The frequency has indeed dropped. Its not for lack of interest to write. I want to. But the tendency to think of the past is still there.
Why, one could ask, would i bother to put in so much effort to keep a friendship going, and regardless of how many times its broken, i keep going back trying hard to keep it alive, and then just turn around..and finally say am going off, and meaning it. Am one notorious to simply walk away from people for the simplest of reasons. Its after all the chat world. And yet, there are occasions i've done the exact opposite. Well this time, i've finally realised, am confronted with a stranger. Someone i know not. For so many months early this year i was in the dumps. Had been mentally worn out. Felt so bad, that i thought i had let down a friend in need. That i had walked away, when i shouldnt have. Upon reflection of late, i realise, my folly. In the final instance, thats always the right thing to do, to be fair to all parties. Its something not done impulsively. Had thought about it for days. Enough said. Enough said, i keep telling myself. Its been more than a month since i entered KL1, and i can safely say i dont miss it. I have not been tempted to enter and chat there. I still keep in touch with the few who still bother to message or email me.
Past few days were quite worrying. The little one was down with a fever for 3 days, despite medication and tests done. Thankfully she is well now. It was the first time she had ever got sick, i think.
Hurray..the EPL football yahoo fantasy site is up and running and we have a few days to name the teams. An added welcome to distract and torture the mind. But with the increased workload at office, and long working hours, its gonna be toughm, very tough.
Saturday was an interesting morning. Was introduced to the world of digital mapping. Its something we will be seriously considering adopting. Coming back to office after lunch was perhaps a wrong move. To see an envelope with my name on it. The most junior executive we have had tendered his resignation.
While it can be fairly stated that he has not been impressive, but after many months of training and giving the opportunity to learn, its frustratingly annoying to see such an impersonal act. So very polite when requesting for a job, and so bloody rude in resigning in that manner. Supposedly he has been offerred a higher salary by a competitor. (God save them from his mistakes). No mention of the one month notice. Good riddance. Come monday he will surely get an earfull from me. No, we wont be counter offering. No, none of that nonsense. But we're in a predicament. We need to advertise for staff surely. The quotes from the computer vendor has yet to arrive. So much to be done in the next few weeks. And so very short handed at office.
