27 Dec [Decisions II]

You’d think that guys are generally decisive.

What happened today was that Diann introduced this IT-related job to me. Basically, it sounds pretty standard- a 5-day work week, 9am to 6pm, minimum commitment of a few months . What I really like about this job is that you get to wear casual for work, and it’s just 30minutes away from my place, so it’s really convenient. The pay is $5.50 an hour, which is slightly below standard market rates. Also, I’m pretty apprehensive about committing myself to a regular job for a couple of months. What if I don’t like the job? What if I can’t get along with the people? What if I want to hang out with friends but can’t because I have got a job?

So this job has got its perks and downfall.

You know how some Yahoo! articles tell you about bosses who Google potential employees to dredge up any possible secrets they may have conveniently left out during the interview? Yeah, maybe one day he will find this little entry hiding at the bottom of the virtual pile of search results. I think companies should really have an entire department devoted to this whole CIS shenanigan, like a P.I. department. Like, BOOM. All your secrets will be uncovered by in this department: You have mistresses all over the South Pacific countries, your two gay dads, your son is fucking the boss’s daughter, your villa in North Pole.

Oh, the horror!

Then again, I would THRIVE in that department with my acute CIS skills.

Have I told you guys how much I love Disney? And by Disney,I really mean Mickey Mouse, Little Mermaid and the other characters in the bandwagon. I know I’m too old for that and all, but they are really good. They used to, and still do, lift moods with their chirpy songs. Many credits to Gabe Bondoc and AJ Rafael on YouTube for their amazing covers.

Hakuna Matata folks!

26 February [Decisions]

I love September.

I love February too.

February, in all practically, is one of the best months simply because it’s the shortest. See, having a short month is amazing. You get the same full month worth of pay, say $3,000, even though its essentially only 28, or 29, days in February. It’s free money for you right there. Similarly, I get the same amount of allowance as the other months even though there are fewer days this month.

I know what you are thinking. There are months with 31 days, and so the collective amount of extra day (actually 8 in total) we work for each of these months essentially outweighs the benefits of February.

You know, you’re looking at all of this all wrong. Screw the ‘half empty’ness.

In my mind, the default number of days a month is 31, so I stand to gain in February and in other months with 30 days. I’m never losing out this way

All the Gregorian thingamabobs aside, I am officially done with all academic aspects of school! *Party poppers!*Actually I have been done with schoolwork since 2 weeks ago, but Microsoft Sales *cue doom music*  demands that we finish up our due diligence. So it has been two weeks of collection and a hundred of people still refuse to shimmy down and collect the stuff they have paid for.

Be that way.

I really need to get a job. Scratch that. I need funding for all my financial escapades. I’m probably too picky, because there doesn’t seem to a job on the listing which catches my attention. Well, except for maybe ”Dress Up Like an Angel, Distribute Breakfast Packs & Earn $20 an hour!!! @ Tampines“

Hell yeah that catches my attention, but I’m not going to apply for this. Not by a long shot.

Good money, dubious job description, bad location. Steven Tyler and Randy says its out.

Seeya folks!
