still waiting

the interview went well, i actually got the job, but with just an average pay.... but i'm sure i'll gain alot of experience compared to where i am now... so, i can't do anything (resign, move out) yet cause i haven't gotten the offer letter stating in detail of the job and it's T&C.
the guy were supposed to email me the documents, me print it out, sign it and fax it back to them... but up till the phone interview on wed, i haven't gotten the papers.... sigh... (wonder if they changed their minds?)
hmm.....

4th time!

sigh.... and i thought that phone call from the manager would be "the one" to know if i got the job or not.... looks like it's not.... he said that my customer service was good and he liked it but unfortunately, i lack of technical skills.. so he gave me "homework" to do... gave me some topics to "learn".. more of like research and today (wed) he'll call again to test me... sigh....
it's like back to college days, had to find for my old notes, books and back to researching on the net. i did manage to find the info he wanted but am not sure if that is what he wants... he'll be calling today after work to "test" me..
i'm just kinda tired that it takes so long, if i'm good enough, good but if i'm not, just say it, why put ppl at the edge? but what's really sad is that they're giving me 2k ONLY!... and after paying EPF, it leaves 1700... so how am i to survive in KL with that money? i need to rent a place, travel, food (limited rice and gravy type of food), toilteries and all the hoo haa.. where enough!!!
having a big headache...
one of my manager said not to take if they give u 2K. some of my close friends asked me, you want MONEY or EXPERIENCE? of course i want experience.... but how to survive with that much, no savings, no extra for emergencies, can't pay insurance... here in penang, though my job is considered stagnant and it's "nothing" i'm saving HALF of my pay.... HALF!!! can u beat that? i think in KL, with 1700.. i'll be OWING ppl... can't even save 10 bucks... what future would i have? a future with no savings...
so i'm in a delima... it'll be easier if i was told i didn't get the job.... sigh...

the countdown begins

i had the second call today, at work... and the "manager" wanted to have the phone interview then and there... i told him i couldn't do the interview at that moment, but will be free at 5pm. so now, i'm counting down till 5pm...

am so scared now.... the guy sounded nice though, but then again, he's the manager... so...

aaaahhhhh!!!

shouldn't have come

at the interview, it went ok, though i was just average on the test for the position i applied for but the guy said he'll help me out for another dept, it was fine with me... as long it's a job there... anyway, i don't know what position was this guy in but he wasn't the one interviewing me... they have to review my tests and resume again for a 2nd interview...
he found out that i was from penang and was surprised that i came all the way to take the test, he said, should have done it over the phone... but after taking the test, it will be very hard to take the test over the phone.. it had comprehension and calculation questions, how la to do this over the phone?
so, for now, just have to wait and see if they'll call back on monday or tuesday for the 2nd phone interview...
wish me luck!!
i'm still nervous on the thought of moving to KL.....

we got 1st class!

hahah my dad, now since he's a pensioner, he's really making use of it. ever since he got a pensioners card, he's been trying his best to find cheaper prices, be it for movies, or at toll gates, or for travelling. and now it did work!
so for my train trip, my dad managed to get 1st class sleeping berth for two! and it comes with "refreshments" with a waiter! hahahah ... it seems, the original price for normal ppl would be RM162 but because of my dad's wonder card, he only paid RM62! not for each but for both of us, for the berth actually. so for RM162, i wondered will be as grand as the price? or will it be a let down? knowing it's a local KTM train.
train will leave at 9+pm something. am actually excited but nervous as well, what if i didn't get through the test? it'll be such a waste of time and well, my hopes to go to KL will dissapear... oh well, i'll go with what i have and just make the best of it....
gosh will be DEAD tired when i get home and get to work on sunday..... O_O

Hello there!

so i'm due for the test cum interview on saturday. am really scared. not scared about if i get it or not, i'm actually scared if i GET IT, cause if i do, i got to MOVE to KL...!!!
i know i've been wanting to go to KL since i left school but i'm so used to do everything here in penang that i may be TOO comfortable here... but anyway, i'll have to wait and see if i actually passed the test and see what they have to offer me.
staying in KL is abit more expensive than in penang and i can't save as much.... sigh...
wish me luck!
