21/3 交表,好險!

小妹十級緊張,生怕有什麼什麼帶漏,覆查達10次之多,每天查2次......
早一點出門口,早行一步,便中了雀屎,好險!

我只用了普通A4 folder with pockets


終於到了 21/3 交表,約了 10:30am, 我 10:25am 已經到達
F出口進入 Pacific Place,要上上上,上到4/F 便會看到玻璃門走出去,便是P.P. 2 ,出面有的士站。




PP2門口

進入P.P.2,最左手邊的升降機按 14/F,轉左手邊,只有一間公司,叫「Heidrick & Struggles」,光光猛猛金色字便對了。
一入reception 便告訴她交form,reception 小姐帶我入小房間,等呀領事。趁呀領事未到便四處望望.金鐘真繁忙,但看見JW Marriot 的泳池,真想去游游 :P
溫馨小提示: 一進去最好坐在對住門口位置,以表交表誠意。

有位很冷酷的女士進來, 一手給她文件夾,她看看我的申請表,又揭一下我的CV,銀行簿仔和保險明細,再拿出一個相片規格尺左量右量,告訴我相片不合規格!!!當時心想,糟了......不想再來一趟,幸好小妹有「士啤」相片,個頭足夠 32-36mm,她再左看右看,幸好,OK了!!!




房中一角





窗外

她以純正英語跟我說 10 WORKING DAYS 便會收到消息,並說我可以拿在我身後的愛爾蘭小冊子,整個過程約 15分鐘。真快!
 

拿一本小冊子吧

 

Surprise!!!

好開心,當我心灰意冷以為今天未有消息,還質疑領事怎樣辦事之際, 6:23PM 竟然收到其電郵, 6:23PM!!!原來領事都要OT 的!! 我還以為他們真的 10:00-12:00PM ; 14:00-16:30PM,未完成的則留待明天做!!!

為日本祈福

世界是否快到末日?
為什麼有動物相繼集體死亡,天災不斷發生?
未必無因,人類不斷破壞地球,地球都有生命,有循環系統,當其生命走到盡頭,好似一個衰弱的老人家百病纏身,最終器官衰竭,終結生命。


熒光幕畫面出現的海嘯,地震情境依然瀝瀝在目,一閉上眼睛,畫面又再出現。雖然不在香港發生,畢竟人是有情的, 看見任何一個地方受災,也感到心疼,亦慨嘆生命的脆弱,跟小螞蟻無異。然而, 更說明了一個人生大道理:「水能載舟 亦能覆舟」。

值得一讚的是,日本人即使遇到如此大的災難,依然冷靜面對,不會出現搶糧情況,依然耐心排隊等候,災民願意守望相助......這個文化,值得香港人反思,為什麼我們會每況愈下?


題外話,小妹有個朋友當院長,剛收到她的message,關於天文台有地震應變計劃 (http://www.hko.gov.hk/gts/equake/contingency_c.htm),果然大開眼界!!

地震應變計劃

政府制訂的自然災害應變計劃足以應付包括地震在內的自然災害。


WTF @@!!!!咁都得 !!!???

最後,希望日本沒有美國佬的幫助下,核電得到控制; 快快振興起來,在黃金72小時內全部人都能夠救出來,減少傷亡人數
がんばって!!!!

REJECTED
