Tribute to Flex...

It has been awhile... There has been lotsa stuff going on in the last 2 weeks. (I can't believe that it has only been 2 WEEKS! Felt like mths...) Well, i will try to touch on the events updates soon... i hope...

I happened to be looking thru pics on Misanthrope and found some backlogs of pics of places in Flex and also of my colleagues. SO! i decided to have a little tribute here for my favourite flex places and some of the pple i work with (Sadly, i forgot to take pictures with my ex-colleagues, only managed to catch some late birds still in the office after 6 pm). hehe...
Fav Spot: the Ladies' Bigger Cubicle


I know this is like... Weird... to pple.
But i fell in love with this spot every since my first day in Flex. (Kinda explain my extended toilet trips... hehe... *Guilt as charged!*) Bare with me here as i tell u more abt the Toilet du Flex. It is an ordinary and clean toilet, but wat is extraordinary abt it was its view. (Refer to pic above). Though only standing 6 storeys above ground, its view is unobstructed thanks to it location in the Woodlands Industrial Park.

Sitting on the porcelain bowl, with a tilted vision of 20 degrees above the horizon, one can enjoy doing they daily biz while looking up to the blue skies above. If expecting a long "delivery" one can also engage in a relaxing game of "Guess-What-Animal-is-de-Cloud"
Fav Room: The Pantry


Please do not be alarm... All the pics above are taken from 1 single room... The Pantry.

Before flex took over the building, this room was the main office of its previous owner. Extremely spacious, with ceiling to floor windows, he even had his own bed and fully equiped bathroom with bathtub. Wat used to be the bathroom is now the storeroom for the janitor, Aunty Mony. (its Mo-Nee, i'm not sure if it's spelt this way) Of coz, flex took away the bed and replaced it with a Ping Pong Table.

Besides Ping Pong, there is also a Dart Board and Fussball Table, courtesy of some ex-colleagues no longer with flex.

Wat pantry is complete without a coffee machine, a fridge stocked with drinks and an assortment of biscuits.

It was a place for relaxation, informal chit chats between colleagues, birthday celebrations, Yoga classes, steamboats, food sharing, breakfast, lunch breaks, 2 pm teabreaks, 3pm teabreaks, 4pm teabreaks, 5pm teabreaks, after work dart games, Anytime Pingpong matches, etc... The good times...
My Knick Knacks
I like to personalize my work space, thus explain my little roadside freakshow of voodoo dolls, flying pig, poseable idiot figure, yoga duck, headless sexy girls, etc...
My Ex-Colleagues
Newbies
Left to Right: Me lah..., Eric, Lake, Stacy, Bryan and Joshua
Veterans
Left to Right: How Young (how young? dunno?), Me lah..., Desmond
Same Batch: Kin Song joined flex in the same yr as me, but a few mths later.
Lots of beautiful memories, though i hoped i have taken more pics with the pple, guess there will be other times. :)
