Snatch thief

I witnessed this despicable act this morning at 8:10am on my way to work.

3 aunties were waiting for the bus opposite the Shell petrol station in Greenland near Gembira Parade. 2 guys on a bike stopped behind the bus stop without their knowledge. The pillion rider suddenly jumped from the bike and snatched one of the handbags from the back. The aunty whose handbag was snatched fell near the curb. She was lucky she didn't stumble to the main road. The other 2 aunties helped her back to her feet and the 3 of them were too shock to react. The snatch thief ran back to the bike and his accomplice rode off...

All this happened during rush hour and nobody can do anything about it. So everybody, tell your sisters, girlfriends, mothers, aunties and grannies to be extra careful. The bastards are prowling again.

Lame post

Time for some whoring... traffic whoring that is. Me thinks this blog needs some traffic coming this way. Considering the many interesting developments recently in the Malaysian news like the THES ranking, harassment of the 4 chinese women by the police and now the hot MMS video, let me take this wonderful opportunity to hitch onto the bandwagon to gather some traffic for me me me!!! Yea, I won't even bother to write this shit entry if business is bad for people like LKS, Jeff and Mack. Lol! Sardenly, their blogging business is booming so I guess I must not be left out... I want my slice of the pie too, you know. So come on, click me super duper Google Adsense here... help me make profit lah!

To resign or not to resign?

I was transferred out from department A to department B about 2 months ago. I have worked in department A since 2002 - about 4 years. Department A was newly set up when I joined. Like other jobs, there are ups and downs working in department A.

2 months ago, some dude from department B resigned and I was transferred to replace that dude. Management prerogative lah. Can't do anything even after I had rejected them 4 times. Now, everyone knows department B sucks so I decided to respond. Last week, I was offered a position with another company and subsequently I tendered my resignation end of last week.

Today, management requested me to withdraw my resignation and re-join department A. Should I follow their request or do I tell them to fwack off, I am leaving?

It's half past 3am now and I can't sleep thinking about this. Boss, if you are reading this by any chance, then you know I am seriously thinking about it. Kepala pusing!

Friendster

Bloody friendster!!! I been bugged by someone for sometime asking me to register friendster. You know, that sissy website where all guys and girls who wanna to get laid hang out? Anyway... I asked this someone to register friendster for me yesterday to get it over with. Okay, no big deal, just register me and then stop pestering me. Soon after furnishing my email address and what not, I began to get return notification messages on my email from friendster. Fcuk! When I double checked, it seemed friendster was being extremely friendly and sent out invites to all the people in my yahoo address book. Holy cow! Some of those emails include colleagues and bosses from work!!!

I am hungry

The headline in The Star today screams "Not hungry enough". My first thought was why people are still not hungry enough with all the DeepaRaya goodies around? Even if you are not hungry, would you resist all the mouthwatering snacks? No way!

Then when I got hold of the paper, ohhhh.... looks like graduates, particularly the locals ones are not aggresive enough to secure their first job.

Aiyah!!! KNN!!! Of coz, they can't find a job lah. How can these newly grads find themselves a job when people like me and my collegues haven't got any promotion after working for quite some time liau??? Very simple lah, no need all the statistics one. If we can't be promoted, then how can newly grads replace us, right or not ah? Think logic lah. Those stewpid bosses are already at the top of the corporate hierarchy, why would they wanna be bothered about who to promote anyway? After all, they all oso cari makan, makan gaji one. The companies they work in are not their business. They'll all retire in a year or two. Teok bo? Forget all those stats lah, all useless one, all those stats are lies, lies and damn lies only. Think about my theory la.

Another theory is this - in recent years especially since the 90s, many parents started sending their kids to menara gading overseas coz the local ones diddn't have enuf space to take in those kids. Now, after a few years, they come back and find it difficult to get jobs. So now the local grads have to oso compete with those grads from US lah, UK lah, Australia lah, Canada lah...

Lastly, another reason is nearer to home... in Penang - do you see any big investments from both local or foreign coming in? In the mid 70s and 80s, you see alot of big names like Intel lah, B Braun lah, Siemens lah, Acer lah, HP lah, Sony lah... during the former CM's time, coming in to build factories. What do you have today? Any big names? Okay, you say manufacturing in Penang has reached it's maturity. So what happenned to other fields like medical, bio-medic...etc? So basically the pool of grads has increased but the employment sector has remained stagnant. They can only take in a limited number of workers.

With no promotion for me and my peers, no wonder we are also hungry.

Mr Loh vs Mr Goh...

... or Fettes Park versus Chulia Street. Fettes Park Chicken or Chulia Street Chicken? Which is better?

I went for lunch at the late Mr Goh Thew Chik's fames chicken rice cafe in Chulia Street opposite the Fuji photoshop near love lane this afternoon. This is another fames chicken rice shop in Penang apart from the overly publicised Fatty Loh. Needless to say, in Penang, we have soooooo many other kinds of good hawker food like Char Koay Teow (Sisters vs Lorong Selamat), Curry Mee (Sg Pinang) and .... others.

So back to Mr Loh vs Mr Goh. Whose chicken rice do you prefer? Of cos it's all individual preference and taste. I just want to hear what's your preference.

Lau Fu Tze

I went for a hair cut this afternoon. Took the holiday opportunity to get my hair in shape after 3 months since I last visit a barber hairstylist. No, I didn't wanna shave my head botak like this guy. No, I didn't have enough money for Toni & Guy. My hairstylist is one of those aunties with their own small time business cutting and perming hair for other aunties. You know, those kind of establishments that probably exist in most neighbourhoods. Anyway... while getting my hair cut, I noticed 2 Lau Fu Tze comic books on the rack. This Lau Fu Tze comic book character brought back some memories for me.

Ever since I was a kid, the only place I could get my hair cut was at the Indian barber shop a few blocks behind my house. The only one thing I looked forward to was the piles of Lau Fu Tze comics available in the barber shop. I am talking about the time when I was like 8 or 9 lah. The charaters in Lau Fu Tze never ceased to amaze me.

And if you don't know what I am babbling about then here's a page which I quietly curi koyak borrowed from my auntie hairstylist so that ya all can have a hint of what I am ranting.



On a side note, no I am no "sua koo", I don't take pics of myself when I had my hair cut... unless when I wanna go bald.
