I shall continue where I left off in my initial drama from Part 1.
Didn't know throwing that big envelope can be this daunting. I decided last Friday should be the best day to say tender my resignation because of 3 reasons:
Reason No. 1: Last Friday was the 28th of the month, which means PAY DAY! So, knowing that I have already pocketed my month's pay, throwing that letter felt more safe.
Reason No. 2: Friday is always the best time to throw the letter simply because it's the end of the working week! The boss is probably in the best mood since it's FRIDAY and all he's probably thinking about is swinging his hips in Aloha.
Reason No. 3: I chose to throw towards nearly the end of the day, approximately 5.30pm because I KNEW the boss wouldn't hold me up for long because he's got his mind in Aloha already.
Hahahha... And with that, I devised the perfect plan to resign with minimal possible objections on Friday, the 28th at 5.30pm. And yes, I have checked the FENG SHUI as well.
Seriously, I wasn't that cool. Didn't know why I was freaking out a little, but a short chat with What The Fak calmed me down and gave me the courage.
As I walked towards the bosses' rooms, my heart was thumping so hard it could've easily jumped out of my chest! I braced myself for the worst... and walked... and walked... and...
To be continued in Part 3.

I just resigned 10 minutes ago - Part 1
It all seemed so surreal. I actually went into my bosses' room (I have 3 bosses to explain myself to. Yes, it's complicated) and repeated my explanation for 3 times! Why didn't I bring my voice recorder with me? *slaps head*
Boss, here's my resignation letter. *Nah*
Boss, I wish to resign. *Nah*
Boss, I'm going to resign. *Nah*
What the pak?! Hahah. Want to resign also have to repeat so many times?!
One accepted my reason, one questioned my reason, the other looked surprised. What can I say? Different people react differently to different situations despite being told the same reasons. Complicated isn't it?
Shall talk more about this in Part II of my resignation.

Life can be pak-ing difficult sometimes
The past few weeks have been a roller coaster ride for me and What The Fak, my accomplice. Thank you for being there, my soulmate!

Boss, you're fired!
"What the Pak!" is created to serve as the journal of my life, as someone who is soon (very VERY soon!) going to give her boss the sack of his life and start lazing...Oops, I meant working from home for good!
A toast to freedom! Cheers!
Sick of working for others and getting dogged around like an idiot, I've made the decision to give myself a well-deserved break from the ruthless and silly corporate world out there. Yes. Be gone with the politics and back-stabbings!
I'm talking about settling down at home and re-organizing my life again. I'm talking about finding my own direction in life. I told myself that I'm never going to work all my life. So the idea of working for another 30 years doesn't fit too well into my principles. I'd rather take the chance (and risk!) to explore alternative ways to live my life.
If all fails, perhaps only then will I make my way back to the world outside. Nothing to lose mahh...Hahah.
Note: This should've been my introductory post. The first post actually came about unintentionally when I was ridiculously enraged with the academic situation nowadays that I HAD to blog about it there and then!
Yeah, I'm emotional.
Or maybe it was the PMS.

Now must get 21 As only considered clever wor. What the pak!
What the pak?!!
"PUTRAJAYA: SMKA Yan student Azali Azlan has set a new record by obtaining 21 As – 20 1As and one 2A – in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination.
He has beaten the record set by former SMK Ulu Tiram student Nur Amalina Che Bakri who scored 17 1As in 2004."
Azali on the right. Damn sei chai pau!
These days SPM students must get 21 As only considered high achievers ar? Get 21 As only can masuk paper is it? You make others who get 10 As or 11 As look so stupid. From the looks of it, suddenly getting 10 As is a minimum requirement for everybody. Otherwise you cannot get a place in universities or any scholarships.
What the pak?!!
Then how about students who get ZERO As or fail certain subjects? Does it indicate directly that their future is gone and wasted? No wonder the rising cases of students all the way from UPSR jumping down 40 storeys just to make sure they really die if they don't get full As!
During my time, getting 10 As is like the best of the best already. And mind you, What The Pak is not that old okay. I'm still in my early 20s.
And now when you get stupid kids like these who compete against one another to break new records, how can other NORMAL kids survive? Even though SPM is open certificate format, there has to be a maximum number of subjects to limit all these idiots from getting 21 As and killing the rest of the competition.
Not all SPM students will understand that getting 10 As isn't the end of the world. And not all, especially this idiot kid who "wanted to prove to himself that he could do it, adding that he had obtained 18 1As and 3 2As in the trial examination" understands that getting 21 As doesn't mean he has a bright successful future ahead.
Get a grip on life lah, for goodness sake. Does it mean that by the time I have kids that age, the poor kid should be getting at least 50 As to qualify for some scholarship???
What the pak!?!
I don't want my kid to commit suicide ok. And who that heck says something like this??? "Azali, 17, who wants to study biotechnology, either in the United States or Britain, said he wanted to thank his teachers from kindergarten to secondary school. "
What the pak!?! *sigh*
