927落戶 crocs hk

老實講, 去到9月, 我想做工既心態好強烈. 呢兩個幾月見工機會貴精不貴多, 10零份, 幾份我好有興趣咋, 亦測試到以我未qualified既學歷喺出面係幾難返紙公司既人工. 不過, 世事就係奇妙.
send application去crocs時打錯application position, 隔日發現更正再send. 喺我瞓晏覺時就打黎叫我面試.
之前見工都唔會同人講見邊間, 黎到去crocs面試時間, 咁啱同朋友傾偈食飯就提左crocs, 自己都覺機會大, 好心機去搵料, 準備應對. 公司要2年經驗, 無理由我搞唔掂既!
第一次見HR, 有晒準備過到關, 佢叫我留多陣等Finance Manager, 即是2nd in啦~過兩日之後再去見Senior Accountant. 佢講一句呢個位做A樣野同我之前既做法差唔多, 有機!
星期五坐巴士去上環HR打黎confirm, 好, 我接受. 最感謝佢offer價大過我expected但小過我last. 無相干, 若以工作時計, 之前9至6點半, 而家9至6, 收少D無問題.
由我去crocs office, 見到meeting room對住海景, 員工衣著causal, 一人一對crocs鞋, 感覺良好又似以前第一份工賣textbooks果間, 兜兜轉轉, representative office/trading company就係我既落腳地.
雖然查到去年傳出crocs會倒閉, 生意飽和, 但我睇annual reports仍然有可為. 無論環境如何, 我都想一直於crocs工作, 不要轉工啊~~

體驗高級和地道之旅 10-12Sep10

終於到了星期五, 中午在屯門西鐵站坐直通巴上中山石岐, 單程$100, 來回無折扣. 由澳門經珠海去中山石岐, 只rmb35來回, 有無搞錯??!?!?!
直通巴經深圳灣過關, 第一次走西部通路, 長長大橋就如澳門過氹仔, 河上有一排排疑似魚苗的木排, 很得意. 屯門去深圳灣只20分鐘, 真近, 不用去上水轉火車到羅湖, 省錢又省時. GOOD!
約3小時行程就到了富華酒店總站, 這裡走路過去喜來登只數分鐘. 辦理住房手續就乘升降機上18樓...
嘩 )*o*( !!!房很大呀~~設施新淨~~浴室的玻璃牆可自動落廉架~~床很大又軟~~好多S標記物品, 包著拖鞋的鞋袋比環保袋仲靚~~沐浴洗漱set茶包咖啡感覺高級, 當然要回家~~原子筆和紙都要攞走^^ 再看一看泳池, 健身室, 地下和露天休閒天地, 真要好好享受所有設施!
對不起, 這是我首次入住5星級酒店, 所以特別興奮 -_-"
不過不過, 相信由於酒店仍很新(出世一個月), 我房的雪柜根本不凍, 後面頂部還熱的. 另洗面的去水位那蓋子不能按製去水, 要手動拿起.

3日2夜行程如下:
Day 1: 參觀酒店 - 閒逛步行街和食點東西 (西餐廳收費不便宜) - 回酒店游水 - 乘巴士往粥城 (本想去龍瑞, 去了沙溪粥城, 食夜夜粥店分店) - 凌晨打的回酒店
Day 2: 參觀在步行街的紀念館 (免費) - 乘三輪車往石岐佬中菜館 (樣樣都貴過街外, 出左名係咁) - 閒逛大信新都滙 - 回酒店健身 - 乘巴士往龍瑞粥城, 食美味燒生蠔, 炒花甲 - 乘巴士回酒店游水 (雖然下著雨), 桑拿 - 回房食西瓜, 沖涼焗油
Day 3: 收拾帶走所有酒店"贈品"退房 - 參觀博物館 (免費) - 食小炒, 炒鹿肉炒不好 - 參觀博物館 (免費) - 往國際酒店車站, 乘直通巴回港
石岐公園, 孫中山公園, 留待下次吧, 如果還有...
感想: 除了乳鴿, 中山就好像沒有第二樣出名食物. 街邊很多酸辣粉舖, 奶茶, 燒烤店, 但都不是本地的. 超市幾乎很難找, 便利店也不多. 步行街多賣服裝/婚紗. 所謂大型百貨也普普通通. 溫泉區不在石岐, 沒去.
有人說我沒有在今次短途旅行發脾氣, 是讚賞嗎?o? 那邊天氣是時陰時雨,

