Monday. One word says all. I got a full class today. Meaning I got like 20 Pax. Halfway through, my sales told me, I got 22 guys. I just stood there looking at her and she obviously did not see my eye brow twitch. I set up my class for 20 pax that means having 11 routers (10 for them and 1 for me). We (my beloved company) does not have any spare routers. even if we do have it, I can't connect any more because there's just 10 serial connections to one core router. This would mean the extra two guys would not be able to participate in my class because they have no PC to use and no routers to configure. Needless to say, the extra two were hopping mad. Then after a few phone calls (and lots of dead brain cells later), we found out that the Human Resource on the customer's site was at fault. Apparently, the HR sent the wrong memo to the two. The two gentlemen (even after they were boiling mad, they were still pretty much in control), were "ordered" to leave by the HR Head of Department.

Yesterday, I went for a church visitation and visited a church that I haven't been in a long time, City Discipleship Presbyterian Church (CDPC). Good to visit the kids again, I missed the people there and the kids. I felt so touched when the kids remembered me. The people there, very warm and very friendly (made me feel so fuzzy inside). I went there with my girl and another female friend.

I ate quite a fair bit on food yesterday (heavy breakfast, heavy lunch and afternoon tea and then dinner). By the way, the time difference between the heavy breakfast and heavy lunch meal was only 45 minutes difference. Oh boy, I feel a bit bloated this morning. Sigh. Penance later on I'm sure.

Joke of the day (actually I've heard this one before but it's nice so I'll post it up)



IMPACT OF JOB-CHANGE

A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop window.

For a second everything went quiet in the cab, and then the driver said:
"Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!".

The passenger apologized and said, "I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much."

The driver replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver - I've been driving a van carrying dead Bodies for the last 25 years .
