8 to 5, maybe.

A directive have been passed down from the higher ones for us to observe the OFFICIAL working hours of the client which begins at 8 and supposingly ends at 5 but of course, in this industry (referring to the industry I am working in that is), you hardly see an END to work unless you choose to end it, one way or another, much like loans and debts.

There goes miss flexibility and say hello to mr strict rules.


Truth to be told, I have just gotten used to starting at 8.30 in the morning recently and now, I have to go through reconfiguring my biological settings forcefully once more. Having such difficulty getting up in the morning everyday, I felt that I'm really getting too old for all this lah.

Speaking of lah, I have a few counterparts from India who have been working for quite sometime in KL, hence some assimilation in spoken language. But the thing is, their LAH, LOH, LEH and such comes only after a pause from the final word, like, "I think so *pause* lah". While there's actually nothing wrong with that, it just felt funny and awkward at the same time.

Anyway, back to what I was saying, sigh, I have to wake up so bloody early now that it feels like school all over again.


BTW, its the month of the Hungry Ghost Festival which coincidentally, started with the first day of August and the truth is, in accordance to the old folks, this supposed to be a rainy season. But so far, the weather has been nothing close to even a light drizzles, most of the time, its hot and dry with occasional cloudy skies every now and then, no rain.

For me, its as the saying goes, too hot too handle.
