The Carpenter's House
An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer of his plans to leave the house building business and spend more time with his family.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favour and the carpenter agreed.
However, it was plain to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials.
When the carpenter finished his work, his employer handed the front-door key to the carpenter and said, "This is your house; my gift to you."
The poor carpenter was in shock and shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the shoddy home he had built.
Is this the same with us? We may be building our lives in such a distracted way, by reacting rather than acting, by putting in the least instead of our best.
Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house.
Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity.
"Life is a do-it-yourself project." Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

There is about 6 new sales people that report to work today and they are parking their cars anyhow and everywhere on the 1 way no though road like their father owned the place. I guess the standard of these sales people is getting lousier and lousier by the batch…
What can I say? Same shit different day?
And I thought after the office “beach” had left I can have my lunch rest without her coming into the 2nd floor screaming as if she got Fcuk by ghost or something but it seem that I was wrong and now this B.P has taken over the job of getting fcuk by ghost because he came screaming this afternoon when I was having my God given much needed lunch nap…
I wonder WTF is wrong with these monkey that K.T employed? I know the office will sent them for medical check before employing them, but I guess the management has forget to send these monkey to the funny farm to get their bloody head check….

Ms L. sent in the car with a faulty clutch slave pump and after checking I was told that the part will take 2 months to get here if I would to order today. I was like what? Anyway the owner of the car is not pleased when I informed her of the waiting time for the spare parts and the repair cost.
I check with J.N and I was told that there is a 120% loading to the owner if we were to fly in the parts from the factory which I cannot understand what is it so when it is not the customer’s fault in the 1st place, I hold my words as I believe that it will do no help to the fact that we still do not have the part and there is no reason for me pissed him off.
Then I got a call from prawn telling me that the main warehouse may have the parts and asked me to check it out tomorrow.
*sigh*
