I seriously don't mind juniors asking me stuff about pupillage and whatever. But I really do mind spending 20 minutes of my rest time explaining something, only to be asked the exact same thing by the same person one week later on the pretext that he / she had forgotten what I had said. A little courtesy never hurt anyone.

"We are the most well remunerated copy and pasters in the world."

My friend told his pupil master: I went through the document with a fine tooth comb.

Pupil master, pointing to double spacing on the document: Your fine tooth comb is missing a few teeth.

Someone at the office has a very bad dandruff problem. It's so bad when she leans over documents, it's like it's snowing. And I don't mean to gross people out on a Saturday morning, but said person's hair has a decaying smell to it too.

A friend at work suggested putting a newspaper cutting of dandruff treatments on her desk. I'm open to more suggestions, and will implement the best one.

Things you hear: "I thought he was making faces at me, it turned out it was just his face."

More Yo Momma jokes, from various contributors at work, including yours truly.

Yo Momma so slutty her fees were securitised!

Yo Momma so flat her assets were unsecuritisable!

Yo Momma so fat she clogged the floodgates of liability!

Yo Momma so cheap, she da powed the marks and spencer cookie crumbs!

* * *

And *gasp* I brought work home to do. Real drafting, with no precedent. For the record, this was given just before I left the office, so it's not due to Yo Mommaing at work.

A friend at work came up with some yo momma jokes:

- Yo Momma so fat, she needs to be registered under the LTA!

- Yo Momma so fat, she reversed the burden of proof!

- Yo Momma so fat, she ate equity's darling!

I got told off for laughing out loud in the office.

Extracted from a write up on one of the designers of some online shop : " ... he is known for his naive and spontaneous designs...."

Friend, who was also surfing same site, said: " people can make money from being naive? I also want."

We've aged.

1. The seats in cathay cinneleisure no longer fit us.

2. We talk about buying tags heuers.

3. We have gym memberships.

4. We end MSN conversations with " I need to go to the office now."

5. We begin real life conversations with "how's work?"

I met my army buddies for dinner. Had a great time! Loads of funny excerpts, but mostly private jokes, so won't share them. One day to the weekend!

My singlish friend: Alamak, you start work liao, otherwise can jio you watch zodiac.

Me: Oh I'm watching it this Sat.

My singlish friend: Got 3 blockbusters coming up.

Me: 3? I only know of Transformers and Fantastic Four.

My singlish friend: Got transformers, got fantastic four, got helicopter.

Me: Helicopter???

My singlish friend: Harry plotter lah.

First day of work came and went. I quite enjoyed myself. The team is friendly.

We trainees were asked to interpret a picture of a cat in a fish bowl and a fish outside it. And someone said " all I can see is the fish, and think, if you feed the fish too much work, it'll like, just DIE."

Had a good laugh on that one!
