Stayed home today pretty much attempting to get some studying done. My Organizational Behaviour textbook, my riveting and oh-so-entertaining companion for the day, bids you good day too, we have spent many hours getting to know each other and from what I can deduce, OB theorists are long-winded and bohliao. They have theories on everything, divide stuff neatly into categories, then at the end say "Achelly ar, it all depends on the person and the situation". SWEAT.
I'm studying. REALLY. The M&M's flower is just uh, visual aid.
All this effort just to figure out how to better run the organization. Let me tell you how to maximize profits and satisfy customers lah. First of all, make sure you hire the right people. Don't just because your auntie's cousin's daughter's boyfriend's ex-girlfriend's sister then simply give job and think that you're well on your way to success. Or some infleuntial Datuk told you their no-good just-kicked-out-of-rich-and-snobby-private-school son is looking for work experience because "studying is just not for him" so you quickly say got job opening then later call some manager and say company is downsizing. Seriously that's like Malaysia's biggest problem. Discrimination here and there, preventing Chinese from getting into UM and preventing the people with real qualifications from getting jobs. Even here, at this Malaysian restaurant which happens to be the only place with decent nasi lemak around, there is this horrible, sour-faced, rude, unpleasant NOT NICE cashier who never EVER smiles and is NEVER EVER polite to you even though YOU are the one paying her salary. Like I just accidentally flushed her pet goldfish down the toilet or something. She just takes your money and then gives you this slight head movement which I SUPPOSE indicates I can run along to find my own table. Then later she comes and plonks your food on the table with this disgruntled look like why-must-I-be-serving-you like that...HELLO you are a waitress. When I was a waitress, I was nice to everyone (unless they pissed me off) even though I don't need the money or anything because it is just manners. Or maybe she thinks she is very pretty so she should be a model instead of a waitress and she is practicing her seductive come-hither high-class model look. Well missy i can tell you right now you're doing it ALL WRONG. You look more like you just swallowed a lemon and a cockroach jumped in your mouth at the same time.
And the worst part is she probably got hired not because she was good at her job (which she is obviously NOT) but because she is some uncle's cousin's sister's niece or something like that. BAH.
So I managed to study 3 chapters today (hey that's a lot! I swear!) lecture notes and textbook chapters all in a sprawled-out position on the bed. Lesson of the day: you CAN actually work on the bed, and tomorrow I am going to the library. *grin*
