A few entries back, I said something about getting a memo for doing something stupet. Well last night, the superior went up to my station and said, "Penny do you have a minute? I have papers for you to sign." Those words ate me and I thought OH SHIT THIS IS IT. So I took a deep breath, stood up and followed her. In my mind I kept saying OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! When we got to her station, she laid three sets of papers for me to sign, one copy goes to Human Resource, one for me and one for her. She was smiling, I guess that’s a good thing, I thought to myself. 
When I sat down and read the words on the paper, "To Ms. Monasterial" followed by more words which I’ve read before when she issued me the memo, I was thinking, hmm… what could be different or added to this memo? She prolly noticed my eyes going back and forth from the starting paragraph down to the mid part and realized that I was stupid not to figure out the verdict was at the bottom. So she pointed it out with a pen, "It’s right here Penny, your punishment and this is where you sign." I replied with an "OH OK" and with an I-knew-that tone.
It said Im suspended for two days although there was an erasure on the word two, it could have said five for all I know. I tried to keep a straight face when I signed, but I couldnt help smiling. Haaayyy buti suspension lang! I thought I was gonna be fired. She said I can choose when I could spend the two days, whether I use it consecutively or not, though her advise was to use it separately cus we can’t afford to lose staff on certain days, she also advised that Tuesdays are when we’re at full force so I could use it then. She even asked if I planned to go somewhere for a vacation, this would be perfect because I have Sundays and Mondays off. Tee-yoos-day is awesome! (as Helga would say it)
I went out to drink with a friend that day. It wasn’t planned, she just felt stressed and so we decided to go on a brunch. By brunch I mean, two 500ml bottles of Colt45 in a Nipa Hut (we’d like to call Acapulco) at a nearby talyer under the blazing sun and imagining there’s sand and beach water. Apparently, she had a lot of deadlines to meet and her efforts are futile. But I think she’s doing ok. While drinking I was also going online via WAP on my phone and Twittering about the Rubiks Cube with Pau. But my battery died out on me and my friend decided to go home. So off we went, I was too sleepy I forgot to charge my phone and didn’t go online anymore. So I missed this update from Marco.
I’Z IN YOUR NEWSPAPER DRINKING BEER. OH LOOKIT MY SHIRT!
Apparently we made it in the papers. What a bad ass! It was the Beer Appreciation Workshop at Red Boxx in Greenbelt, I think about a month ago. Had I known, I would have gone out and gotten myself a copy. But its ok, just one picture and my name spelled the wrong way. Feh
