Welcome to the Jungle

The client's office where I'm at is a unique one. Never have I seen such a working place before.

My first few days here, I realized something was not quite right with the people here. They are not those regular professionals that you see or meet in your everyday life. They are pretty laid back, more relaxed, and like to communicate in their own unique ways. They like to hold chats by/in the toilet, talking about sambal belacan and how to prepare them best. I thought it was good-in a way, that these people can really click that well. Sometimes I can hear the aunties screaming the names of their co-workers, giggling out loud. I would usually just pump up the volume on my winamp, and press on.

The people here just held a durian session, the whole place would probably smell like this for the next few days. One of my colleague tried to persuade the Manager here that it would be best if they do it elsewhere, but I guess he was one of those who encouraged the session. My colleague was told just to bear with it...and was given a real piece of advise - One man's meat is another man's poison. If I'm 45, a lady and single...I would marry him.

Occasionally the only toilet bowl here would be filled with yellow 'water' (espcecially in the morning), sometimes the fumes would have invaded the air...and just now...there's an extra piece of tissue paper laying in the bowl too. This is indeed, like what someone said...a jungle. I just hope I dont turn into a baboon soon.
