Cooler Than Usual

This is talking about the average temperature today of course.  I think it's mostly due to the fact that the part of the city I work in seemed to have been surrounded by cloud cover, which made it especially noticeable in the beginning since this meant that the sun wasn't in our eyes for the …

Mundane Midweek

Nothing much to share about my day. Honestly it was as mellow a midweek shift as one could get, and the only thing of note that occurred today was how I made good on my promise to go to gym.  Well, that and the fact that I also paid off the combination phone and internet …

Slight Change In Practice

So aside from one little detail, today's shift at work was more or less what you'd expect for a Monday shift.  As for the detail itself, apparently three of us (those who were cross-trained anyway) were to be pulled off the workfloor at the tail end of the shift for a bit of retraining, since …

As Relaxed As You’d Expect

It's Monday once again, which meant it was once again the slowest work day of the week for yours truly.  Nothing much to say about the shift itself, but I was finally able to deposit the salary I withdrew this Saturday safely into my savings account.  Thing is, I'm pretty sure that it's not going …

Back Where We Started, Sort Of

Today was the first day of our transfer to our new location at the ninth floor.  Ironically, this was where were started at, back when the account just began and when I started working for the company.  How time flies, doesn't it? Anyway, the shift was as you'd expect of a Sunday shift.  Thankfully everyone …

Weekend Obligations

So it turned out that I was required to go to school earlier.  Kind of embarrassing how I only found out about the orientation for the comprehensive exam today through checking my e-mail.  Suffice to say it cut short my World of Tanks session this morning, as I had to prepare myself for the meeting …

When One Can Only Say “Whoops”

Although one could consider this one of my usual weekends, there were a few things that didn't exactly turn out as I'd liked.  For example, it's supposed to be my payday... except when I went to the ATM earlier there wasn't any money yet in my account.  At first I figured it was because I …

Monetary Consternations

My shift at work today was very mundane, and nothing really noteworthy happened personally (though I was reprimanded for letting my cellphone ring while I was on the workfloor, since I forgot to put it on silent). Anyway, it's payday again tomorrow... However it looks like my salary'll suffer reductions before it even reaches my …

Midweek Mumbles

What a way to start my day.  Although I woke up early, and actually got to the Taft MRT station with a whole lot of time to spare, I still ended up late for work.  Why?  Because first the train took its sweet time in leaving, then actually stopped for several minutes in between Taft …

Relocations, Re-Allocations

Despite my hopes last night, today's shift at the office turned out to be just the same as any other Tuesday, which is to say the call queue was packed, with odd spikes continuing well into noontime.  You'd think that it wasn't a holiday in the US, but I suppose it's just another excuse for …
