Crash Boom Bang!

I wanted to write about this unexpected ordeal which happened less than three months ago but never really had the time to do it. Anyways, what happened to me was pretty scary plus funny. Hmm, how is that funny and scary?

I was seated quietly at my cubicle when suddenly I heard a soft cracking sound. Upon hearing that sound I looked down at my chair to check it out. There was nothing different so I continued doing my work. Then suddenly I heard a big cracking sound, and before I know it, my chair swayed to the left and the chair base just snapped. It happened so fast that all I can remember was me still seated in the chair but the chair just broke and fell right on the floor. I was caught off guard and that explains why I did not utter a single word or even scream for help. The first person who came to my rescue was this new male colleague of mine. Malu sungguh saya! Thank god when I fell with the chair I was in a very decent manner..kalau I flipped backwards...tak tau la apa nak jadi!:D

Then all the guys came rushing towards my cubicle. They had worried looks on their faces. They even told me what got them so worried was the possibility that I might have fainted due to my fragile condition since at that point of time I had just lost my mom. But now when they talk about it, they can't stop laughing and they even said,"Wahh..Mr X was really fast when he came to your rescue, apa tunggu lagi, good candidate tu since he is nice, responsible and still single!"......etc

Well, one thing's for sure, I did not faint people, I blame it totally on the “faulty and flimsy" chair! It was definitely too worn out to be used. Muahahaha! By the way, I got my new chair today and before the new chair came, I was using the normal VERY comfy bosses' chair for the three whole month. Well, since they had an extra, I can’t help but use it temporaryla kan.

The faulty chair...all broken! Bye-bye!

I was talking to my sis about it and she said it happened to her once when she first joined an organization..Hahaha!..what a way eh to welcome a new staff! Another story I heard was a guy whose chair gave way during an important meeting. That is scary!

I wonder whether any of you out there experienced anything similar to my crash boom bang episode?

P/S: Selamat berpuasa/Happy fasting to all muslims, this time round, ramadhan will be very challenging without my arwah mama around, like always I will take one day a time.
