May be some of would want to read about what actually happened to me.</p>
<p align="justify">Let me start from the beginning and that is from the time before I went missing in action and the event that took place following that so that you would have the whole picture on what happened back then.</p>
<p align="justify">I worked for a small IT company that had 15 staffs at the time when I joined them in 2000. Things was going fine where I worked myself up from a senior consultant to the software manager. In 2004, they had some financial crisis due to some super duper business planning where the overhead became more than the profit. Due to some pressures from the owners and other factors that I did not know, one by one started to leave the company, including the managing director, which left the company with a malnourished body, a weak tail and without a head. Just imagine that…</p>
<p align="justify">The owners than made an offer to a few of us to stay back and mend the sinking ship. We were offered a mall amount of shares and in return we had to patch up all the holes and ensure that it remained afloat. <span id="more-619"></span></p>
<p align="justify">By the way, for your information, the company was a reseller of a <strong>technologically challenged</strong> piece of ERP software called SYSPR*, where the principal managed it from Sydney, Australia and Bangalore, India. And yet they claimed to be well versed with the customers and market trend in Malaysia. It beats me until now how they manage to arrogantly claim that.</p>
<p align="justify">Anyway, I took over the company as the general manager, software manager, account manager, project manager, debt collector, runner, etc officially in 2004 with a total headcount of 3 staffs. It was really tough in the beginning where we even did not get our salaries for a few months so that we could pay our suppliers and principal, which was acting worse than a loan shark, first.</p>
<p align="justify">However, our hard work and perseverance paid off and we managed to break even in 2006 and eventually made profits in 2007 and 2008. That’s when the whole trouble began…</p>
<p align="justify">To be continued…</p>

<p>My apologies to all my friends and loyal readers of this blog as there has been no new post until today. I just need  to tell all of you that I am currently in a work related crisis of the colossal proportion. The magnitude of the crisis is giving me no desire and motivation to put up a decent entry and I am not sure when the next entry will come as I am in the midst of trying my best to resolve this unexpected problem.</p>
<p>So please bear with me and wish me luck and send me your prayers!</p>
<p>Thanks and I will be seeing all you again!</p>
