Mud Pot

I don't know how to deal with this.

Was it the unimaginable pain in the past that made me the me today?

Scars

Life events are things that aren't things you can forget.
Painful past experiences somehow leave a deeper scar.
But so does every other events, they leave a mark somewhere in your memory.
They can't be erased. You live with it for the rest of your life.

So what does it mean when people say they're Over something?
It simply meant you got over that particular event, that it
does not hurt like it used to.
You are able to talk freely without getting emotional.

That's getting over something.

But like I said earlier, these memories aren't erased.
Some point in life later, you can still find yourself recalling the moments
when you heard songs, saw things, go to places that reminded you of the past.
You find that you're still able to recollect those memories.
In full detail.

The difference now is that, past events were already in the past.
At that point of time, there are things to be told, things to clear before you can move on.
Not everyone can practise this, and they rather leave it in the dark, or chose not to deal with it.
Time can tell a story.
Time can heal alot of pain.

But if you choose to avoid, it's never going to solve itself.

What is Wrong?

KNNCCB. What tactful reply was that?

Anyway my problem became his cos all I have to do is just cc the necessary people. Do we have to go to that extreme to get things done? What about building some people relation amongst team mates? I guess for this individual, it just didn't happen. I need to be mean and obsessed with getting my things done, one way or the other. So screw you.

What's in a Password?

Truth to be said, I am one unhappy owner of at least 8 passwords (or so) I needed in order for work to progress smoothly.

And not to forget the tediousness of having to request for my passwords to be reset via 'proper channels', the amount of time it takes to relay from one party to another to finally come a full circle back to me.

Some geniuses came up with password creation policy, which is an oxymoron. Oxymoron. Why you'd ask? Isn't that necessary to ensure that strong passwords are created for maximum security?

Hello there. It works when you have only ONE password to remember.
When you have 8 fancy different passwords, I think people spend more time sending reset ID forms rather than spend it doing what they are paid to do.

Plus, when you keep sending reset ID forms to your boss the whole day to reset different passwords, it only make sense that they get annoyed too.

So, we the concerned employees, will resort to writing them down (on papers, notebooks, STICKY NOTES) and place them on the desk, for convenient reference.

It defeats the security purpose right away, no?

On another note, here are some funny passwords I came across.
It's funny how we are 'guarded' with fancy password creation policy (most of the time obliged to)
They are pretty fed up with it. So fed up with the matter that they get expressive:

User ID: ******66
Password: mangkuk3

*LOL*

Totally Annoyed

We, the citizens of this country can call ourselves the victim of bad leadership.
Everywhere we turn, we see non-competent people leading the pack.
What's with the satay-ing culture of pleasing a**holes who cared about nothing but profit?

What about the 80mio fiasco of running only 33 laps?
Ouch. That stinging wound sting real bad.
We, the taxpayers funded that fiasco we have no say over.
Was the Meteorology Department not relevant in reversing the decision?
What about the drivers concerns?
After all, they are the ones driving this event.

Bah.
Just plain satay-ing.
