Dear Golongan Atasan,

I know we don’t have allocation for this activity, in fact we have none for anything fun. I know everybody is super busy (accept me) that they don’t have time for little diversion. I know we love our office so much and proud of everything relates to it: our parking lots, our lifts, our hall, our in-house band etc. I know, who doesn’t love fried mee hoon and infamous chicken rice right? Well, I know I pay little, so little that my lunch can easily be fancier. Emm I guess you know me.

Let me be frank here. 1stly, I felt embarrassed just to spill the news to my hubby knowing he will express his amusement in a so-not-funny way. Then, I had a hard time explaining to my son why we went to school on Saturday, why there will be no splashing in the pool or beach after that. Why Abah is not joining us because of the obvious reason. And I didn’t even bother to tell family members that we had family day, it was just ‘work’ during weekend.

Yeah, may be its just me. After working more +-10 bloody years here, I think I deserve someplace nicer for what you call ‘Family Day’, even if it means that I have to pay. Seriously, I am willing to pay!. And I strongly believe others will agree with me. How else to say thank you in a simplest way to your staff? To let us know that we are appreciated if not needed. Well, knowing the crowd we had, I know it’s not easy to satisfy everyone, but it’s pretty harmless asking. And you don’t even have to do the dirty job.

Apparently, many divisions have their own ‘proper’ and much satisfied family day (explained clearly why they didn’t bother to join this one). What does it mean then? Nak joli joli katak tanpa certain bosses? And my own division after much suara sumbang, already agreed to arrange another family day somewhere next year… yieeha for that. But then, I think this is not healthy. It’s like when the parents can’t provide, children will go on separate way. Oh well, well, why am I worried for things beyond my weight.

Emm apapun, I joined anyway, to give support to the AJKs. I respect them for putting their face up albeit the mess, the awful words received and the ridiculous tight budget to work with: big claps to you guys. And I felt so lucky that during my terms, we managed to go to Langkawi and Melaka, just to compare.


Iman layan Padang.


Tolong jaga anak gebus dan main teng teng.

What with all the bebelan Dd. Office Family Day is just old fashioned! Log on to AA and after few clicks you’re confirmed to travel anywhere you wish. That easy and that affordable kan. Yeah, I admit I’m old. Old enough to love and cherish convoy beramai-ramai to some destination, to imagine my son had a great time playing with kids his age, rebut gula-gula, baling2 bola while me sitting aside simply gossiping or admiring sipolan punya handbag, bini orang itu lawa, anak dia comel, sopannya keluarga itu..bla..bla..bla… I’m old fashioned, enough said.

PS – I got Pensonic blander. Bersyukur.. bersyukur….amin…amin…..