P.S. 今次酒店優惠是從travelzoo獲知, 此網會網網羅所有旅遊資訊, 然後發送給閱讀者.

出"短"門~

8月尾收到promotion話大酒店超特價低至5折.
中山喜來登剛於8月中開幕, 豪華房由rmb1012/房推廣至rmb506連稅~
本想9月外遊, 很久沒出門了 (不計澳門), 日本機票酒店匯率都很貴, 韓國也好不了多少, 先擱置. 看見這優惠, 想體驗5星級酒店服務, 就去吧~~
中山, 我來也~~~

停電的不同反應

9/9凌晨0時30分, 電腦突然熄機, 冷氣停了, 燈也熄了. 噢! 整座大廈和另一座都停電!! 是因為黃昏開始不停的閃電和雷聲嗎? 那時一閃就像白天一樣光, 雷聲又擾人, 深夜才傾盆大雨.
我的反應首先以為自家電製跳錶, 用電話光照射查看, 無問題, 開門探頭見對面屋都說無電, 可電梯和走廊燈還運作.
我不害怕停電. 待了10數分鐘還未恢復原狀, 唯有睡覺去, 落雨令天氣涼一點.
我爸呢, 他第一次遇上這種事, 感覺到他有點怕, 但他不讓我致電管理處. 為什麼? 無幫助都可以查問原因啊! 我們是業主呀! 可打不通. 他後來問要不要拔掉所有電源, 以免短路. 不會的, 不用理會啦. 又說很奇怪走廊還有燈. 我想是住房電跟走廊的是不同機房吧.
他就坐在大廳等...
我媽就只顧兒甥仔, 後來才出來跟爸說話. 我想要安撫的應是我爸.
約1小時後, 電力恢復了, 安心睡覺.

以後, 我要存放好小電燈和記住放置地方!

求職中體會...

兩個月過後, 還是沒有心儀公司給我一份工作.
確曾緊張擔心厭倦心灰沮喪, 也有欣喜和滿有信心時, 可惜...我那方面不可取?
不要緊, 我還有時間, 未有經濟問題, 我亦已成熟, 靜待喜歡的工作吧~~

interview機會不多, 好些job application我都只是just send to test market value.

我試過:
  • 覺得1st interview表現不好和工作範圍不是所想的而於電話拒絕2nd interview
  • 為省時間和車費, 要求即日interview卻沒有時間準備而失敗
  • 因HR太夜致電不去interview
  • 工作不適合和HR晚7,8時call而自己致電推卻offer
  • 三個星期裡1st interview, 2nd in, phone interview, 之後是失望...

當初, 我想為慈善機構服務, 1個月後才知jobsdb, careertimes有by industry function on job search, 走錯方向. 可惜其後沒有什麼合適的accounting posts. 現實是我不能將薪金要求減一半去做應徵慈善機構的junior posts, 就算我肯, 機構都會以為我騎牛搵馬. 還是一同試商業non-profit org.

好簡單, 我要求工作和公司符合以下數點.
  • MNC
  • 5-day work per week
  • 10+day of annual leave
  • double pay
  • medical and dental insurance
  • stable job, no need development
  • no traveling to china
  • preference on management reporting

看看CV, 沒有持續義務工作經驗, ACCA professional stage未完成, language skills普通. 要在那方面進修呢? 有點迷茫. 我看書看戲/新聞聽好講好英文普通話, 報了屯門醫院義工但未有電話, 考試就免了.
