What would you do for money?

Things hasn't been going all too well for me. I can't put my finger on exactly what caused my failures, I can't keep blaming luck, even though I believe it is whats happening.

In between Jacob's 1st birthday till now, things are going from bad to worse to not very live-able to worse to very bad.

And if I can't blame luck for working with .. immature boss and a boss who is all out for conning money, I don't know what I can blame on.

Boy boss had a very good act on. In the beginning he was a swell guy, everyone of us thought he was such a nice guy. A bit inexperience in the real business world but he was genuinely quite alright. Suddenly, with an invite to a nightclub, it all changed. He felt he fell in love with a 'songstress' 28 years old with a child to boot. He has been telling all of us how he is so experienced with this type of girls and we all warned him as best as we could. But he was stubborn and insist this girl is different. What a laugh! And it all changed! He lost focus and not only that, all his lies and all the mr nice guy was actually an act! He lives in a well! And he thinks he knows MORE than anyone else. His claims of what he used to do, what he is capable off started to fall apart when push came to shove. His ego was BIGGER than his partner, which is also another character, but at least that partner knew when to stand down when proven wrong. Things came to head when I was asked to leave coz he was shutting down the company, which in effect, wasn't true. He just had no guts to tell it straight to my face. Well so i said, its just unfortunate for me.

This current company.. is what nightmares are made off. Yes, its the dreaded mobile subscription company. The ones which promises there is some prize up for grabs. The one which made the Zynga CEO stand up and admit that he allowed such scams to happen in his games, popular games in facebook like Farmville, mafia wars etc.

This boss is SO FOCUSED on conning and scamming the public, he doesn't care if his content is SHIT to bits. As long as 1 stupid person clicks on the banner and subscribes, he wins. Even though now its easy to unsubscribe he still got your first sales which you can't.. do anything about.

Where do I fit in this picture? I'm the web guy, the guy who finds the websites to advertise, CPCs, CPAs, revenue shares, just as long as you can put up my banner, you get paid. I hate it, because i know its a scam. WIN PS2, WIN iPhone 3GS, WIN blackberry storm2, WIN macbook air THERE IS NO SUCH THING. We don't even conduct the draws much less having the prize to giveaway! YES! its a scam just as long as u subscribe I must do anything to get your attention.

Why do I continue to do it? because Jacob needs milk powder. I swallow my dignity. I give up my morals to do that basic thing a father must do. Feed the baby.

I'm not a guy with very high morals, neither do I have a lot of virtues. But one thing I have is the ability to know what is right and wrong. I hate being here. I hate doing this job. But its the only thing now... Its horrible.. it tears my guts and soul out piece by piece, slowly and surely.

The office is like a funeral parlour. Totally quiet as if everyone is very busy. Everyone eats lunch on their own, they don't even go out with each other! There is totally 0 camaraderie.

Want the bad news now? I was threatened not to be paid at the end of the month because my results are poor (which means too little people fall for the scam/fraud) . Because of my salary scale, it can't be brought forward to the government ministry, it has to be settled in court IF I don't get paid.

What i totally can't believe is.. Yet I'm still here everyday, on time. For my baby son. I don't have a choice.

All my experience and my contacts, my knowledge goes to waste here. People say hold on, wait for something better. is there really something better? When will it come?

I've never felt more suicidal than now.

Jacob's full month Party

Nope its still a few days to go before Jacob really reaches his first month, but hey who's complaining? Thank you to everyone who turned up and for those who didn't well.... screw yoU! LOL. j/k please ensure to hand up MC and relevant parent excuses, those who do not produce evidence, demerit points will be given.



Ok then, so a big thank you to Paul for buying the whole suit for Jacob's first big day. Somehow I feel sad knowing that Paul won't be able to join Jacob during his 1st year.. Who knows if things work out maybe I can bring Jacob to the UK instead. Here's Jacob looking absolutely smashing.




(Jacob all ready to be in the 1st team)


The party was really great except everyone seem to come at 1 big go, even though the information was 12pm to 4pm everyone just.. decided to come at 2 which made me really busy. Missus had her own friends over and she was really busy entertaining her own friends and I had to entertain my friends AND relatives from all the households. Paul was being really good, sitting there and trying to takeover part of my job. And I really like the picture below.




(Godpa trying to clean up the messy eater)




(Paul not getting any luck with Jacob as he looks lovingly on at the BRAT)


The party is over and the shifting (thank God) is over. I'm now officially residing in an HDB flat which I'm getting to terms with, not that I haven't stayed in 1 before but after such a long time, it does take some getting used to, like being more careful with security and privacy.




(Jacob watching F1)


Jacob was at his full brattish behaviour yesterday and its the first time I've seen the Missus getting pissed with him. He just simply refuse to sleep or he just eats non-stop which doesn't make sense because 4 hours of feeding non stop is weird. See, what happens is he eats and then dozes off and when put to bed, he wakes up and starts kicking up a fuss and starts looking for the nipple.


The missus frustrations are definitely not just due to Jacob too. I'm at fault just as well and its things that I have to change which Missus is sweet to let me know. Thats why she broke my heart a few times when she got frustrated with Jacob and me. Sorry my dear. That's also why even after the move after being so bloody tired I tried to make it up to the missus as much as possible.

Virgin Feeding

(Jacob wondering who the hairy monster is)

Yup we broke Paul's (Prempal to you, Jacob) virginity on feeding a baby and we nearly made him change the diapers on Jacob. The brat was surprisingly still and willing to let his Godfather feed him, but staring at him all the time wondering who the dork is. 

