This week has been ok for me. Let’s recap.
Monday
Nothing much. Back to work as usual. I was worried as I have one JKT shipment that supplier from US screwed up. Instead of forwarding to JKT direct, they forwarded it to Singapore. And it’s via Air. So you imagine how much it will cost. And an old shipment resurfaces as Tony and I overlooked it. Tony was supposed to order and I was supposed to coordinate. But the both of us forgot so we have to air freight 2 pallets from Hong Kong to Korea. Damn! It cost almost 3K. So I told Peter and Peter told me to talk to Willie on this to see if their end could absorb. After mush worrying at work, I went home with a pretty much pissed feeling. What so you expect? Everything is not working well at work. Got home, changed and straight went to bed till the next morning.
Tuesday
Went to work worrying about the KOR. I kept praying to Allah to help me through this ordeal. Peter told me to talk to Willie, which I have not done on Monday cos I was still scare. So I ignore the instruction again. For lunch we went to Bedok South Market and I had Roti Prata. By then, I was feeling much better but still scare about work. The rest of the time at work was all ok. I came back home, anticipating the arrival of Kak Faez and Myn for my facial. I was supposed to go running with Aric but he was still recovering from flu so it was cancelled. Moreover, it was drizzling. So I wouldn’t want to be responsible for if Aric fainted or something. I was disappointed but cheered myself up with the facial session. It was Myn’s first time and she’ ok. Still have a lot to learn. Kak Faez did my mom’s. And my mom loved it. Thanks Kak Faez and Myn for the relaxing session. Oh yeah, my E-spring came. Kak Feaz’s hubby, Abg Naz came to fix it and all was well. Now we can drink straight from the tap. E-Spring is actually a water filter. It filters up to 99% of bacteria and chlorine in you tap water. And when they showed me the difference between normal water and E-spring water, it was tremendous. With E-Spring, it is like drinking water that you have already boiled. Usually we Malays always boil water, to get rid of the chlorine and bacteria that is running through the pipes when water is being pump into out water system. Below is the pic. Just to show you guys. It is also portable so you can bring it along anywhere you travel. And so, they went home around 11 plus and I went straight to bed.
For your familyWednesday
Feeling more confident, I emailed Willie on the KOR shipment. Alhamdullilah, he said charges to be billed to AP. I told Peter the good news. And Peter asked what I did to him. Haha. Willie and I have always been on the best of terms. So I was considered lucky that he is ok about the charges. And so, lunch; we went to Bedok South Market again. I have Prata again. Haha..It’s just nice. Work was ok the whole day. I was waiting for Korea and Indonesia to drop the order. Korea did but Indonesia took the whole day to drop their order. Korea’s order confirmation only came in the evening, so I did it on Thursday. We had a meeting after lunch and SBUX HKG is visiting next Friday. So naturally, all was given the instruction to clean up the desk, dress properly and all. I bet Kaori and Suken will be dressing to impress Desmond. Desmond is one of our logistic partners in SBUX AP. And he’s hot. Haha…I think a lot of people think so. So good lick to these two. We end the meeting feeling very happy though we need to cut down on our cases.
Yesterday
Came to work as normal. Looked into my inbox and Indonesia has dropped the order. Like finally!!! So I emailed Tony to confirm ASAP. Few minutes later, Tony emailed and I realized that there was no attachment. Wah…Heart pain!! So the whole morning I kept shooting emails to Robert, my Indonesia customer, to attach the O/C. But he did not reply. Wah…More heart Pain!!! So after lunch I called. And it turns out; Robert was out of town for a meeting and will only be back around 1600. Damn! I definitely have to do overtime if he reverts late. And he did revert late. By the time Tony confirmed, it was 1824. And I have to meet my family at Expo by 1930. So I had to rust like a mad woman. I finished everything and realized it was already 1945. So last minute of transferring song and then I packed and ready to leave. BUT…it was raining. Heavily. So I went back and took an umbrella. I waited until it subsided and walked to Expo. By the time I reached, it was already 2020. I went into Hall 6 and called Malin while walking. When I spoke to Malin, I realized that Malin’s place was much noisier that the place that I am in. Asked her which Hall is it and she said it is near the food court. THEN, I realized that I walked into the wrong Hall!!!! It is actually in Hall 5 and not 6!!! Haha.. Lucky no one notice that. So I walked in the CORRECT Hall and saw them sitting down talking to Zita K about the wedding packages. I was only half listening the whole way, cos I was shivering as my shoe was soaked.
By the time we get back home, it was almost 2200. Very very tired. So changed and went straight to bed.
Today
While people are busy working, I am busy blogging. Hehe..Will update soon…
