Pretty Rude? ^_^

 
I emailed this message to a colleague (a new hire, actually) after the incident in my prior post.  Just want to share how I showed my rudeness (me bad..hehehehe).
 
Well, I guess that my way of saying "Nobody messes with Melay!"
 
Good day!

Have a nice day,
Melay

Subject: Hi!

Hi Fritz!
 
Today is my last day in this company so basically, this station is all yours until my replacement arrives.
 
I woke up early this morning, happy and excited, packing my stuff.  I went here in the office, and as usual, started this pc.  As this booted into OS, I realize the icon of my messenger changed.  I opened it and violah! MSN turned into Windows Live Messenger, not the version that I've been using for one year, two months, and fifteen days.  It is actually fine, but I have some important features that are only useful with MSN.  I suppose you have something to do with this, as you're the only one who uses this station.
 
If you haven't noticed yet, I uninstalled both messengers.  I also uninstalled all the tools I was using that might be very helpful for you.  I hope you don't mind.  After all, you didn't mind it when you installed Windows Live Messenger, did you?
 
A word of advice: search.
-->  Search for files, directories, programs, or applications before doing anything, which might be nasty to other people.
 
Anyway, good luck!
 
Oh!  Before I forget, please mind your internet usage.  Not that I know you have a big usage, but I just want to remind you.  Friendly advice only.  We don't want the admin to call PSW's attention, do we?  ITS is tracking the usage, I guess they already told you in your orientation.  I guess they also told you new hires about the termination history of an employee before due to his high internet usage.  Just have a clean record. OK?
 
Regards,
Melay

Last Day, not a good start in the office

Today's my last day here in the company (tomorrow, actually...but i'll be on leave tomorrow). I started the day early since I still have to pack some of my remaining stuffs. I was actively arranging my things, happy and excited. Then I went here in the office early.

Well, i didn't have a good start in the office. As I boot my system up, and into OS, I noticed my messenger icon changed. When I logged in, I noticed it's a different application. My night shift partner installed Windows Live Messenger and my MSN was overwritten. To my anger, I deleted both MSN and Windows Live Messenger, and all the other tools that I've been using that might also be helpful for him. That includes my windows index search app, PDF maker, and post it app. I also uninstalled added features for some of the default applications. In addition to this, I deleted all my installers. grrrrrr...

My last day and not so good! Fortunately, my fiance will meet me this afternoon. I hope this will change my mood for today.

Character Tests


I've come accross a blog of a college classmate and seen one of those "what character are you" tests. Since I'm a fan of Death Note, I tried it. Here's the result.

Your Score: ISTJ
You scored 70% introversion, 21% intuition, 57% thinking, and 71% judging!
ABOUT THE TEST
This personality test is heavily based on the Kiersey Sorter. In essence, it measures your personality across four variables: Introversion-Extraversion, Intuition-Sensing, Thinking-Feeling and Judging-Percieving. There are both positive and negative attributes to each of the traits.
Introversion-Extraversion: Generally, people who score high on "introversion" are reserved, quiet people who keep to themselves whereas people who score low on "introversion" are outgoing, friendly people who are extraverts.
Intuition-Sensing: People who score high on "intuition" are guided by gut instinct, they go on intuition as opposed to people who score low on this trait, who prefer to rely on established fact and their senses, rather than their own belief.
Thinking-Feeling: People with high scores on "thinking" rely more on their head to make decisions, whereas people who score low on "thinking" rely more on their heart to guide them. (Note: this has no bearing on a person's intelligence level; it merely refers to the way in which they make desicions.)
Judging-Percieving: People who score high "judging" are firm, decisisive people, whereas people who score low on this trait are flexible, accomodating people.
YOUR RESULTS
Stats: Approximately 12% of population.
DN characters with this type: Soichiro Yagami, Mogi, Teru Mikami.
In a nutshell: "Doing what should be done."
Desciption: Serious and quiet, interested in security and peaceful living. Extremely thorough, responsible, and dependable. Well-developed powers of concentration. Usually interested in supporting and promoting traditions and establishments. Well-organized and hard working, they work steadily towards identified goals. They can usually accomplish any task once they have set their mind to it.

It worked! Hahaha!

Last Week, Ashamed

Don't get me wrong there. "Last week" and "ashamed" are different stories.

Well, this is my last week here in the company. Next week will be the start of my jobless journey (but the beginning of being a full-time mom..hehehe). But what the heck! This is only my last week in the company, not my last week being alive. Hehehe. So why not enjoy my last moments here in Cebu.

Second thing, I watched "Rated K" by Korina Sanchez last night. The topic was about being ashamed. Well, there was one topic about obesity. They were as if in a rally or something, shouting: "Bakit ako mahihiya?" (Why should I be ashamed?) Well, that kept me thinking..^_^

Globe, Noypi!

I almost forgot what to blog about today. It's a good thing I happen to pass by the Globe Telecom building here in IT Park, on my way back to the office.







First off, Globe's new logo.


Have you seen the so-called news broadcasts of ABS-CBN since Saturday? Mysterious signs were appearing all over the Philippines. Last night was the unmasking of the reason why those "signs" were created. At first, I thought it was the new station ID of ABS-CBN. But then again, at the end of the presentation, it was after all, the launching of Globe's new logo. I'd say, it's looks better than the previous one. I just hope the services also get better. hehehe. But with the presentation of Globe's services as a whole, two words can describe it -- "Simple" yet "Amazing".

Second stop is the TV show entitle "Noypi! Ikaw ba 'to?" with host, Gabe Mercado. This is the reason why I stayed up very late last night, and now, I'm feeling a little dizzy. hehehe.

Anyway, last night's the first episode of their month-long anniversary celebration. The show featured Nikki (of Going Bulilit) as a streetchild, Yayo and William Martinez as couples who's living depends on plastics and boxes, and Joross as a person with skin disease.

I was really touched to see that inspite of growing crimes here in the Philippines, there are still good Samaritans who are willing to help those who need. (I salute them!) But there are just some people who have no heart at all, and that immediately judge other people by the way they look. *sigh But at least, there are still good people, right? And it's a reason to live harmoniously. (Charr!)

Leaving

As everybody knows, I'm leaving, and just counting the days. It's sad to let go of something that made me happy for a period of time, and helped me a lot to grow. But, that's life.

Anyway, what made this flight amazingly happy is the statement my mentor gave me, infront of the Verifications Team. In my resignation, I stated that I will be moving back to my hometown, Kidapz. But I think she forgot. hehehe

She told me, it's hard to let me go (I guess with my more than a year's experience, I became valuable...hehehe). And what's funny is that she proposed that I can do part-time job with NCR. She kept on talking - that she's also doing part-time job with the company, and that it is also feasible. Not until she stopped that I explained everything to her. I told her: "Sue, I'm leaving Cebu for good." And we were all laughing.

Off the record, I know I'm gonna miss my job, as well as my officemates.
