Today I thought the boss was going to attend a meeting at 10a.m. But at 9.45a.m. he had not moved, so I reminded him but he said the meeting was cancelled. I was planning to write out some cheques for another sister company but my plan went down the drain. Have to do it tomorrow when he is attending a meeting.
My colleague NE and I were talking about how fast this year has just gone by. This year has been an extremely busy year for all of us. It feels like we had just been paid and it is already mid August.
Was on the phone with Mimie who works in a Quantity Surveyor’s firm. She told me her boss FT was telling her that an architect YTC whom we all know like to scold his staff. So one day when FT was at YTC’s office and after witnessing him scolding his staff, FT told YTC not to scold his staff and his reason was, ‘Please do not scold them. Of course they will make mistake and know less than you. If they know more than you, then they would be in your shoes and not your employees.’ Very well said FT and I totally agree with him. YTC is famous for being a very impatient person.
Before I came home this evening, I found all these food in the pantry/refrigerator. One thing good about not having JE around is that we get more of our share of food to eat. He does not leave any food he can see alone. I am not trying to demean him but it is the truth. I would not be able to capture any of these photos if he is around.
