Intern jokes

So I decided to write again after a month's break from my blog. Its getting a little uncomfortable and lonely here without Joon Aun's presence and the fact that we can't really text much at the mo, so, I had to do something. Its worse than I thought. =S

Speaking about my latest updates, Intern! hows this, hows that, hows everything? right, let me spill it out here. I arrived at the office bout 8.30am on the first day and I was a little surprised to see that it was still dark. Later, someone came to open the door, and the first question was "You didn't know our office open at 9 ah?"I smell sarcasm.

The moment I walked in, I smell trouble. Alright, fast forward a bit. Surprisingly, there are many many interns. Cheap labors, this signifies something. We sat in the meeting room because there were no other place for us. So we were briefed with job descriptions, technical aspects, the engineers are nice people, they teach a lot, and the list goes on...

Mr. trouble came so obvious to me when within the first three days, I can address the conflict and the politics going on in the that freaking small office. LOL. Even the poorest observer will be able to know whats happening exactly. Whatever is happening in there is two words, messy & conventional. And its funny to see them backstabbing each other, right in front of us hahahaha. None of our business though, I'm glad I'm just an intern.

When clock strikes 6pm, we leave. Sharp. But then Ms. sarcastic complained saying we left early this week. Oh boy. Firstly, you do not have a time reference. Secondly, everyone's watch could be 2-3 minutes different. So, i guess we left at 5.58pm, their time. Goodness, they want to calculate that 2 minutes.. Each minute is 5 cents, 2 minutes = 10 cents. C'mon, RM2 per month, give you. Bei lei Bei lei Bei lei! *chuckles(I can imagine Kenny and Yung Lin imitating Yip Seng's signature gesture)*

The funniest part is, the next day, they implement log book system for time in, time out, just because engineers leave 2 minutes early! LOL.

Well, I did make some friends there, and we all find it funny... always having good laughs. I'll be back for some serious reviews.

: Haha! I had the same problem when I did my internship. :P Night shift. My shift was suppose to end at 12.

At 1 a.m I asked the "boss" there if I can leave already and she said to me: 'Did I say anything about being able to leave? Your shift is over, so what? There's no one to watch the hotline'. I stayed for awhile and eventually left 20 mins later because it was ridiculous and she knew that I have an early shift the following morning.
