hi joanne, oh where will u be going around that time? when u flying off?
Jellie, welcome bacK!!! tell us all about it! i also wanna go perth with my 2 kids, but some ppl say too ambitious to bring 2. but i wun wanna leave any 1 behind. that last time we were there, its just hubby and me (before kids) and we stayed at a pretty B&B in the middle of a local neighbourhood. but that B&B dun accept kids, so if we go we gotta loko for another place. do share!
so u find night flight better? but that time i brought my son to melbourne when he turns 1, we took nightflight there, he slept for only 3 hours and awake for another 3. so tiring though he was quiet and calm and interested in surroundings. flight back was day flight and have to entertain him but i find it less straineous on us coz at least i am supposed to be awake anyway hahahaaa....so i tot next time i will fly day flight.
tweety, how come no work but get paid and got standby one? oh dear...economy really not doing well yet...

hi elch - he is weird! better stay away from him...
XY,
Been here since the 5th Oct and out of the blue he skyped me and asks me if it's my baby in the profile pic, how long I'm married and commented that I don't look like a mummy and I look sexy with nice curves!!! He's a 40+ years old ang mo! To his comments I just replied a polite thanks! He's freaking me out and I've to walk pass his office all the time! His office is with this big glass window overlooking the long passageway where people walk up and down some more! Now I feel as if my butt's exposed when I walk down that passageway!

Elch - i think he is weird..and some more ang mo..think he must be mind filled w sex type...next time he say such things u tell him - u will sue him for sexual discrimination...
honestly if someone were to say suchthings to me (which will never happ looking at me - fat, tummy like 5mths preggie, hair in a mess...) i will give it to him..somemore office leh..is it supposed to be a professional plc?
in certain industry (banking etc).. they must really watch what they say cos can get sued.

JJmom, vanilla,
My 6th sense tells me it's harrassment...but how to handle it??? He has stop skyping me after complimenting about my 'curves' which I replied thanks. He has my skype address because Skype's used 'legally' here for 'work' purpose. He's 1 of the 'key' man and is in good terms with my CEO who's also an angmo! I'm in an engineering field but in an office environment...I'm feeling so awkward from top to toes now! Am I supposed to dress more sloppily from now on? I'm already very sloppy since giving birth! No more contact lenses, eyeliner and mascara!

Elch,
Just see if he does it again. If he does, politely and jokingly ask him if he knows this can be considered sexual harassment. Think he should get the hint after that.

I agree with JJmom... I have come across quite a number of men who test water on me as well... you just have to make it clear (but polite) that you are not interested. And they will not go any further. Usually they are quite "professional" in this aspect, as long as they know you are not game, it will be alright (at least in my cases).
take care!

hi elch - ya, lke what jjmom said - he cld b that type testing water. Sorry to any ang mo men who is reading this cos today my colleague just told me what her ex-maid did...my impression w ang mo man just go down the drain....
Elch - next time he say such thing, ignore him if he say that to u right in the face - tell him "thanks, but i only appreciate that thot from my hubby. I believe ur wife wld like it if u say that to her". hope that will shut him up....
no need lah. just wear what u normally wld wear. Some pple like to make others feel awkward...they want to have that impact!

Does it mean that I just have to 'wait and see' if he really goes to the extend of 'inviting' me to a fling before I make it clear and reject politely? Scared if I make it clear to him so soon he'll just say he's joking and that I can't take joke and etc!

elch - i think best is to ignore him.
dun reply him.. if u need to cos work (cannot turn face on him cos his relationship w big boss)..then reply - i am v busy, sorry no time to reply to u if not work related.
I think he wants u to feel uncofmrtable and he will know he make an impact -- just go take water, loo, like u wld normally and ignore him. if he skye u such nonsense then ignore him. only entertain him if work related.

just act cool, no need to be frantic. just act as normal, and when you reply him, just use a tone that you will normally use with colleagues.
