Mad!

For these past 2 days, i've hated my lunch time. You see, my lunch time is MY lunch time, not other people's lunch time, and one advantage that i have during my lunch time is that i go out alone, and i can choose wherever to go for lunch. Now, the thing is this. Being the person who goes out of the company for lunch, and owns a car, is not necessarily brings any advantage.

My department's lunch time is divided into 3 hour slots. 12PM-1PM, 1PM-2PM and 2PM-3PM. Sometimes some people can't stand hunger so therefore they'll ask the people who goes out at lunch at 12PM slot to buy some kuihs. Then during my lunch time, they'll ask me to do so. Ok fine, i do it, because i too ask the person at 12PM lunch time slot to buy for me. But i no longer do that, and people still kept on asking me to buy kuih for them.

Now what makes me angry for the past 2 days is the new people. 1 guy recently joined on Monday. This guy looks kinda old, as in late 40's and he's in the International Department. Now, one first day, when i want to go out, one of my colleague with told him that i would go outside, and he can order anything, of course without my knowledge. So this guy ordered Teh Ais. When the time i came back from lunch, my left hand was holding 5 plastic bags of kuihs, and 2 plastic bag of drinks on the left hand. Then again it happen again, same guy same thing. In my mind, i was very upset, and thought how selfish this guys is! He just came in few days ago, and start treating me as a waiter. Pleaselah, my work there is not to serve you or anyone else, but to do my job which is to serve my customers!

I brought the drink, and his kuih, and the other girl's one and left it on top of the table, put the syiling there and left. Then i went back front and want to go to toilet, i pass by that guy, and he told thanks, i just gave him the "whatever" look and say "ok" and went on. This reminds me, about something 1 month back. When one of my colleague joined in, she had no transport to go back on the first day. Then someone went and told her about it, and then asked me later regarding this. Of course, i said yes, but wouldnt it be better that if you could ask me first, then let me think. The thing is, i dont know who she is, and you cant just ask simply a person to go to another person's car without knowing anything.

This world do really need serious respect on each other.

Me-lvin

P.S. Just in case if you're wondering, will tomorrow's lunch time i'll buy for them anything? I think the answer is no, because i'm going to go eat my lunch somewhere far away! Or i'll use my expertise, which is to use words that will make them understand. . .
