Always remember life is without a problem, never without difficulty, never without hurtful moments, but never without God to lean on.

Bad Time=Tough Time
With SARS around the globe and Singapore, work has been many times tougher and harder than ever before. I admit that the job i'm in now is already tough, it's much worse now. There are even lesser people on the streets these few days, because everyone's staying at home, preventing SARS. People are also avoiding the surveys, coz the press and media somehow talked about whether we were cheating people, using giving away free gifts, without paying, to go for the exhibition, and things like that. Number of ups decreased for the past two days. Sigh... And i've yet to get an up in!! I may get nothing for my next pay cheque, if i still don't get the ups.
Quite a couple of collegues were feeling sick today. One got food poisoning, another took MC, another didn't go to work coz her mum was worried about her getting SARS, and another still reported to work even though she threw up when was at home. But she was told to go back home an hour after. Worst thing was that, all these people all came from the same team. It was none other that Naresh's team, and yes, he was a desperado today. Haha!! He was so desperate to hit his 8Qs with 4 OPCs, and thank goodness that he did manage to hit the 8. Yeah! Although i'm not in his team, he still asks me to try and stop couples, if not, singles. I could say that today i manage to do quite a number of surveys, but most of them weren't qualified for it. Sighs.... Why??!! It's okie, there'll be a day when i'm able to get a client in. No worries!
A collegue has been behaving weird lately. She tries to seek attention by telling me and my other collegues the price of the Miss Selfridge pants she bought, how many she bought, showing off that she pierced her nail, telling us that she quarelled with her mum because she insisted to go work even though she wasn't feeling well, and she even tells us how much money she gave to her mum and grandmum.... Come on, no one actually wants to know about all those stuff. Luckily, it's not only me who's thinking this way, my two other collegues too. One collegue thinks that she has low-self esteem, and wants to seek attention, while another thinks that she's quite different now, compared to the time when she got to know her. I seriously have no idea what is wrong with her. I thought she was not like this when i first know her, she's getting worse day by day. Now she says that she has got camera-phobia after the media filmed what we were doing. Just do not understand why she has to worry about what the media has said and blah blah blah... My collegue (Daneille) actually said that she feels annoyed when being with her, and asked if there's a way to let her realise that she has low-self esteem. Well, i don't think anyone is able to help her when she's like that, and she has to realise that when the day comes.
It'll be a better day tomorrow. Gonna charge up and get ready the approaches and ensure that i'll get the ups. My "personal" sup would be around to assist me. Hahaha!!!
