Pay day!
It’s 1st Feb and it’s finally pay-day! I think it’s outrageous that you only get the hard earn money after you have actually worked the entire month!
Last month was particularly difficult, my previous company paid us every 25th day of the month and now is all changed, so I had to make my last pay cheque last for nearly 6 weeks! and bearing in mind Christmas (the biggest expenditure!) Plus Canada holiday. Plus I am in fact unemployed the 1st week of 2007. Anyway, the dark days are over!
So.. 4th week into my job, ok over all, but sometimes I feel as though I don’t even existed.. for starter, because of space issue, I was placed in finance department, I have garments sitting next to me still wrapped inside poly bag as I don’t have a rail to hang them up. The accounts I have now were being handled by our overseas team previously and they are still dealing with the clients direct, so where do I stand?? (My main concern is of course how would my commissions be calculated?? haha.. mean I know but money is the only thing I get up at 6.30 for!)
The strangest thing of all, I have not even spoke to my boss yet (perhaps it’s a good thing).
It’s quite funny sitting in the finance department though, you will hear all those money issues.. and yesterday we have a ‘milk crisis’. Apparently, the milk consumption is rather high last month.. oh dear oh dear, I miss my old company already.. those buffet breakfast!!
OK, this is not a races comment but I think sooner or later I will be able to speak Indian, just now I was listening to Indian pop music 
My company is a global company, headquarter is in Bangladesh. My rough guess, 80% of employees in UK head office are Indian with the board directors are all Indians, so..
Ok, done with work. Me and Mike are going skiing again in March, just had my holiday approved aswell. I was abit worried cos appareantly, I am not supposed to take leave until I have completed 3 months of employment, so I was just couple of weeks short. But I’ve got away with it
We going to Italy and ski the massive Milky Way, how exciting?? Just pray for some decent snow now… oh and need to arrange a good travel insurance for Mikey!!
