If you are looking for jobs, instead of just going through the newspaper, you can try going through the many job websites that have mushroom over the years. You can definitely find more jobs online that those being advertised in the papers. Those hard to find jobs such as Occupational Therapist Aide Jobs can also be found in the many online jobs website. I too found my current job using one of these job search website. It is really convenient and I do not need to buy many newspapers just to search for a job. How did you got you job? Searching using the job search website or by going through the papers.

Company New Keypoints
We have received a communication from our new Director. Seems like has promise us that there will be some changes in the coming months. This is in regards to salary repackaging and career development. I hope that it will really go in plan and have our salary changed and revised according to the market rate. Seriously, our current salary is way too low. It is no wonder that many just use this company as a stepping stone and no one wishes to stay long. I would like to stay long too so lets see how well is the salary repackaging goes. Will have to wait till at least in May to see anything.
Ray Bans
Oh my, more tasks for me to work on. At least it would help to pay for the $19.99 app that I bought of Cydia yesterday. If you want to know what the app is, it is the PhoneItPad. Basically this app will turn your iPad 1st generation in a huge phone. You can make normal calls and received sms just like on an ordinary phone. The only thing is, there is no MMS and no Facetime. That is okay for me as I don’t like to receive MMS and I don’t do video chat as well. Anyway, the task that I got should also enough for me to get myself another Ray Bans. I do have one but the model is like 6-7 years ago. Time to get another one to have some variety.
Sleeving
I have always been wondering what people call those wrapping over the wires and cable and finally know what is it. It is call sleeving. There are many kinds of sleeving such as the standard sleeving, side entry sleeving, fiberglass sleeving, speciality sleeving and not forgetting braided sleeving as well. Basically from what I can see and know, it is a protective cover for your wires and cables. Not only that but it also helps to keep those wiring and cables from getting messed up. I would be getting some of it as to keep my PCs wires organized. I think the side entry sleeving would be a good choice for that.
So darn broke…
I’m out of cash in the bank and still short of couple hundred to clear the minimum payment for my CC. I do have other Fixed Deposit but still contemplating on withdrawing it. As I have to settle my CC before the 16th, I will have no choice but to withdraw my Fixed Deposit first and deposit it back again. I thought I had enough at the beginning of the month who knows there were some other stuffs that I would need to pay as well. Well, I still do have have cash in PayPal or Nuffnang that I can withdraw from anyway. Just need to think which is the best option as I only have 3 days left to go.
CPU cart
I learnt something new today. My friend was telling about this cpu cart and all I can think of it the PCs cart. As an IT person, that’s all I can think about. After explaining to me more clearly what is it all about, I only found out that it is not as what I expected. The cpu cart that he was talking about is one of those cart that you can find at the hospital or clinic. These cart are more high tech than the normal PCs cart. So next time one someone says CPU cart, it is not necessary a cart for your CPU. I was pretty embarrassed over it.
Steel pendants
My colleague received a steel pendant for her Christmas gift exchange. It is quite lovely I would say even though the design was simple. I went searching online for steel pendants and found a few sites that have some pendants that I might consider getting. A close friend birthday is getting closer and it would be best if I can decide what to get for her soon. A last minute decision might not get the item delivered to me on time. I couldn’t find any local business online with the designs that I’m looking for.
China
I was invited by my friend to for a China trip with him to Xinjiang. I wanted to go for it but another friend told me that I should visit Beijing first instead of any other place in China. If I like Beijing, then I can slowly go and visit other places in China. Now my friend is asking me whether I have applied for my leave to go with him or not. He will be there for 2 weeks. As mention earlier, I don’t think I will be able to get a two weeks off. Even applying for a week off for Chinese New Year, my leave was rejected.
Jacket
I’m quite lucky this week as I have plenty of opportunity to write something down. If this were to go on continuously for every week, I might be able to get one of those columbia jacket that I saw online recently. It is quite fancy with the design and they do have some really nice colors. At least after buying it, I would have another jacket to wear to work instead of just wearing the same one everyday. With only one jacket, I haven’t even washed it once at all since I got it. It doesn’t smell though as I don’t sweat in it at all. Mostly just wearing it at the office.
