what comes around goes around.

So im really glad whenever i meet nice people.

For instance, this morning 87243258394 of us had to flag cabs go work as the shuttle bus that were supposed to fetch us broke down in the morning.

And the fare can be claimed from the company; this is something good when you work for the government;

And since its quite hard to catch a cab on the orchard streets, our bosses:"lets go buy breakfast first then *grinning*". Tts only 10mins to work time but it did not even the slightest bother them. So jimmy jeanie and me just tagged along behind them to da pao.

Well this is really something fortunate when you get to work with people like these, in addition, to be exact, they are your supervisors; your bosses, young bosses- only one decade difference away from us.

No air, no fakoish-arrogance though ranks above us. Affable and take good care of us. I felt so protected, like the endangered species sometimes.

Probably its due to 50% staffs in our department are already in their mid 40s and a mother of a few at home, hence they couldnt control their mother nature which was wide spread across the office.

Occasionally the ladies will pass their goodies with us and them tell us some ah ma tales
YIP will share with us the lil joke of the day
the bosses will teach us how to enjoy our work
and last but not least, it always cracks me up when i see hostility in them when handling people from other departments.

Each of them is characterised in an unique way and i took great pleasure observing them. At times they appeared to me like those comedy sit-coms.

This is the kind of warmth i hope to receive.

There is too much to be told. Everyday just appeared to be interesting.

Just now on the way home. Forgetting that the bus broke down in the morning, we boarded it gleefully.

Then something horrifying happened. Ths bus is much more bumpy than ever and was making alot of noise as it drove on. A number of cars began to drive near to our bus and try whatever best they can with their lip-telling and hand language to tell us that the right back tyre of the bus is loosened. Even passengers stopped and was dumbfounded. Ok it was cute.

Seriously im so touched by all these gestures but the bus driver was so terrific that he continued to drive on at a speed slower than the van, confidently.

Probably for those who knew had already guessed it. Yesh i was creative with my imagination again.

I was paranoid and thought the bus might skit out of the road suddenly and collide into another hard object. Then a big explosion occurred and . .

Well with the pessismist me thinking that all in ths bus might die together, jenny occassionally startled by whats gonna happen, jimmy changing his stand and jeanne lamenting, the bus full of passenger is not exactly quiet at that time.

Oh well, i bet u know if we reach the station safe and sound then.

I think i was kind when i told the driver to take care before i alight the bus.

I gotta thank him for such a horrendous ride without having to pay.
