All these small talks caught Carol's attention, after they left.. Carol came over to my table
Carol : hahaha who are those guys .. so funny.. and u hardly talk to people in such a way...
Me: all those are boss friend.. they are a bunch of funny guys.. but not easy to handle.
Carol : but u seem to get along with them very well.
Me: yeah .. one day u will learn.. to be able to communicate with all levels, all walks of life.. is essential for people like us. Before you can manage you must learn to communicate. Before people listens to you.. you must listen to them.. aiya.. anyway you will learn it one day when you are working .
Carol : hmm I am working now rite ? No meh? Anyway, I will go and think about what you have said. But when you make small talks with them.. you sounded really relax and funny.. I prefer you in that mentality..
Me: huh ? I very stern and tense meh?
Carol: right... Dont think someone would actually talk to you at work like that... but now I will
Me: (smile) I dont smile at you doesnt mean I am angry with you. I dont cry out doesnt mean I am not sad.. so u better dont talk to me in that way. I might scare the hell out of u.. i ever made girls cried in this office.. dont be my next victim..
Carol: haha
I wouldnt. By the way... U look better today.. in this way.. the way u smile.
Not sure why. I was actually affected by the comments she made. I was lifted up by those words she said. I felt happy. Maybe when people compliment you.. it does help .. I went to drink Kopi with Lau and gang at around 1500hrs. They werent happy with how Ben handled their trip ..
They felt that if Ben is gonna be in charge.. they would rather go to another agency.. because they dont think Ben is familiar with Shenzhen. Its true... Ben knows a lot about beaches and resorts.. but not China.. its not his pro. Well.. and they hint me to do it for them.. but then .. I was too busy... how?
Back to my desk at around 5 pm, ta pao some snacks for my gals at the counter and my PA .. then started to dive into my piles of work again.. Until 9 plus.. when the air con starts to get really cold because no people are around.. then only I realise its late again ..as usual , i light a cigarette while packing my stuff. ''wei, u smoke here ar... ''thats Carol surprisingly.
Me: why are u still around at this hour?
Carol: oh.. I thought you were busy.. and I tried to settle the things I can for you so you dont have to work until so late mah.. but then I didn't expect you to finish so late.. haha.. when u are focused on something , u know boss dont even dare to intercom you?
Me: serious meh? ( smiling) I got so scary ma?
Carol: haha not scary.. but its a kind of charisma I think.. u can motivate us by doing that.. see Cyn, Jessica and Daisy they all also work very hard to help you le.. Grace told me not to disturb u.. when u are concentrating... I didn't know why.. but now I know.. I purposely took off my cardigan at some point around 7 plus .. and walk around u .. u also didn't notice.. haiz..
