after prom

after prom party was quite an eye opener. haha.

NOOB!

after a long long break

long time didn't post. haha so now blogger's got a new version where you seamlessly integrate with gmail. bloody hell dumb me didn't create another gmail account, so instead, i used my actual 1. so much for being anonymous.

anyway it's been a long time.

'A' Levels

didn't really study much. and then again, even if i studied, it wouldn't be of much use since everything that came out wasn't really in the notes. application based? maybe. i was thinking since this exam is taken by people from different countries, and since it was set in UK, they'll probably be setting it in accordance with what teachers there teach and stress on.

should have practised. i'm really really gonna die for maths. haha left out a whole 10marks question and that's when i could do with all the marks i could get. bloody hell.

damn games. played throughout the whole of the 'As'. hope my 'skill' can be depended on.

Holidays

i don't know what to do. games games games. quite loser. hahaha. tried finding a job in the newspaper. i realised that most of them are scams. i mean, what respectable or proper company would spend just $50 dollars on 2liners?

i called 2 of them and luckily they were in the same area, so i didn't need to waste time travelling to and fro. both said the same thing, which was for me to come down for an interview and find out more from our manager. bloody hell the 1st thing i noticed about the building was that it was probably the kind they used to film 'dark water' with all the gloomy long corridors. and then at the end of the passageway was the fucking office. it's quite large but 1 look and you can tell it's a today-here-tomorrow-gone business. they just rent it for a few days and paste some lousy laminated paper with some shitty company name over the door.

haha when i came in the bloody person who answered the phone was the receptionist also. nothing unusual about that. except that the 'manager' mentioned above was sitting at a lousy table just a few steps away from her.

now that i think about it, it's really stupid. any company would without a doubt tell any potential candidates what a job is about before asking them down for an interview. of course, this applies to small time jobs, not those executive appointments. asking any tom dick or harry that calls down for an interview without asking for background info, without telling them what they're coming down for smells of fish.

i think they want as many people to come down as possible to try their luck. try their luck in what? we shall see.

the stupid ugly receptionist who can't speak propurrrrrrr engrish takes down the numbers of those who call and schedules them for an 'interview'. she takes them down on a A4 blank paper. i was given a appplication form which was printed on the spot. it's looks like shit, because it must have been photocopied a thousand times, and there was no company name at the top. it was badly aligned, it's almost like an X. they must have stolen the form from some other company and erased the header.

and oh by the way, which company has only 2 people working in that huge office?

so dumb me filled up my application form, handed it in and waited. since they conduct the interview just beside u, and (surprise!) not in a private room, you can hear most of what's being said.

i tell you, it's a fucking scam. interviews my foot. they're just talking to pretend they're conducting interviews. bloody hell i heard the interview with a china girl.

the china girl skips school to work, so the 'interviewer' asks her why dun go school, will her grades suffer, will her parents know and finally, a friendly word of advice, 'careful ar, XXXX will check your attendence and they might kick you out if you skip school too many times.'

FUCK YOU THIS IS NOT AN INTERVIEW!

the 'interviewer' wrapped things up by asking chinagirl to come the next day for orientation and bring money for it. cibai scam just wanna cheat people of their money.

so i told the ugly receptionist i wrote something wrongly on my form and could i have it back? i took it and walked out.

then the other office. fucking beside Hotel 81. i walked up the stairs since it was on the 2nd floor. i didn't know i had missed it until i reached the 3rd storey. i didn't bother going in.

FUCKING SCAMS!
