mishap and mischief (the extension version)


The picture above visualizes how our main electricity circuit board was constructed by the developer. This is the place where the thief is believed to pull out the fuse from the socket. As I try to be in the designer shoes, the first thing across in mind is - no one will try to steal the fuse. It is priceless anyway if they tend to sell it.

Well, clearly it's a good typical Malaysian point of view, would the bad typical Malaysian think on the similar way? Do you think those people who overwhelm by malicious emotion will think similarly as the good people do think? Well, I concern about this matter and would not prefer to stay out of the business.

Now it comes for another issue where this circuit board is not frequently maintain in efficient manner. The circuit board could be reached by hands as the fence is not proper enough for securing purpose. In safety contexts, it could harm and endanger the residents, it's likely the various potential of hazardous could be possible to happen and jeopardized people. The safety is not very convincing as the fence sometime remains unlock!

Just imagine whenever the children come to touch the wrong portion of the board, where the electricity carry high voltage and strike them, surely they will be dead on the spot or admitted to the intensive care unit as their heart beat comes to halt. Plus, when the rain comes down and the water splashes towards the board, don't you think it will spur the spark or short circuit upon the electricity power supply.

If less fortunate, it may cause terrible explosion which could take the maximum death toll. Maybe I sound too exaggerated, yet the preventive measure to against mishaps and mischief still need to undertake. The developer should take high concern about this matter and improve the safety aspects in order to prolong and preserve the prosperity and tranquility for the future generation.

mishap and mischief

Last Sunday was a massive disaster (should I used word "terrible" instead "disaster") It was freaking hot since our electricity power had cut off. At first, I thought TNB had cut it down due to the unsettle bills, yet my housemate convinced me all utility bills have been paid

I thought the whole neighborhood had faced the same matter, but it seems impossible after I noticed certain houses still could switch on their light. I could tell through the friction of light which had brightened their house. It happened during evening time, around 5.40 pm just right before I went out for evening sports.

I don't expect any unwanted or misfortune thing as I thought the power had been disabled by TNB technical support due to conduct their yearly maintenance. Once I back, the problem hadn't remedied yet. It seems my expectation faded down into the drain.

It's not only my house got infected, there were another 3 houses were likely face the same matter. Thus, everyone assembled outside and wondering the cause of the matter. Someone suggested to check the main fuse in the downstairs (This is a flat, so our main fuse is located at the same corner regardless the level we are staying)

We stared at the same spot and found out that the fuse had loss due to a theft. Then, we issued this to our security, asking them about their responsibility and effectiveness of securing system they have applied in this neighborhood.

One of the security could identify the suspect and was seeing that guy on the scene, but unable to take action on that moment. A frustrated person was directly claim by saying publicly, "this security guard is useless as he let the suspect went free. Then, what is the purpose of us hiring you?". Unleash the anger by shouting "dumbass". (I've converted the original statement from bahasa to english)

Subsequently, the guard tried to describe the suspect by telling the physical look of the thief. One of the obvious marks that he could recall was the thief hand has tattooed. My housemate knew the crook and able to recognize the suspect. The crook is his country mate. According to him, they were fought due to misunderstanding of certain issue. It is believed about their past.

The time was over the twilight and my housemate eager to find the suspect. I didn't want to get involved over the hassle, so I tend to be a bystander, waiting the solution from the sideline. It is believed the motive of the thief trying to make trouble just want to avenge my housemate as this is not the first time that guy seek trouble and fault. Plus, the fuse is worth less than Rm 10 if he intended to sell it. It is definitely doesn't make sense. The fuse is inexpensive!

An hour later, the suspect had finally caught up. Then my friend brought him over the security for identifying purpose. In the rendezvous, the guard had changed his statement which linked to freedom of the suspect. Not to forget, his action had provoked certain person. The further action was taken by lodging a police report. That night, I slept inconvenience due to the heat up.

