We Really Look Alike Meh?
After dragging the hubby along to attend my boss's wedding last Sat, I have been receiving comments from colleagues, both local and overseas, that the hubby and I look so alike that they thought he is my BLATHER. Duh..do you hold hands and attend a wedding with your BLATHER? These people ah, damn cock. Let's juz say we both have the 夫妻相 lah.
Am looking forward to the long weekend ahead. The weather is so damn cool this morning, how I wish I could laze and surf TV channels in bed...*yawn* Daniel's mama is preparing a nasi lemak spread for us this Sat, the 2 grooms-to-be will also be announcing their BIG wedding plans to the whole gin gang too. Dreads. Angbaos and wedding dinners, don't you juz hate it? Anyway, Renne has the impromptu urge to organise a BBQ session at his condo tmr. TMR? Isn't it too late to book the BBQ pit now? Well, let's juz see...that slacker guy is all talk and no actions most of the time.
After the India events, the next project will be either the Dubai roadshow or the June's Disty Conference....in PHUKET! This week was busy attending the 1st Quarter Sales Review and other meetings, so work has kinda slowed down a little. Giving myself a short rest before pumping up my energy for the fresh week. The boss had a good and long talk with me yesterday. Yes, she told me to speak to our slacking exec, it's either she buck up or off she goes. She also shared that the other exec was initially quite disappointed on me coming on board, cos' she was expecting a promotion after being the "right-hand man" of the boss since 3 yrs ago. She doesn't have to worry, cos' she has been promised a promotion next Jan, I'm juz worried about the other gal who has been oblivious in her own world and not doing anything to improve her quality of work. Anyway, the boss also stressed that she is not afraid that I will take over her position, she can always do something else in the company. I'm like, WTF? The thought has not even crossed my mind! But she could say this out of the following:
1. She's insecure
2. She thinks I'm capable, she's relieved that I can resume her position and she wanna try new challenges in the company
3. She's jealous and I've bruised her ego by doing a good job in India
4. She juz thinks I'm capable and encourages me to strive harder
Whatever lah. I also don't wish to read too much in between the lines. I juz do what I'm supposed to do and do my best.
The hubby was happy that my events went well in India. But cautioned me that it is good to have those good comments come pouring in now, it is great that I'm recognised for my efforts put in, but whatever it is, I MUST definitely prepare myself for a defeat if it comes by. Cos' most of the successful people are so used to winning and performing that if something's amissed and failed, they juz slump down and can't take the defeat attack. Words of wisdom from the hubby, I shall log it in my tiny brain up there =)
