Signing Contract

i requested a 2-hour early leave yesterday from bv because i had an appointment of employment contract signing for pccw at 7pm. i first got back home as i found i forgot to copy certain certificates. i had enough spare time to do so. the feeling of early leave was so good. the whether outside was fantastic and made me feel good. it would have been perfect if it were not that hot.


little sister was home when i got back. then i search for my past certificates and went down to estate mall to have photocopies. i also thought having a bath first was a good idea and i did. and the pccw hr woman said before that it was fine to be in cascal dressing for contract signing. good ~


when i was travelling in mtr i gave hing a call to ask him how to get there. it took around 5 mins from station to pccw building. when i arrived on the hr floor i also found a decent lady sitting at the reception, looking fairly pretty. she surely was another new employee. after a few mintues another tall guy arrived and sat around us. he looked a bit like harry in spiderman, but not that handsome of course. the 3 of us didn't have any conversation, probably because we still didn't know if we were going to be colleagues with each other anyway.


a minute passed and suddenly hr ms. ko called me and ask for my whereabouts. when she arrived the reception and we found that she was a crazy-looking woman in her late 20s, if not early 30s hahaha~ she aggressively invited us to follow her into a conference room. we new arrival were arranged to be seated consideratly far from each other due to confidentia particulars stated in the contract and other classified documentaries.


soon she started briefing us about the every single terms and conditions in the contract as well as our benefits as an employee in pccw. meanwhile i was quite annoyed by a remark she had made during the clarification of offering. the offer of employment, she said, would be granted to a candidate only if the feedback or evaluation they pccw obtained from his or her previous employers, as she said they would do, was at least classified as "satisfied". won't it be a bit late for her to tell us such criteria ?!?! what if i quited owing ot my poor relationship with my boss due to personally affair or deviation of point of view?! why couldn't have she tell us during interview or during the phone confirmation of offer so that the candidate could still have a sense to decide to quit and accept the offer or not?! i really didn't think it was a considerate practice. but i signed all the documents anyway. i needed that job and i am convinced that my impression given to BOSS was fairly satisfied. just forget it~


i didn't understand all the things she said, such as mpf, medicine benefits, etc. but i knew they were good enough.


at last she announced that the progress was completed and missed the meeting. the 3 of us took the lift and we started familiarizing ourselves with each other. they are clerk and sharon. i found sharon really cute when having a close look in the lift. she was a bit shy but cheerful. clerk is tall and strong and not aggressive at all. we started chatting about our past career, educational background, living place.

we wait and see how it goes.
