Today was a race against time, starting in the early morning as I just missed the feeder bus just in front of my flat. Had to brisk walk to the next bus stop about 400m away which have more options and took a bus to a bus stop NEAR the MRT station. After which i had to again brisk walk to the station, buying my usual breakfast item: Cheese+pork floss+sausage bun, along the way.
Managed to hop on to the scheduled train, allowing me to reach Jurong East at 7.27am. Alighted from the train, rushed down to catch the company bus which leaves at 7.30 sharp. after all that rushing, i was about 30 secs early as i watched the clock turn to 7.30 the moment i sat down. =P
With one more outstanding assignment left, didn't want to leave it undone for the week, so i rushed it. Finding relevant drawings/data from the design office and printing/scanning them. My first time scanning a A0 size drawing and printing it out on A3. =) The lady at the design office was extremely helpful and the young chap too. Will need to get their names soon.. so pai say. =p
Next was compiling the data and then checking with Mr Li what else was needed. He pointed out the missing required data (luckily i only missed out 2 items) and also wanted to add in a bunch of data with some colour printing required. Thanks to the help of Cindy, managed to get them printed out in the ONLY colour printer in the building. Obtained more help from Cindy in getting files and borrowing the label printer to tag the data nicely before getting it sent out via DHL to people in KL just after 5pm. heh. Thus i learnt a lot from my friendly colleagues yet again! =D
Oh...one last thing i realised i didnt do was to put my overalls to laundry service. i think i left it on clement's chair.. cos i was rushing off to catch the 5.20pm company bus out. =P heh heh. In the end, still missed out one thing. Looks like i have to wait till Monday before getting it sent out for washing. Hope Clement dont get back before me, else so pai say. Leaving my overalls on his seat. =/
Back to the main topic...had bid for COE today, putting my reserve price at $101 and everything was going smoothly until the last 15 mins, where the bids just flooded in and whoosh! Up it went, to the upper range of my prediction of $14,000. Must be the car dealers playing cos for the goods vehicle, from $1, immediately up to $10,001. If you are a normal person, you would have had bid for less right? tsk tsk. Wait for next month... today mkt drop, oil reaching $100/barrel. Should be less people playing. =D
