An under-paid, over-worked employee's suckie day

My suckie day began with me forgetting to withdraw money...(smart huh???)...cleverly went to 7-11 to buy meself a bottle of mineral water @ $1 and tried to pay via NETS...kena suan by the 7-11 cashier..."sorrie NETS payment must be at least $5"...suckie x 1!!!

Then, received a freaking huge arrow from me director...i had to relocate like 10plus lab-tables with heavy phenolic tops, 9 LN2 storage containers, several huge boxes of scrap equipment, 3 lab systems, 2 incubators, 1 DNA sequencer...(beginning to sound like the 12-days of Christmas)...ALL by me humble self...okie...Mr Low helped me with the DNA sequencer and one of the lab system...suckie x 2!!!...and all i had to reward myself was a cutted finger and wooden splinters in another....

Another crushing news...we will be audited in sep...and yours truly would be spear-heading this audit...more like kena speared-in-the-head...suckie x 3!!!

Nabe...kena back-stabbed from "scat" again...when there is need for work, "scat" will transfer to me...claiming that it is under my perview...when it is time for submission, "scat" will say the work needs "scat's"vetting...then "scat" will secretly submit to my director and claim all the credit...suckie x 4!!!

Worked until 7 but that's not all...had to head down to Queensway to photocopy building plans A0 and A1 size...kind of tough trying to sleep on the train while holding onto those rolled-up plans...almost stab meself in the nostril...suckie x 5!!!

Saved the best for last...brought the number 7776 in today's 4D draw...KNN...open 7766...jump number...if not, got money to complete my CSI vcd collection...suckie x 6!!!

sigh...

I have just became an official couch-potato!!! (not that i didnt previously looked like one...)

Crashed season 1 (all 23 episodes) and season 2 (first 12 episodes) of CSI: Las Vegas in 2 weeks...the only limiting factor was that i was dead broke from buying all those VCDs...will most likely finish season 2 and 3 next month (pay-day faster come!!!)
