Hands off our Auditors!!

In an exclusive scoop for Simon Says, there is groundbreaking news that an auditor from a reputable undisclosed global audit company was actually being harassed in her client’s place. Even though such incidents are thought to be rare, this incident highlighted the peril of this noble profession.

The victim, Ms Threesa* broke down into uncontrollable crying as she recalled the incident, “He introduced me to his fellow colleagues as if I am his someone special. He even asked me for my mobile number! Later he asks me to go storeroom to vouch documents how?”

Her mentor, Ms Beng Li* consoled her, “Walau, he don’t have much money and has a middle management position only. Lidat also want to chase her. Lao di gou ah!” “Somemore he’s short”, added Ms Threesa in between her sobs while glancing at her vertically-challenged friend, Mr Si-Pi-Shee*.

This has become a major concern for not only female auditors but male auditors as well. Mr Yixuan* who is from the same audit company, exclaimed, “How can we work with a peaceful mind when there are such predators out there? I demand maximum protection, especially for Beiyan*, I mean for ALL female auditors, until this danger has passed!” When probed further, Mr Yixuan conceded that a demonstration is planned and it involves him marching down Shenton Way wearing nothing but a pair of Superman brief to hit home his point.

The chairman of the audit firm was unavailable for comments at press time.

Food for thought

K, since I'm so bored at client's place doing nothing. I shall blog about a conversation that took place over supper one fine Friday. Here's a food trivia. Anyone who can provide the most convincing answer will win an attractive prize to be given out on Christmas Bash night. Closing date: 7 Dec (Thurs), 11pm.

The meat of a pig is called pork
The meat of a cow is called beef
The meat of a deer is called venison
The meat of a sheep is called lamb/mutton*

Now, why is the meat of a chicken called chicken?

*Additional info: Lamb is the meat of a young sheep while Mutton is the meat of a grown sheep

JB Outing 2 - 19th Nov


jb seafood bonanza 2! jb seafood bonanza!


Hah ok the photos basically sums up the 'highlight' of the trip!! (Pardon me, I'm not as skilled on PS as Joycey!)

We met up at Kranji last Sunday, and 'as usual' Mr KYX was late and Mr CKK was on his way from Expo, so some of us went in first to get tickets for Happy Feet!

It was a nice movie, cept that the seats weren't very comfy and we came out having some strained necks and back!

Next, we went to the ONLY provision store in City Sq to stock up on our fave snacks and lo and behold, guess who shopped the most?? it's HOINING!! Yongxiang can second to that, coz he kept saying "die die die! I wan to buy everything!!" :P

Off we go to 大马花园 for seafood after that! You should have seen me and Hoining's eyes, they were super big when we saw the WHOLE table full of seafood!! I almost went crazy, and if I din rem wrongly, I was busy eating for whole half hour, before I felt that I was quite full from all the food! :P

We spent on average 30RM per pax and it was really worth it. Yuxuan was saying he finally found people to eat those shelled seafood w him!

Interesting...

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose. Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil, without saying a word. In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl.

Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me, what do you see?" "Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied. Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked the daughter to sip the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma. The daughter then asked, "What does it mean, mother?"

Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity ... boiling water. Each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.

"Which are you?" she asked her daughter. "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?"

:: fisherman's wharf ::

British style Fish&Chips..not too bad to gather there i guess..just tat we chose the wrong dish to eat? Don't try the American catfish! The dory could do better. The quarter pound is even better. i pretty enjoy the ambience. and the foosball. Initally, we were told to pay an extra 2bucks per person to enjoy the aircon on the 2nd floor, which was quite crap..but i think they miss it out from our bill..haha. Pricing is reasonable, but service quite bad. (But they don't ve service charge i think..)..overall okay la..i'm not a choosy person.

food.... 6/10
ambience... 6.5/10
pricing... 6.5/10
service...5/10
overall....6/10

i'll only go back cos that place can house a bigger group and quite nice to talk cos they don't have noisy music..!

Good things always come in pairs... or rather, dumb things

If you thought Hoi Ning was crazy (pls refer to my earlier post)....u ain't seen nothing yet. This does not require a conversation...its straight to the punchline

Nadz: "Yah yah yah...go get that type of dog.....that Jack Daniels"

Now....let's compare the similarities between the both:

This is a Jack Daniels











While this is a Jack Russell


Amazing how they closely relate to each other huh. Oh well, like they say, birds of a feather flock together. Oh btw, nadz, when u mentioned u'd be bringing alcohol for the xmas party, u were refering to the correct thing right?

Anyone for a shot of Jack Russell's after work?

Even waitresses can make fraudulent claims


Did anyone know that there's a certain type fish that resembles a pig. Yup, that's right, they call it "mock pork". Dun believe, go ask hoi ning. Here's a casual lunchtime conversation

HN: Hey, this black pepper pork (which she ordered) tastes finny leh.

Nadz: Hey, can have have a piece of your pork?

HN: Sure

20mins later.......

Andrea: Hey, Hoi Ning, that black pepper fish is mine lar!!


Well, look on the bright side, its better than mixing up char siew rice with fish n chips. Hmm...actually...they're both the same!!!

P/s: anyway, there is a type of fsh known as a pig fish. Dun believe, go google it.

Life is great when...

1. You can come back early because your client knocks off at 5pm sharp.

2. Your job ended early even though you still have 1 more day of booking.

3. OA = office assistant

4. L&E = learning & education = S L A C K :P

5. Your senior pays for all the cab fares when you share the cab with her *yippee*

6. You client offered to bring you out for lunch at expensive country club or restaurants *woohoo*

7. You get to watch your favourite tv drama at 7pm

8. You don't have to take mrt or bus to go for work.

9. Your client is cooperative and prepares all the schedules that you wanted beforehand.

10. You receive a sms from your dear friends and be reminded that today is World Best Sister's Day!!! :)

As u can see from the above, I'm really happy!! I guess i NEED to think of ways to make myself happy so that work doesn't get too draining yah? ;)
