it was quite a sudden thing when the guru in my department decided to hand in his resignation just yesterday. although technically speaking i'm not *all* that surprise. when i first joined about a year plus ago, the things he'd tried to upload/teach to me were really seeming to be EVERYTHING he knows, and it felt like he was going to resign any minute back then. so presumably by now we have grown our team to about 4 times the original strength he'd probably gotten everything well prepared beforehand. he's not a singapore citizen so it's probably not too big an issue that he's migrating to australia. good for him to decide to move on. but i believe we'll have our own set of headaches without him around.
and then there was my this dear friend of mine. rachel had decided to do some charity and offered to introduce a female colleague of hers to my friend. mostly because he was recently dumped. his ex was quite a nice person, just that they kind of had some conflict that didn't do either one good if they'd stuck on. so the colleague was introduced to him, with the intention of making acquaintance as a friend. the bugger friend of mine decided that she was too good a catch to be missed and by the looks of it, both of us felt that he was rushing things a bit. okay not a bit, it was VERY. hopefully for her it's not a rebound thing (both of them got dumped not too long ago actually) but this guy really took the cake. we'd tried telling him to SLOW DOWN but he don't seem to be listening. damn all that raging hormones, pheremones, endorphins and whatnot for giving him such a headrush. and my poor rachel had all this while been pretty sick and all, fever, sore throat and stuff. my friend and her colleague had their first "date" just on Wednesday, and after having their dinner outside, the next thing on their itinerary (we still don't know which of the 2 really suggested it) was to actually gatecrash my house!!! the 2 of us were like OMGWTFBBQ what could they possibly want at this hour! it was almost 9pm, rach was sick and we were trying to catch the latest ep of a taiwan drama series (feat. Rainie!) but got sorely interrupted. =x like i told her lor... she was asking for it by trying to matchmake them... (not that rach expected this to happen, her poor soul)
in even major news, rachel just had a cool job offer! she'd found an old contact, had a talk with him, and she's decided to move on! it's really quite great news for her. all the plus points are quite something, in my opinion. this had better pay, better prospects, better environment, better location (nearer to her home), and as a perk, her job title sounds even nicer! this is definitely a good thing. you weren't too happy staying on in your current job anyway darling. like what that silly bear said, take this as a new chapter for you. xD
