Whoa guess what! I was surfing blogs and found the blog of this other girl whom i've seen at Jitters!! I can't believe she's only 17!!! (fr scgs btw, gotta ask delia if she knows her) I feel oollllddddddddddd.... *blinks rheumy eyes and gropes around for my walking stick* Her nick is sfee (surname chen) and she takes wonderful photos!!! Kenneth! Teach me how to take proper pictures!!!!!
What I'm wondering now is, if she's so young, how old are the rest of them then??? (the rest of them meaning the bunch who hangs out by the mirror and the player) Like ms.mesmerizing-hips for example! (li dubbed her that and we ALL think it's super appropriate!! wait... i think her name's actually deborah or smthing like that. Mesmerizing Hips sounds cooler -grinne-) argh i need to improve improve improve improve imPROVE!!!!! like more sTyLinG and better turns...!
thanks kenneth for giving me ideas as to what i should do during work (other than work! haha!)... blog surfing is so fun! heehee, i've got alll the timmmme in the world to do what i wanna do!!!
not.
This is such a PERFECT example of X-inefficiency!! Leibenstein would be soo happy with me :P
X-inefficiency: Cost that is higher than it needs to be because a firm is operating inefficiently. This is most often seen for firms that have a great deal of market control, especially monopoly. The lack of competition allows a business to pad it's expenses, hire unneeded employees (like relatives), goof off instead of working, and all sorts of other things that lessen production and increase cost. The business is not penalized for these actions, because market control allows the company to extract whatever price is needed to cover cost. ~AmosWEB
I don't think i'm unneeded exactly... I'm just inefficiently allocated! The bank has a lot of work to be done as well as a lot of over-worked employees; however, they don't seem to have had much experience to interns! As such, I've not been allocated any particular responsibilites, just dumped into whatever department and thrown extra work to do (be it filing, photocopying or data entry). Interns are supposed to learn more than temps (which is why temps work less but are paid more), but that is not happening!
Sigh... I really shouldn't bitch about my work so much :P other ppl have it worse! Makes me feel quite ashamed as there are dozens of desperately unemployed ppl out there who would give anything to be in my position yet here i am, bored out of my mind and slacking as much as i can!! Not that i'm a slacker, just that lately, it's been getting harder and harder for them to find stuff for me to do that i find i've been dragging out whatever work they do give so as to let enough time pass for more work to accumulate for me to do before i ask for it :S
hmmm... i wonder if i can find more salsa peepz around... =)
