"This person will self-destruct in 5 seconds."

I think I'm going crazy.
I know I'm this close to losing it,
And I gladly show it on my face at work.

This fucking job is getting more fucked up by the day.

I hardly ever use the f-word on my blog,
Only when the situation warrants it.

I don't remember the last time that I cried,
But I can imagine myself crying if I stay on.

Out of sheer frustration,
Fatigue, desperation and helplessness.

And maybe lunacy.

Needless to say,
I had an extremely bad day.
Or should I say, week.

I was asked to help out at this outlet,
(Which had been described by many others,
As hell, the worst outlet to work at)
For today and yesterday.

And so I went,
Prepared for the worst,
And still, I managed to be surprised.

The outlet is located at this lousy building,
Next to the Kwan Yin Temple,
And the best part is that there's no air-con.

Within minutes,
My uniform was sticking to me like a second skin,
And my socks were also damp.
Or soaked,
I don't know.

Gross, yes I know.
I felt gross the whole day.

God knows what the fuck is wrong,
With the people at that outlet as well.
I was left alone to survive the heat wave,
While they take 90 minutes for their supposed 1 hour break.

Fuckers.
Actually,
There's only one.
So,
fucker.

And the fucker made me clean every shelf and spotlight,
And dismantle all the fucking fans and wash them all.

In other words,
I did every dirty job possible.

On the flip side,
The customers there were so much nicer.
Maybe the temple nearby has something to do with it,
Ha.

And there were also a few watch shops in the building,
And their prices were much cheaper than the malls.
Plus, you can still bargain for a better deal.
I got my heart set on this DKNY chronograph,
But I think I'll wait till the end of the month,
To see if I have spare cash left over.

Then again,
Do I really need another watch?

I've been wasting money buying CDs,
The latest acquisition being Craig David's new album.
And I'm going to get Kanye West's one when I have the time.

Phew.
I'm so glad that my stint at the shop from hell is over.
I came home and had a super long shower,
Because I felt so unclean.

So what else made this week sucky?

Let's see.
3 consecutive full shifts.
I also managed to drop a plate onto my feet,
And it shattered into a gazillion tiny pieces,
Resulting in multiple tiny lacerations all over my legs.

I also received a notification from the LTA,
Informing me that it's time,
For my bike to go for an inspection.

Bah.
Waste of time and money.

By the way,
Any Weilian fans here?
I saw him today going to the Kwan Yin temple,
Surrounded by his adoring auntie fans.

Don't get me wrong,
I like him too,
So don't give me any bullshit about "voting from the heart".

And even if people vote for him,
Because he's blind,
What's the difference from voting for Kelly,
Because you think she's pretty?
