The dreaded part 2
continue from previous post...
After the initial euphoria, I suddenly felt a little loss. I didnt want to be unassigned for the whole part of my time here. While I am not looking to work towards partnership, I wanna feel useful... I wanna feel "USED" (SLUT!). Just as this matter was bothering me... I got an email and found out that I am going out of town!! Wohoo!! (this term is always used by Zhanwen, i find it irritating, but it seems apt to use it here).
I have always wondered how it feels like to travel out of town, living out of suitcases... having those free meals... and staying in the hotels... When I found out that it is finally my turn, I was cheering inside!
After a few hours of struggling with the inefficient American system, I finally managed to book my flights and hotel....
Sadly.... and greatly to my amazement... I was asked to cancel my trip on the following Tuesday (shortlived joy..). The reason... an impt person making the trip could not make the trip, hence it has to be postponed to a further date (which I will prob not be able to make it.)
This time, I will be unassign for at least 3 more weeks, which means in total, 5.5 weeks of unassign time.... Am I wasting my life away (while I could chill out, I certainly wanna make myself useful to pple). I had to seek the "help" of my planner to make myself gainfully employed... (I HAD TO ASK FOR MYSELF TO BE BOOKED!!).
She willingly obliged... and booked me on a job which I will start on the week after this coming one.
I am happy... I dunno why... maybe becoz I feel "useful"... I like to feel "used" sometimes...
