Weekend....

....is peace. And so we HOPE.

Yet another week gone by without any clear news on the arrival of our Philippine colleagues. We anticipated nothing, to be honest. Mr G has been telling us his plan to employ staff from our counterparts since like, forever? Then he had flown himself there once to headhunt. That trip was months back, and now? Nada.

This man lies through his teeth ALL of the freakin time, we now know too well to ever believe him again. If there's one thing that we learn here in the office, it's to ignore his crappy tales.

And talking about tales, here are our 'first day of work' tales to tell.

First Day of Work 1:  
Of all us here, I* is the longest serving staff who has been around for over a year. I* came here as a fresh grad, all psyched and eager to start her working life. So the story goes, she arrived in the office on her 1st day of work, nervously beaming at the shy guy seated at the reception table. Soon after, Mr G came and invited her into his office. After briefing her on her duty, he led her out to the office area and introduced her to S* at the reception. AND... that was the end of the staff intro. So asked I*, "Where are the rest of your staff?", answered Mr G, "Oh, I sent them all to man the sites." FULLSTOP. 
Those 'staff' that he had sent to sites, those were his imaginary staff. I* never got to see them. AT ALL..
