Bye bye to my leaves

Ok ok I know that we are in global economy crisis now, and I should be lucky enough that I am still employed. I somehow find it funny that makes me can't stop laughing at myself. Well, just a few months back, I talked about how I dislike my job and pressure working there and wanted to resign so badly and only waiting for my borne to be completed. And my 2 years borne completed yesterday, but here am I hoping that my company won't sack me now ... Hello, this is not the usual me ... This proof that we change with the time, or its only me?

There is not much to write about my company and how we handle the crisis thing, as I do not want to drag so much of this in my blog. It is just that we received another email from my HR dept, telling us that my company will be shutting down every Monday in the month of Feb and March, deducting our leaves, and for those who doesn't have leave left, it will be unpaid leave then. Well, I took a look at my Jan pay slip, I got 12.83days left, which means after minus the 6days, I will have about 7days left.

We shutdown for 4days during Christmas, 1day for workcell based shutdown and another 3days during Chinese New Year. And before we could breathe again, there is another 6days of shutdown. Total is 14days in 4 months. I don't know what will happen next and hope that everything will be ok soon.

I won't be buying car now for sure. I went to bank to bank in the car deposit that I prepared earlier, keeping the $$ in FD now, and what shocks me is ... the FD interest has gone down to 2.5% ... WTF ... sigh ... this economy crisis is killing me slowly ... money is not enough ok ... so stop doing things that will 'burn' my money please ... I need to save money... Hello PTPTN, I will pay you back later ok?

What are were you planning to buy initially?

The economy is definitely not in a good condition at the moment but that does not mean that you cannot try your luck with your resume right? In fact, I have a friend (not-so-close type) going into Jabil with ±RM7,000 salary just early this year. :S

One man's meat is another man's poison, eh?

Sorry for the typo:

What car were you planning to buy initially?*

How about a Viva? It is much affordable and looks almost the same as Myvi. :S
