Mad rush..

I was never this busy until this morning..

This morning, one email was enough to get me all frenzy, because I'm expected to coordinate enquires and get replies within just a working day, and send an email to the respective parties involved at the next working day..

I was totally upset about this matter, because in the first place, everything was not confirmed initially and suddenly, an email was written and sent to me and my bosses, to do this and that..
And the email was written in such a way that if anything goes wrong and I can't meet the deadline, I would have to answer for it, because it is my responsibility..
Called up my boss and seek her advice.. Later, I talk to the respective parties, and have agreed that the deadline would have to be extended.. It is possible for me to do the necessary paperwork, but getting a reply at the next working day is simply too much.. so ya..

Then in the evening, my big boss came to lab, and then, we had an urgent meeting.. Intially, it was just a short update of a situation.. but what I didn't expect that it dragged for about 2 hrs..
So now when my boss said short mtg of about 30 mins, I won't believe liaox.. I'm expecting it to be at least 1 hr.. if can keep within 2 hrs, consider very short liaox.. so ya..
And then your big boss talking in mtg, say just short update, and she just go on and on and on.. you can say "sorry.. a bit too long liaox?".. no mah.. her position in my department is one grade higher than my direct supervisor.. so ya.. We all know her pattern, so everytime she calls for mtg, we koe its at least 1 hr, though she mentioned that its short.. haha..
The only time when she keeps it short and sweet, is she has to either rush back main office for another mtg, or had an important appt after the mtg.. haha.. other than that, don't expect anything less than 1 hr!

Ok.. I have ranted enough.. feeling sleepy (though I slept for 8 hrs yesterday!)..

I hate last minute work,
