My Little Mishap

Date November 25, 2007

First off, note the new poll on the side :) Thank you for your contribution! Yes, I have orange and carrot juice on my cloths. I know I shouldn’t have forgotten my bib at home! You see, today is a special day. My gym routine has gotten an upgraded and my time has been increased [...]

Deadline

Date September 5, 2007

I have been thinking quite a bit about the things that I like to do. None of them involve following a schedule and meeting deadlines. I’m working on a project at work. I have lost inspiration to keep working at it. It is tedious. I have to do (sort of) weekly reports. I also have [...]

Nosey People

Date August 1, 2007

Don’t you just hate nosey people, especially at the office? What is with those who just stand there, stare at you do your work, or stare at your computer screen. I’ve had my share of encounters with nosey people and it seems you just have to draw the line with some people. Earlier, I was [...]

Hot, Hot, Hot.

Date July 31, 2007

I work in the very top floor in the building. Recently construction started, and they have begun from the top and will continue down the building. I can’t explain the details of what they are doing but so far they have ripped the windows out and replaced them with a thick cardboard. It is getting [...]

Why I Prefer A Shaved Head

Date July 26, 2007

The place where I work has a formal dress code. Being one of the few Kuwaitis, and also because of the nature of the place, I prefer to dress in a dishdasha with a ghutra and agal. Because of the gahfiya under the ghutra, the hair has usually been pressed for long hours, so it [...]

Elevator Scent

Date July 21, 2007

I love going up and down in the building. There are only two elevators and usually customers are always coming in, up and down! Every time I go into an elevator it smells different! ?Sometimes it has this bukhour and dihn 3oud scent, I love that. At other times I smell pure coffee, and the [...]

Under the Weather

Date July 17, 2007

I am currently sick with the flu and tonsillitis. It sure doesn’t feel good. There is a tip I would like to share with you. If you’re ever sick and want to get a sick leave. Don’t go to the Dr in the evening, go in the morning. Morning Drs can give you two days [...]

Work: Investigating, the fun part.

Date July 9, 2007

Good Morning to you all. How would you go about documenting a massive work flow? The main purpose surrounding my work is to collect information and organize it into a decent documentation as I have mentioned earlier in my posts. The past few weeks I got around to doing that for a simple small portion [...]

What’s in a Name?

Date July 4, 2007

I’ve been at the new job for about a week. I also haven’t had that much interaction with many of the employees here — let alone having to know everyone’s name. This is me a few minutes ago: I received a call from M who wants me to bring him a disk with specific information. [...]

No documentation!

Date June 23, 2007

When was the last time you referred to or used the documentation at work, about how to get things done around the place? I’d bet that some if not ALL businesses have no such documentation that detail exactly what the business process is. The place I’m currently working at is quite reputable offering services to [...]
