仿冒“回乡插曲”


想把回乡后的点滴写下来。
看到朋友的部落格里有着这样的主题:回乡插曲, 觉得很好听, 就借用借用一下, 嘿嘿。 才开始动手, 才发现原来这一个星期的假期, 都待在家里, 除了吃, 就是看电视剧和见周公。 身边的人都说快要变成猪了。

Careless mistake

I did a very careless mistake that make me very very embarrassing. I have a supplier from India came for a visit. He is the marketing director of the company. Of course, to show our manner, we (me and my another vet senior) went to airport and pick him up.
We were actually late...err...should said that his flight landed earlier, so we were late. Surprisingly he is quite handsome..like bollywood star...hahaha...does not look like him in the photo.
On the way back to his hotel, he grabbed the opportunity to talk to us, introduced his product and also discuss some market condition in India.
When he mentioned that their total comsumption of livestock meat in India is majority Chicken and followed by Mutton, I suddenly " Y is mutton?"
Then very fast I relalised that they do not eat beef. So I keep telling myself " They do not eat beef, dun ask about beef".....
Unfortunately, I also dunno what happen to me, I replied him : " the consumption of mutton is over beef?"
Oh my god...I can straight away feel that my face turn into very hot and red......his face also turn into very weird expression and cool....(god!!!)...
Then my DEAREST senior (vet) : they dun eat beef lah....right? HHAHAHAHAHAHA...He was laughing...
He some more laughing !!!
I felt too bad to say anything again...So I just keep quiet and extremely becareful in saying any word by then....:(

Living in KL

I enjoy life. I always wanted to enjoy every kind of life. So when I graduated, I decided to work in Kuala Lumpur, where high technology & communication, information is easily accessible. But how's the life in KL?
Recently, robbery, raping happens everywhere, anytime.....
To night, I drove back home after watching movie. I used to park my car in front of the shop houses opposite my condo. It's another problem in KL---too many cars and forever lack of parking space...Today, I cant find any parking lot in front of shops (here not easy to be stolen because some mamak store open 24 hours), I turn around several time can only found one...but I did not park at that parking lot...because there were full of a gang of youngsters....
Out of any idea, I parked my car at the road side. We used to park the car at road side, and wake up very early in the morning to drive away to avoid from kena saman early in the morning.
Parking at road side is one of the problem. Another problem is have to cross/ walk for a distance, to go through the pedestrian bridge with lottssss of youngster sitting at the road side yealling..I am not try to discriminate against any one, but what a coincident, all black, smoking, teasing girls....
So, I started to think, I choose to work in KL, am I putting myself in danger?
Then I remembered a famous author, Yong Liu ever said, he purposely asked his only son to take 3 hours train from Manhattan to the school in New York, EVERYDAY. According to him, New York is a complicated city, you may survive there, or may die there just in second. There were full of robber, ppl with guns, proffesionals etc...He believe, ppl under this condition, will grow faster and better, because they try their very best to survive.
So do we in KL right? I believe, we learn more, to protect ourself, to survive, to seek for better living....
Gambate!

Who am I

Most of my frens know that I have an english name --- Evelyn.
Well, ppl pronounces it differently.
In my company right now, there were several pronunciation,
Some call it correctly " Eve--lyn" , sounds "if-lyn",
Some call " Ever--lyn",
Some call " E -- ver--lyn"
Some call "E--lyn" --my customer called me like that
Some may due to pronunciation problem/ purposely, call me as "Evening"
And some, for joking purpose, call me " Morning" --just like my dog's name!!!

Yesterday, my dear boss (my manager) called me "" err... arr...err......" he waited few second until he reached me " E-ver-lyn, could u bring the documents to the meeting later" .
Later, in the meeting...when he wanna assigned me some work " err........" then he looked at me and waited for few second again, " er..E---lynn will incharge of this portion" ...
I nearly laugh out, but I dare not.

Today, he mentioned my name as " E-De-lyn" to my department manager..
Oh My god.....I got a brand new name again...
so, which name should I answer to?
To my dear manager,
I have been working for 4 months....
y cant you remember my name by looking at my face?
maybe I always change my hair style recently? (ok, it's my fault!)
but my face din change mah....(even though not so pretty lah)
may be my name is too difficult to pronounce??
would "Eve" easier to remember?
(Actually Eve should only meant for my bf, but since it already misused in university ...dun care lah)
To my dear colleague,
Please do not expose this blog to our boss...ok?
Thank you very much for saving my job.
