My World, My Future

After 3 weeks in Intel, I am convinced that I have made the correct choice. I love my job. I am now in the ideal environment to work in and I am happy with my task.

To many, the impression that they have on Intel is a pressure cooker like place to work in. But if you would ask me, well it is indeed very stressful but it is this stress that put us forward in front of our competitor. Healthy internal stress made me grow.

'Great Place to Work', that is one of our six Intel's core value. Just by this, it shows how much effort we have placed just for our comfort. Practicing flexi-hour and allowing work from home are great news for me and many other mainlander. We need not have to rush our way through that 2 narrowed lanes on Penang Bridge.

As an MNC, we have people working here from all different background...race, age, nationality and etc. Hence the oneness is a very important factor here. English is our key to unity. All official documents and meetings are conducted in English.

But sometimes, we just got drifted away. As most of us are of 1 race, we tend to speak in our own dialect. So recently we have launched another interesting campaign pertaining to this. It is called 'Stop Kilikulu'. Posters can be seen everywhere...even in the toilet.

Just got my pay this week...and I did a wonderful thing. It is my pledge and commitment to the community. Something which I have in my mind since last year after the Famine-30 program. I have signed up to sponsor a child...RM50 per month to feed and provide the necessities to him/her. Really hope these children would get all they need.

And of course....I have to reward myself for the hard work...so on Friday night, I have Japanese buffet in Tao...was too hungry for photographs...yummy! The best dishes there are the grilled salmon, scallop and butterfish, chawan mushi, lamb shoulder steak, sashimi, handrolls and many more.



this is our first round serving

And bought my family a lunch in Swensen on Sunday...my pepperoni and cheese pizza was excellent...surely better than Pizza Hut's....

wow! i like the campaign and the objectives are interesting.. :)

it is hard to actually get everybody to not used dialects whilst working and over here in the UK, the local colleagues would feel it offensive to actually hear us converse in our mother tongue even though we meant no harm. yes, english should be the main spoken language anywhere.

so nice to reward one's self after hard work. and you decided to go to the two places i've not been to! hahahaha.. :P
