Not Cut Out For It
Drove to attend yet another mundane meeting at
This reminded me of the satirical office joke email that my auntie sent me yesterday – regarding meetings as an excuse for people to impress others, to waste time and to make themselves feel more important as if they’re doing something grand). How ironic that my life is a living Dilbert strip – right down to its rotten corporate policies.
I couldn’t bear the thought of doing this for the next five years of my life, and I was surprised so many people would. But maybe it was because I never saw the importance of it – never really grasped the message that should be given, just like any other things in life in which I could always get the positivity out of.
In the end, it didn’t even matter. I’d put all the effort and hard work into something that was still ambiguous and pointless, for as far as I could see.
What did I want exactly? Respect? Appreciation? Admiration?
I visualized getting all that and yet I felt no change whatsoever. No excitement. No challenge. No self-development on my part. I realized that I would never be satisfied as long as I was still in that position, no matter how much effort I’d put in.
Maybe that was a good thing – pushing me to the very best. But then again, maybe I was just not cut out for it.

What’s this meeting for? Herbalife?
You know in Ugly Betty, Betty’s sister works for Herbalux?
ps: Therry, you dirty whore..watcha been doing lately? Huh, huh??? Hehe. Spill the beans to me.
No, this is at my work. I have to redesign a new look for my company’s products’ packaging. Medicine’s packaging are the worst.
What the hell is Ugly Betty? I knew one who sits right next to me, if that’s what you’re talking about (Yes, it’s my senior whom I’m referring to and that is her actual name.)
Moi? A dirty whore? I’m so much more virginal compared to you

I bet Syl talks!
Hahaha….what a coincidence that she’s ugly and her name’s Betty. It’s a tv show. Get the DVDs gal!
You? Virginal??? Well, if you’d like to compare, of course, I win. Hahahahaha…
Miss ya gal. I’m still waiting for that email that you said you’ll send me.
I love this post!, lol.
But yeah, been there done that. Not much to say about it, except to move on and face it with your chin up.
We are too creative to work under such silly and strict rules that make big deals out of everything
