The reading-eye view of the man who is this blog's JV with me.
This was taken in Genting Highlands when we attended our company's teambuilding.
When I first met him, nobody would believe what I am about to say.
DIA EKSYEN!
When I fiest joined the company, I had one of the accountants to take me aroudn and introduced me to everyone. I put out my "hello..." plastic smile to everyone because earlier I heard there was a boo boo made by HR. I was supposed to join a few days later!
I was called in earlier because the person I took over the job from, sort of went MIA.
Whatever happened, there I was, stationed at a cubicle where my fate was sealed. I was officially seated between two other PAs.
Abg Razak was not around when I came. He was almost invisible. The person on my right is Kak Pah. She was this timid and sweet lady that smiled at me whenever I looked her way. To tell you the truth I was confused, because that very same day the secretary who I took over came to work after days of MIA. So the story goes.
Ok la .. things were "handed over" in the most "interesting" way. Yeah. as good as ...might as well have her on MIA.
I managed to study a few things on my own (get the drift?) and askign this and that from my neighbour on the right. The one on the left is... well.. I dont really care about his existence.
A few people came by wanted to send documents and went "Abg Razak mana?". I was still in the middle of "who the hell is that?" and "how the hell should I know" mode. Then I remembered, oh shoot, he's supposed to be my neighbour on the left. Schmucks!
I may look lost and bitter myself in the first few days I was there.
I was actually confused and ACTUALLY lost!
Abang razak apparently did appear after that.. and he minded his business and I minded mine. Even Kak Pah minded hers!
I wasnt even introduced to him properly and in my state of confusion with my messed up and fucked up workstation and even listening about office gossips on my first day, the last thing I wanted to do in those few days were actually to be the friendly fairy.
Then there came the 4th day where the office is celebrating Hari Raya at Restoran Puteri. I dont really know where that is and since everybody is going back after the do, I chose to drive myself. Abang was supposed to receive an award that day and that was when people started telling me of how OTAI he is in the company.
My reaction was.... oh, ok. (<---- eksyen konon)
To cut the story short, today, he is the brother I never had. Yup, things took a 180 degree turn from the moment I met him and even from my previous office. The brother that I relied on for jokes in my blue-est of days. That came with jokes even when I am not blue. My confidante, my clown, my guru on most days.
He is our "lyricist", our tour guide in Bandung and Jakarta, the man who took care of us even masa dekat teambuilding tu like as if we're kids on a school trip!
We had our share of fame (cewah!) at the Fanily Day we organised.
He is the initiator of checking out the headlines of our morning newspapers!
He is our lunch buddy that we miss when he's not around.
He is the guy in our prayers (pray dia selamat dan sejahtera je, takdela sampai pray dapat kahwin/romen dengan dia).
He's the guy that is breaking the heart of someone over and over again unintentionally.
He's getting more "pregnant" by the day hanging out with us.
We love you. All that's to say about you can take the whole night.
Tapi baik aku buat keje lain dari blog pasal abang ni panjang2! ceh....
