an eventful day (and more)

it was a busy day for me. i wasn't even able to post an entry at the office so, after saying bye to ethel, i rushed to posting this one.

upon arriving at the office, i scampered and immediately wiggled through revising my legal opinion for our client. nakakainis talaga. it was sooo difficult na nga inserting favorable stipulations in favor of our client who's not a party to the contract, it was made even more difficult by the decision i was previously ranting about. waaahhh!!! with all due respect to the Supreme Court, but it is my humble opinion that basing the decision on both the existence of a principal-agenct and employer-employee relationship is irreconcilable.

fifteen minutes before 11am, all of us associates, and the staff even, were agitated as to what the 11am meeting was about. why it can't wait till monday when our practice group meetings are scheduled, what's the rush anyway. the drama of it all was for nothing.

yep, not disgusted. was appeased. one of the bosses started with thanking the people comprising the firm for the remarkable performance which brought moolah to the firm's account. pretty nerve-whacking ah. we were thinking whether there is a need for us to look for employment somewhere, hehe. then, he announced that there will be non-monetary incentives for all of us. dig this:
1. free lunch from monday til thursday. as soon as a caterer is chosen, lunch shall be on the firm.
2. medical insurance/healthcard. hahaha, basta it's something to that effect.
3. availment of leaves. this i pretty much like. hehe. o sige na nga next to number one. :)
then there will be performance moolahs to be given next week. no matter what the amount may be, still, i am thankful. as most old people would say, di napupulot yun.

free lunch courtesy of goldilocks was then served. sarap pala ng kaldereta nila. and oh, by the way, when boss asked whether there are questions, being the biba that i am, i raised my right hand and asked, "sir, ilan rice po sa lunch namin?" sensible naman di ba. hehehe. boss said, i'll be given a rice cooker for that. hahaha!!!

para ako palang bibitayin ano? i sumptuously ate lunch, with matching choco cake as dessert courtesy of a fellow associate, celline. afterwhich, it was as if there's no tomorrow. the work went on.

at thirty minutes past 2pm, tita thelma, alex' mom sent an SMS that it was a favorable decision for alex' case. talk about justice finally served. i am just as happy as they are.
