Past two weeks

So many things happen for the past 2 weeks….
1)My HP Laptop crashed. It has only been with me for less than 3 years. I went to HP service center and was told to spend RMb3900 to fix the motherboard. I find it ridiculous to spend that amount, thus decide to make do with hubby’s old laptop. Anyway, don’t think I got the luxury of time to surf internet, once I started my work.

2) I started work on 3rd Aug. I enjoyed my first week of work, meeting new colleagues, attending meetings with developers, brainstorming new strategies, observing office politics etc etc…Imagine I can already feel the environment can be quite political in my first week! Anyway, it does not help to be a corporate angel, however I know I can never be a bitch. Thus better equip myself with more skills to avoid all these unnecessary games.

3) I could not find my original degree certificate. It is not in Beijing, my parents cannot find them back home, and my work permit was rejected by the labour bureau. Goodness, it is already my 3rd job in china, and I don’t encounter problems getting it done before. They don’t recognize my post-graduate diploma in mktg mgmt (they thought it is JUST a training cert). I have already started work for 1 week, but company told me last Friday that they are unable to continue my employment until this matter is resolved. I called my parents on Saturday, telling them their daughter is going to be temporarily out of job again ;(
1 hour later, they called me telling me they found my certificate stuck under my bedroom’s drawer! *phew*…. A big Lesson learnt. I vowed to learn to be more tidy. (I have been very untidy for the past 3X years) and keep the important documents properly.
