SRD trip 14.6.09

So the trip to Miri for Shell Recruitment Day began. I took a morning train trip from Bukit Mertajam to KL Sentral. It was the first time I took day railway trip in the 4 years as previously, I prefer the night train so I can sleep in there and resume my life on the next day at destination.

The train was rather empty but the commotion from other passengers really defied the environment. Anyway, it was a dreadful 8 hours trip without any sleep.

Reached KL around 3pm, took a cab back to Semenyih house. What an incident.. happened to stumble upon a woman breastfeeding her baby in KTM commuter..okay... it looked awkward.

Had my whole night at Semenyih without TV and Internet, just preparing for my interview and went for early sleep.

easier said than done..

A recent conversation with a friend made me realise there are so much things, when said is ideal, when done might turn out to be less pleasant. Well of course one cannot run away from continuously managing an activity or action so that it does not turn ugly at all. Continuous management is what human tend to call, commitment. And who the hell made that word up, I've missed an M the first time I wrote it! As far as I lived to write this post today, I am 'proud' to still not tied down by the human-termed 'commitment'. I can have all the 365 days for myself, all my earnings for myself (of course I voluntarily treat my family which made me happy, and that's what I do for myself too) and all the time for myself. I can safely assume that I have almost zero commitment. Probably as the level of maturity heightens with age, responsibility and commitment come into play naturally. Not sure if from zero to hero sounds great when it is about commitment to everyone but I gues...

we asked for it..

I was surfing the internet for privileged banking criteria as I really hate queuing in the bank just to handle some small matter. Not that I am earning loads, but I am looking forward for the day. ... until I came across a forum where a person mentioned, with ebanking, transactions are done without even leaving your home. Ah, that's right. Most of the time now, I just manage transactions via online banking. Probably larger sum requires me to visit the branch but common people can just manage their account in front of their laptop. So, I thought, probably 10 years ahead, there will be only 2-3 frontline bankers in each branch rather than the sum we have now. Same to many industries, with expansive of specialization and automation, probably the world might need more maintenance technician rather than the person who once did the job before machines took over. Hahaha... sounds terminated? I'd rather say retrenched (similar terminated term in workforce hahah) Similar to LEAN. LEAN i...

Why I Won't Consider a Korean Car?

Sorry if i am stereotyping, but after having driven a relative's car, a Hyundai Sonata 2.0 (A) for some time, I have come to a conclusion:- won't be tempted by cheaper koreans.... err korean cars. 1. It is not a new car anymore but I particularly hate the crashing sound of the dashboard everytime i go through some minor road undulations. Even a similarly aged Proton Wira does not produce such pronounced effect. 2. I don't know about their current offerings but that car has terrible build quality. I must admit that the car has some soft touch panels that are nice but they are terribly fitted together. 3. Fuel consumption is quite high. I think I should not be the only one complaining. Ask some Hyundai owners and most probably they'll tell you the same. 4. Seats are not supportive. Your butt may slide away from turning direction if you make it hard, thanks to super slippery, flat leather seats. Your butt keeps moving but the seat belts forcing your chest to stay.... maybe...
