Ennui is a feeling of weariness and dissatisfaction. Ennui is different from boredom in that ennui describes weariness or annoyance over a long period of time; boredom is relieved easily, while ennui is continual.
My ennui doesn't come totally from my work, I reckon it's due to the lousy weekend. Anyway, I'd like to share my official first day of work which started off with collecting of blue-tack (from walls), pins (from vacant seats), doodling on the whiteboard at my desk and finding the perfect chair (with LESSER hairs clung to the seat). After an interesting conversation over lunch with the "older men", things began to pick up... Some administrative work came in during the later part of the day and arghhh... had to overtime for an hour.
Today. I was stunned when my AD (assistant director) passed me a camcorder and told me it's in my care. The following morning, there will be a meeting where I'm asked to shoot some pictures/videos. Wow, I like! I enjoy a variety in my job scope. The whole morning till early afternoon, I nearly died, partly due to my nose, the rest due to the long wait. I have been waiting to get my hands on writing up a report, which just happened to come in about 5 minutes ago.
I would like to elaborate on my really annoying + boring Saturday but... work has just come in. I better get going before I have to stay an hour or two in the office. Anyway, to keep it short and satisfy your curiosity, I have to say a boring company can really kill (me). I realised I have no patience for indecisiveness, uncommunicativeness, meekness and passiveness, I can die when someone like this is going to hang out with me. So please... No, don't torture me...
p/s: For the last entry, I also don't know why tables can't work well in Blog-city!
