Recently I landed myself a job at one of the biggest telecommunications company over here. I am currently going thru a month training schedule...and let me say, it is extremely hard!
There is so much of data and process to remember, and I kid you not, the amount is really out of this world, and we have only 30 days to remember before we are expected to handle the customers. It does not help that any mistake is unacceptable and may/will lead to an immediate dismissal so it means walking a really thin tight rope. it explains as well, why the turn over is extremely big and abit unreasonable for a company this size.
But hey, work is work. and as much as I am overwhelmed with the amount of work, the pay is quite good, so I am working hard to keep myself in line and in work!

20 Lines NOT to use when a cop pulls you over!
The top 20 things not to say to a cop when he pulls you over.
20. I can't reach my license unless you hold my beer.
19. Sorry officer, I didn't realize my radar detector wasn't plugged in.
18. Aren't you the guy from the village people?
17. Hey, you must have been doing 125 to keep up with me, good job.
16. I thought you had to be in relatively good physical shape to be a police officer.
15. I was going to be a cop, but I decided to finish high school instead.
14. Bad cop. No donut.
13. You're not going to check the trunk, are you?
12. Gee, that gut sure doesn't inspire confidence.
11. Didn't I see you get your butt kicked on cops?
10. Is it true that people become cops because they are too dumb to work at McDonalds?
9. I pay your salary!
8. So uh, you on the take or what?
7. Gee officer, that's terrific. The last officer only gave me a warning.
6. Do you know why you pulled me over? Okay, just so one of us does.
5. I was trying to keep up with traffic. Yes, I know there is no other cars around, that's how far they are ahead of me.
4. What do you mean have I been drinking? You are the trained specialist.
3. Well, when I reached down to pick up my bag of crack, my gun fell off of my lap and got lodged between the brake and the gas pedal, forcing me to speed out of control.
2. Hey, is that a 9mm? That's nothing compared to this 44 magnum.

The stupid people in banks today.
why are there morons working in banks?! I didnt farking agree to invest in any scheme and yet my money was deducted. And to make me even more pissed, having a dumb fark explaining to me, that the deduction was done because it's the end of the month. Since when is the 12th of any month, the END of the month?!
When I was told bout this scheme, the lady said "I'll call you sometime this or next week to confirm if you are interested in joining" and despite no calls, the damn bank deducted my money.
Reason: End of the month. What fucking month ends on the 12th? Tell me someone please.
I'm heading to the main branch here is Subang. Lets see what they have to say then.

Choices, Choices, Choices
I am thinking of getting of a desktop pc to replace my old worn out laptop which is now 5 years old, and have been reformatted at least 4 times, been to the doctors twice, and has a dead battery.
I have been looking around and thus far, it seems that DELL is coming up much higher than the rest. I can customize the desktop, while the rest wont allow me to. Plus DELL ships it to me, so I do not have to go anywhere to find it.
And another thing, DELL's website is really up to date, while the rest websites are pretty backwards, and some, havent been updated for quite awhile!
I'm heading down to either DELL or HP now...well, I still have to decide....

Road Tax Part ONE
My car's roadtax expired on the 5th of April this year. So, I went to the bank where my grant is being kept to get it, in order to get my roadtax renewed. There the nice little lady tells me that I do not need it, the bank can arrange to get the roadtax done for a small extra charge. I thought to myself, "sound good" but let me check on the extra charges. There is a tendency for small charges to become big charges, so it is always better to check it out first.
The extra charges as explained, is $10 for the rider who does the roadtax renewal, and another $10 for the courier service to send the roadtax to the bank where I can pick it up. Estimate time of renewal 2 days max. So I paid the fees and waited. Oh yeah, another thing, I had to call the bank in 2 days time to check if the roadtax has arrived. Thats the one thing I thought was really a let down. The bank should be the one calling the owners to tell them the roadtax has arrived instead of us playing roulette by calling everynow and then to check if the roadtax arrived. Oh well, it still is a very convenient service.
So anyways, put in the renewal request on Friday Morning, and was told it will be ready by Tuesday.
It is now Friday....and guess what, my roadtax is still not ready!!
Why?
Lets see...when I got the car, I bought a ONE year insurance policy for the car, but my salesman got a 6 MONTH roadtax only. So my roadtax expired in April, and while my insurance expires in September. So by since my roadtax expires in April, it means that I only have a balance of 5 months with my insurance, so I cant get the roadtax renewed as I needed a minimum of 6 MONTHS.

