Another day, another dollar - Miss Nonya


Above title is the Gchat status of my good friend and colleague. 


But how apt. How true.

Its funny how I'm starting to write more and more here. I think I've written more here than I've ever really written at home.

Blog posts tend to flow easily at work. Or is it because I'm slacking off? +P

Its the end of another day. Another day where things perhaps, hang once more in the balance. We're not too sure where its going to be headed but at least we know we're still here. And perhaps, that in itself is a consolation.

AspiringPerfumer once looked at me before dance practice and asked me how my day was. My answer to that was taken from the old battleaxe of a nurse that I used to work with back in Wangas.

"Oh well. Any day above ground is better than below ground."

And I guess, at the moment, that's pretty true.

I have a chat forum going on at present with my colleagues and ex-colleagues (you know, the ones that got axed. Pardon the pun) and last night, I got pretty fired up. The conversation talked a lot about what was going to happen in future and Miss Nonya was more than vocal to the Boss Therapist to tell him that she is not happy working for such people especially when there is nothing concrete in future plans.

So we're going to have another staff meeting this week and it should prove to be interesting. I have no idea what on earth will happen then. I mean, after the last staff meeting, pretty much the entire office got terminated. But now, it might be a different story. A lot of us are starting to ask questions and these questions aren't those that are exactly easy to answer. And that's probably exactly our point.

Its about time we just stood around and waited for our next orders. We want to know and we need to know.

The last few days as of late has consisted of us gathering in a group having dinners and beer chased down with shots of sake at Mummy G's favourite sake bar. Miss Nonya commented that we've all pretty much turned into a bunch of alcoholics but I think for now, we all need the extra devil's brew if we want to get through this a little better.

Ugh. I'm hungover today.
