Family or Enemy?

mood was quite good initially, taking into account that "he" sms-ed me yesterday, and my best friend told me that he liked me (lol)


mood changed once something happened...


was waiting for my experiment to run (need to wait for 15 minutes). so i went over to my friend's work place and asked whether is there anything she wants me to help her with (pity them, next thursday have to do presentation alr, but their supervisor like dun care about them at all)


she asked me to help her wash some apparatus, then asked me to dry it up at the lab above, and sambil itu help her weigh some samples (since our weighing balance rosak)


while weighing, a staff came over and asked


- you are under who?
- who ask you to use the weighing balance here?
- who gave you the permission?
- did you tell your supervisor?
- did you ask my boss? (my friend;s supervisor)


bombarded with questions that i am unable to answer, what i did was just smile and walked away...


i just dno why it hurts me so much to hear those things. mayb because of his "warning", "stern", "serious" tone... and at the same time, i was thinking "why can't i use the instruments in the lab since they all belong to the same company, MPOB? i am just a student, their politics is their problems. their misunderstandings, their past, are all theirs. why must they drag innocent students like me into such situation?"


p/s : my supervisor's office is at the lab downstairs, and this lab upstairs belongs to my friend's supervisor. both these supervisors are "enemies", have some misunderstandings that i also dont know is what. so they divide very clearly which is who's etc..


and so, because of this, students have to bear the consequences... of not being able to enjoy those new apparatus upstairs..


sometimes, it is better to work in a small company, but has warmth like family; rather than work in a big company but as enemies...


- "don like dat mei mei.. 2morrow i bring u ''sat keh mah'' n other very very sweet sweet stuff 4 u ok? =)"
seeing my fren saying this, i suddenly remembered one friend... a friend who gave me sweets when i am down/sad/no mood... someone who wished that with sweet things, hopefully my mood will get better... someone who brought sweets all the way back from Genting, someone who quietly put a packet of sweets underneath my desk in school when i was depressed... someone.. a friend i had lost... =')
