Differentiation

On the differences between campus and current work environment - some small observations I have made, 3 months into my new job now...

On a car costing ~RM100k-
campus: "She's very rich ok, see the car she's driving!"
now: "Oh, this car is very cheap only..."

On money matters-
campus: "What, you got RM100 increment?!! That's A LOT ok? I got RM50 only!"
now: "They're asking very little money la... RM1.2mil only"
recently: "... RM1bil ... very small amount ..." (unable to remember the rest of the statement due to being too dazed)

When others talk loudly on their handphones-
campus: "Baby got cry today? Got drink milk or not?"
now: "You see that share ar, when reach the price I told you, sell!!!"

On getting stationery-
campus: You need to record every single item you take, and bring your used pens to exchange for new ones...
now: When being given an extra set, told the secretary, only to have her say "Nevermind, just take it!"

During presentation time-
campus: Sit upright; serious; speak clearly, politely, answer all questions truthfully and to the point, no beating around the bush, no arguing with evaluators.
now: Slouch; shake legs; answer phone; read & reply SMS; walk in and out; beat around any bush you like; argue all you please; eat (the eating part I like :P)

Noise level (on a scale of 1 - 10)-
campus: noise = (sozy_is_in)?10:5;
now: usually 1, at most 2 only...

Unpleasant smells-
campus: Body odours! UGH.
now: Post-cigarette-break odours! UGH.

Sexy female staff:

campus: Show legs :D~

now: Show cleavage and bare shoulders :P~

Back to work, back to work!
