SO! I've finally quit my old job... for a few reasons

1. higher powers are abusing their power (mwuahahha)
2. no ATA awards
3. boredom
4. i wanted to be the one to start the chain of all the other quitages
5. boredom
6. the shifts are getting painfully longer by the day
7. dont get as much free food anymore gg
8. I GOT A BETTER JOB !

Finishing this week and I dont think I ever want to know any more about superannuation again! yayyyy

And instead of calling angry ppl who hate being disturbed during 'tea', I'll be working with middle-aged pre-menopausal women (yea i know, so stereotypical) who are angry at little kids trying to get onto the roads before they learn how to walk... not so yayyy

BUT having said that, the pay rate is 25% higher and its 10 weeks full time training... SUPER YAYYYY

If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm gonna work as CSR at QLD Government Dept of TMR (stands for transport and main roads) and Ill handle anything from ppl paying speeding/parking fines to liaising with Australian Customs over interstate/international cases.... with full power to turn down learners licenses to those lil n00bs >:D YESSSS

But while i am happy to leave my old job...there were a few lil joys that are just weridly worth mentioning

We find amusements in many sad ways...



















I discover parts of Australia...








The posters behind the toilet doors at work ask rhetorical questions...



















Enough about work....
Dad, being the awesome cook he is.... made crab for us the other night and went to yuens to buy some noodles as the base of the dish...

In classic dodgy asian style, you can now insert the use-by date! wahahah















Amidst my late night online internet clothing browsing, I came across a shirt that made me think if Engrish could get any worse... or maybe the designer really meant what was said....



















CRAPS OVER WIN!

And one last tribute to my family friends' friends' new lil bub... CHUB OVERBOARD




















That must be some uber breast milk LUL

Outties for now~

2010 so far

Its that time of the year again:

> Sunday school has restarted.
> Done an INSANE amount of cleaning but it just never seems to end.

But some things are different:

> Found some physics workbooks and chemistry balancing equations in my filing cabinet the other day and i was DISGUSTED
> Can't wait till winter so i can wear all my fobby clothes i got from HK. Summer sucks.
> I feel old. Turning 23 is depressing.

Redefining 'weird'

You sure do get interestingly random conversations while working on teleservicing...

Man: Hello?
Me: Hi, I was wanting to speak to ______
Man: oh thats me
Me: cool. I'm Yvonne calling from your superannuation fund, ______
Man: oh you're not pizza? why arent you my pizza?
Me: I'm sorry sir, no I am not ur pizza
Man: Well im actually in the middle of a bushfire operation and i just ordered pizza so i can't talk about my superannuation and hold a huge hose unless ur my pizza
Me: ok! save the koalas!
Man: Ill take care of this and you get my pizza!

While others can just remain plain weird....

Me: So before I proceed with the call, I will have to perform a 3 point ID check sir just to make sure that I don't give your information out to the wrong person
Man: Well I reckon that you didnt have anyone to take to the prom on friday night and so you got bored and decided to ring random people!
Me: If you're not happy to go ahead with the call sir, I do understand.
Man: OH but if you ARE going to the prom on friday night, I'm available!!!

He was 40. ew. talk about mid-life crisis...
