Feb 29, a once-in-4-years affair. I remember during NUS days, there was this gal that i knew whose birthday falls on Feb 29th. Haha, she should be only 7 this yr, if she's born in 1980 coz every 4 years then her bdays comes! The news reported that over 70 couples registered their marriage on Feb 29. Hmm, wonder why the ladies are so silly to allow that coz it'd meant that wedding anniversary dates are once in every 4 yrs!!! Save alot of $$ for the hubbies!
Ironically, the key lesson i learnt today was to be PROFESSIONAL at work. How insulting, after working for close to 6 yrs, i am told to be PROFESSIONAL. In case u think it's a negative comment, i didn't view it that way. Why? Well, coz someone told me that i bend my back for others too often & when i get "stabbed in the back", i feel resentful & upset. So the easiest way out is simply to be professional. If it can't be done, just go by the book. Don't put in extra effort to folks who don't appreciate or worse, give u a "treat" when your back turns. Sometimes we get into squabbles at work for the slightest incidents. Anal people push work around and eventually, when things go wrong, are the first to point fingers at others.
I suppose that's really something i have to learn. Just go by the book. Afterall, i already pocketed the bonus! Oh, for those who read the news, Stanchart achieved record profit numbers & the Consumer Bank (where moi hails from) grew the most! Oh well, all i can say is that the bonus we received didn't equate to the bank's earnings. Like what i told the ad sales folks. Profit is achieved when people work damn hard & save damn alot!!!
