one thing i like bout my job is the interaction wit clients.
some are too demanding that it turn out to be a joke for me.
me :: mr xxx. u wanted to sell xxx but its not done at 4.10.
mr xxx :: really??? then tmw u queue at 4.50.
me :: 4.15? 4.50?
mr xxx :: (repeated either 4.15 or 4.50)
me :: huh?
mr xxx :: (4.15 or 4.50). ok? BYE! muahahahahahahhaha!
i was laughing hysterically like hyenna after putting down the phone - 4.50? that uncle is known to very demanding on stock prices.
some can give up coz the stock is getting superb low and its rather not to sell and to hold it so that in future, handsome profits can b seen.
me :: ystday i queued at 0.30. cant get.
(the history of this particular stock - bought at 1.90+, then it goes down terribly for the past 2 mths coz something happened, all the way down to 0.60, then 0.40, then 0.30)
client :: muahahahahahhaha. if like this, i dont wanna sell.
me :: yeah. although it ll b delisted from NYSE, but it will be transferred to chicago board, and u can still trade it. will be more tedious to place your order to sell, but still can trade la.
client :: yeah.
me :: maybe the price will sky rocket in 10 years time. this stock can be a long term investment.
client :: at first i bought this stock to gamble. now it need to be an asset. i think need to wait for 20 yrs.
me :: haha.
client :: haha.

world cup 2010.
i hate holland coz i like brazil.
i hate germany coz i like argentina.
i pratically shouted GOALLLL! numerous times during argie vs germany.
dad was playing with his new-toy (the fruit juice blender), ran from d kitchen to tv when i shouted during the 1st goal!
both likings failed to go into semi-f.
m supporting germany for the title.

1. thai food in sec 17
2. klcc harrords. havent been to the klcc's one. loser-nya.
3.
4.
5.
------------------------------------------------
as usual, i flipped thru my favourite (what a financial freak person... no i m not anyway... m just exaggerating that its my fav one) newspaper at work around 830am while another hand occupied with a pen to write my reports. i always read the newspaper while doing the reports before boss comes in coz i dislike when ppl read newspaper before me and messes up the newspaper pages. even at home, i ll insert the pullouts into a one fat thick newspaper before i read. anyway back to office-story, so on fri's headline on bottom front cover was something to do with genting malaysia yada yada yada.
slight before 930am, a client called.
client :: hello? where is xxx(boss)?
me :: shes .. shes.. shes at the washroom. what can i do for u?
client :: who is on the line?
me :: amanda
client :: what happen to genm?
me checking the price :: HAR!!!!! why the price goes down like this?
client :: ya, m asking u.
me :: hmmm..
client :: u go and check.
me :: ooh.. i think genm is acquiring casinos in uk. but i dont understand why the price ll go down. i thought this should be a good news.
client :: izzit? not casinos in usa? genting usa.
me :: genting uk. i read from the newspaper just now.
boss returned client's call.
boss reads out the news to client:: yada yada bla bla ding dong yada yada. the price goes down coz of genm acquiring casinos in uk yada yada. my girl told u just now rite.
u see, by just reading the headings or even the first paragraph in any articles will do.
;)

boss mood has been good!
scenario #1.
boss :: who is free to bank a cheque for me? (turning her head to colleague and i)
colleague and i quite occupied.
me :: u r very free.
boss smiles cheekily :: amanda, u bank in for me. u r more efficient (she praises me coz she needs a favour from me.. i know)
colleague mumbles and smiles :: wah, u dare to say boss is free.
me :: hahahha.
scenario #2.
boss wasnt in the room and i told colleague i want to have beer badly and asked her to join me. then boss entered the room and heard us.
boss :: why? wat happened?
colleague :: amanda wants to go pub to have beer.
boss :: ask XXX (the client i referred to in previous post). if u ask him, he will surely go.
me :: dont want.
boss :: or u ask ur frens to join and ask him along.
me:: dont want.
boss :: why not?
me :: dont want. i dont want my frens to be in the limelight.
boss :: u said u dont like him therefore ask him to join ur frens and u.
scenario #3.
i was doing boss's claims.
me talking to colleague :: gimme a client name for boss's entertainment claim.
colleague and boss named :: use client XXX name.
me :: har. him again?
but seriously its a waste that the client is old. if he isnt, i could have 'tackle' him and dont need to work my ass off in the working world. hes quite a fast thinker from a few phone conversation i had with him. i told him today that he needed to sign a form and told him the logic behind it. before i could finish the reasons to get the form sign, he understood. unlike a silly lady today, i explained to her twice ... , she still couldnt understand and said "i still dont understand, but just email me and i sign la". that lady is a blur sotong. i saw her before and i know shes a lady with confused-character from the way she fills in the opening account forms - multiple errors and gotta give her a few new forms.
last sunday i asked dad if i can dont work coz m sick of working. he replied "cannnnnnn! unless u find a rich husband".
-brazil vs holland today-
m going for the samba boys!

