Life gives me lemons, always.

朝早聽到收音機話Lougheed 延伸到Broadway 總共有兩段路封左, 所以我決定行Hastings. 結果用左整整一個鐘頭先番到公司; HATE IT!!

番到公司, 坐低左一陣, 收到Cindy C 嘅email, 話"Ms. 笑裡" 會去做番佢份舊工(= 我而家份工), 所以唔知我會點. 初初我都覺得無乜所謂, 覺得只係佢放棄左份so-called 高級D 嘅工, 做番R9, 然後我又被人moved around 咁嗟! 過左一陣, 女波士過嚟叫我入去佢office 傾野, 我都不以為意, 暗地慶幸好在Cindy 同我備左案, rather than 我唔知發生乜事咁被人召左入去. 點知, 女波士話"Ms. 笑裡" 係可以跟Union 嘅規例, within 3 個月裡面選擇番去之前份工, 而本來接左佢份工果個人(= ME) 就要回復番之前嘅status. 簡單D 講, 我被人由PERMANENT "鄧" 番落CASUAL. 簡直有如被人宣判了死刑一樣. 重點感受:

1. Yes, again, my bitter life. 如果我想喊, 唔係因為無左依份甚麼甚麼MSP Billing 嘅工; 而係, out of 成個office 咁多個(= 4, 5 個) 上左岸嘅Casuals, 我係最最最早開始做果個囉! 結果, 默默付出了年半, 我唔係第一個上岸做Permanent, 卻係第一個被人推番落海! 有無咁黑仔啊?! HUH?! 老實講, 就算Union 有例, 但係有幾多人升左職之後會無啦啦要求番去之前份工? 而又點解會係"佢"?! 點解搵著我嚟搞?! 點解佢地有幾個人做左幾個月就穩穩陣陣坐正Permanent 嘅位; 而我, 年半之後結果係番番去原位?! 我都有阿媽生架! 我都有勤力過架! :(

2. 昌媽is my 2nd 剋星; 如果成個chain involves 多幾個人, 係咪佢賠啊?! 痴線. And now I know why she was so 好笑容yesterday; 原來已經一腳將我伸左去老遠我都未知. 第二次喇! 有無D 咁嘅人啊?!

3. 年半以來Union 有保障過我嗎? 果個so-called Factory Worker 連續兩年加薪, 幅度超過50% 啊! Not to mention the decent, sweet OT pay and 100% chiropractor coverage, & free lunch & free parking & LIGHT workload! 我交左年半union dues 之後得到嘅係原地轉左10 個圈啊!!!

吃了有史以來最難食的Tuna Sub 做lunch; 是我的口太苦嗎? 臨出去食lunch 唔知點解"營" 住出面係陰天, 點知原來出面陽光普照... 原來世界週圍依然放晴, 只係我心裡面係陰天. 苦, 好苦. And guess what, on such a day for me, somebody else is making decent OT pay for no reasons, at a time like this in the year!

I thought I would have dedicated more lines to my meeting with Kelly; yet, I ain't in the mood. Anyway, it's such a pleasure to see you, after 16 years!! And it's kinda surprising that we could actually recognize each other! You speak such good Cantonese; I was kinda scared that I would need to speak English for the whole night. It's nice to realize we've so many things in common, though you are a crazy PhD student gal while I'm a dumb kid. Let's keep in touch.

我估我D 小學同學開始懷疑點解以前會係我依條廢柴考第一而唔係佢地=_=". 邊個知道點解記住話我知.
