L4 Blues
I tried to ignore it but I just can't. That guy is an L4, and those answers just don't fit the level. How he can report to all of us without knowing his numbers, or more so, without knowing his business, is beyond my comprehension. "I don't know" and "nothing" are just unacceptable.
He's probably getting twice what I'm receiving, for crying out loud! It would be quite demoralizing if he gets to be regularized without any drastic improvements.

Welcome June!
I am welcoming June by blogging in bed using the iPod Touch. I should be getting up to prepare to go to work. Should. Well, I'm still here dilly dallying.
I didn't realize that the Online Ops' outing at Punta Fuego was tiring until we arrived in Manila late Saturday night. I am grateful that we had to take a detour to drop off Mhaan in Sucat or we would have been so stressed by the SLEX Skyway construction. As soon as I dropped off Crystal and Darryl in ABS-CBN, I immediately headed to City Lifestyle for a nice soothing masage. The following day, I napped until 5 in the afternoon.
The whole event was fun. I'm thinking if we could do more day trips again with the team.

Online Operations invades Punta Fuego
Now what you're about to see here is a Rotten Boy video. Dennis and I, together with the Online Operations team (well, at least those who can pay for P40.00), did a day trip to Punta Fuego for our unofficial company outing. Yes, you read that right - it's unofficial. That's because we're doing some belt-tightening measures so cannot afford to go out on an outing this year.
Check out the video and don't forget to put your comments!

Style versus Substance
I knew that it wasn't going to be alright but I had to see for myself if my yellow Nike Zoom Victory would be OK to wear again for my run. These are the dreaded running shoes that gave me an injury and made me stop running for a while to recover.
What was I thinking, right? Well, it's plain and simple - the pair fits quite well with my full Nike outfit. And when I say full Nike outfit, I mean it's the whole shebang - Nike+ shorts, Nike + iPod system, Nike running socks and a yellow sleeveless Livestrong dri-fit shirt. Now wouldn't you say that that is perfect?
So I ran twice last week wearing the whole get-up. On the first night, it was OK. There was actually no pain on my left foot. I did a nice three-kilometer run to break the ice. Come the second night, the pain came after a little more than a kilometer. So my planned five-kilometer ran had to be cut really short as I walked home slowly so that I won't injure myself further.
Learning my lesson not to compromise anything on my running shoes, I went back to my Mizuno Wave Precision 9 for tonight's run. The first instant my foot hit the ground, I knew that I made the right decision. The cushioning was perfect and my feet didn't feel cramped inside the shoes. I was actually enjoying the run.
I'm never going back to the Nikes again. (Well, at least for running shoes.)Labels: ateneo, iPod, mizuno, nike, running

Post Holy Week Shock
Wow! What a shocker!
Coming from a nine-day holiday break, going to work yesterday was a big shock to my system. At just 3:00 p.m., I was so sleepy that I had to go to the food stalls to get a recharge.
So how was your first day at work after the Holy Week break?Labels: life, office
