Another frustrating long weekend...

Well well well... How bad can it go...

On a Monday I tell my company to transfer me back to my country, they finally wake up... The reason for my asking for a transfer back was a piece of telephone information I received from the Migration Office, that it will take about 8-9 weeks before she can finally join me here. I told my mgmt that I am in no mood to wait that long... that I am done with my job and life here and they would better start planning to send me back...

That's when they wake up and decide to try and pull some strings... Poor messy management...They waited until I gave them the ultimatum. Well, next thing I know that the country head and the sales head and who all are trying to salvage the situation. Well, then next day I receive an email from the contact person in company that the migration office have promised to deliver my resident permit in one week (earlier from 4 weeks) and they will speed up her processing as well.

As I have come to understand, the migration office people are smart in making up stories.. they really are. I have heard at least 4-5 versions of such stories from these guys tracing my processing. So, I told my top bosses, that this story better be true, since the migration people have a nack for stories...

I guess, they understood that, because I got the read receipts for my mails... but no replies...

Now I am waiting for the agreed response on Monday.

The week being short, not much was expected anyway, but I hope I can extract some good news on Monday.

And, personally, our fights continue.. and there is just one and only root cause... our frustration of living apart... In there also, we were seeing each other on weekends only... and here also.. we are set apart due to some messy management examples by my dear organization. Courtesy to that, every third or fourth day, we end up arguing about more or less the same thing and spend hours and hours consoling each other.

I have spent about 50 dollars already on my phone bill in just 3-4 weeks...

Great examples set by my professional life for my personal life... :(

And, to top all that...there are more and more long weekends lined up for me... Especially when I am in no position to go anywhere, or use them to a better option. And, I know for sure, when she is here (if) and I would need these long weekends, I would not get any of them... There will not be any holidays for me to use... hard luck me... hard luck...

Suddenly I am losing all my wish to enjoy my stay in Switzerland. I don't feel like visiting places that I am so close to .. and have been waiting to visit ever since. Places I have seen only in movies or on Television... Feel so terrible and pathetic... I can't do anything but wait.


Baught my precious dream camera here, expecting to put it to good use once I am settled here... And now... Its waiting here.. Actually not even with me... a friend has a new baby, and his own camera broke and therefore I allowed him to use it... Me, who never parts himself from his camera, just gave it away for weeks... just like that.. of course thats a dear friend and all that... but i couldn't have imagined myself without a camera before being in this situation.

u see.. where am i headed...
