Whirlwind of Fire

Monday, September 04, 2006

Today as I was walking out of the office with a co-worker, he pointed at two kitchen assistants ahead and said, "Those two are really nice people. Kind, innocent-like." I asked, "Are there not so innocent ones?" He said, "Well, yeah, there are those who play with workplace politics and such, but not those two." I was like, "Huh, how about that."

The nice, kind people at workplace. As long as that is not associated with, say, slow, or unskilled, it's all fine by me.

Ever since I started working for the office job, I've learned that it's very different not only working at an office, but an Asian-oriented workplace. Trust me, the bucks is very sheltered. Asian people don't necessarily put emphasis on being nice to their employees. When we have "coaching conversations", they have outbursts of yelling. Personally I don't think that's going to get any results, by yelling. My mother informed me otherwise.

Digression of the day.

I'm too tired to write anything. Wait, there is one more thing. I just wrote an email to customer service of PetroCanada. I wanted to recommend one of their employee at the Granville & No. 3 location. He is so nice and works so hard. I had to do it.

Which reminds of another thing. Today when I was inputting sales data individual stores faxed over to the office, I really wanted to extend my appreciation of clear writing to the good people at the Osaka location. They made my job so much easier. Wouldn't the world be a better place if we focused on the positive rather than the negative?

This entry is not witty at all. Though I had no wit to begin with, this still makes me very depressed, and tired. Must bid you adieu before I take a cord and strangle myself.
