Company POLICY



Funny policy made by my current company I am working with :

Compassionate leave entitle for confirmed staff ONLY.

So I replied :

Thank you for info and yet another funny policy, as if I could ask Allah to delay it as I am not confirmed yet  =(.

This is what the un‘emotional’less HR5 quoted [I meant to say she is too emotional to back up the company instead of replying in a more non-bias tone, and also quite rude to say how ‘lucky’ I am when my Mak passed away.] :  

This is company policy if you not agreed on that kindly refer management. One more thing you’re lucky because now management agreed to give an advance annual leave to you. So no unpaid leave deduction was made, before this unconfirmed staff not entitle for compassionate leave also not entitle annual leave until their confirmation so we declared as unpaid leave. Thanks to Allah.

I didn’t care to reply, not to waste my time with somebody who is not worth an explanation. Allah kan ada [untuk membalasnya]. May my Mak rest in peace.. Al-Fatihah.

Somehow somebody replied with more appropriate explanation and tone :

Dear Siti Fairouz,
As per now, that’s the policy given by Company. We are currently work out to revise few of the policy. We are aware that all the non-confirmed staff is not entitled to the compassionate leave, that’s one of the reason why we are revising the Annual Leave policy. So that, non-confirmed still can take leave as per located/prorated for any emergency cases.
Thanks.

Yes, you are the COMPANY, I am only a WORKER. But remember, Allah own the greatest COMPANY. No matter how well established, how strong financially you are, just remember it is the worker who shed their blood, sweat and tears, helping the company to grow and survive. Take a good care of them, Allah will take a good care of you. 

Good people will leave, only losers stay.

This was once quoted by an x-boss of mine. Allah Maha Adil kan. Good people are for good company. It might be that Allah send them temporarily just to ‘teach’ them some lesson, or to ‘teach’ the company a lesson. Wallahualam.

Online Digital Photo Printing



It has been 2 busy weeks and today I am free...as for now. I have decided to give myself a break and shall start the reporting routine tomorrow. I have too much things to-do in my lists that need to be cleared sooner. Some cloths to let go, baby clothes and toys and misc to properly stored, some unused thing to keep in store, an old tv to dispose and whatnot. My elder sister is expecting and I need to start gathering all the things she inherit me during my 1st pregnancy. 

I have been keeping my baby’s photos in my pendrive for printing as arwah Mak requested for her grandson photos – but I was never able to make it. I remembered how she would ask how her grandson is doing every time I called but in the last few days of her life, she never asked. Not that I feel upset that she didn’t ask, it just reminded me that I have not fulfill her request.

Today I’ve discovered the online digital photo printing services while googling for photo printing price and decided to try one. It cost around 25 – 60 cents per 4R photo depending on the discount offered. Normal price would be 60 cents [pfffft my budget is 50 cents~].

Luckily I came across this www.eoe.com.my which offer an easy photo upload option and are within my budget (30 cents per 4R photo…yeay). You need to download this photo up loader software and install it in your PC. The process was so fast. I was able to download, install and upload photos in less than 10 minutes. 

See how convenient it is to online shopping. All you need is internet connection and internet banking for payment purposes and wait patiently for your parcel – save energy, save time, save money [petrol kan dah naik 20sen).

Sick Month



This month has been a ‘not so well’ month for me. It’s the second time I had a very bad flu, susah nak bernafas even when I am sitting or standing. To add it up kena sakit gigi pulak. The worst sakit gigi ever kot, sampai tak bole tidur. Tambah lagi dengan sakit kerongkong, perit yang teramat sangat. I remember waking up at 4 am sebab tak boleh bare the pain anymore. Teringat kat arwah Mak – how she suffered tak dapat tido nyenyak for months and sakit tekak sampai nak telan air pon sakit. Al-Fatihah untuk arwah Mak. Nak makan pon sakit and kena kunyah pelan-pelan. Ditambah dengan hidung tersumbat, proses makan tu bukan sesuatu yang mudah. Malas nak suffer, I choose bread for lunch. Dah 2 hari lunch on bread je. Nampak macam diet but it is not. The 1st lunch bread day I ate 1 sausage roll + 6 mini pandan bread and 2 pack of sultana cookies for tea-time. Today I had raisin outmeal bread and almost finish the whole loaf myself. Obviously this not diet. 

Si kecik tu pon demam semalam. Second time demam bulan ni. Last time masa I was on EL for the whole week so it is not a problem to take care of him. This time I just can't afford to take leave to jaga him as I am also not feeling well and dah kerap sangat cuti bulan ni. Oh anak be strong and healty ye. Ya Allah lindungilah dia dari penyakit yang berbahaya.
 
Kalo ikutkan hati semalam memang nak kerja, sebab I am not entitle for MC anymore, which mean kena deduct salary. Tambah dengan kerja kat opis yang dah due and bos kompem akan komplen asik EL and MC je. Rezeki kan Allah yang bagi. Sakit ni pon dari Allah, mudah-mudahan dapat hapuskan dosa-dosa kecil.
