Unemployed and Bumming

 

I didn't feel what everyone thinks they would have on their very last day of work. I didn't rejoice that I didn't need to work but of course it beats traveling la. The idea that I always thought I had to sing along 'I'm coming home' by J.Cole just never happened. And the truth was that this was my last resort before a mental break down.

There was a farewell party cum birthday celebration and retirement on one Friday afternoon. And I knew I had to give a speech so I quickly made one that morning at work which went pretty well I would say =p  Besides the fact, I had to choose my words carefully as I didn't want to profusely sound like I owe my colleague my life at work. She isn't the best supervisor/friend at work.

My colleague who worked at the same department with me of a higher post was the most emotionless person in the room and we could practically feel her vibe. Whatever la, it serves her right for asking stupid questions to my colleague/friend whether is it Chinese people couldn't stand working for the government. that is why they resign? Like wth, people like you make us want to quit.

And a little something from me to thank the pharmacy unit in return was a Chocolate Indulgence cake by Secret Recipe. 

 

Ying Ying had also arrange our last gathering at Secret Recipe before I departed. She was my friend and colleague at Hospital Tampin who came in at the same time as me. Without her, I would have just died.

 Ivy, who couldn't join us for lunch but was forced to take a picture with.

I never expected that I would shed a tear or two when one of my dispensers gave me a hug on my very last day at work. Of all 3 of them, she was motherly and supportive throughout my days there. I felt that she never judged my work ethics and she was efficient even at her age. I was pretty shocked as well when my boss gave me a hug, then there were my dispensers and it suddenly just felt so genuine. 

Ivy asked why I didn't cry when they gave me a hug and the answer to my question is: I know I'll see you again =)

All this while, I had never accepted my fate with an open mind but they accepted me with an open heart except my colleague, who used me while I was there. I practically ruled the department on my own. pfft. I can imagine my desk filled with piles of paper and medication she can delay settling. I know that it'll just be a mess without me there.

People ask me what's my next move and I have to tell you I don't have one yet, at least not a solid plan. I'm on my break so let me chill!
