"We are pleased to inform you that you have been confirmed in your
appointment as Programmer with effect from July 1st 2007"

5months on probation..alas my boss has decided to confirm me..
upon confirmation had a tiny bit of salary adjstment..
roughly around 16~17%..parents said normal ard 8-10% nia wor..
dun knoe how true is dat..or could be bcos my starting pay kinda low..

but den calculate lai calculate ki..figures also knot tally lor..
althou letter signed adi, next month only get money ar..
but den alrdy owe ppl lunches and dinners liau..
boss and colleagues alrdy ask orh..confirm d when wan treat..
grandma, aunties and parents..O.o' like la i'm earning a 5 figure salary..
if so..i treat evryone to breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper also no sweat..

wif d tiny bit of salary adjstment..hafta pay for my car installments..
like got no difference like dat..increment = no increment...=(

but den knot really complain about d salary also..
i think its only parallel to d workload ler..
tis place i'm at..really relaxed..no deadlines wan..
but when d boss asks for ur work..den u'd knoe ure behind schedule..

hmm..so now dat ive secured my 1st job..whr do i go from here?
