Labour Law or Makan?

When I started working at KSC, it was like a deja vu. I think this is where my ACTUAL career begins. I am happy with my job because of the pay and the freedom the company gives me. My position is as an Accounts Executive and Administrator. I am solely in-charge with the accounts and payroll. I am not complaining at all about these responsibilities they have given me eventho I work like an octopus BUT I am very happy. There were few times I think I wanted to change my job, but my heart says NO. Rasa berat hati sangat.

On the 8-9 July 2009, I attended a 2 days course on Malaysia Labour Law at Eastin Hotel. Personally, knowing about the law is an eye-opener. I hate reading law, but it is part of my job to have better knowledge about all these acts: FRS, statutory act (EPF, SOCSO and income tax), labour law, Anti Money Laundering Act, etc. You don't have to become a lawyer to know the Act. A survey shows that currently the most highly paid job is as HR. (should I make a carrier change?)

So the course explained on areas/issues relating to employees rights and what are the employers responsibilities. It sounds simple but yet complicated.

And then I learnt something interesting about TRADE UNIONS. At this course, I met a lot of HR having headache with their in-house union. It's funny because unions were set up because employees (those earning below RM1.5k) doesn't trust the HR. They claimed that the HR doesn't favour them. It is interesting to exchange views with all these people.

But what I like most is the FOOD! hahaha. We makan every 3 hrs! (jimat duit belanja aku) Now I have 2nd favourite choice of nice food served at hotels. Eastin's lunch buffet and hi-tea was superb. First choice would always be Paya Serai @ PJ Hilton. (a bit gross when thinking this hotel relates to Paris Hilton) ha3

P/S: Now I am hungry when thinking about all the delicious food I ate for the past 2 days. sedap!

Sorry for the late entry. Yesterday took me the WHOLE day just to settle the accident. I went to the office for awhile yesterday's morning, to settle some work. Around 10 something, I went to the police station to lodge a report. Well since the accident happened in PJ district, (Sg Buloh to be exact), the report needes to be done at Kota Damansara Police Station (Traffic). This is my first time doing it on my own. (2nd accident within a year. the first time, I was accompanied by my dad. this time around, he said let me do it on my own and learn) The police station was located behind the McD/KFC/Pizza Hut. Just a small station. The officer in-charge was very 'garang'. Everytime he asked me a question, it has to be so loud and like guru besar! But actually, he was kind and funny! I think it is around 11 something when I was interviewed by Sarjan Hassan. For insurance claiming purpose, I need to get a copy of the report, so I was asked to go to IPD Petaling at PJ State! I arrived at 1pm. Dahlah parking susah, I parked at 8Avenue (new place) and walked to IPD. The counter only open at 2pm, so I had my lunch first at KFC. Around 1.55pm I berlari ke IPD. Luckily I cepat sampai sana, sebab dari luar I dah nampak ramai orang beratur kat kaunter. Nasib baik diorg tu efisyen, around 2.15pm I dapat copy of my report (kenalah bayar RM2 per copy).

Lepas tu berkejar ke Proton Service Centre at Glenmarie. (My dad was already there waited for me) So lepas isi borang claim semua bagai, kete comel ku dibiarkan di sana. (actually I boleh bawa balik kete tu, tapi sebab I malas nak ulang alik, I decided to leave it there. in the meantime, I requested them service my car). The estimated time for the claim process was 1-2 weeks! Sekarang semua pakai kereta Ibu! urgghhh minyak kete ibu mahal lah! rasa 'patah kaki' n 'mati kutu' tau tak de kete sendiri!

So moral of the story:

1. Walaupun I tak salah dalam hal accident ni, I tak boleh claim dari insuran motosikal tu. Motorcycle's insurance is totally different than motor vehicle's coverage. (I found out that Trailer and bus's too have different concept. so just be careful)

2. Habis NCB insurance aku-since using my insurance!

3. Pada mata orang insurance, kemalangan dengan motosikal tetap salah pemandu kereta (walaupun motorsikal tu yang langgar kereta)

4. Oh polis kate this accident akan keluar paper sebab ada pihak yang tercedera, and trying to identify the other motorcyclist yang langgar the victim)

