i rem when i went melbourne years back, ppl keep calling me luv... i really cannot tahan... i thot the guys trying to be funny with meOriginally posted by Rhonda:Oh dear! It's hard to work under managers who are petty!
The majority of Team Leaders in my ward are All Talk - No Action types. Only three of them will roll up their sleeves and help you. I found out that here, talk gets you everywhere because if you work quietly, you will just disappear into the woodwork but if you always talk optimistically and appear cheerful and always say upbeat things, you'll be the apple of everyone's eyes!Better still if you pepper your sentences with 'darl' (darling) or 'luv'... they absolutely fall for you!

Choi choi!! Pinky and I are bears too! I do have the rare backache now and then but it's muscular and easily rectified. All nurses have backaches to some degree anyways - occupational hazard.
i am going to eat fried bee hoon tmr.Originally posted by Rhonda:I had two hash browns and two large German something sausages this morning. HAD to eat the sausages before they went bad cause I'd kept them too long.I love my oven... I bake / grill a lot now cause it's pretty clean and fuss-free!
I find it quite ... hypocritical. I mean, everyone is 'luv'. I'd rather call people 'mate', which is not as fake as 'luv' / 'honey' / 'darl'.Originally posted by tare:i rem when i went melbourne years back, ppl keep calling me luv... i really cannot tahan... i thot the guys trying to be funny with me

Yeah! It's quite irritating! I can stand IN FRONT of a group chatting away about boyfriends and vacations and I have WORK-RELATED issues I need help with NOW and they'll just ignore you and continue yakking and yakking and if you interrupt them halfway, if you don't smile broadly enough and say super sweet stuff like, "Gee, I hate to interrupt your party, hahaha, but I really do need some help with this..." or something cheong hei like that, you'll be labelled as 'curt' / 'rude' / 'inappropriate'.Originally posted by Wanda:Good morning, folks!

I usually call my patients by their first names, but they brighten up when my colleagues come in and greet them in some exaggerated manner (like Stepford wives) and address them as 'luv'.
Maybe, I might learn to take a huge breath and gulp and maybe call them 'sweet'.pukes...
