Blog nih rasanya akan di"private"kan...

atas sebab2 yang tak dapat dielakkan, gua rasa gua punya blog akan diprivatekan.... (bebudak opis dah jumpa gua punya blog laaa... tambahan pulak kengkawan depa dah mentioned a few times yang depa nampak gambo depa2 kat blog nih...)

dah la mula terasa risau lak kang si "tauke2" kat opis nih terjumpa blog nih pulak kang...

so blog nih akan diprivatekan... kalo rasa2 nak baca, sila anto email ke : jjmusafir@yahoo.com.sg . Jgn ler anto email jer, kasik ler intro sket... siapa tuan punya email, dan dari mana... no hal lah... tujuannya utk mengelakkan bebudak opis baca...

Gua memang baik ati oneee... (ahaks..!!) geng2 Mesia memang gua kasi access one... hahaha...

tarikh "privatisation" blog adalah 1 Ramadan nanti...

ok, ciao cincau...

Mood...

orang dah cuti balik raya... am still working... boringnyer...
a few "interesting" things happened the past few days, but just didn't have the desire/mood to do any blog updates..

so here’s a resume of what happened last week…

1. no more internet surfing in the office

the company has detected that there was a surge of internet traffic during office hours lately… On top of the list of sites visited were :

• beruangmadu.com
• blogspot...
  

you can guess who the culprit is don’t you…? Luckily tak kantoi red handed… hehe. So no more internet surfing in the office after this… kalau kantoi pun, gua tak mengaku salah… Gua akan salahkan si Beruang Madu tuh… abislah lepas nih semua company akan ban dia punya blog… fofular sgt… hehe..

no more Beruang Madu blog reading during opis hours... huaaaa...!!

Yemen - yang kat bawah sebelah kiri tuh, jgn tak tahu lak...

2. to go or not to go….

Am supposed to go to Yemen & Syria after coming back from Raya (in the month of Oct, 14th Oct – Syria, 21st Oct – Yemen)…. Everything is planned – the flights, the hotel, the meetings… however, there have been some bombings lately in Sana’a & Damascus (2 bombings in Sana’a the past 2 or 3 weeks, 1 bombing in Damascus yesterday….). The boss asked me to do a “security check” before going to Yemen & Syria… (check with the Malaysian Embassy in these 2 countries if it is safe to go there)… OK, will do that a few days before the travelling date… hmmm, aku ingatkan Iraq jer yg bahaya (which also falls under my territory), but Yemen & Syria too…. Camna nak buat bisness camni…?

Syria - jgn tak tahu lak lepas nih... Syria nih dekat dgn Lebanon... tempat berperang jugak negara Lebanon tuh

3. Ramadan Bazaar food dah abis…!!

Remember the tonnes of food that I bought during the last Dubai Ramadan Bazaar? Well, they are all eaten… tak membazir. The sad part is that I have finished the whole stock before the end of Ramadan (3 more days to go). No more supply for this week… so boring one… Yesterday, ate the last dish - rendang daging… and since that was the only dish available, had to cook rice & ikan masak asam pedas (with the help of Chef Brahim of course) to eat together with the rendang…. Not bad, the whole combination was very tasty… bak kata Beruang Madu, sedap hingga menjilat siku & bahu… kuang kuang kuang…!!

dah abissssss... cuma tinggal dlm kenangan... keh keh keh...:)

4. Replacement of Marizel – macam sama bangang jer…

The replacement of Marizel, si Amfil has started to take over some of the tasks from Marizel. Utk pegi ke Yemen & Syria nih, gua suruh dia check sama ada gua kena ada Visa atau tidak (atau I can get Visa on arrival, ambik kat airport jer, like in Kuwait)… at the same time, gua check jugak on my side (sebab depa nih tersangatlah cemerlangnya kepantasan bekerja…)… into that I have gotten my side, no need to get Visa in advance from the embassies (Yemen & Syria), can easily get Visa on arrival at Sana’a & Damascus airport. Akan tetapi… jeng jeng jeng… si Marizel came back to me saying that for Yemen, can get Visa on arrival, for Syria must apply Visa in advance…. Aper ke halnya pulak berbeza infos nih… I probed her asking for more infos, who did she talk to? What’s the name of the officer? She called the embassy in Abu Dhabi or the Consulate in Dubai....? maka terbocorlah rahsia… rupanya, dia call Syria embassy & consulate, and couldn’t get hold of anybody, make dia ambik jalan senang mengatakan that I have to apply for the Visa in advance…. Hua… buat undang2 sendiri huh…? Apa dia ingat ini Negara bapak dia aper…? Dia ingat dia pandai, dia tak tahu yg rakan sekerja dia nih lagi pandai dari dia...! kan dah kantoi red handed...? hai... apa “pesen” (fashion) depa kerja nih...? 3rd bad encounter with filipino style of working...

aku tertanya2, depa yg keluar dari negara nih, semua yg kena reject ker by the local filipino companies...? sebab tuh semua kualiti kureng sket... errr, same rule apply for Malaysians here...? eh, maner ader...!! hehe... reject? kena reject ker...?

5. Blogger visit

Last Thu evening, ada fellow blogger singgah Dubai on the way back home. Dia naik EK, transit 10jam… so jumpa fellow blogger tuh, dan bawak dia jalan2 “Dubai by nite”… very fast tour one… 1h30am to 4h00am (tour of old Dubai & new Dubai).. ntah dia Nampak ker tak benda2 yg ditunjuk tengah2 malam buta tuh… jam 4h15am kelam kabut cari makan utk sahur… jangan serik sudah laaa… hahaha…. Btw, Mr Danial Ma, it was a pleasure showing you around….

