who would have thought…

I worked until quite late yesterday, until it was way past the time I should be leaving the lab. When I realized that, it was already too late. The entrance out from the manufacturing area (I was inside my lab which was located deep within the factory’s manufacturing area) was already congested with shuttlecock head operators.

I had no choice but to queue with those bunch of Neanderthal operators (coz I’m already late to fetch Emily) towards the security checkpoint. Had to hold my breath, because the place stank. Nevermind that.

As I was queuing halfway through, suddenly, I heard someone calling my name in lecherous manner from my back - “Hellllloooo Michael ~~~”

It was so bitterly gross that it pierced my brain like a stiletto full of HIV virus — I had goosebumps popping up from my scalp to the tip of my toe. It was Candy. No Candy is not a girl. Candy is actually a bloke. A bloke with some problem. Problems with his sexuality. He got red colored shoulder length hair (a very bad color..), with a pair of William So’s spectacles … plus some piercings around his face.. and was as skinny as the Sea Hag

And he was just a couple inches away queuing behind me….

“Hi Candy.” [sweat trickling down my forehead]
“Oohh .. why do you come out at this houurrrrrr ~~~?”
“Lots of work .. lost track of time..”
“It’s very crowdy at this hour do you know that ~~huh huh uh uh huuh huh ~~?”

Then, he proceeded to flirt around with some of the operators around him, and sang some hokkien songs with his gruesome voice. I tell you, I was so damn scared at that particular moment - he looked as if he’s ready to mount on anything and plow as he like. He’s a very fearsome pondan.

Now, how did I manage to know someone as catastrophic as him ? Well, it happened 7 years ago when I first joined this company. Back then, he was still like a normal guy. We were in the same room - he was waiting for his interview and I was waiting to sign an offer letter. He faced some difficulty taking the English test (coz he’s illiterate) and so, being a nice guy I am…. I helped him out. I guess he kinda got through the interview and since then, he always greeted me whenever he saw me around. A token of gratitude perhaps.

A few years later, he embraced the dark force. I mean, who would have thought a nice young guy would eventually turn into a fearsome creature like what he is now ? Damn unbelievable.

So, please, guys, make sure you don’t antagonize people around you too much .. coz you’ll never know that one day, that guy might turn himself into some she-male .. and rape the daylights out of you…

PS: I went through the security checkpoint without harm.
