Today I had to attend 2 meetings. Nothing interesting, except that I think my clients take advantage of me, whenever I attend meetings; SOLO. During the first meeting, with my senior, they didn't voice out any of the concerns, and even agreed to provide sufficient documents to request service from us. However, came the second meeting, the person in charged told me that they wouldn't want to submit such documents to us due to some inconvenience (or I think the fella was lazy to do it!!) and told me that they won't be doing it. I was like "Whaaa?" I haven't even warm my seat and they shot me with such statements.

I feel like a dumbass in the centre of attention. Really.
Because there are certain things which I have no idea what's going on, because it's beyond my need to acknowledge. Like the quotation and tender pricings. Or the documents they are expected to send in to us.
And when the client asked me if it's okay if they do not send it, I could only say, "I thought it was agreed, wait, I have to ask my superior first."

Not only I look stupid, but clearly clueless! And I hate that.
This is why I try not to go for meetings alone, because there are certain issues I am not supposed to handle, and I have zero knowledge about.

Thank goodness I managed to coax the client to submit the documents, anyhow.

There. 

I also had my dinner on my own today. With the usual colleagues, I would eat at the hawker stalls near our hotel, but today, I felt like spending the night alone. Took my iPad along, and went to this ONE AND ONLY Japanese Restaurant/Western in Sri MANJUNG and just chilled.

I had Assorted Sashimi Set and a Caramel Creme for dessert. A wholesome meal.
Could have down a bottle of Strongbow but they ran out of it. Aah!



Took this at Jiang's place over the weekend, to throw Mel a "farewell party". Nice drumstick and sides :) I believe there will be more "farewell parties" to come, wished there were more weekends of such.
