Yes, I think I'm practicing and am doing fine. Why? Cos I know myself very well, how much patience in me and how is my level of tolerance. Surprising, I managed to keep my cool for the 2 past incident.
One new colleague of mine, Jack the Joker, I think God must have heard my prayers and sent him down to test my Patience and tolerance skill. Not once but twice did he behave like a MCP to me. Maybe he looked down on Girls, or maybe that's him.. Hey.. That Macho man too, sometime when he speak to others he too, can't talk properly, too blunt, but at least till date he have not behave the way like what Jack have done.
1st Incident – 12th March 2007, time – Can’t recall. Venue – Line Office. People involved – Jack, Mr X and Myself.
I was standing at the copier, doing my photocopying, Jack was standing behind me, talking to Mr X. As he have finished his conversation and decided to put his Ass on his chair, he pull up the chair and say to me " Siam Hor" Oops…. Forgive me… I know I’m fat and I’m sorry if I’ve obstruct the passage way. Surprisingly, I wasn't angry at all, Yes! I swear.. I just feel the urge to laugh! Yes, Laugh… hahaha.. NOBODY in my office have said something to me Before, Not at all. I think normally people will say "Excuse Me" or "Erica.. excuse hor" Yet.. He is so unique.. So Macho… hahahha.. Got character!
2nd incident – 16th Mar 2007, time around 2pm, Venue – Line Office, People involved – Jack the Joker, Teacher Tan & Myself.
Jack was trying to do a claim for his receipt under the supervision and assistance of Tan. Upon completion, he ask Tan who should he give the receipt to ( I remain silence as I know how efficient Tan was), Tan said " Give it to Erica" Guess what.. he "Fly" the paper to me saying " Nah, give you" Again… he didn’t even bother to call my names, the very least he can do is " Erica, for you." Sigh.. what's wrong with me.. I am NOT angry again.. I'm Shocked, so was Tan, we just look at one another and smile like idiots.
My colleague was wondering what's worng with me. Guess I’ve never been a girl with patience yet this time round seems like I have exuberant temper. Twice, let see if he will irritate me again, I can't guarantee I'll be angel, we shall see…
