New Toy

BenQ held the annual appreciation dinner yesterday. I was lucky enough to win a new toy for myself, an ebook!

Yep, once again it is made by BenQ, and its likely to be full of problems as it is a new product.

Then again, I cannot complaint too much, as it is the third year that I was actually picked to win something over the last three annual appreciation dinners. 2007 was a crappy mobile phone, 2008 was a digital camera and this year, an ebook.

Like every other year, I will end up selling this.

If you like to know what it looks like, here it is:

A New Phone!

Maybe I shouldn’t include the exclamation mark, because I am not exactly excited at getting this phone.

It was in fact, free. I got it from a draw at yesterday’s annual appreciation dinner.

A BenQ T51. What a piece of shit phone.

Well, better than nothing. I think the first thing I do when I get my hands on it is to sell it.

For Three Years In A Row

I got nothing.

Yep, at the company annual appreciation dinner, I again walked away with nothing. This is the third consecutive year I did not get anything, not even a crappy $1,000 coupon for me to do some shopping spree at Sogo department store.

The dinner was okay, the same food with a lot of noise and a lot of beer. Again, the management people are up on the stage telling everyone now different this year is going to be and how successful we will be in the future, and then the same disappointing closing, walking away with nothing.

I guess I shouldn’t be too depressed. I did go up on stage for BenQ Singapore Projector Team of the Year. I did not actually win the award, I was just on stage to fill up some room.

As a closing, this is the kind of face I make when I was in my own state of mind.
