Someone stole the RAM

Just when I thought I could catch up on my work, ...something came up. I got a call from Melissa (our team's 'sponge', she learns everything that the team needs to know and spread it to the team like wild fire) asking me about a duplicate file. It seems that another colleague of mine was review the same folder!

Melissa checked on our files and found that some of the data I was supposed to review wasn't in my file. That means… I'm in deep shit. I have been skipping a lot of log entries that I was suppose to review. *yikes* Thank god my team leader said to continue from where I left off, so I do not have to back track. As for me and my colleague’s duplicate review, I'm carrying on with the job because it was my responsibility in the first place.

I'm already bogged down by so much work, so much data to review. And now, more stuff to review. I have no idea how I'm going to finish it. Seriously, .... even if I didn't have any back logs, I still will not be able to finish it. The work load is just too heavy for one person! Maybe I'm slow, but I don't know man. It's crazy! I better buck up, if not.... arghghghghg my supervisor is going to kill me!

My team lead came to my cubicle after work and we had a little chat. I was worried that he was going to give me my first 'You better buck up dude' lecture, but it was not. *phewwwww* I'm glad I have an understanding team leader. Not only did he give me words of encouragement, he shared with me his experience when he was like me. He's a smart guy who can read people's mind. He gave me a bit of an advice... I really want to share it with you all, but I don't want to get sued. Any company will be lucky to have a staff like him.

Anyway, I finished off a bit of work and as I leave I met my team leader again. I wanted to buy a birthday card for my dad and he wanted to buy something for his son, so we headed to KLCC and took the LRT home together. It's nice to get to know more about my team leader.


On yeah, … the old white elephant PC that was under my desk was still there when I came to work this morning. The guy in charge of it came to collect all of our white elephant today. Guess what…. Both RAMs from the PCs in my room were missing. Someone must have stolen it. No one was in during the CNY holidays and the room had no lock. 2 x 256mb of SDRam. Who stole it?
