What a sucky sucky day!

Superexcited played up today. He complained to Lao er and my manager saying that he had to turn down a demo to a potential client because we haven't got the demo site ready. I honestly don't know the way he complained, but that made Lao er and water tap turned panicky and cranky. And when they superexcited puts so much pressure on them, they turn... Simply annoying!

Superexcited said that IT is not proactive enough. We need to be chased, if not then we don't give them updates. For example on the page he asked little missy to work on. He said he hasn't heard anything from him, but the truth is, little missy had shown him last Friday but superexcited didn't like it, so little missy needs to rework it. Today is Tuesday. He complained this morning.

Second one which makes him really really angry was the fact that he had to turn down the demo request. He said it's been weeks and IT hasn't finished it. When Lao-er told us about it, Barbie girl said that we've only discussed it on Friday and we've just got the mock up yesterday morning. Lao er, exactly his wordings, "I don't care about any excuses, but this is a hundred thousand potential client, so it needs to be done. And when the director wants something done, you do it!". Woah woah.. what the....

The thing is, the directors knew we're gonna be asked for demo this week. And all along, superexcited has been checking the progress. Barbie girl has been working with him all these time and been given grief as his requirements keep changing all the time! Superexcited knows the progress, so why suddenly gets aggravated?? You know everything and had reviewed it last Friday! He reminds me of the boss in My Stupid Boss. Amnesia akut!

And then water tap. Because of all these proactive stuffs, he got me to fwd the notification emails that get sent when I update a task to the people within the campaign. But, the words he said to me was, "for the next 3 weeks, everytime you update a task, fwd that email to everyone in the campaign. Because people don't read those notification emails". Hearing that, what I thought was, those notifications emails get sent to notify you any updates. It's everyone's jobs to read it, why don't you fix the people who don't do it instead of spoonfeeding it to their mouth??? But I only said yes.

Then, when I updated the task, I forwarded the email to everyone within the task. Then came all these questions, Broken water tap: "Why did you send it to Slitherin? Why did you send it to Crown Prince? Why did you send to so many people??".

Purple Lady: "??? You said to send it to everyone within the project??! Slitherin is in the notification list, crown prince is in the project, all those people are in the notification list!".

Broken Water Tap: "you don't understand what I mean! Don't send to everyone! Just send to people who need to know!"

Purple Lady: (saying to myself how do I know what u mean? You only said send to everyone in the campaign!!) Well they are all in the project, shouldn't they all need to know?? You said they don't read those notifications.

Broken water tap: not everyone doesn't read those. Only me, creamer, Lao er, prick and poker face!

Purple Lady: how do I know who doesn't read those emails????

Broken water tap: I told you I didn't read those emails!

Purple Lady: yeah but how do I know who else doesn't???

Leaking water tap: me, prick, Lao er get so many emails so we don't check them. You have to think!

Purple Lady: ok, so I just send it to those 5?

Rusty broken water tap: "Don't take it per condition like that, every case is different! Send only if they are in the campaign!"

Purple Lady: YEAHHH I mean if any of those 5 are in the project!!! (duh?? You said not to take it as condition like that, while u didn't specify exactly what you want. Now when I said those 5, but with pre conditions they are in the project, you yell at me because I didnt specify!! JERKKKKKKK *throwing a big rock at him*)

Damn water tap: "I'll send the emails next time, you don't understand"

Purple Lady: (I'm gonna swallow you whole alive) !?@%#&+#++@??!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!

Get the idea??? Those 2 are ughhhhhhh when superexcited pressures them. Can't believe Lao-er said "i don't care about excuses"! Barbie girl didn't even give excuses, he was just stating facts! And damn water tapppppppppp this is the second time he turns annoying like this. And after that in the arvo he acts like nothing happened! I still wanna eat youuuuuuuuu -_-!!!!!!

How 2016 is So Unpredictable, So Far.

What 2016 has so far taught me is how quick things could happen. 1 minute everything is fine, next minute my colleague has just resigned. 1 minute life is good, the next minute that damn email telling us to sign that contract arrives in our mailbox and causing headaches to all of us. One night I didn't have job application sent, the next day I've got an interview scheduled. You really never know what could happen.

