That email
Interesting thing which happened in office today.
Just before lunch time, received an email from this HP IT guy, who is stationed at head office, and whom we only meet him twice ( shall addressed him as "B"), asking us (me and my colleague-- another MSO, whom I will refer to as "J") if we are free to join him for lunch on this Friday.
Find it weird, cos he seldom come by our office unless there is a new staff coming in, and most of the time, IT guys will look for the other IT guys for lunch, or they just join our whole group (including the "aunties") for lunch. Wondering if it is because he had tracked down that we are using Web MSN? (Me and "J" are the two young, lively and naughty ones in office, keke).
Me: Hey J, saw that email that B sent? Weird right? Could he been tracking our movements? J: (reads her email). Hmm, reply him "Ok lor". See how then lor. Maybe that day he coming to our office and Jonathan (the other IT guy) not around? ( hmm, make sense but still funny right? Friday is still days ahead, and he could have just join our group on that day mah.)
So we decided to ask him what's the reason behind.
J was busy so I clicked on "reply all with history" option and sent our reply which reads:
Hi B,
Should be no problem.
But what's the agenda huh? After lunch, we receive a reply from B which read:
. Just to thank you for your help and at the same time to build public relations. Unofficial invitation. No worries.
P.S: Please do not keep **** (his department email) in the loop thanks" I scanned through all the correspondence, and was shocked to find in the sender's list, his department main email address was included. I was quite sure when i clicked on "reply all", only B's name, and J's name appeared.
Explained to him the situation, and he could only suggest that perhaps the system go haywire.
Well, what done cannot be undone and now his whole department knows that he asked 2 ladies out for lunch on Fri. Haha sure he will get teasing from his colleagues.
Hmm, was wondering that will it spoilt the chances for J, as there might be a possiblity that B is interested in her. J is unattached and older than me and the aunties colleagues are doing their best in matchmaking her with any bachelors available.
J certainly seems to know what is going on my mind, for she mentioned
"tell you har, don't go for handsome and rich guy" and
" i don't go for his pattern one, he looks like 小弟弟, somemore he's like very 花花" .
And J wrote back to B :
" I got help you meh" And B don't know how to reply back. Hahaha.
Oh yah, haven't mention how this B looks like. Hmm, his appearance is similar ( NOT "look like") to the 5566's 许梦哲 pattern -- fair skined, dark styled hair, baby face. I don't think he's very handsome, just that he is like those meterosexual, clean-cut and bothers abt his appearance & dressing, quite different those typical geekly IT guys.
Haha, just recalled I have some IT guy friends, and one or two might be reading my blog. Ehh, u don't look geekly ok. :P
****************
received a call from ex-colleague, asking me if I am free to to join them for window shopping at Far East in the evening. So off I went. Haha didn't see them for quite some time, and I got lots of stories to tell. Another colleague passed me a copy of Maxim magazine ( yes that magazine for man), and after flipping through, I saw that my polar bear soft toy was featured in it, was used in the story as one of a fans who welcome "Taufik" to my previous office then. Almost forget that I lent them my polar bear toy for the photoshoot. Keke, will scan that page if I have the time.
