the one where she conversed with the short man

this is so fucking hilarious [ex colleagues would know why] she had to blog this despite the mountains of paper work she has next to her. presenting the short man

short man "hello my dear, HOW ARE YOU [in that tone that sir fendy imitates well]
ms humble bee "good! mr XX. HOW ARE YOU? [in that fake tone she applies only to him cos he seems to like it]
short man "good. i wanted to talk to you about coming back to work for me"
ah-ha!
ms humble bee "oh mr XX. sorry to disappoint but i just got my PR in australia and am intending to move to melbourne in a year or so [hoping to dispel the bulldog instincts]
short man "oh...[silence] but it's ok lar, you come back and work for me, handle a few portfolios, one year also can. i also have contacts in australia. i know XX who's heads the biggest recruiting agency in australia, he can help you."
read short man's mind: i can help you get a job in australia ONLY if you quit your job now and help ME.
ms humble bee "oh? btw, how's your university business in australia doing?
short man "good! we have over 600 students.."
ms humble cum shameless bee "if you want i can go over and help you at the university"
short man "yes yes, there's definitely opportunity for you, no problems"
read short man's mind: short man probably didn't even register this thought
ms humble bee "but really, if you have someone in mind from the current interviews, please go ahead, pls pls..."
short man "no lar you work for me for so long, you know how i'm like, i would still like you to work for me. btw, how much did i pay you last time?"
ms humble bee "ermm.. $xx..."
short man "oh. don't worry about the money issue. we can always settle that later. like i said, i just want you to come back and help me look after these..."
read short man's mind: shit. i think i'll pay her $500 more and promote her to account director.
ms humble bee "ok ok ok mr XX. tell you what, i'll think about it and let you know cos i'm really not looking to moving back into this industry"
read ms humble bee's mind: "middle finger" but she's PC and didn't want to lose any opportunities (no matter how slim) in australia at this stage.
short man "ok ok, you let me know early next week?"
ms humble bee "will do, bye!"

laughs outloud. hell, don't play play huh. he know top man of recruit firm in australia yah? just as he knows top man of BMW in melbourne and wanted him to meet me when i'm there on my vacation (two years ago)?

[fendy, SHUT UP, jules stop laughing and lip, thank god you're a creative.]
