What am I doing blogging now?
Eating snake while working lor...but oh! not during official working hours.
In Singapore, most companies have like 5 days or at most 5-1/2 days work week (for office work at least...not too sure abt retail working hours lah).
For this week, I have worked like 6-1/2 days lor....actually more if u count the overtime I worked during weekdays.
Mon, 4 May - 9am to 8pm plus
Tue, 5 May - 9am to 9pm
Wed, 6 May - 9am to 6pm
Thu, 7 May - 9am to 10pm
Fri, 8 May - 9am to 10pm
Sat, 9 May - 10am to 10pm (this is supposed to be my offday)
Sun, 10 May - 7pm to now (its 11.30pm and clicking away)(working at home)
So almost like 6-1/2 days work week for me....sigh....tat works up to about 63 hours of work (excluding 1 hr lunch break and 1 hr dinner break).
Lets see when my body will break down or my brain will bursts and become squishy if this continunes.....sob.....sob.......

"They're milking you to your death!"
After months of absence....I am going to blog a simple short post....
Why did I disappear for this period of time?
Coz it was the transition period when I was getting bored of my old job, hunting for a new job, got a new job, serving my notice in old job, starting new job and familiarizing myself in my new job. Good summary?
Fact is, today is exactly 1 month since I joined this 2nd law firm in my whole job history and the work here is killing me!
It wasnt that my last job was very slack but it had come to a point I know how to do the job there well and didnt have problem coping...this new job allows me to come in touch with a lot of new stuff I never did in the old firm (so its good for me in the long run). That plus the fact tat I had to learn a new file system that they used in this firm called "Leap". Now, tat is a challenge.
Oh, this post is getting a bit long....need to get back to my work soon....so figures, figures is wat I came to blog abt.
In old firm, I handled like 10 active cases at 1 go plus other conveyancing cases (cant count this coz its shared).
Here...the statistics goes like that:-
1st day of work - 19 cases
End of 1st week of work - 24 cases
End of 3rd week of work - 29 cases
1 month into the job - 34 cases!
What my friend said is..."They're milking you to your death!"
Hmmm...just becoz I dun say that I am stressed...or just becoz I didnt grumble like others when work get dumped at me, doesnt mean that its ok to keep dumping k...arghhhh....... (Curious to see how the statistics go in a few weeks' time? Tune in to this blog.....)
