Back to Basics

Laptop, Handphone and Internet - The necessity of live. We are so dependant on technology to the extend that we sort of can't live without them. One friend told me that her life is in a mess because she didn't check her emails for 3 days due to some problem with her laptop. Well I understand what she means, especially since my mailbox will get approximately 20 emails per day, so 3 days would mean 60 unread emails. Those are on normal days, during peak period I could get around 40 emails per day. I have to admit, I am part of the cause for the 40 emails per day but right now, I am feeling the pinch. Why? Because I am serving back my NS and at my workplace there is no internet access nor a personal computer for me to use.

So life is back to basics. Back to paper and pen instead of Microsoft Words. Back to using books as reference instead of Google or Wikipedia. During the starting period, I felt so restless that I went around the garage to check on each and every single car. Hahaha... But now the effect has mitigated. And furthermore I got work to do now. Yeah you heard me, I DO have work to do at work.

Talking about work, yes I am serving back my NS and I have been deployed to serve in the transport office. Usually those who work in the transport office possess a police driving permit(PDP) but I have none thus I am not allow to drive the police car. So my job there is just like admin work. Issue vehicles, record movement, plan deployment and more paperwork. Well what can they give me afterall I only have 19 days left to serve. ORD lorrr!!!! Hahaha....

It a great feeling to be back at my old division. It has been four years since I left them for my studies. Now that I am back, all those colleagues that once work with me have now been promoted to higher ranks. And having them regconise you after so many year is more rewarding feeling. Some of the new NS boys thought I was someone new there but when they saw me talking in a friendly manner with their superiors, they do give me some respect. Well afterall I am older than them. Even though 4 years have passed by, some thing just never change. The work attitude and culture there is still the same, if you know what I mean. That's all I can say. Any longer I might be held for internal security act violation.

This is what I did on my first day there. Cool right. Hope I can get one for Saff. Hahaha...
