After Houseman Culture Shock Syndrome in the first two days, Fooji is learning to enjoy HO life in Taiping Hospital, one of the busiest hospitals in Malaysia.
Working from 6.45 to 11pm everyday during the 'tagging period'.
If being posted to Taiping is God's will, He must be using the ridiculous bureucratic methods in distributing our postings in major hospitals all over the country.
Anyway, I am not going to complain or pursue an appeal anymore. Will settle for Taiping and looking forward to a satisfying year of OBLIGATORY POSTINGs.
Thanks to Mr.Gee(KLGH surgeon), Dr.Huajern, church friends, Ai, and family, and colleagues for your encouraging support and consolation. *smiles*
The poslaju man finally came today, after heavy speculation. I was topless, eating nasi kandar with my dad, with a piece of ayam merah in my left hand when i heard the van honked.
I went out, knowing for sure the letter has arrived.
"Dr.Foo..Chee Hoe?" The topless fooji with a chicken in one hand said , "Yes, that's right".
When I opened the letter, and saw...Anda ditempatkan di HOSPITAL TAIPING... I went speechless for some time, keep re-reading the sentence for many times before announcing to my dad and call my mom, and call my girlfriend, poong, pang, and all that....
It was shocking, and disappointing, because i thought i'll surely get Ipoh since Pam and YKM also got Ipoh, as well as some coursemate of mine who got Ipoh when it is not even their first choice.
More than 6 hours now, feeling better now...and starting to like the decision, though I have prepared so well to stay in my Ipoh home for at least another year...was going to buy TV and DVD player for my room some more...sigh!
Anyway...just to announce that Fooji is going to work in Taiping. Still debating whether to try appealing to the State Health Department on Monday to transfer to Ipoh.
