H Government Agency - Jurong Branch
I had been working in H government agency for 11 years. Initially I was posted to one of the branch office in Jurong as a Customer Service Officer. There was another lady posted to the same office as me, she is called JX, a quiet girl, everyone treated her like an angel.
Everything was fine until 1 months later, she was re-assigned to work backend as admin support. She cried and complained in front of me during our lunch break. She said she love doing Customer Service job even though her character does not fit in her well. Few days later after her posting, our big boss talked to us to find out whether we were doing fine. As a newbie in the workforce, I told boss everything about what happen to JX and they should not post her elsewhere without asking for her preference. Next day, boss told me actually JX was very happy with the arrangement and she did not cried. I questioned JX and she can’t answered me why she did that. This was my first time being back-stabbed by an "angel". Don’t assume quiet lady is kind, you never know.
Uma is a rich lady with no children and her husband dotes on her. Everyday without fail, she will wear rings (diamond, jade, precious stone,etc) on her 10 fingers, thick necklaces and bracelets. She loves to show off her jewelleries to the other female colleagues. Her work performance is bad, managers always told her off but she does not bother at all. New comers like me will feel strange, when we ask her since she is so rich why she still want to work, her reply is she came to work to kill time.
2 months later, I was posted to Finance Department as there will be 2 ladies going on maternity leave. I hate math, therefore going to Finance Department was a tortured to me. Everyday the final amount will not tally. The assistant finance supervisor was not helpful at all, everyday on the dot he will chase us out of office as he needs to rush to his coffee-shop to help out. This was not the only case, there were many other government officers doing the same thing. They will registered the company under someone else name, so that they will not get caught.
Finally I could not stand it anymore and soon I was posted to another branch in the central, doing backend admin.
H Government Agency - Central Branch
Jessie is a 40 plus single lady with weird temper. One moment she can be nice to you, the other moment her face can turn black and you better don't go near her. This is her first job and first office, therefore being in the same job for more than 30 years, she is very capable in her job scope. She had a chance to promote to supervisory role but she reject the offer. She is one of those senior staffs whom is very reluctant and can’t accept changes.
Halimah and Habibah loves taking MC and urgent leave every week. Their filing and work were always in a big mess. Files supposed to be under number 12 can either go to 1, 2 or 21. Every time when files were missing from the original place, all admin staffs got to help searching for it. Halimah progress well over the years, from admin support to call agent and now she is well knowledge in policies. As for Habibah, she always said she's old and expect people to do her work, few years later she took the special scheme.
Bahriah is a scary and scheming lady. She was always on the guard against those who are capable in work. She was jealous of Halimah which Halimah herself do not know why. Halimah’s husband had third eyes that can see what normal people can't see. Halimah husband told her there were evil black magic in the house and it was getting more and more evil which he can't get rid anymore and need someone more professional than him. When the lady went to their house, the lady told her that Bahriah was very jealous of her and this was not the first time she spell cast on her. I do not know how true the story is, I just listen and pretend I do not know anything so that I will not get into any trouble with them.
S is a very disgusting fellow. He is a handicapped and works as an office boy. I'm not biased against handicapped person but the way he do things does not deserve our respect. There was once he came office in a hurry as he was having diarrhoea, we don't understand why he can't go straight to the toilet instead went to his workstation first. He can't control it anymore and dirty the carpet and stink the whole office. The office cleaner whom do not have a temper, was very angry as he dirty the whole toilet even the wall. He hanged his undies after washing at 1 of the staff bicycle, when the guy noticed it, he scolded him like hell. He don't feel sorry at all and likes to take advantages because of his disabilities.
He like to steal newspaper from the recreation room and whenever people wants to read it during lunch hour it’s gone. He will keep it behind the photocopying machine and thought no one knew about it. 1 day Bahriah told us she printed out a message stating "You are being watched" and placed it in the middle of the newspaper.
He is a dirty old man, like looking at women as if he never see women in his life before, so Bahriah and Jessie teach me to stare back angrily at him so that he will know I can’t be bully. Sometime he thought we will not noticed that he was looking at us, we will without any signal, suddenly turn our head and stare at him fiercely. Everyday he will went missing, my supervisor will scold him and until one day few of the male colleagues tailed him and found out the truth. He will go look for a lady that offer sex services at cheap rate, either at her home or car-park.
I prefer to work with this batch of colleagues. 2 years later, H government agency offered a special scheme resignation. The package was very attractive and many of my colleagues took the offer and leave. There were new colleagues coming in and there were worse than the first batch.
Zaili was the only guy in admin and he’s single. He is nice and hardworking guy. He lives nearby, so we like to ask him to cover our duty on Saturday.
Nora was actually doing architectural work but came to admin as her department closed down. She can’t work at all. Everyday she will stick to her chair, munching on foods and chit chatting on phone. Few months later, she went on maternity leave. After she’s back from maternity leave, she got herself pregnant again and was gone for another few months. Her rank was higher than Jessie but she always push work to Jessie or Zaili. There was also rumours spreading around that Nora like Zaili.
Few months before I requested for transfer, came the new admin supervisor Hamidah. She was a bias, siding Zaili and Nora. Out of the sudden, Nora work performance can jump from grade C to B. Hamidah mouth will never rest, she will either be munching food or chit chatting.
I was lucky that the boss approved my transfer application as I always wanted to work in HQ and also a change of job scope. Within a month after the approval, I reported to the newly created division and this was where my nightmare began.