6. Things to do this week

Gua belum pegi beli buah tangan utk bawak balik Mesia… aiyaaa… have to go out and buy them either this evening or tmrw evening… kalau tak, abislah aku kena halau balik keluar Mesia bila sampai nanti… hahaha….

Counting days....

Tinggai 2 ari ja lagi teman nak balik Dubai.... hepi tak terkata...!!

sebabnya naluri tak sesuai dgn kompeni ni...

• balik dari Mekah ari tuh, ada tender sampai from one of the banks here... gua pun bertungkus lumus lah check the tender doc... closing date hujung Ogos daaa... sebulan lagi... banyak masa depa yg kena tinggai nih settlekan tender respond tuh.... but, but... still went through the docs and prepared whatever that can be prepared now sebelum gua ciao... tak nak lak depa kata gua tak buat keja gua kan.... 3 days ago, passed some of the docs to the COO/acting CEO coz some of the questions are related to Perso Centre Operation, and also needed some technical feedback from him.... guess what? sampai sekarang dia tak baca2 lagi tender doc tuh... COO/acting CEO camni, anak2 buah dlm opis camna...? teman tengok attitude dia camtu, teruih teman stop jap reviewing and preparing the tender doc and update blog ni sat.... leadership by example... lantaklah ko Labu...!!

• hujung bulan lepas kompeni nih bayar gaji lambat again... gua dah kena ciao ke Riyadh, kad kredit payment kat Dubai tak buat lagi... tak sempat... hari nih, bank dah call, awat tak bayaq2 lagi kad tuh...? hmmm... tu lah akibatnya, dpt gaji tak menentu nih... hopefully kompeni nih tak buat sial kat aku bayar gaji lambat lagi bulan ni... siksa camni, semua yg di arrange lari...

• semlm surf internet, ziarah blog2 kengkawan... huih...!! mcm2 ceghita ada...

oklah... kena sambung kerja...

Makan2 Restoran Mutiara - Riyadh

semalam gi jumpa fellow blogger from Riyadh.... si Dendang Perantau : http://perantautimurtengah.blogspot.com/. sajer jer merapatkan silaturrahim... si Dendang Perantau nih dah ada kat Riyadh for slightly more than 6 months... if you wanna know more about him, check out his blog.... macam2 adaaaa....!!

lepas dia dtg ambik kat hotel, with another friend of his, kita org gi dinner kat Restoran Mutiara Malaysia food (masakan Mesia kononnya...) bila tengok menu, dia tulis "Restoran Mutiara Malaysia (masakan Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines dan Indonesia)"... letak waiver lak kat menu, hehehe... owner is apparently a popular ustaz Hassan (popular among the Malaysian community in Riyadh) from Pattani (Thailand)

(gambo curik from http://www.danchan.com/weblog/saorangorang/157587.. hehehe...)

Dendang Perantau ordered ikan masak pedas, tomyan campur, sayur kangkung and udang goreng masak tepung.... and of course nasi putih... sedap weh....!! memang sedap...!! may be coz I have not eaten proper Malaysian food for quite awhile, memang kaw kaw punyer...!! everything was super duper delicious (except udang goreng tepung... terlebih tepung rasanyer...). may be I should go there again while I am here in Riyadh... kat Dubai mana ada resto Mesia lagi dah... bila lagi nak meroyan makan masakan Mesia (errr... Asia Tenggara kut...?)

how much all together? dunno laaa... si Dendang Perantau belanja ler pulak semalam... segan teman dibuatnyer.... budi baik akan dibalas jua nanti, insyaAllah... kat Dubai ker, kat Riyadh ker, atau kat Mesia jer... "hang cakap ja bila kat mana..., cheq settle nya lah...!!"

sori geng, no photos... segan nak ambik gambo... teman nih penyegan sebenonyer... hehehe... may be next time...

Finally!!!

Finally...am putting something into this blog...siksanya, sentiasa sibuk...I am more free now...why? Because I just resigned from the current company that I am with...fuh leganya...memang serik kerojer dgn orang2 Perancis nih. Since I started working, I have always worked with French companies...well, making full use of my French education of course...dapat ler gaji extra sikit...it does help to be able to converse in French if you are working with French companies. Mamat2 Perancis nih bukan kira sangat dgn org2 lain...pada depa, bahasa depalah yang paling terer kat dunia nih...bukan depa kira kalau ada sesapa yang tak boleh cakap bahasa depa, main boh jer, kalau tak paham apa depa cakap, nasib...kalau nak paham, belajo ler bahasa Perancis...tak ker egoistic giler tuh...?! Memang aku menyampah...!!

Tak ler aku tahu yang orang Perancis nih camni...kalau aku tahu, memang aku boikot bahasa Perancis dari dulu lagi...baik aku belajo bahasa lain...hehehe... Tak ler sampai camtu...aku bersyukur yang aku boleh cakap Perancis...at least kalau depa sumpah seranah org2 lain yg tak leh cakap bahasa depa, aku tahu ler...boleh aku moncoi kat depa2 yang lain nih...biar laga2kan depa nih...divide & conquer...hehehe...

Kepada sesapa yang masih terangan2 yg bahasa Perancis nih is d very romantic, is d very beautiful...aku ucapkan takziah...lupakan saja...tak payah belajo bahasa Mat Saleh bodoh nih...kang korang semua jadik bodoh cam depa...sumpah aku tak tipu...hehehe...
