Last-minute inventory, both literally and figuratively. It
was raining all day. The day before the end of the year felt surprisingly calm,
even though we were hustling in the stock room. Normally, this kind of thing
weighs me down, but for some reason, I'm feeling alright now. Maybe it's
because Mr. Habeeb and Azard aren't around, making the vibes a bit lighter.

Last Minute Inventory
Monday, 25 December 2023
Going to Island
I'm heading to Dhaalu Atoll
Hospital (Dh. Kudahuvadhoo) today. I just wanted to vent a bit because I've
been trying to get a tourniquet that I need to bring to the island. However,
the process is incredibly slow, and when I inquired about the delay, they
nonchalantly questioned why I was in such a hurry, citing my 5 pm flight.
I found it frustrating because I
simply want to be prepared and have everything in order before heading to the
airport. I don't want to end up rushing at the last minute like Azard. These
kinds of situations make my eyes roll faster than usual
Azan can be quite irritating most
of the time. I can't forget how he got on my nerves over a box I really needed
a long time ago. He can be so inconsiderate. I won't bother asking him if I
need something done. I'm not a fan of asking people around me for help because
I don't want to trouble them, and besides, I don't want them turning around and
asking me for favors as well. LOL!
I'm aware that these people might
expect something in return just because they did me a favor, and I really
dislike that expectation.

confused
I'm feeling quite exhausted and disoriented today. Last night, I deviated from my usual sleeping routine, going to bed earlier and neglecting my usual study time. Despite my efforts, I found myself inevitably sinking into a deep slumber as soon as I lay down on my bed—it was a quick snap, and I was asleep.
Having said all that, today feels
a bit confusing for me—I didn't even bother checking the day, only to realize
it's Friday, and we don't have work. I wondered why some shops were closed and
the office was empty when I arrived. I initially thought it might be a public
holiday, and no one informed me, but upon checking my laptop, I discovered it's
just Friday.
Well, I'm just mentally and
physically exhausted. Vans stayed with me for two nights, and while I'm happy
to spend time with him, accommodating people can be draining. It took a toll on
my energy levels.

Overnight
Vans crashed at my place last night. Poor thing's heartbroken and her life's all over the place. I saw it coming, though, given how messed up her relationship was from the get-go. It's good she's realizing it now, but I can't say I'm totally on board with the quick-fix moves she pulled in the heat of the moment. But hey, if it makes her happy, who am I to argue? Both she and the guy share the blame for this chaos.
Here's hoping she takes something
meaningful away from all of this.

Gaafu Alifu Villingili
So, yesterday I finally landed in Gaafu Alif Villingili, and let me tell you, the view from the window seat during the flight made me appreciate my job more than I thought I would. It's crazy how lucky I am to get this bird's-eye view, flying through the clouds and feeling like I'm in a different world.
But today, things took a turn. I
was in the middle of training nurses at the hospital when Azard, bless his
heart, decided to play the interruption game. I couldn't help but roll my eyes
in my head. It's not that I hate the guy, but seriously, it felt like he was
trying to show off or something. Dude, it's my job—I know what I'm doing.
And then, to top it off, he
starts reminding me about what to discuss, like it's my first rodeo. Ugh, major
eye roll moment. It's not about hating Azard, but his insensitivity was off the
charts. I'm just trying to do my thing, you know?
To make matters worse, he brings
up the fact that Habeeb might questioning me why I didn't bring certain stuff.
Like, come on! I'm on my leave, and they asked me to cut it short for this. Is
that even ethical? Sometimes it feels like they think they own us just because
they're the bosses.
And don't even get me started on
how they make a big deal out of everything. I mean, I'm glad to be here doing
the training, but could they at least let me go back to the office from my
annual leave and plan things properly? Nope, they couldn't wait. It's like the
world will end if I don't drop everything and come running.
Honestly, I don't want to quit—I like what I do. But I want to do it on my terms, you know? Make my own timeline and work without drowning in a toxic environment. Lately, it's been a crazy ride—studying notes, dealing with IGMH concerns, and juggling toxic office vibes. I'm seriously thinking about starting fresh in Dubai

Leave on rant
Hey, currently in the middle of my leave, and it's a bit frustrating how the company doesn't seem to respect that. They want me to cut it short for some unscheduled training on these islands, and why on earth do I need to be stuck with Azard all the time? Seriously. I can handle the training solo and travel without him. It's annoying, and I'm pretty peeved about it.
If Azard can handle the training, let him do it. I just
needed to vent, even though I know there's not much I can do. Gotta go with the
flow, I guess – just a regular employee in the grand scheme of things.
I'm not a fan of how these people seem to overlook the
importance of respecting others' time. At this stage in my life, I couldn't
care less about going the extra mile for this company. They don't appreciate my
efforts, so why should I exert additional energy just to please them? I've been
more than willing to contribute my best, but the recent IGMH fiasco has left me
feeling like they could easily throw me under the bus and place all the blame
on me.
What's more, I'm not pleased with how Ms. Yvonne and Habeeb
are quick to point fingers at me and label me as irresponsible. In reality,
I've been following their instructions and doing what I believe is the best
course of action in that specific scenario. LOL I dropped a message to Azard,
suggesting he give me a heads up if he plans to hit the island. Can't deal with
last-minute plans. His response? I can reschedule my trip later. Classic. These
folks are so unorganized, loving the spontaneity and randomness. Doesn't quite
work for me, especially when it comes to job-related stuff. I'm all about
planning and having some control over what's supposed to happen. Right?
Anyway will plan the necessary visit to the island right
before my leave on Feb. I need a serious travel plans so I can do my study in
between.
