5s at office

Papers, Books, envelops, folders, plastics, box, pen, cartons scissors, calculators, well they are all around the corners in our office. (I'll try to post pix sometime hehe) and well they are really an eyesore. No proper filing, putting different stuff together, no labels, haha what a working area isn't it? Hay, I always get frustrated looking for files and I think my workmates also do feel the same.

I've done a little 5s in my workplace today. Sorted papers, reports, filed documents, labeled folders, thrown away unnecessary stuff. I had a long day doing it but I think it was a little fun and worthwhile. Just seeing a well thought-out area well makes us more stimulating get done with our task ahead of time.

While doing my 5s (ohh I think I only did 1s--sort hehe) , I asked my workmates to also do the same on their area ( anyway we are starting our QMS, 5s might be a great help) I just do hope they may also do their share (and might be not in attendance in a little while on their social networking toil ...lol) . They might like to have a custom divider wizard to start doing their own 5s. Who might want to have a cluttered work space anyway?

A chaotic workspace I think also indicates a chaotic mind, and this is not the message I want to send to my superiors or to our customers.

And since 5S stands for Sort-Set in order-Shine-Standardize-Sustain, It would be better to start first with: SORT – We need to go through with our stuff. Though, it might be a daunting task and sometimes a stumbling block need to dedicate some time to sorting so a good idea is to come in on. Our goal is to get rid of as much as possible. We might consider having a storage box and label them as follows:

Things I need and use every day

Things I occasionally need

Things I haven't touched in over three months and have no need for

--------*****---------

we are still on our level one--- just beginning--- where necessary and unnecessary stuff are mixed together. I just do hope we could do it right at put a commitment on it!!!!

Unforgettable

It is already Tuesday, but I could still feel in my veins what had happened last Saturday. Hehe, haven’t get rid with it and the hangover is still there.

Whoops, it is not about drinking liquor, it is about our very long Ph.D. final exam ( anyway my “kalyo” is still aching”). I think my classmates also do feel the same, it is my very first time, hahaha, first timers predicament I think!!

I am thinking now if what I have written is good enough to justify my callous, if my grammars are in good shape. How could I forget that in the last hour of our exam, my hands already refusing to write for it already shakes and could no longer form a single word (and so my mind too.)

Anyway, I haven’t slept the whole night then before my exam, nope , I didn’t review nor read my notes hehe… it is just because I need to prepare stuff of my daughter because she’ll be going to a fieldtrip (huhuhu, I wasn’t able to be with her!!!!)

An unforgettable experience, but it was fun…

Gentle with myself

I just started my "Losing weight" plan a while ago, and got this message from my Facebook account.

Hayy!!! I should realize it by now that in order for me to achieve my Weight goal, I should BE GENTLE with Myself!! Thank God for knocking my head!!

This will be the first on my self imposed rule, a Self imposed Policy, a motivation now and maybe forever...

And of course the other one..BE KIND and SUPPORTIVE . I will surely highlight it on my journal!

Have a Happy Wednesday everyone!!!
