day in the terminal..

finished work early today.. at 530.. cos we wanted to go somewhere near our hotel to eat.. and the driver could send us there.. and then dunno go where.. and then come back again at 715 to pick us back to the hotel.. the driver's life quite poor thing leh.. morning he picks us up at 845.. and then before that he has to pick up the assistant logistics manager from the hongkong shenzhen terminal.. and at night must send us back to whereever we want to go (which is mostly the hotel anyway) and send the assistant logistics manager to the hongkong shenzhen terminal for that guy to take the ferry back to hongkong.. the driver is so skinny oredi.. still have to work so hard.. poor thing man..
 
but tomolo was a damn funny day.. tokked to this guy (lets call him mr k) from the cargo team.. and he was like damn funny lah.. whole day just making fun of my chinese.. and then.. he took my piece of paper which i had written some notes on.. and then i had to ask him so many times whether he had taken it cos i relli didnt have it in the audit room... and i had not brought the paper out.. cos the pple had come into my room for discussion rather than me going out to meet them... anyhow.. he insisted that he didnt take.. but i insisted that he did.. and at 4 plus.. i was quite desperate to get the paper back oredi.. so i made mr k walk all ard the office to look for it.. 
 
there are many copies of that paper ard in the office.. cos they made a lot of copies to disseminate it out to the staff concerned.. but mine was special.. cos it had a lot of scribblings on it.. and then we went to this dept near his dept.. and he was like asking all ard.. and then this girl was like.. oh is it the one that had a lot of scribblings.. cos she had seen mr k carrying it that morning.. and then suddenly this guy across the office stood up and said.. issit one of these 2 papers?? and he was carrying one without scribblings and one with scribblings (mine!!!).. haha.. mr k was damn funny.. he was like telling the girl why she "bao do" him.. and mr k was so apologetic that i had asked him SIX times.. and he had said no no no.. in fact.. he had suaned me that i actually asked him six times!!! hha.. anyway.. in the end.. now he owes me a treat.. tomolo afternoon.. haha :)
 
these pple in the office are relli nice.. all veri helpful.. although there is a bit of language barrier for me.. cos i told them that they could speak in chinese.. but most of the time i couldnt understand and mr k had to be the translator as he was present at all the discussion sessions.. and sometimes they would rattle on in cantonese too!!! haha :) i like these type of client.. actually the clients at the shipping company are mostly veri nice.. haven met any mean pple yet.. except the one girl doing loan and borrowings at the HQ treasury.. i haven met her.. but i tokked to her on the phone before.. mx met her.. and he got pissed with her.. hha :)
