nothing to blog

i usually have lots of things to blog but when morning comes i usually forget most of them, and am left with nothing to blog. i must remember to jolt the topics down.
come to think of it, all this could be because i'm not 'involve' in what's going on around me ie i couldn't care less. hmm...what a scary thought.
well, there is something that i want to blog and that is...take a rest first..continue later

Hot piece of Real Estate.

some ppl form my department are moving to a hot piece of real estate. it's just another part of the building but several dept have been eyeing it since everyone got wind that the current dept will be moved out to a diff location.

lo and behold, who should be allocated that piece of real estate but my band of merry men and me..hmmm...it must be because we don't want to move. really. coz unlike most of the other dept, we really don't mind working in a space that is slightly congested.

when i first joined the company, that's where the whole dept were and 1 of my producer really hated it there. i don't really like it very much myself. our present humble area is bright & cheerful, the place we're moving to ? it looks kind of gloomy, like they've been farming mushrooms in that area or a crime scene area right off CSI.

coz the allocation in not done in an open tender way, some dept are quite sore with me (as i'm trying to co-ordinate the details so that we can move on time) and the absence of proper paperwork sure adds to it.

sorry-lah, I'm just trying to make the best out of the situation I'm in, paperwork regarding the move and all should have been done at the higher level.

i sure hope there are systems for all these. the problems i've encountered in this moving exercise is scary.

1. we were not consulted as to how we would like to be seated in the new area. they just drew a plan to fit in maximum people in the available space.
2. the people currently occupying the place were not told the move had been brought forward, it was suppose to be in Sept or Oct.
3. i was told of the move but found out about the date of move by accident, speaking to M&E guys about arrangements of office space.
4. almost all the info most of the people go was through word of mouth or hearsay.

wah, long blog.. that's why i don't usually blog about work.