Next following morning, the home owner came to the house, hoping to seek the solution by get rid the fundamental matter. He brought the new fuse to replace the stolen one. Once the fuse is connected, the electricity power is back. Everything is back to normal. The home owner claimed the price of the fuse is almost Rm 100 but others revealed it was just Rm 10.

WTF! What is the point by telling us such lie? Does he thinks by telling the lie, the thief would stop disturb us? The crime undergone by notorious person, likely a junky and nobody has stop button to cease or curb their crime and vandalism. Since now, I never heard the follow up news, I bet the thief is still outside, think freely to launch the next step of revenge assault.

Don't you just hate when...part 004

Since I still stick up with the same title apart from the numbers of series, I'm pleased to come out with another series of unsettle issue from the previous entry. You are likely not recommended to scroll down your page as I believe everything that written in the next paragraph could stand on its own feet. It's able to deliver the clear subtle message of what I've considered as negative consequences due to "changes/transformations/switches".

I used to get familiar with my college's area and its surrounding. I had been there for more than 5 years since I stepped on the ground for the first time in early year 2005. After completing my diploma in year 2008, I decided to undergo my degree program in the same year, under the same institution and territory. Thus, it's required me to extend another 2 years time to complete my degree program. The completion date was in the mid year of this year.

Now, it comes toward the raised matter...

Since this college is surrounded with many shops and premises, I know very well which particular shop I need to go to if I need to buy something which is rare or not available or hard to find in common shop. Certain quarters, they valued your money with their high standard quality to meet your satisfaction and desire. "Valued for money" becomes their mark in business.

After became one of the populations there, I could tell which shops offered low price than any other shop for the similar stuff, which shop would give you their best regard, which shop will treat you like their friend and not to forget which shop offered the best quality in return for your decent payment.

Don't you just hate when...

When I've done with the sub-topics of the monthly safety report, now it comes for the binding process to take place. It's not a hard task, not even complicated yet it's requiring some time to get it done. I need to print out a few word documents, printed out a few pictures, make a few copy of the whole report and get it properly attached with nicely fold with plastic cover at the top and bottom portion.

When I was undergoing my studies, I know which shop could give these kinds of services at decent price as I used to submit my every single assignment. Practically, this report has no different at all despite the content is not so much similar, yet the way how the report looks alike is likely same.

Once I moved to Balakong, everything has changed. Obviously, this territory is pretty big compare with the small town called Mantin. There are a lot of premises and shop lots running their daily business solely to sustain their long lasting descent besides to create an active economic growth.

Become a new comer is not easy. I felt awkward with this new dimension. I need to walk slowly along the facade and staring those signboards which is advertising their type of business until I spotted the shop which provides the service that I'm looking for. However, it's not just like that easy. Sometime, certain shops have printer but they don't have photocopy machine and vice versa.

It's hard to find a shop which could get my report done in just a go and give me less errands. There's a lot of stationeries here but they just not proper equipped especially with printer and photocopy machine. But now, after two months time, I could overcome the matter very well. Now I know where to find the stationeries which could cater with my needs. Yet I still hate to spend my time and stupidly waste my precious effort just want to roam and seek the stationery. Argh! (Sigh)

Don't you just hate when...part 003

During my studying years last time, I used to have a lot of assignments, basically given by lecturers which are respected to their subjects. I never found myself in trouble of ensuring those assignments to be completed based on the right sequent of the sub-topics - apart from my endeavor to find the answer is slightly discounted in this issue.

Everything looks easy at that time as I know where to find notes, who should I refer once I couldn't understand certain tasks and which generous friends I could copy down their answer without any sneered face.

But now, everything has changed. I couldn't feel the same convenience moment which I have experienced last time. All I could see now is a new hard life at the top of my head, waiting to be relinquished out.

It has been two months now that I've served Astea Innobiz Ventures Consultancy Services as their Safety & Health officer. I've learned a lot of things since the first day I entered the doorstep of site office in government administrative center, Putrajaya.

Reminiscing the awkward moment back there when I need to produce monthly safety report regarding the GFRC rectification work which was actively under progressed, I was bewildering whenever I went through all the documents. No one was there to guide me as no one concern about my confusion I had faced.

