i'm still a budak mentah at work,
which means naive kid;
besides, technical procedures isn't really my thing, you see.

BM: Yeah, I was wondering if I could get the airway bill from you?
Lady@Luft: What? Your agent asked you to do what?
BM: Get the airway bill from you?
Lady@Luft: Smart! You do know that it's their job and they're asking YOU to do it?
BM: Oh? I didn't know.
Lady@Luft: Give me the agent's number, and yours. I'll deal with her.
BM: Ok, thanks!

*** [5 mins later]

Agent: Hi Felicia! [very hyper]
BM: Yes?
Agent: Okay, so my drivers will come and pick both air/ship freight?
BM: So, everything is cleared?
Agent: Yes, but you need to fax me the invoice and packing list.
BM: Okay, your fax number, and attention to?
Agent: It's XXXXXXXX and Att to [insert name]
BM: Alright, I'll fax it to you, and you keep me updated.
Agent: Okay, thanks, and bye.

Wow, that agent must have had it from Lady@Luft (my angel).
Whatever it is, boy, am I glad or what?
Lesson learned and filed. Case close.

facing a predicament

Well, this time i cannot be greedy and say, "I'll take both".
And no, I'm not getting any be-my-gf proposals, unfortunately. xD
Work ethics, personal conflicts, credibility as well as knowing what's best for you. Gosh, and I thought the mass spamming of resume is tougher.

I remembered this story told by a monk of two sisters coming to see him to ask for his advice.One is married and having marital problems, and one is single and can't find a suitor.

The best solution would be switching, since one desperately wants one and the other can't wait to get rid of him.

But of course, the monk tells them, "You can't just get rid of your sufferings, if you're married, you have married-suffering, and if you're single, you have single-suffering"

So, there's no such thing as having it all, and having nothing at all. You will have problems, either way. And of course, grass is ALWAYS greener on the other side.

So, I'm telling myself right now, that I should be thankful, and of course, better make a decision by Monday. God, shed some light!
