When It Rains, It Pours!!!

This, suppose to be holiday season. Time to relax, get drunk, shop till you drop among the xmas sale and pile the tummy with all the unnecassary carbs.

And yet this has been the worse holiday season ever.

It all started on xmas eve. My mobile rang, and when it rang at night time, I knew it couldn't be good. Sure enough... we had equipment failure on the field and from that point on, my phone just kept on ringing... my boss, the clients, the guys on the field... I couldn't enjoy xmas lunch with hubby and his best mates with the constant phone disturbance (as if I could organize any spare part from supplier when all offices were close). To make things worst, the cyclone was coming, so had to organize everyone whereabout and the cyclone evacuation plan. Than on boxing day, we had dinner with his friend that coming home from UK and I had to excuse myself because I had to do a phone conference, at 10 freakin night time.

Up to know the problem still not fix and I can see how this might go on and on all the way to new year. The cost of the failure keep mounting up as the time ticking. The current tally probably has passed the 3M mark now and I hate to see how much it'll cost at the end.

*&^$*#&%()$(**&)@#(*^ And to think that I get stuck smack bang in the middle of all this just because I'm replacing someone that going on a 1 month vacation. He sure owe me big on this one.

This whole thing just making me even sure of the decision that I've made. The only thing that keep me going strong through this whole ordeal is the knowledge that I don't have to deal with these craps anymore by end of January. It's a bold underlining statement that my work IS crap and no money in the world could ever put me in this kind of stress anymore.
