A lot of things transpired in August..... My colleague who's transferring out of the department finally got the conclusion he's been searching for, his last day with my friggin' team will be on 30th September and he'll move to his next team from 1st October onwards. I'm happy for him, but that also means I'll be left alone to fend for my own. So I'm taking his departure really hard...

July has mostly been..... Well I don't really know how to put it. A mixed bag of sorts... I started the month by accompanying my staff from Batam for a fair in Jurong Point. It's been ages since I last visited Jurong Point for sure. It didn't really bring back memories since the new Jurong Point is an almost completely different maze from the one I remembered during my NTU days.

The kids' mid-year break kicked into full swing this month. It was a time to slow the pace down a bit, although for Lindsay this period meant she has to catch up on her work as PSLE prelims will start on the 3rd week of July, which is not that far away.

May has been an awful month where work is concerned. The SAP integration project went Live on 26th May, however I had overlooked one issue related to displaying the dispute intent on the chat menu and another issue on an onboarding setup for China.
What upset me most was that the manager just took me off the onboarding process and asked the obnoxious asshole to take over, I felt like I haven't been given the chance to fix my mistakes. I was extremely upset, even coming to the verge of wanting to cry. As that asshole took over the onboarding activities, he started asking questions that made me feel like I haven't done my work. Well.... The miss on displaying the intent on chat menu was because he said we just need 1 user story and the different teams will work from that user story. Guess what... the other team didn't come in at all. I had asked if I need to create another ticket and he said "No", so I had assumed that the other team would come in by themselves. Man... it was such a big mistake to just trust him, although I was also at fault for not performing the check on Live environment. To make things worse, the China team came with a last minute request on Friday to update the queue setup for the web channel. I was so pissed off, they didn't respond to my inquiries timely, so I fixed the onboarding setup for them, and then at the eleventh hour they mentioned it is not what they want.

April's pace has been picking up again, it reminded me how last year I wrote about my wife being let go by her company, this year's April is just as arduous as last's.

March has been an eventful month. So many things happened on and off work, some good, some bad... some disappointing ones too.
