About SAF Yacht Club

I have been with this company since 14 May 07, and my last day of service to the club was 30 August 08. It has been really fun, though not a fantastic pay, but great colleagues. Then why do I leave?

1) Alot of pple wans me to leave my job, as I have been neglecting them
2) My seniors (Don and CY) are leaving, I dont think the new team can make it
3) My hand injury discourages me to carry heavy things
4) I need a higher pay job, coz the pay I am getting is way too low for me
5) What I want to learn, i have finished. So, it is time to move on and learn more things
6) If the club can employ people who has qualifications of O Level only for my position, I dont think there is a need for a diploma holder like me to do this job.

Diploma is nothing. But, we have the knowledge, so that you do not need to retrain us.

When I took my things, and say goodbye to everyone, I almost cried. My eyes are watery. Yes, I might be weak. But, the friendship and kindness that I have received here, are real.

When I reached home yesterday night, Jamie msged me. " Hi Eileen, sad to see you go but then again all the best to you keep in touch" So sweet of her. I shall missed her terribly, just like to Don and Cheeyang. They are really nice people, working has been fun and meaningful, just with them around, no matter how tired we may be, social events, corporate events, weddings....

I replied her " :) Not to worry You will see me around, though not everyday. I think in the whole club I miss you the most. Take care woah, we shall go shopping someday" And she is cute to reply " Ok that will be your promise to me!"

I remember, when I go around to bid farewell, rose and her hugged me. Both are like mummies to me in the club. :)

Rose's delicious lunch, Jamie's cute laughter "Oops, I forget to bring my specs/handphone today again", I looked forward to everyday when I go to work. Disturbing Chee Yang at work and chatting with him, running to Don to remind him things, going to marketing office to chat with Jason and Liyan, giving magazine to Noris to read, grid Jimmy or Sunny to help me in my event set up, going to Alice for the super nice Pulut Hitam dessert, calling Elizabeth to talk about work, hearing Ping shouting in her office to some people who disturbed her, going to Clara's room and start my conversation as "Clara Hon....", hearing Mr Sim coming from his room and say " Smoke smoke smoke, lets go", Tracey to start whining when the clock strikes 12 noon "Lunch time! Where are we eating today"....Huzaini's "Ji chi Bang" meaning chicken wing to him.... these are all part of my life for the past 15 months.

Uncle Stephen and Miss Jacklyn has been very nice to me. I am happy to hear Stephen saying that I am actually more sensible than his daughter, and he promised me if I want to have my vdae dinner with my bf next yr, he will reserve a table for me, FOC! Miss Jacklyn treated Don, CY and me for a lunch appointment for our farewell on 29th August, I had the carpetag steak, yummy! Don has Lamb, and I think he enjoys it. CY has a mixed of steak and baby chicken. Argh, it is also one of my habit to visit this nice couple almost everyday to talk about business or a small chat, and they are always treating me to food, ice cream and drinks (thats how I got fat).

The habit of changing, is really difficult. Putting down to move on, is like breaking up with a bf like dat, coz those are the people whom I have a special bond with them. :)

I hope that for those who left with me, all the best! And for those who stayed, hopefully their life there will be great and less stressful! :)