(Who's the geezer feeding me?)

As usual Paul went onto the "do u like prono mate?", "How about a bollywood actress as a wife", "what you prefer a Jap babe?" and all other pornographic statements not meant for print. Jacob was pretty bemused at the geezer but nodded in approval when Paul said Jap Babe. Sigh just like another Sillyporean male I guess. 


(Paul just like the missus looking lovingly at the brat, not knowing he's a brat yet)

Ok well Paul didn't hit it off great, he lifted the bottle too high thus causing Jacob to spill most of his milk, and Paul's hands were stiff like wood, had to remind him again and again to be more gentle and flexible. I think the icing was when Paul tried to burp the baby. It was hilarious, all hands, legs, head and body were used to hold a less than 4kg baby upright. I was laughing so hard I forgot to snap a photo of it. 


(Paul talking to Jacob about sex and how old he should be before trying)

Its Jacob's 1st month celebration tomorrow and then a major move to a new house on Sunday, So I hope to remember to snap a few shots for you guys on Monday.

I'm Wrong

(Angel lookalike.. but still BRATTISH)


See I admit when I'm wrong. And I'm wrong that I can force the bugger to sleep for 3 hours or more at night. He's learning to focus on objects now and he has also become... grumpy like his godfather... 

Speaking of which he came by the house after a 14hour flight, so sweet of him to get the nursery rhyme dvds, clothes and very very nice gold necklace. On behalf of Jacob, Thanks Paul.

We made Paul carry Jacob and Paul was stiff like wood. We'll let him do the diapers before the big day on Saturday. Intend to make him spend more time with Jacob, so that he doesn't think material supply is good enough to be a godfather. 

He's got this beautiful Arsenal Cap and Socks ready to fit into the Arsenal's First team. Wonder if Arsene Wenger will consider...

(Jacob's tiny little feet which gives off amazing power)

Oh we've discovered a pattern in Jacob. Before he wakes up and cries for milk, he'll let off a few good sounding farts. And if the lights are on, you can see him turning red while farting, little bugger gotta learn how to fart without using so much strength. 


(Jacob the master torturer)

What a brat

(The makings of a brat)

Aren't babies supposed to be sleeping ALL the TIME? Not only that, when he sleeps he makes the weirdest noise ever. No its not deep breathing, but sudden split second cry or those deep throat sounds which last a sec or 2 before going back to sleep again.

According to the missus he's not been sleeping in the afternoon like from 2pm - 9pm. Told the missus to torture him and not let him sleep like till 11pm... Wonder if it'll work.
(The smirk after driving his parents nuts)

What was fun is he farts like an adult. Like a real adult. A big huge BRRRTTTT. And it so happened I had a lots of air in my tummy so it was like an alternative farting orchestra which nearly drove the missus mad. He of course have to shit his pants (errr diapers), which incidentally is quite expensive and he uses like 6 of them a day. Sheesh. 

I've been thinking about how unfair it is to just post up his pics and not my wife so here is the moment when the missus is being wheeled out from the delivery ward into the room. 

(Missus looking at her creation)

See Jacob being so good and quiet, sleeping soundly not giving a care while the missus looks on wondering if all the pain she just went through was worth it.

From the picture below, one could tell she felt it was worthy. Look at her looking lovingly on Jacob.

(The missus still had no idea she has a brat on her hands)

Yeah with all the anxiety and the fear over, she looks on lovingly at Jacob. She had absolutely no idea the mess he'll be and i wonder if she'll look different after 3 weeks with Jacob.



(look, my baby, isn't he swell? ya rite... wait for 3 weeks...)

From hours to 3 weeks old, the bugger had grown longer, can't use the word taller coz I just feel its the wrong word to use. He's changed quite a bit aye?

Well sorry for not updating last week because it has been a very hectic week at work. Jacob's godfather the brit bhai is back in Sillypore for his full month party. So i'll be busy hanging out with him and I really like to see Paul change diapers for his godson. Do u think he'll do it?

What about a wager?

It didn't get better

Its Wednesday folks. I'm off to KL tomorrow and weirdly I think, I will, I feel, I gather that I will miss the little bugger.

(huh? Dad's leaving? Who am I gonna torment?)

Same level work colleagues don't seem to be having a nice day either. No its not Lehman Bros or AIG, its just the general mood and in reality .. just busy. I hate busy it means I'm not earning money. 

Oh I signed 2 policies for the little bugger today. Yes with AIA. No I'm not going to be afraid of AIG because the US government now has shares in it. And unless the whole US of A dies which I hope it doesn't happen soon (though I think God has a hand in most of the disasters recently), I'm not panicking and I'll continue supporting my insurance mate. 


(YAWN!! My dad is such a boring ASS)

Got that bugger an education fund thingy so I don't need to fork out a sum of money if he 'can' study and wanna go to the Uni and best of all it includes an insurance on me so if something happens to me, the policy will continue to pay its own premium. Sweet isn't it? And I can surrender his policy in 10years, If the bugger continues to pay Sgd250 till he is 60, he'll be a 3.6millionaire. WOOT. Why didn't my dad do that for me. Sigh...

Alright I don't think I'll be able to update till I'm back, so I'm gonna put some more photos for Jacob fans. Yes HE has fans... if you count his godfather.....


(Time to think about torturing someone else.)


(All these thinking is making me.. sleepy...)
