My company

You may already know that I work in a design company, but maybe I hadnt said much about this place I work in, and the people I work with.

My company environment is pretty relax, which is a dead contrast to the jobscope.

I guess the bosses adopted this relaxed culture to retain the employees' sanity. If this company operates on a rigid structure, I guess most of us would have already quitted.

At the same time, maybe it is because we are supposed to be creative, hence stiff rules do us no good.

Over at where I am, it is actually ok to come in work late, and some of us took it to their responsibility to come in at around 10 or 11.

(I dont, I try to reach by 8.30 if possible. Cos if I reach late, I feel that half the day is gone and nothing's to be completed. That is depressing.)

When we feel peckish, we can go ahead and wander out of the office to buy pastries to eat, or coffee to drink. Or we can go to the bank during office hours, or I'd once went to mend my highheels.

Our working habits here is that, do what you want, dont get caught, and FINISH your work NO MATTER WHAT.

While you may envious my working hours, please remember I've to work long ot hours at the same time.

This system if quite practical to me, because I cannot be forced to work if I've got absolutely no ideas. I'll need to walk around, surf net, browse magazines and etc, and get ideas and concepts. Sometimes by the time I developed my concept, it is already after 6, and I started on actual work by then.

Sigh... doesnt sound like fair deal after all right?
