29 more days to go...

It has been almost a month now since I've tendered my resignation.
As the days get closer I feel sad to leave my friends.
Although the period of time we have been together is only a short 7-8 months but some how I feel very sadden with the fact that I am leaving them.

Today a very good friend and colleague has left. Veke Mama thats what everyone calls him. Without him I think the team I managing would be up side down and I'd be managing nothing. Without him the team is incomplete. I truly respect him for all the effort and work he has done for the team especially the dedication, attitude and responsibility he has towards to the team and all his friends.

Veke if you are reading this, Brakes is incomplete without YOU!
Alvin Ong will be managing nothing without you in Brakes!
But like Harith says, "Lepak lar... cari makan..."
I wish you all the best in your new job and that we will be able to meet up still in the future!

Sincerely
Alvino

Review: Arimino - Spice Sisters Freeze Wax

As the title says its a review about Arimino hair wax. You guys may or may not remember that I did write something about a hair product as well. It was about L'oreal Cosmic Mud.

After moving to KL I decided to find a good hair stylist to cut my hair. Reason was simply because it was hard for me to always go back to Penang at the right time to just cut my hair. So I went to this place called Infinity at Bandar Puteri Puchong. I've been there twice and both the times he did the same style but thats not the main point.
Sorry for going astray but thats what noob bloggers do :P

As mentioned Arimino Spice Sisters Freeze Wax is the topic in discussion. Name also very weird right? Who in the right mind would buy a product like this!?!?!? That's me :) It was actually introduced by the hair stylist from Infinity. Comparing this product with the L'oreal Cosmic Mud it actually like the Arimino better. Reason is very very simple, L'oreal Cosmic Mud will make my hair very oily and it is very hard for me to get rid of the oiliness. This has been my only concern using it. Arimino on the other hand does not have that effect. Even using water I can wash it off already. Moreover it has a fresh fruity smell to it. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I'd give the L'oreal Cosmic Mud a 7 and the Arimino a 9.





Well... probably this post will not interest any of you but what do I care :P It's my freaking blog.

Hehe... the above is to see if I attract more visitors by annoying people.

Cheers.

Humpty Dumpty Sat On The Wall

This is definitely not a fairy tale :)

Well the story I have to tell has its similarities.
Imagine this... In a company you have your different level of people.
You have the senior manager followed by the floor manager then by team leaders and then the agents. There are supporting groups like the process managers as well.
As you would have known, I have actually handed in my resignation letter. To my surprise there were not much talks about retaining me to my amazement and a lot of the guys in the company as well. Nevertheless, I wouldn't have taken the counter even if there was one.
Anyway there are 3 team leaders at the moment, 1 of them is me, which 2 have resigned and 1 is desperately looking for a job despite joining the company for only a short period. There are rumors that my boss was sighted coming out from quite a new but famous company nearby our office. On top of that, more than 75% of the agents are looking for a job.
Damn I know I am not a good story teller but it does sound like Humpty Dumpty don't you agree? And its going to have a great fall. God knows if they are able to stick "Humpty Dumpty" back again.
