Friday the 13th

Today is 13th of March, and coincidentally, it's a Friday as well. FRIDAY!!!! Do you know what it means?? Friday which falls on 13th, brings bad luck (it's a myth, a belief, a legend and I dont know where it came from). This morning, a heavy and long pouring rain fell. There came all the signs....

10am meeting. All staffs must present. From bosses to directors to scriptwriters to office staffs, all have to present. Then it started of sharp at 10am. Mr P. said, today....... I.... I.... and he continued with tears running down and lips trembling......

He walked back to his room, calmed down, wiped the tears, and came back out again... continue with his speech.He announced that he's leaving us, going back to Singapore (HQ), it's all his personal reason.... All the way he talked with his shaky voice, and the staffs started to cry.... followed one by one....

Later, he asked us to give him comments or whatever we wanted to tell him... allowing him to see our faces for the one last time..... well, at least for the time being....

I'm very scared to see men crying, or dropping tears. It made me sad and dont know what to do to make them stop crying.... However, my boss, was not holding back at all to us, dropping tears... I'd say, he really treats us like a big family....

I couldn't get away from the chance to comment him. He called my name finally and I had to stand up.... All I said was only... "My time here isn't long, but I'm really happy to work here, thank you"..... Actually, I wanted to tell him I'll miss him and I really like him a lot... A LOT!!!

I couldn't continued... as my eyes started to overflew with tears.....

The meeting turned out to be a teary and watery moment.... it was all filled with tears and laughter (for some moments)...


***********************************************************************************************************

After lunch, another meeting with the representative from SG.... a personal meeting.... It went fast, just 2 minutes. I was told, the company could not afford anymore due to the economy crisis, they have to release me.... today would be my last day.

WTH!!!! I was so shocked!! I thought I could stay until the end of the month (I was prepared and guessed that we'd have to be released), but NO!!!! It's my last day, TODAY!!! FRIDAY the 13th, full of bad outcomes and bad surprises.......
After I came out, 2 of my up-line, asked me to enter their room... and they started to apologize to me... and my tears started to fall like the rain this morning.... it's not their fault, at all....!!!! I feel so sorry and reluctant to leave them... such nice colleagues they are.... treated me so nice.... taking care of me all the time... loving me as if i'm their sister.... "I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!" I wanted to shout... but no, because I cried until I couldn't say a word.....

Both of them are very sad, me too is still feeling very sad now.... They have their red eyes (obviously they had cried as well).... and I'm now sitting at my place, writing an entry for one last time at my place.... so emotional.....

Here, I want to thank all my colleagues, and bosses, both Mr P. and Mr PY, I'm truly happy to work with you all. I will miss you guys very much. Hope to see you all again soon............
