Last Week in the Office

L is finally back from his annual trip to HK. His absence of about 2 weeks has been one of the toughest periods of my working life.

First, quite a lot of major events happened during that 2 weeks which required support from my office. K & I have to work extra hours to provide the necessary support.

Second, KKC left and HWC came as a replacement. To get a replacement in this office requires a lot of admin work which is beyond our authority and control. Nevertheless, permit for HWC to enter this workplace is renewed on daily basis. It will take quite some time of processing before he gets a nod to enter this workplace permanently.

Third, when L is not around, there was quite a lot of additional work from both internal and external customers. Why this happened when we are running tight on man-power? This certainly puts on more stress on me and K.

Lastly, I realised I have accumulated quite a lot of rubbish during my 7 to 8 years in this office. So it was quite a big hassle to clear my cabinets and drawers before I hand over them to K.
