It finally seems to be changing!! Slowly, slowly but so far, I have been abit more luckier than usual.
After a few months of searching for a job, I finally managed to obtain one, with a good telecommunication company that is on the up. The rules and job are hard, but the pay is good.
I just hope my luck holds on, and get my ahead with my job.

The stupid people in banks today 2.
Its been 13 days since the damn bank direct debited money out of my account for an investment program that I did not agree it. So went all the way back to bank, and asked them to refund it..only to have to wait for 2 days cause the officer in charge was out and she didnt even call me back.
So finally after the 2 days, i went to the bank personally, and the lady was not in, so i waited for half an hour. Finally met her, and would you believe it? I was forced to filled out alot of forms to get my money, which the bank took without my consent or forms!! So the bank takes my money just like that, but in order to refund it to me, I must fill in dozens of forms?! Doesnt sound fair does it?
Anyways, after all that, my money was supposed to be banked in...but guess what, it still is not. And now that I am working normal office hours, where am I gonna find the time to head over to the bank and get it back?
I Would be so damn happy if the banks were efficient in all ways, especially when they make a mistake cause all i am notice from my experience is that, when they screw up, they will not admit it until you notice, and they will give you their 5 cents worth of apology which does not mean much, and take so much time to refund your money they took!!!
ahhh...banks. cant live with them, cant live without them.

Work Work Work And More Work
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.
1. Hey, can you give me another one of those full cavity searches?

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.
