1st day in Mindef

>> Monday, December 20, 2004

Ok, first day going Mindef and felt like lost sheep among many crabs, haha. Woke up so early today at 6.30 am. The whole area is very big and contains at least 3 camps. We have to take a mini-bus from the main guard room to another guard room and were wandering around some buildings before we found Mindef building. Asked some people where Joint Manpower Department is and were wandering around basement 1 before we found people from the department. We were all slightly nervous when we found out that we will be separated to different sub departments in JMPD. An attractive woman was introducing us to the department and describing the jobscope to us. Everyone in the department is really nice and friendly to us. Luckily, most of us are in the same office although separated into different sub departments. Me and Lian Guo received our 1st task, which is cutting a star and sticking cotton wool on a cardboard wing as some Christmas props. Finished them in a jiffy and went for tea-break which is between 10 to 11 am. Met up with David in the canteen and he was going for a department cohesion later in the day. The canteen is huge with 2 levels and have around 16 stalls which sells rather cheap. Had a tou suan for 80 cents. After that, i was basically staring into blank space, disturbing Daryl with some stationery and reading the news on the intranet. Time passes really slowly when there is absolutely nothing to do. Found some Landy photos and some sexy girls' photos in someone's account. There happens to be a number of encrypted folders containing photos which me and Daryl suspects to be p*rn. Junchen is rather busy during that time coz he was tasked to prepare a conference room for a meeting and had to be the kopi boy. Lunchtime is between 1 to 2 pm and we headed back to the huge canteen again. The bad thing about going canteen is the trouble of going to another building and getting past the security gates. Afternoon was rather busy coz we had to transfer 3 cupboards full of files to another room. We made 3 staffs for the Christmas props using newspapers after that. Left for home at around 5.45 pm. Slept in the bus until people woke me up when i should be getting down the bus at the interchange.
