Hey gers: just back from a session wif my other colleague who is 5+ mths preggie who also kenna retrench. She wasnt taking it too well & her boss is not reai being sympathic. Apparently when she ask how co can retrench her now when she is preggie, her boss told her he didnt realize she was pregnant. PLS LAR! Hers is so obvious cos her tummy reai big n she had been wearing proper maternity clothes since her 3rd mth. She also called MOM already who told her they cant do anything for her cos she is not into her 6th mth yet, so company no obligation to pay her maternity benefits, if paid will be @ companys own discretion. She is now so pissed. I told her that I didnt feel too good either but we can oni look forward lor. I told her at least she is better than me cos she can use the remaining time to bond wif her daughter, I can oni face the 4 walls. SianK..

Cactus: e last time I gave tuitions was in college days when I need to earn my pocket $ lar. So long already, lost touch wif syllabus. Later teach kids the wrong things then die. Maybe data entry work or something can be consider lar but my contacts in the industry thinks I m kidding. One of them even ask me if I m testing his intellect. How could someone of my level want to do data-entry jobs. ArrrgggKK *hug hug* poor ger, do look after yourself over the wkend can? Tell yurself hb not ard but bb is keeping u company also, okie? Pm me if u need someone to talk to lar.
Elaine: oh dear, so now is yur elder boy ok? I didnt know of tat, oni read in preg bks tat baby can survive outside womb from wks 27 onwards, so I tot can shorten everything then I can go get started back on work n all.

Belsi: i m actually not positive but faced wif the colleagues ard me, some of whom are in worse of situation than me n I reai dun wan sympathy from colleagues who are not being retrenched, I hve to act like I m ok lor. When at hm, alone, oni I n hb know wat I m going thru. N of cos u gers here r on the receiving end of my moanings as wellK.