Joy Sellers
I am sure you all have heard of joy bidders/buyers before, but have anyone else experienced a joy seller? I can only assume it's still happens on a smaller scale compared to the joy buyers, but it does happen.
What is a joy seller you might be asking? Well that a moron who promises to sell to you, only to later on, change his/her mind and not sell to you. There are reasons as to why this happens, some are pranks, some get better offers and some are generally asses.Let me tell you bout my experience with one.
I wanted (still want) to buy the updated version Clarion car player made for the Waja which can play MP3s, as mine had the previous model which was a normal player. The reason I wanted a Clarion version was that the controls on the steering wheel will only work on this particular Clarion model.
So I posted an ad asking anyone who wanted one, to let me know plus the price. I get a reply from this moron, Ben a few days later, and AGREE to pay $250 for the player. The only catch was I had to drive for 3 hours to his place and get it, which I was fine with. So I drive up, and waited at the agreed spot.
Then, the moron, does not answer his phone, sms and in the end swtiched his mobile off. So I had just wasted alot of petrol, 3 hours...make that 6 hours, toll fares both ways and do not forget the wear and tear of driving for 6 hours.
Next day, the moron texted me, saying he got a better offer, so he sold it to his friend. WTF, could you not have told me that before?! I didnt have to waste my time and money for nothing!!
Argh, joy sellers. This guy had no respect for his own promises and me. I wasted my time and money which I will not make back, and I did not even get an apology. If ever, I meet this guy or find him selling anything, he is blacklisted from my book, and I'll email the farking website to inform them of my experience with him!

Tenacious D - Tribute Lyrics
This is one of the songs I loved during my working days with the government. Its a classic...unlike any other songs.
Tenacious D: Tribute
This is the greatest and best song in the world. . . tribute.
Long time ago me and my brother Kyle here,...
we was hitchhikin' down a long and lonesome road.
All of a sudden,
there shined a shiny demon...
in the middle...
of the road.
And he said:
"Play the best song in the world,
or I'll eat your souls."
Well me and Kyle,... we looked at each other,
and we each said...
"Okay."
And we played the first thing that came to our heads,
Just so happened to be,
The Best Song in the World,
it was The Best Song in the World.
Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
One and one make two,
two and one make three,
It was destiny.
Once every hundred-thousand years or so,
When the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
and the grass doth grow oooh
Needless to say,
the beast was stunned.
Whip-crack went his whippet tail,
And the beast was done.
He asked us:
"BE you angels?"
And we said,
"Nay.
We are but men
Rock!!
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahn,
Ohhh, whoah, ah-whoah-oh!
This is not The Greatest Song in the World, No
This is just a tribute.
Couldn't remember The Greatest Song in the World, No.
No!
This is a tribute, oh,
To The Greatest Song in the World,
All right!
It was The Greatest Song in the World,
All right!
And it was the best mother fuckin' song,
The Greatest Song in the world!
Allllllright!
'Ti Tuga digga tu Gi Friba fligugibu Uh Fligugigbu Uh Di Ei Friba Du Gi Fligu fligugigugi Flilibili Ah
(Bow) (Bow) (Bow) (Ooh) (Bow) (Bi)
Fligu wene mamamana Sacrebleu!
(Mene) (LUCIFER)!
(guitar solo)
And the peculiar thing is this my friends:
the song we sang on that fateful night it didn't actually sound
anything like this song!
This is just a tribute!
You gotta believe it!
And I wish you were there!
Just a matter of opinion.
Ah, fuck!
Good God, God lovin' ,
So surprised to find you can't stop me,now.
I'm on fire
O hallelujah I'm found! Rich motherfucker compadre
(Demonic)aaaaah!
All right!
All right!
