A rather good Monday

Woke up early for RPM. Found that I didn't do too bad, instead, I think better and more energetic than last Friday, I guess because I had a good rest during the weekend. On my way out from the gym, the girl at the front desk told me that she wanted to ask me where did I get my stockings. Haha... so my new fashion is kind of noticeable... But she told me she got herself one at The Curve... yeah, she was wearing the thick black stocking. Nice...

Reached office and found that my "neighbour" was on half day leave. Good, which means half a day of fresh air. Yeah, my neighbour colleague there is a heavy smoker, every time he walked back after his cigarette break, he pollutes the air so badly that it made me want to puke and flares up my sinus immediately. Not just that, most of the time he has bad BO and when he burps..... yeeeuuuwwww.... don't even want to describe it.

So, today I finally decided that enough is enough, why do I want to be tolerate bad air quality? So I went to made a request with my boss who asked me why do I want to change cubicle. I told him that my place was very stuffy. Puzzled, my boss commented that I've been sitting at my place for more than 2 years but it only got stuffy now? At the end I told him the reason (truth) that my place got stuffy was because my colleague smell of smoke all the time and it's very smelly. That did it, boss told me to move to the next cubicle, but I told boss I want to move further. Haha.... he told me to choose where ever I want to move to. Happy!

Though my new place is now right at the middle, and with more people around me, less privacy, but hey, fresher air!!! Sometimes it just take one decision for better quality of "living" hehe...

Today's traffic seemed great, not much congestion. I find that my happiness is somehow determined by the traffic now a days haha... Overall quite a good Monday.

Baked chicken pie and a new cupcake recipe during the weekend since there were no orders, and they both turned out great. MC practically said she hasn't have enough chicken pie, and she had a lot of cupcakes too (and mum too had quite a lot) - I also couldn't stop myself from eating that. So I'm a happy baker.

You know what? I have "solved" the problem for fresher air - I've changed to another work cubicle, away, FAR away from the source of polluted air!!! :) :)

Argh... i'm having the same issue in the office.

My colleague who takes cigarette breaks once an hour and causes air pollution. Assuming if you were her non-smoking colleague, and you were breathing dirty air the whole day, how pissed off would you be?

I'm leaving for a biz trip with this colleague next week. She told me that she won't care and just smokes in the hotel room. WTF!! If you want to smoke, pls go out.

Ok, no offense to all smokers out there. :D

LP, if i were you, I will be super pissed,and have bad mood at work all the time!!! The air freshener actually won't work most of the time, also mainly they are "dusty".

And I tried telling my colleague/ boss about it, and they also told him about his bad smell, but nothing can be/ is done. So... my move is the last measure. :)

Ohh... poor you, you need to share room with your colleague assuming? Hopefully you get a non-smoking room and so she must smoke outside ^^
