Ability is what you're capable of doing.

Motivation determines what you do.

Attitude determines how well you do it.

Do the ordinary things better than anyone else, day in day out.

Hahaha...this drama is I created one...

What happen was...one of the H&B buyer went to approach Miss Chew directly...the Leaflet pages have been reduce because the Leaflet cycle from a Bi-weekly publication have been changed to a Weekly output but still maintain with a 2-weeks promotion duration. Because of a faster turnaround...of course the Leaflet pages have to be reduce lor...so, the H&B buyer tak puas hati lor...

Then, Miss Chew come to look for me lor...not that I do not want to give...but there is no room to give...furthermore, our department activities also needs to be highlighted mah...Miss Chew also got come up with a proposal...to alternate it...ok lor, I can accept but the H&B buyer still tak puas hati...and also very stubborn...

I stood up...gently turn the H&B buyer around to the H&B workstation...the H&B buyer's body betul-betul stiff, don't want to bug off...I told the H&B buyer to think about it...and I also say that we are not letting you go back empty handed...think about Miss Chew's proposal and revert back to us...then, I tambah...Miss Chew is usually not this nice, today Miss Chew have been very nice...hahaha...

Hahaha...both Aidan & Miss Chew cannot be harap one lah...

Aidan is only here for a few months; running the ground...even though Aidan have shared with me that The Mayor wants Aidan to stay on for a year...

Uncle Andy is indeed correct...The Mayor memang solve problems with The Mayor way lah...hahaha...

Miss Chew...all this while memang don't like to take responsibilities one...

So, what happen was...before Miss Chew left...Mr. Horton's Secretary was leading the Senior Citizen 3% Campaign...both Aidan & Miss Chew did not inform The Penjaga Team lor (our another sister business)...Mr. Horton's Secretary already pre-empted the both of them...but as usual lah...tak buat lor...or tak mahu buat lah...then when the emails start flying around...Miss Chew start pointing and accusing lor...but to Mr. Horton's Secretary's point is also correct...Miss Chew is the head of the department mah...hahaha...drama betul...

Ooh...people are indeed watching...hahaha...

What happen was...one of the A&P budak - Ismail; got shared with me lah...Ismail also know how to comment on Miss Chew...Miss Chew looking into small small things...things that are important but not vital...for example...the artwork of the leaflet, the product positioning, the price blurb etc...but not looking at the bigger picture of things...

For trade - product & price are already stagnant...sometimes we win in price, the other times; the competitors will win lor...what we lack are the amplifier to ramp things up...we don't have loyalty card, e-commerce is non-existent...we don't invest in vouchers etc...when Marcus or Hanis was still around, at least there are partnership activities with banks, e-wallets...now under Miss Chew...nothing at all...

I discovered something...hahaha...between this Aidan & the Digital Millennial...let's connect the dots here ya...

First, it was the word Kor...I somehow imagine it as a manja tone from the Digital Millennial...

Then, the Digital Millennial can refuse not to report to the SG Brand Lady wor...

Third...before Aidan balik to HK, Aidan gave each team member a Christmas present...with a note from it...the note paper...is from those Disney note pads...then, that day, I also passed by Aidan's table...saw those note pads...fine...then - I saw on Heidi's table...got one Christmas present from the Digital Millennial...fine...but on the Christmas present itself...also have a note tie to it...fine...but the note paper hor...is from the Disney pile...coincidence?

Wah, this piece of information lagi gempak...

From one of the Fresh Trade Planners...

The Mayor actually very sayang Miss Chew...apparently it is The Mayor who advise Miss Chew to take a sabbatical leave and not the HR.

Miss Chew kena DI (Domestic Inquiry) because of an ex-staff lodge a report against Miss Chew.

And in down south...Miss Y-C also kena complaint...from the Commercial Team...I find Miss Y-C is very arrogrant...so not surprise that will make Miss Y-C's style as very harsh, rude, no respect, unreasonable, finding fault with people lor...

Apparently now, in the SG TPO meeting - Miss Y-C is still inside the meeting but no longer chair it and quiet all the time. Nimal already take the lead.  

Miss Y-C said will transfer in February...jadi ke tak jadi...tak tahu lah...

I also suspect that Miss Y-C and the SG Brand Lady also may not see eye to eye on many things...