Well, I can't blame them for that as they were not the persons who are in-charged. The person who is responsible to show me the proper guide was officially resigned just before I get started. Meaning to say, I have no chance to confront and talk with him regarding the subject matter, not even to see his face! So, there's only one way left as they don't give me any option - I have to learn all by myself.

Back to the report, it has a quite number of sub-topic such as report progress, machinery used, workers name's list, fatalities/minor/major/serious injuries issues and many more. All these sub-topics have to be attached together in order to form a complete safety report. At certain month, the pages reached out between 50 to 60 pages. It's obviously thicker than most of my assignments during my studying years.

At my first attempt to form the report, I was fully lost and dumbfounded. I don't know what to do as no one was willing to appear and help me. I can conclude that moment was the hardest part for me so far since I work under this consultant. I need to enforce everything all by myself without any consistent help from others.

Even after I was befriended with the supervisors and engineers so that I could use them as my springboard to gain some favor, yet it seems doesn't work accordingly. At particular things, they are very resourceful while in the certain part, they give nothing, not even the subtle message.

But now, after I was successful in sailing through the hard time a month ago, I could say that I face no serious problem anymore in producing that particular report. Every page is just a piece of cake. There's nothing I should worry about. I've cover all sub-topics in order to cater all requirements from JKR, JRM, PJH and PERKESO as well. Even they noticed the lacks, I could revise them in less a day :)

Hopeless Girl and businessman

For the second consecutive time, I've nothing in mind that I wish I could dump inside this entry as I'm completely running out of ideas. Usually, I used to write down my thoughts, experiences, issues and irregularities which force my dissatisfaction sense comes alive. Unfortunately, tonight those things haven't come across over the head, not even closer.

I endured the same situation yesterday but fortunately, a relative of mine came with an effective solution as she was tagging me with a bunch of questions. I could say that It's another way of sweets escape of boredom regime. Yet today is different, there's nothing could help me to regain back those ideas even how hard the brainstorming session I have launched. Every single way I tried was ended with frustration.

Apparently, it doesn't make sense if I say there's nothing in my head. Certainly, I do have some particular points which I presume we could share together, yet the point is not really convincing enough to be cited for the time being. So, I will write them later as I assure it will be more valuable later on.

Since the idea is still dried, I managed to roam on all over my blogger-mates until stumble up upon one particular entry, which was really attracting me. This entry reveals how a businessman's point of view replying the questions issued by one particular girl who described herself is pretty, beautiful and vogue. The worst part is, the girl was publicly urge her desire to marry any rich-man who has annual income more than 500 k. Well, to read the original post, please click me

Hopeless Girl : What should I do to marry a rich guy?
I'm going to be honest of what I'm going to say here. I'm 25 this year. I'm very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. You might say that I'm greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York . My requirement is not high. Is there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all married? I wanted to ask: what should I do to marry rich persons like you? Among those I've dated, the richest is $250k annual income, and it seems that this is my upper limit. If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York CityGarden(? ), $250k annual income is not enough.

I'm here humbly to ask a few questions:

1) Where do most rich bachelors hang out? (Please list down the names and addresses of bars, restaurant, gym)
2) Which age group should I target?
3) Why most wives of the riches is only average-looking? I've met a few girls who doesn't have looks are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich guys
4) How do you decide who can be your wife, who can only be your girlfriend? (my target now is to get married)

Reply From CEO J.P Morgan :
Dear Ms. Pretty,

I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyse your situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500k, which meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I'm not wasting time here. From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The answer is very simple, so let me explain. Put the details aside, what you're trying to do is an exchange of "beauty" and "money": Person A provides beauty, and Person B pays for it, fair and square.

However, there's a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any good reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can't be prettier year after year. Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It's not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worried 10 years later.

By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with you is also a "trading position". If the trade value dropped we will sell it and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term - same goes with the marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in order to make a wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or "leased". Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you, but will not marry you. I would advice that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool.
