Title.

Week seven of Mattel.


This week, horrid. Loads of crap happening. And more crap awaits on Monday. Haish. Anyway, there was a funny point to the madness. Here's the situation, there's a sample product due to be delivered to the office, and everything was out, the order, the invoice all of it - but the product never show. So after a short frantic search around the office, finally had to refer to the warehouse to as whether the product actually was delivered.

After an email sent, here was the conversation between me and the warehouse boss:

Me : Boss, got this one sample order that never made it to the office la, can you check whether it was sent, or we just lost it in the office?

W.B : OK, will get my people to check on it later.

Me : Can send Monday morning ar?

W.B: Why? Urgent is it? Can can, if we can find out what's the problem - i'll get it delivered Monday morning.

Me : Oh, we need it for a photoshoot, the photographer coming in the afternoon to pick it up.

W.B : Oh. Can can. I will ask my driver to make-up a bit also so he can take picture.

Hahahahahaha. Yes, i was laughing out loud in the office and practically everyone stared at me. At least it was a good way to end the weekend.

Next week, store's closed. At least virtually. And there's a short window of time on Monday before we're closed for inventory check, routine stuff. The thing is though - i will be super swamped. Actually had to leave late on Friday to clear out a whole stack of orders. No, it's not fun - it's just frantic actually.


That all aside, i need a hair-cut. Which i will have, after this post is posted. And oh, today ah boy was in the house. He asked me to buy him a track wo. What the hell? He said "the track ar, round and round and round (X1231times)" while he himself spinning around. Damned funny nut. And he pronounces "dinosaur" as "disonaur". I got him to try pronouncing it the right way, but after a few tries, he smiled this wicked smile - and ran off. Hahahaha. Shit.


Jas is off touring Europe. Apparently going to meet PC as well. I have no idea, i though she's coming back, albeit for a while - and texting europe isn't cheap wei. Shit. To those people i know in Europe - sorry la, i'm just a lowly intern earning not too much and i really really dont have the resources to text you, let alone call. For those in America - lagi la sorry. Lol.


Anyways, that's it i guess. Just that i can't discuss the crap that happenedat work, and it took up so much of the week - and a chunk of my life. Hahahaha. But it's all good now (i hope). You people take care now.

Cheers!