5. Nak settle semua ni makan masa 1 hari suntuk! Make sure you have all the documents ready!

These pictures say a thousand words

It happened a moment ago at 8pm when I was driving back from work. The road leading to Bukit Rahman Putra was congested due to the night market being held at Bandar Baru Sungai Buloh. So when I was moving down the flyover, and break, out of sudden something hit my car from behind. I didn't see the rider, but I saw from my view mirror, another motorcycle was balancing himself. I pressed my hazard lights immediately and made my way down the flyover, and stopped by the road side. I was shivering when I waited for the rider, from the road side, I saw few motorcyclists swarming the accident area. I was not so sure what to do at that moment, should I go up to the flyover(risking my life) or wait for him. While waiting, ramai lah pula orang mengorat aku kat tepi jalan. SUngguh muhibah, Cina ada, India ada, Melayu apatah lagi. Then about 15 min later, I saw an ambulance stopped at the accident area. (at that time, i memang panic giler-siap fikir alamak mati ke orang tu. while waiting, I called my mom and my bro, my dad was at surau) I followed the ambulance to Hospital Sg Buloh. I went straight to the emergency ward and searched for the rider. (My mom and bro arrived 10mins later) I managed to locate him, he was fine but his left foot was badly injured. It was because when he hit my car, he tried to balance himself, and another motorcycle langgar his leg and the paddle went straight into his flesh! Nasib baik nurse dah buat dressing kalo tak sure aku pitam tgk kaki dia. I paid for his medical bill, (ala singgit je), my mom took down his particular and everything (macam Inspector Sahab)

So I said to the boy (yes, org muda masih berlesen P) we will settle this once dah jahit kaki tu. Aku pun baliklah.. penat seh. (Tau tak masa tengah stucked in traffic jem tu, I was thinking what to buy at pasar malam)

When I reached home, I re-examined my car again. (hancur hati ku bersama dgn bumper and lampu yg berharga ratusan ringgit) Probably tonight I will be going to the police station to lodge a report. (or tomorrow morning. penat ni.. tunggu ayah balik dari surau)

Beauty Regime

When I first tried Matt touch -- tada! OIL FREE! I was given a sample, and instantly fell in love with it. So last year, when I wanted to buy it, the Matt Touch was no longer in the market.
So, the beautician introduced me to the substitute.

Matt Touch Foundation Oil-Free Foundation SPF 10
Well, it cost me RM150. I've been using it for a year now. I like this foundation so much because of the Matt finish. I have a very oily skin especially at the t-zone area, but since using this foundation, it controls the excess oil, conceal imperfections, and illuminate complexion. It is different from other foundation I used before. And this one, even though it's costly, it is worth buying . I just finished using the first tube. RM150 for a year? Technically, it is cheap! (well actually, when I first bought it, I was given 4 small tubes)



I bet all of you know what this is. The MIRACLE WATER or facial treatment essence. I first curi2 pakai my mom's (opps), once I dabbed it onto my face, it felt so refreshing and not to forget the yeast smell. I realized that my complexion do changed in photos (but not sure in real life). I rarely use SK-II range, but I do have the travel set in my gym bag. It only cost RM99 (facial treatment cleanser, facial treatment clear lotion and the miracle water)

Last week my best friend invited me to join her to Bandung. I only need to pay for the flight tickets and my own pocket money. I was so excited with the offer and after taking into consideration of my work load, I agreed. So on last Tue, I browsed AirAsia's website to check for the availability. My best friend's flight is scheduled in the morning and coming back in the evening on the 4th day, so far at that time, the flight cost about RM600++.

To make long story short, within 4 days (since Tue until Sat) the price hiked tremendously. From RM600++ on Tue, it went to RM800++ on Thur and damn it, on Sat, it cost RM1k++. No wonder when I tried to book it online, it was unsuccessful. I was frustrated, heart-broken, semua lah... So untuk mengubati hati yang luka, I went shopping last Sun with si dia. banyak jugalah aku shopping. Since everything was on sale, shop til you drop! hahaha

And today my best friend sms-ed me compensating me a mini holiday to Cameron. Well actually a holiday for me, and work for her. 4 days fully paid trip next weekend. With such as short notice, I haven't make up my mind yet. Still thinking.
