave which was rejected on the grounds that the course is irrelevant to my company. Any course would be irrelevant to my company unless the software to be used is supposed to be free, like how they are currently changing from COBOL to JAVA as java is free.
The managers were not happy and i had a tough time trying to make them let me take the study leave but it didnt work so i just told them i'm leaving, by hook or by crook.
I knew they were not happy, and i am going to be screwed big time from aug 9 until aug 13. I feel bad though, for leaving them in such a state but i only got to know i was accepted for the course at the last minute so i could not give a 1 month notice. The system would be screwed for a while for my abrupt leave, as no one else was handling my part, the flow, the functions, no doucumentations but i am left with no choice. I have had enough of that job. I don't see a future in it. User is always right, like they are the kings and we are the beggars. They taught us Software Development Life Cycle at University, but i beleive it's the managers who really truly need to go for this courses first. And they also need to understand that the lower level people, ie the programmers are humans, not robots who can work 24 hours a day. Software management is out, people management is out, i am actually wondering how i managed to withstand this crap for such a long time.
As for my resignation letter, just in case u guys were wondering how to write one, hey, there's help from the net. I just copied from a website, and modified it. apparently the person who wrote the letter wanted to open his own vineyard(how i wish i could do that), so i just deleted the vineyard and inserted my own reason, he he!
Have been rounding around in Alamanda yesterday, met Vicky, Pragash, Kashie so far. Pragash picked me up from pudu and meeting him just started with a fight and ended with a fight, but that is usual. we never have nice things to say to each other, he he.Notice how friendships which is 'kutuking' based tends to last longer? The world's a funny place.
Currently with Kameeni the great in the lab, he he =) Also finally managed to see my boyfriend. =)Would be meeting Nava later and the whole 22 member gang tomorrow. Can't wait, can't wait.
Had breakfast in FCM cafe, courtesy of Ms Kameeni. Ah, the thick yummy mamak coffee and the roti canai and the usual cold, dunno-when-it-was-made curry. My stomach feels funny now, but this is the start for the 1 month campus food stint, ha ha..memories memories..
I'm actually grinning at the screen while writing this.
But i'm missing my family suddenly, especially my youngest brother. But 1 month would end soon, i'm sure it would. and i do hope i would pass the exam.
So friends, wish me luck as i embark on this new chapter in my life, which i hope would be for the better. I have had enough shit all these while, at my work place. Final screwing session would be from aug 9 to aug 13. then i would be a free bird, jobless...
Now let me bask in the luxury of thinking how wonderful it would be to be jobless for one month, ahhh....ahhhh...ahhh....(sara aka Kamal Hassan style)
