i kena before something like that.. but it was more hilarious..
at that time, we had work pagers.. i just bought a CDMA phone (yes.. it was that long ago).. and i was a system administrator for the place...
it was a Saturday night, 11:45pm and i was drinking heavily with a bunch of my friends at a pub...
i got a page from office.. i pull out my phone and called.. the woman on the other side said "can you help me? my password for the system got revoked"
i said "it's saturday night, i'm at a pub and i'm drunk.. whatever you want, i'll fix it on monday morning" and i hung up...
my friends were laughing their heads off...
the woman was holding a higher rank than me...
yes.. i am like that
But seriously! These people should be... err... err.. -thinks of suitable punishment- but I geuss they are already punished enough to be chained to their work at ungodly hours!
soon i'll be working ungodly hours again...
but i will know better than to bug people during those hours.. especially weekends.. weekends are sacred..
Once, I got a call at 2 am. Unknown number.
The woman at the other end of the line asked 'Who is this? Who is this?'
I just ended the call and went back to sleep.
In hindsight, I should have said 'You called me, so why don't you tell me who you are?'
On a related note, I hate it when people call me and keep saying 'Hello? Hello?' repeatedly without trying to introduce themselves.
Talking about weird calls and numbers.. I remember a long time ago, when we used to use PAGERS... I had a page from my colleague's line .. my colleague who was sitting opposite me..
.. but she wasn't there!

you can enter numbers to page.. maybe your colleague was playing a prank on you?
sort of like we played a prank on someone long ago.. she had a huge network colour printer in her room.. us guys somehow mapped it and printed a ghostly picture through the printer...
she was freaked out for a month.. coz it was.. like now, the ghostly month
That's evvvvillllllll
Maybe someone playing a prank on me.. cos... my office used to be at the 'deathhouses' at Chinatown.
A colleague who left late ever saw woman combing hair sort of thing.

after u dial the number and u hear the "beep beep" pager tone, instead of pressing * twice, press * once and 12345678 then press *...
it will reflect as the number 12345678 tried to page...
back long time ago, I would page my frenz with my number followed by 999 in times of emergency and we had other short form codes as well...
YES!!
i got Friday off!!
but i gotta work on Saturday.. a bit...
then Saturday evening, bringing folks, zora, sis and her bf to go eat crab!!

remind me long long time ago... I had this indian colleague... He had to go back to some part of india becoz his mother wans him to match-make with this indian girl due to some status, rank thingy...
when he came back, his cubicles is filled with cut out of birds picture... reference from the visa/master card thingy advertisement by richard gere, "More birds more luck~"
the only prank I did was to make a photo montage of my boss's face and secretly saved it in my colleague's computer as screen saver... U know the one that allows you to make an image fly around the screen? So it's just his head flying around the screen saying 'GET BACK TO WORK!"
He was talking on the phone halfway when he started spluttering - that's when I knew the screensaver was activated liao :D

yeah.. ahahaha..
but for me, i can't do that for that particular password.. it required me to go into the big server thingy and somehow use dunno what SQL command to reset...
pissed us off and that was the first thing we upgraded in the next version

My cat loves this. There's actually this website Cat TV or something which shows stuff like that.. and she enjoys looking at it.
cats are strange creatures.. ahahahhaa