And Nimal, is suppose to take over Miss Y-C role wor...confusing...

In the YTG meeting last week...the Partnership Lady already make an appearance...  

Strømsø videregående skole, Drammen


Gossip! Again!...hahaha...from Stephane...I find that the Mayor's team in both countries are very complicated...sometimes, I also very pity the Mayor...got Miss Chew, Miss Y-C, the SG Brand Lady hovering around the Mayor like lalat...not easy combination...all sure very ma fan...

So what happen was...the Mayor was thinking to consolidate everything under the SG Brand Lady...since Miss Y-C will be transferring to the Commercial Team soon...then, all of a sudden, appear this Partnership Lady...this Partnership Lady will be taking over Miss Y-C's role...and the new chap; Nimal which was earlier mention as Miss Y-C's replacement but actually is under Miss Y-C, reporting to Miss Y-C...ish...so confusing...then hor, this Partnership Lady told the Mayor that this Partnership Lady do not want to report to the SG Brand Lady...hahaha...

Aidan did comment previously that both Miss Y-C and the SG Brand Lady's character are very punchy...hahaha...

St. Hallvard videregående skole, Lier


Gossip! Gossip! Hahaha...

Samuel shared that...the Digital Millennial informed Aidan that the Digital Millennial don't want to report to the SG Brand Lady...surprise...surprise...then when the SG Brand Lady visited our office last week...the both of them no talking wor...the Digital Millennial initially was reporting to Miss Chew...then Miss Chew naik the Digital Millennial pangkat but have to report to the SG Brand Lady...

Live your best life. 

Rosthaug videregående skole, Modum


I often wonder if I choose the path or did the path choose me?

You will have many cross roads over the course of your life time, even dead ends. Stop worrying about the future, sometimes we're not supposed to know where the path is going to lead us...because if we did, we wouldn't understand.

I believe that you reap what you sow in all facets. Be a crappy human, you'll get what's coming to you. Put in minimal work in the gym, you'll get minimal results. It's just how it is, and I like it like that. Sets the workers apart from the lazy.

So today, tell yourself, you will always harvest what you plant. Whether it be the good deed you decided to do, or the heavy lift session you accomplished. If you do it consistently, you'll have an abundance. Take heart in that. 

Numedal videregående skole, Nore og Uvdal


We all have dreams but in order to make dreams reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, self-discipline and effort. Through daily practice, we develop healthy habits and it is these habits that will determine the quality of our life.

If you want something you never had, you have to do something you've never done...but whatever you do, make sure to enjoy the ride...

After I have heard it...memang teruk betul this Miss Chew...what kind of leader is this? You are suppose to unite everyone, not divide everyone and create mistrust...

The Graphic Designer mention to me...that this Miss Chew told the POSM colleague to be careful of Heidi when Heidi is release to do event early next year...because Heidi very clever to ular and all the work will ask the POSM colleague to do...adoi...

And this POSM colleague - also satu lagi...the POSM colleague rather being scolded by Miss Chew everyday than rather stand up to make decision, take the accountability and shoulder the responsibility. No matter how teruk Miss Chew will scold the POSM colleague, the POSM colleague rather have Miss Chew than Aidan...haiz...must approach this POSM colleague differently...only want to be spoon-fed and do the work only... 

Lier videregående skole, Lier


Hmm...Aidan WatsApp me...needed help...actually its not from Aidan, it was from The Digital Millennial...Miss Chew punya konco lah...

The Digital Millennial: Kor, I need your help...

I also address Aidan at times as Bro...but somehow...my gut feel lah...hahaha...this Kor...thingy; coming from The Digital Millennial...looks like the both of them is quite close lah...because I perceive the Kor here not as informing or instruction but more of; with a manja tone...

Anyway - this Digital Millennial also mengada-ada...transition belum buat...sendiri go and kejar lah...ish...ish...

When Aidan share with me the messages earlier on - I only replied back to Aidan this - Case already close mah. Now you know why I scared...imagine if Miss Chew is still around... 

Anyway, after all the hoo ha...Aidan WatsApp me...

Aidan: Miss Chew didn't talk to me today.

Me: Tomorrow morning, u just go and greet Miss Chew. Will be ok already. After my case also, I make the first move. Miss Chew ok already.

Aidan: Haha, I was normally say good morning while Miss Chew no response. I would continue to say good morning at least I do my part haha...

