Case 1

“I’m so in need for a haircut today, it’s messy,” Chris said.
“Glad you noticed,” was my immediate response.
“I’ve created a monster here.”

Case 2

The printer cartridge seems to not working out well after one week in action.

“What have you done Faizal?” my boss was asking.
“It was a team effort Puan, me and Chris.”
“Enlighten me on that.”
“I took the cartridge out from the box. He pulled the string off the cartridge. Then, I put the cartridge into the printer. Walla, it’s working well. Okay, at least for one week.”
“He’s monster in the making, I wonder from whom he learned all this,” while looking directly at Chris.


There's so much respect in this room (my boss and teammates were all quite sensible). Hence, we are allowed to make jokes of each other. Maybe we appeared rude to certain people (who can’t accept the jokes we made), on which I apologize.

Well, at least I’m not the one who approves my own pay rise*.


*MP’s 10 percents pay rise, which is still not enough according to some of them. Mind you, they just received a pay rise 2 years ago.