The other day I booked my tickets for the next holiday. The dates overlap with tap water's holiday, but I have lodged this holiday from long ago so I shouldn't be the one to freak out. But I did. I was so worried of what ifs and I thought I would just push the dates a week earlier just to save me headache and nervous breakdowns.

He was surprised. He said I didn't have to, but it would be great if I could. So he doesn't have to leave his job. Remember this point. So he doesn't have to leave his job to have holiday. I have paid, but the tickets haven't been issued, so I told the agent to hold the booking, called everyone who's going and asked if the could change and then contacted the travel agent. Took me 2 hours at work to sort all this out. And you know what, even my mobile phone credit ran out in the middle of a phone call dammittt! I had to call up again and repeat everything again. Finally it's sorted out.

But then after that, little missy said to me, "Ni wan dan le!". Turned out that he and his wife wanted to go to Europe in that month too! By me changing my dates, the dates became overlap with his dates! Oh God, so much drama. His wife insisted on going on the planned dates because she wanted to have her birthday overseas! Little missy was so pissed off and went on seek looking for jobs -_- I did tell you before, our IT dept has become so small that it is impossible for 2 people to take leave at the same time.

I tried to fix an issue and it caused even worse problem. That day I thought little missy was mad at me, but luckily it turned out that he was mad at his wife for being stubborn.

The next day he came happily again. They moved the dates a week early too. However he said to me, if he can't take 3 weeks off, he will find another job. He also asked me if I was thinking to find new job? He said he wants to try. I'm not sure if that's only if he can't take holiday or not.

But now, can you see the pattern? Honestly I thought the same thing too when my leave overlapped with water tap. I thought if I couldn't take it, I'd just leave my job. Water tap did too. And now little missy too. I didn't tell him about my plan at all, but he has same idea as me and water tap. Nobody is attached to this company and doesn't mind if he/she has to quit. It's so fragile, don't you think?

Anyway that night I fell asleep by 10:30. Too much stress on that day, my energy was completely drained -_- wasn't a good sleep though, waking up during the night and woke up at 5:30 in the morning.

But at least, little missy won't leave the company because of me. So hard pleasing everyone eh? Tried to make things better for me and water tap, but ended up making it hard for little missy -.- but yeah little missy hasn't even lodged the annual leave yet, how would I know??!! Water tap told me not to feel bad as it wasn't my fault, but I still felt bad. If there is medicine I can take to make me a little bit more ignorant, please let me know. I need plenty of that!

Not my fault, but why do I feel bad??

Sometimes I wished I don't get to feel bad easily. People who are ignorant are really blessed.

I've booked our tickets for our next holiday. But after I booked it, I remember that my friend did say to let her know if we're going, so I told her. Once I told her, she said she wants to go, but apparently she might not be able to take leave on the dates we've already decided. Now, I feel bad because I can't change the dates.

Last week was the same too. Water tap booked his holiday without checking if someone else already booked annual leave, and it clashes with me! He asked if I could change the date, which I can't, as my sisters can only go on those days. He said no worries, he should have checked anyway, but I still felt really bad.

Back to the friend who wants to join us for holiday. She can join the Hong Kong part, which is 5 days in total flying in and out. Only around 3.5 days full time free though. I also feel sorry coz I feel it's not enough time for her for holiday. I've suggested that she stays longer or come ahead of us so she has more time to enjoy, but she doesn't want to be alone :l

This all reminds me of what I said to Robin Hood last week. She felt bad that her desk was moved, her manager apologized to her (Mr Prick had treated her like slave for the whole project and thought that she's his. He complained she's slow while giving her all the work with no clear briefing whatsoever. He doesn't want her to do any other work except his work, eventhough he knows she has other work to do. Such a dickhead) and huge meeting was held after she complained about 1 of our projects that's super overbudget. She said, she felt sorry coz they did all those for her. To which I replied, why do you feel sorry that he had treated you so badly??? It's clearly not her fault that he was being super bossy and all, but she felt bad when he apologized.

And now I'm kinda the same. How can I be more ignorant? :/
