Long queue

Early morning, the lead I am told to provide undying support during testing told me that it was decided I will be the lead and she will be providing support. Huh???? Me leading? Lead what? Lead the testing to death ar?

Today I regret not depositing my money in the morning on my way to work. Since I was running out of time, I decided to deposit on my way back from work instead. How long can the queue be anyway. It's the deposit machine. It's not like there are many people queueing there dying to deposit money.

The queue at the deposit machine was not very long when I reached there. I am the 2nd person. Unfortunately the ______(put in word of choice) in front of us decided to deposit money to all her family member and about 1000 friends and a one or two enemies. And she deposit $50.00 every account.

After 5 minutes the lady in front of me, start shuffling her feet left and right. I inch a forward a bit to peek at her transactions. Or else how would I know she is depositing 50.00 per account per person?

After 10 minutes, the lady behind me start asking the lady behind her what is the lady at the ATM machine doing in a loud hokkien whisper meant to be heard by said lady. Sorry to say, it didn't work, she is still happily depositing her $50.00 account by account.

After 15 minutes, the queue is now as long as the the next door 4D queue. The 2 ladies now joined by a third lady behind them and they start pointing at the Deposit Lady and talking loudly already. Nothing like gossip uniting housewives women. Even the lady with 4 passbooks to update at the next queue already finished and gone and we are still waiting for the $50.00 to finish. Maybe I should give her my account too so that she can also deposit $50.00. Luckily she finished around 5 minutes later else I think her dead body will be lying outside the ATM room. I really gotta to salute her for sheer thick skin as she can withstand all the finger pointing, gossiping housewives and calmly deposited the money. And I know why when she turned to leave. She is not a Chinese.. MUA HA HA HA HA...


The best rojak is still in my hometown behind the stadium...
