From IJN with love....

NOT!!!
That's right. I'm writing posting this from Dad's room in IJN. He was scheduled for bypass operation today at noon. Due to unforeseen circumstances, it has to be rescheduled to another date. Just a slight delay of maybe a day or two. Depending on the surgeon's time table. I just wish we could get this thing over with, and move on to the recovery session.
I have taken the week off for this. Oh wait, I have to go back to work for second half of the day on Thursday. Nevermind. No biggie. But when your Mom has to go back to work to attend some royal visit, it really pisses me off how some human can be so inconsiderate to other people misery. We're talking about my Dad going for his triple-bypass and my mom has to attend to a full dressed rehearsal and ceremony because the Sultan is coming for a visit. I have nothing against the royal family because they don't really know the A to Z of what;s going on with the preparation to welcome them. It's those kiss-ass people who really irks me to the max! Come on people! Get a grip. This is someone's husband, dad and loved ones we're talking about. I bet if it's your mom, you wouldn't even blink to take leave just to be with her. Then again, talking about these kind of species.... you never know what they capable of. So, I'm just going to let it go. FOR NOW!!!
Right now I'm wondering on how to get here before 6 tomorrow morning. Arrrggghhhh!!!!!

A month has passed

Well, almost. Excuse? Busy, busy, busy...
I've started to enjoy my work place... FINALLY! Though I do feel kinda old since they call me 'Akak'. Heheh... Being a Malay makes it hard for them to just call me by name. It sucks big time! I wish they would just call me by name. Like some of them.
I'm still trying to break the language barrier. Being in Shipping Liner company makes it hard for me to even understand what the customer is saying. Not to mention they have their own code of certain thing that I know nothing about. Which makes it very frustrating. Especially when some customer just doesn't get it when I said 'no' to their request. For today I got one customer asked me to refer to senior staff for her request. I was so angry that I almost told her off by saying 'Who did you think I was talking to? A rock?!!!' The phone was mute, but my supervisor had a blast and laughed out loud!
Did I mention few months back I went to the dentist to get my wisdom tooth checked? Too lazy to browse the archive. Heh! Anyway, got x-ray proof that my wisdom tooth on the left lower gum is not coming out properly and most probably has to be removed surgically. He didn't insist on it so I just shrug it off. Boy, I did not expect the outcome for today's visit. The pain came back and I went for a quick visit hoping for pain killers. This time it was different dentist and he insist that either I go for surgery or live with the pain until I decide enough is enough. Not only the price will burn a huge whole in my ever so small purse, the procedure itself is going to put me through hell! For someone who went through 2 c-sections, I'm not too keen on having another surgery. I hate making decision for something that scared the heck of my wits!
To make matters worse, my dad is scheduled for admittance in IJN tomorrow. Going for angiogram on Friday and doctor has pre-booked for bypass the next Tuesday!
