hello minmin. join the club. i'm not allowed to msn at work so i just surf the net. but basically my job is to act like i'm not too bored. planning to change jobs after new years though. what do u do

[jayinhongkong]

damn, i need a job like that!

yeah well think of it this way. u sit here from 9 to 6 and u hv nth to do at all. well. ok. maybe not not at all but let's say an average of umm.. 10 hours or so of real work per week and it's hardly intensive. no deadlines and u dont need to use your brain.
so anyway i hv a bit of a problem called severe brain rot.

Holy Smoke! I suspect there's some irony in these posts I may have missed.

I'm knackered. I seem to work 60 hours a week 6 days per week and get calls from my boss on a Sunday and frequently travel up to Guandong on a Sunday evening.

Sure, the money's better than in the UK and so is the tax but I'm not sure how much longer I can carry on like this.

Am dealing with the UK and Europe a lot and the time difference is the killer. I can't even speak to people in Europe until 3 in the p.m. and frequently have to stay until 9 at night just to get everything done.

Do the employers know you don't have anything to do?

i start to think that the longer i stay in this job, the dumber i will get. i was so used to the event pr job in the past which i had to work so hard for all time. i miss the excitement, but i cant' get back in the industry due to some stupid non competive terms in my previous contract.