Me: All will be well...

Hahaha...kesianya Aidan...Miss Chew sememangnya kecil hati...not the bigger-hearted person in the room... 

Hønefoss videregående skole, Ringerike


Aidan shared Miss Chew WatsApp message to the Agency in which Aidan replied that Aidan also don't know how to response at all...

The Agency replied back: I'm so sorry you had to go through this also Aidan. It is...such an emotional message. No matter the situation, we is with you on focusing on solutions. And I can tell you that, after our call this morning (& the great feedback I heard from everyone during the workflow session today), we are prepared to die for you. 

I don't know why Aidan shared this with me...sympathy votes ke...hahaha...

Hønefoss videregående skole, Ringerike


Aidan kena again from Miss Chew...

Miss Chew: What's this? Why r u always excluding the subject person in the matter? I am really very unhappy and I just think I should just leave. Regardless the terminology wrong, the creative is also not supposed to be repeating same header on facing ads. That's creative 101...

My opinion - Miss Chew should have just leave and don't come back please. There is so much of peace without Miss Chew being around in the office...the Agency WatsApp chat group also no more bising like pasar...hahaha...

First of all, regarding the above case...Miss Chew ask me to booked a 2-pager press ad...so I also book a 2-pager press ad lor...fronting ads format is much cheaper than the 1 bleed format. Plus Miss Chew also did not mention what ad format to booked. Anyway, I am ok if the header are the same...running out of time for output jor lah...as though customer will notice anything...dah lah the LPTL lines is also not pushing the needle...

Aidan is stepping in...helping us out...Aidan is very good in bringing everyone together...organize meetings to clarify and understand...Miss Chew never does that... 

Hurum videregående Steinerskole, Hurum


Hahaha...Aidan WatsApp me...because this Miss Chew WatsApp Aidan the message below...

Miss Chew: One last thing on my mind - just to be transparent, I hope you can take the decisions you made for the My biz more seriously. My observation - you can be very 'chin chai' on the decision made. 

Aidan ask me what is 'chin chai'...I jawab balik 'kau kei'...hahaha...

Gol videregående skole, Gol


Another WatsApp message that was being shared around...hahaha...

Aidan: And hey, I know some time it is hard to work with Miss Chew with her easily to go emotional mode. Let's see what I can do to help...

This, I want to laugh...I think Aidan also cannot tahan with this Miss Chew...also don't want to stir up fire...out of respect purposes...I think that the both of them also have a lot of rifts as well...hahaha...

Eiker videregående skole, Øvre Eiker


Aidan's WatsApp message to Mr. Horton's Secretary which Mr. Horton's Secretary shared with Samuel & myself...hahaha...this has been quite sometime now...  

Aidan: I want TP to focus to TP work honestly. And like what we talked yesterday 9.45...they are trying to empowering TP to propose the promotion item building blocks. Which is a good start. If The Eagle can endorse you girls work, then TP shall get better backup when dealing with Commercial.

Mr. Horton's Secretary already make the observation that until now, at the end of the day...still the 3 of us anchoring TP...Aidan have provides no help at all; just like Miss Chew. Aidan only helps to lay down the structure and processes thus far...

The Eagle - The Eagle's arrival have been a breath of fresh air...what the business really needed...unfortunately...lately can sense that The Eagle's dialogue have also been changed...hahaha...margin...income...The Eagle have also already been contaminated...hahaha... 

How to empower...already pre-populate for the Commercial Team...if they refuse to give, they just refuse...like the PWP example...table in the YTG meeting since mid-November...no update is no update...that day in the meeting...I also mention to The Mayor & The Eagle...with these Commercial people...really 'tau jeong meng'...


Dyrmyr videregående skole, Kongsberg


Wah...this Miss Chew...I don't know what is the right word to describe Miss Chew...

So, Miss Chew is currently on sabbatical leave lor...but hor...that day Commercial Town Hall via Teams...Miss Chew also got log in wor...wah...and then Mr. Horton's Secretary also notices...that in one of the TPO meeting...Miss Chew also got log in and can give an emoji Like somemore...is Miss Chew such a worrier...cannot let go...

Uncle Andy only commented that Miss Chew wants to feel relevant...still in touch with things even though Miss Chew is away wor...I still say that this Miss Chew is insecure...
