You will be missed but not forgotten

I’ve been so occupied lately that whenever I tried to write something, my ideas went down the drain. When writing email or reports or anything else which is work related, I had these ideas streaming to my head that always I have to jot it down for future writings. I haven’t started reading 3 of my books that I bought last year. I have Glee season 1 to watch. I have Gossip Girl season 3 waiting. I stopped playing FB games except Farmville. I have a new house to be prepared for rent out. I haven’t finished looking up for nice lamp. Haven’t fix the grille. The curtain. My never ending list of work in the office. The over-pressure situation at work as I am now reporting direct to my ex-boss’s boss. Okay… why am I telling you all these…?

I am actually in a stressful mode lately. My ex-boss is now transferred to other site in Manila since April. The ex-boss’s boss (lets denote him as Mr K) doesn’t seem to understand operation. Can I say at all..? To make it worst, he is not an engineer. He has engineering background, that’s what I heard but he never practice engineering. Too bad, most of my issue he doesn’t seems to understand. Not only he doesn’t know operation engineering, he doesn’t know project engineering too. He has this attitude of pushing you when u made a mistake. He rather asking you why thing is not done correctly than asking you how to move forward. He disturbs all level of executive rather than talk to the department head only.

Mr K has a pet. This pet is working in same office as mine. And this pet is famously known as “cakap pandai kerja tak tau”. But being a boss, they love this kind of pet. Can we say dog? A few situation happen that this dog bite me. Office politics is over rated. We call this as office drama. I have not been treated that good by Mr K since my boss left. Not because all these while I’ve been protected, but because he has his own dog and he must take care my ex-boss dog too. Yea.. my ex-boss had a dog too. Which is of course not me. I’m nobody’s dog. I’m stubborn and rebel.

I know I used to write something about my ex-boss. That I don’t really like him. His game. Between me and his dog. But I know, reporting to him is way better than reporting to Mr K who knows nothing. At times, I missed my ex-boss especially when I’m stuck. He listens but yet in the same time he challenge. That's the good thing about him.

Taken on his last day as my boss

I heard they are recruiting new Engineering Manager. Hope to get a boss that listen and coach.
