A bad hair day? Yes today would be what I call “a bad hair day”. My better half would frequently use that phrase…… “A day on which one's hair seems unmanageable” or this phrase is also extended to mean a day when everything seems to go wrong.

Yes, today seemed like a day that “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong “ as in Murphy’s Law.

So many wrong things happen in the office. As the day went along, I got more irritated with the things in the office.

I was so happy to leave the office at 5.15pm hoping that the day will just end and I can start all over again tomorrow…

Anyway, I am all de-stress now that I have emailed my frustration to my staff.

A= April & A= Auditors

This month of April is a month we have two set of auditors coming rectify the company's Quality Environment and ISO 9001.

I come to realized that getting the certifications were the easy bit but maintaining it is a tremendous difficult task.

Two weeks ago we had a lady auditor for Quality Environment. At the opening meeting, she looked like a pleasant lady but at the closing meeting, she didn't look that pleasant after all.

Tomorrow we will begin another 4-day audit for rectification of ISO 9001. I'm not looking forward to another lady auditor who will be spending half a day at my office on the 3rd day.

Here's my definition of an auditor-

'What's an auditor?Someone who arrives after the battle and bayonets all the wounded.'
