Got wave from my VP (old school title here), that our team has gotta work on FT Day (1/2/06)! What a bummer. This would count as my second time working over the public holidays. The other time was over Hari Raya Haji went I had to do an audit located in the middle of a palm oil estate over at Kemayan.
To re-affirm that statement, my senior VP also called for a brief meeting to echo the news and that there will be no exceptions. One of my collegeaus actually bought a return flight to Japan over CNY, costing over RM5k. Looks like its gonna have to be forfeited. Sad.
In other news, one of my assistants has been on AWOL due to his uncle who had an accident earlier and had just passed away. He was granted 2 days compassionate leave and took a few unpaid days. Supposed to come back today but he's not around! Didn't even call.
Knowing its peak period, we definitely need the support, but I guess he's too busy with excuses and used to working 9-5pm jobs. On one Saturday, he sms'd me saying that he had to stay home coz his air-cond needs servicing! alamak....
Going to start kickin' ass and taking names.... (or is that how it goes)