me :: its ZZZ n YYY price. i queued for u at those prices boss told me to do ystday.
c :: so when did u start working?
me :: (answered)
c :: previously where before this?
me :: (answered)
c :: its a good choice to change to current company.
me :: not really coz previous co has more benefit in each sector.
c :: its true but u get to learn more in current one.
me :: can learn more in previous one, depends on who is the boss. so you want me to keep on queueing at ZZZ n YYY price till done.
c :: yes, coz i need the money. the market should be good after world cup.
me :: ooh. but market was good in certain days during world cup. this world cup doesnt really effect the market. bla bla bla .
c :: whats stock WWW price.
me :: its at WWW price.
c :: inform me if the price is above WWW price.
me :: ok.
--------------------------------
3 minutes before market close.
me :: hello, confirm sold WWW stock at 1.50 price.
c :: so u got the price. whats the price now.

c :: wah, u got the price i wanted. not bad. maybe coz of u.

its kinda impossible to get the remaining stock to sell at a price he quoted for maybe 2 weeks (or even a mth) but i need to queue it everday.

colleague :: he just want to talk to u for a mth.

me :: haha. yuck. i will not marry him although hes rich.
i mind on age gap. ;)

chicago the windy city, i miss u.
each time i see the millenium gate aka beanie in anywhere in d net, i remind myself 'someday sometime i ll be there again".
i regretted that i didnt have a single nice photo in chicago. d camera was running out of memory spaces and i didnt have pendrive nor laptop to transfer d pics out. and fren set the pics in her camera to small size. therefore i cant develope a single nice shot. obviously disappointed and angry.
i prefer chicago than newyork. cleaner. more locals. good public transport. lots of museums. theres a msian restaurant in china town when i was there. but its not a wise place to shop, tax imposed on clothes are high. not sure how many %, but its d highest in states.

rule #
# 1 - Have a good relationship with your remisier/assistant.
# 2 - Do not phone your remisier/assistant zillion times to check on the stock. Just inform them what are you looking for, and they will inform you when the time comes eg tell them to inform u if stock ZZZ is at RM YY.
# 3 - Do not take advantage of your remisier/assistant. Eg, ask them for extra double cheese added value service - request for 10 application forms. We aren't suppliers. If you want 50 forms for god-knows-why, go to their office or request for 50 at one go. Don't ask for 20, and then 30 a week later.
# 4 - Do not always revise your price to buy/sell in a day. It irritates remisier/assistant although its your duty to irritate them. ;)
# 5 - Do not be over-demanding. Eg if XXX stock is @ RM 1, you tell them to inform you when its @ RM 1.50. When RM 1.50 comes, you tell them to inform you @ RM 1.70. When RM 1.70 comes, inform @ RM 2. Conclusion, just ask them to call you when its @ RM 2. lol.
# 6 - If you dont trust your remisier/assistant, do research on the stock they ask you to buy. The choice is at your hands thou. Remember that no stocks are a 'guarantee-return-stock'. If you are told by them that buy today, tmw i bet you ll get handsome profit, it might be true but .... Nobody is God to predict it.
# 7 - Do not blame your remisier/assistant if the price you wanted was unattainable. The duty of stock executor is to get the best price at client's interest.
# 8 - Do not place your order 30 minutes before the market close and ask for a ridiculous price. We arent God, miracle seldom happens in stock market.
# 9 - After you have sold your stocks, do tell them if you need the sales cheque to be issued to you. For your information, you sell today, cheques can only be issued 3 trading market days later. Why? Bursa needs to do some paper work and bla bla bla. This is the rule la for most of the stock markets around the world. Only Hong Kong market takes 2 trading market days. If you want your sales proceed cash to be in your account, do tell them. Do not blame them on "why my cheque isnt out yet". Donkey, because you didnt request. But most of the remisiers will ask you if you need it. Then give your bank account, no harm. Nobody will sabotage your money in the account.
Well well well, ... if you are really a pain in the ass of a remisier / assistant, No if you are a pain in the ass of the assistant / stock executor .... you will not get the best service in town. Because stock executor is the one who execute stocks for you in the market. Be nice to them. haha. Joking. Just be nice to them and if they love you, you will get the best-est price.
# 2 - Do not phone your remisier/assistant zillion times to check on the stock. Just inform them what are you looking for, and they will inform you when the time comes eg tell them to inform u if stock ZZZ is at RM YY.

june is ending.
first day of the next mth is coming, means that i gotta do reports next week.
sucks.
m feeling extremely tired.
took half day MC ystday.
boss jokingly said that i went for interview.
i have planned to take few days of leave soon.
but since wit the MC ystday, damn it, will boss approve my leave?
ooh well maybe. ;)
m totally broke.
rm100+ left in my bank account.
no, silly, i didnt buy stocks.
i dare not buy because i have unrealised losses of rm7k in ONE STOCK.
i wouldnt say it was a bad choice to buy that particular stock, because the positive outcome can only be seen when the economy is FULLY recovered.
there isnt ANY signs that global economy has or going to recover.
this is my two cents.
anyway my every-mth-salary goes to my every-sat-activity.
expensive activity.
it could be for dietary programme?
could be scuba diving lessons?
could be preparation for marriage?
could be flying to brunei every week?
could be ... cant think of any.
muahahahahahahhahaaaaaa.
