I had the most DRAMAMAMAMA day in my life today.

New work started off like shit.

I got 2 colleagues – I shall name them K and R.

K – super hypertension working machine that needs some cleaning to remove dirt (eg. vulgarities) and extreme menopauses

R – super well-dressed poser? I don’t know what has she been busying with. seriously.

These 2 are supposed to hand over the previous girl’s job to me. I am like uber stressed up because I need to learn things from scratch and the important stuff pertaining to budget!

So the first 2 days, I had a taste of being screamed and shouted at by K in front of my temporary boss (current boss is away on maternity leave) and colleagues from other units. Anxiety = mistakes. I admitted I broke down on the 2nd day.

3rd day – K kept telling me about how I will be “SCREWED” by the boss when she comes back from maternity leave because I can’t get the things right. Kept threatening me and telling me how bad my boss is. Fucking crazy.

4th day – Work becomes a burden. It’s depressing. I decided to call Singapore Mint and see if I still have a chance to go for a 2nd rd of interview with them (cause when they called me for a 2nd rd of interview. I have already got this job)

Today (5th day) – I have had enough. Stupid culture and stupid co-workers.  I talked to HR. I think it’s stupid. I hate this environment. They told me to try. In the end, my boss who is away on maternity leave heard my problem and wanted me to give her a call.

The first time I talked to my new boss. She is totally soft-spoken and v. friendly. Perhaps it’s just another facade but I don’t know. I would rather believe that she is nice.  She told me another side of her story

- She has not been happy with K’s bad temper and the way she talks and treats ppl

- R is a lazy bum

She was not the only one who said that. HR, the GM’s secretary and temp boss all knew that the 2 colleagues had a serious problem. They wanted to make me stay. “I will ensure that you are shielded and guided along the way. Bear with it k until I come back” this was what she assured me. Things got better.

Later, the secetary had a talk with K. They had a tiff. Boss had a talk with K. And K came to the meeting with swollen eyes.

Evening, temp boss asked “ask ur fren to send me her resume. k’s leaving”

How drama is that?

The best part? Singapore Mint is offering me a job. Monday to tell me the renumeration package.

If you were me. What will you do?
