Blogging in the office is getting addictive, especially the last 10-15 minutes before my lunch time at 11:30am. That’s what happens with human beings, you get distracted by the most nonsense reasons possible, not because the reason is so strong that it justifies you losing focus but because you just want to be distracted. I admit.
Today is just another fine day with nothing special happening. The cute girl behind me is still whining about how annoying the guy next to him is. We have a fun chat about how we should get rid of him. Nothing sensible, nothing reasonable, nothing real, nothing logic but that’s why it was fun. LuLz.
Oh and that fella has never showed up on my blog before. Let’s feature him for a couple
One of the things that tipped the cute girl off is very simple. The guy next to her is just simply doesn’t cut it in terms of English language. It puzzled us that in a merchant service call center that stresses on world class services, how he could even be hired. I’m not even talking about accents yet(which he has a bad one), I’m talking about general English level that allows anyone to talk with courtesy and manners, using the correct choice of words at the correct occasions and situations. With this guy hired and is already confirmed to be a permanent staff (we seriously do not understand why) it tells you how much of a quality the person that decided to hire this guy. I am already feeling insulted with all the things that I had to go through back in my newbie days.
As a matter of fact, both of the newbies hired by the same Team Leader are just really below standard but for some reason they were confirmed as permanent staff for no apparent reason and faster than most people would have expected. The point is, from my point of view, they shouldn’t have been confirmed. I’m sorry to say this but pointing out the fact is just what I did. I admit I dun really like one of them and feel nothing about the other one but I really am not against any of them. Be it lazy or stupid it’s their own way of living, I don’t question their way of life as they do not cross my path. Or I should say, as long as they do not cross my path.
One of the new hire is a biggest lazy fat idiot I’ve ever known. I mean, I’m fat too, at least I’m willing to do what I’m supposed to do. Check out what he’s like in my earlier posts named “Lazy work mate”, that gives you a slight idea of what he’s like.
About the other one, quoting the cute girl’s words, he’s a “gone case”. He’s gone beyond salvation. Gone. Nadah, gone. He’s a banana. It’s a common term used here in this country to insult Chinese people that had English education. It’s discriminative. I hardly use it to describe anyone. A lot of my Chinese (as in MALAYSIAN Chinese) friends are English educated. They can only speak English and some Chinese dialects and I’ve never had a single thought of them being inferior. In fact some of them have such good English that I’m simply proud to have friends like that. The problem is this guy that I’m talking about only knows English but his English is so broken, even a car from pre world war one era runs smoother than he talks. I don’t blame him for not being to speak well; seriously, I blame him for working here thinking that he’s perfectly fine when we tell him what he needs to improve on. Having bad English is not a crime; having bad English and thinking you are absolutely on par with the rest of us while he is constantly making repeated errors is a SIN! How did he land the job? OMFG! Once again, proves that how bad of an idiot that interviewer was.
Bad at your job, fine. Bad at your learning, fine. Bad at hiring people… come one… he’s gonna bring down the whole team, or just screw the whole department’s operation balance.
Seriously, all hope is lost. Someone send us a Luke Skywalker.
Back to work.
Signing off.
