Carla’s Birthday and Dinny’s Farewell
August 27th, 2004. Published under Daily Journal. 1 Comment.
Oups, I overslept. I should work from the first shift this morning. Couldn’t sleep early last night because S, remember the Aggro, kept sending me messages. After 2 AM I decided to silence my cellphone so I could get some sleep. Well it meant my phone alarm was silenced too. Got some missed calls and messages from her but I didn’t give a damn since I needed to hurry. I wouldn’t want a bad discpline point in my next appraissal. Fortunately, I arrived at the office just in time.
Carla’s Birthday
Today we celebrated two occassions at the office. After the lunch break, we congratulated Carla on her birthday. Some cakes and picture-takings as usual. Carla looked so damn aggressive and couldn’t get her hands off Yunus :D. Well, it was her birthday, everyone let and even encouraged her to do so.
Dinny’s Farewell Party
After the second shift at around 5 PM, we celebrated Dinny’s leaving. Well was it really a celebration? We should be sad because another mate was gonna leave us, shouldn’t we? But we had prepared a feast for her farewell party, so I may call it a celebration anyhow.
At that moment, Vera—our boss, and Freddy—her superordinate, gave their acknowledgements to her. Jonathan and Eva “Iyem” gave some memorabilias of artworks and pictures to her. In turn, Dinny gave a greeting card to each of us, except Vera (she was sent an email instead) and Yustina (Dinny left it at her house). In my card Dinny wrote that I was smart, kind, whatsoever and wished the best for me. I didn’t take it seriously though since I did believe that she had written the same kind of good things to others. She just can’t say bad things about others which I can easily do.
Dinny, who quitted to go to Jakarta like Eva “entut”, was the fourth that leaved the company in this year after Devi Sisca, Wiembardi, and Eva S. What a quite development we have here. I believe that most of them who leaved the company need larger fortunes since they got their next jobs instantly after they quitted. I can’t blame the work environment since I feel we are quite comfortable working at the company. Of course conflicts did and will always happen, but I have never found a major one so far. The company really should do something to keep its employees happier to stay.

Agreed Well, if i see it right now… i don’t think the company is consider its employees are valuable. Hmm, except for some employees who have important roles and holds the company’s future. I think you are one of them, Den ^o^ For the other team members… well, they are just waiting for the right time to leap on a higher and more promising level
