Arsyan's Tumblr - ("X

("X_X) with ming

ming:
arsyan
pick up
arsyan:
wait im having conversation with tim for a while
ming:
yup
ok
you ready?
arsyan:
shit ...
did tim tell u
ming:
yes
of course he did!
arsyan:
man ...
ming:
listen
i'm fine
pick up your phone
i'm not going to scold you or anything
!
hAHAHAHHAH
arsyan:
haha .. i dont feel like talking now ...
why dont we just msn haha
ming:
ok
fine... but i will still want to talk to you
i dun like msn .
as it masks the true person
lso tel
me arsyan
why
is the first question always asked
arsyan:
well
like i told tim
its the best interest for both the company and me
im just not happy working with nuffnang
ming:
why?
i know you dun like me ... but is there an outside reason?
besides that?
arsyan:
: P
how can u say that
haha
ming:
hhahaah listen lah ... its ok ...
we all have roles to play
the harder person ...
its a persona
and my natural instinct too
ewe tiam on the other hand is softer
its his natural instinct
from the trip
it was not hard to tell also lah ...
i felt sad
but hey
i get that alot ....
arsyan:
hard to tell what ?
ming:
hard to tell that you din't like me lah
dude
i never said that
ming:
look dude ... seriously dun worry about it
arsyan:
and i never gave any signal that i dont
ming:
i got too big an ego to worry about it!
hahahahahah
arsyan:
u think carefully
i sat with u infront most of the time in the car
i struck conversation with u most of the time
rather that the rest of the ppl in the group
and u think i dont like u ?
im not kissing ur ass or anything
ming:
i understand
but it doesnt matter
this is all secondary
you must obviously not like something about nuffnang
and i can tell you ... nuffnang
right now
being as small as it is
is a culmination of both me and tiam
so there is something between the two of us...
that you dun like ... or are uncomfortable with
i know you've always been unsettled
and both me and tiam have tried to make things easier for you to settle in
that is why
with that knowledge
today's "announcement"
does not come as a surprise
arsyan:
i understand ...
and i appriciate what u 2 have done
and i think
its the best of both of our interest correct
ming:
ok
arsyan:
since this does not come in as a suprise for u
i mean whats the point ...
of both of us pretending we need each other
ming:
its in the best of BOTH our interests
only on conditions
arsyan:
yes definately
ming:
firstly, that you finish up the work dude on NN2.0
arsyan:
well
that might be a problem
ming:
why?
dun tell me you lack the skills
that is nonsense
and we both know it
a simple perpetuation
of our current system is all that is needed
arsyan:
its not that
i just dont think i can go thru with it
its just wasint my time and effort only
ming:
well i'm sorry
but this needs to be done
your contract states two months notice .... and that is till october
that is when nn2.0 is due to launch
now you can sit in
and do nothing ... but ....
there will be consequences
which legally we are allowed to do
for example dock your pay ....
during the two months ....
i'm sorry ... but this needs to be done
arsyan:
i dont understand .. dock ?
meaning ?
ming:
meaning ... if you within the two months
refuse to do anything
sit on your thumb
you will not be collecting your pay ... as it is prescribed in your contracts
you will face penalties
so your two months of time
you will "waste"
and we won't "waste" much money on you either because the truth
is that you are taking us for a ride
which i cannot allow
arsyan:
well i woudlnt want to take u guys for a ride
beleive me
ming:
then help us
tat is all i ask
help us move a little bit forward
dun leave us in the lurch
arsyan:
in fact
i dont even expect u guys to pay me if u still want me to work
because ...
i rather much HELP nuffnang rather than WORK FOR nuffnang
ming:
If that is the case
i feel alot more assured ....
but like i said dude ...
NN2.0
needs to launch
you know you have the capabilities
if you can do it within a shorter time
as i believe you can
you can go sooner
for all i care ...
i just want results
i need something
from thiswhole experience
it was not easy approaching you
there were alot f apprehension and doubt on our side
and we just do not want you to be a complete failure on our side ...
with no results to show
arsyan:
yes u see
i already sense this from u guys
the "doubtful" vibe uve been sending
ming:
of course
we judge people
by results
we were waiting for today
a warrior
would rise to the challenge
and show us something good
better than what we expect
such that all doubts.
would be cleared
instead ....
i am sorry to have to come to another conclusion today
arsyan:
haha
yeah
im sorry too
ming:
its the truth
is it not?
arsyan:
as of this moment .. yeah it is
ming:
on the ONE deadline ....
the first one ....
we have naught to show ....
it is unfortunate ....
arsyan:
it is unfortunate .. i didnt expect this is how i would feel in nuffnang
but this is how it is ....
i dont feel happy
i dont have the courage
ming:
so yes arsyan .... as i said
the first condition is that you do up as much of your work
as possible before your time is up
the second is ...
its a responsibility
if you understand that
i dun feel happy alot of the times
when shit happens
but i get up eveery morning
smile
and say hi to the client
wipe his ass
so i get the deal
i am responsible
to Ewe TIam
and to my workers!
if i dun get this deal!
I may have to fire somebody?
Where is the money?
Its not about courage ... its about responsibility
arsyan:
well
i dont think i can bare the responsibility anymore
i mean u and ewetiam
has done a great job in marketting and getting clients
very impressed
ming:
ok lah dude ...
its as simple as this lah
submit your resignation ... and you will leave 2 months from now ...
within those two months .. work on nn2.0
the faster you finish
the faster you leave
second thing is where you plan to go after this
as you know
there is a non compete clause
at the same time
you are bound by an NDA ...
arsyan:
i know lah
dun worry
ming:
we worry ...
arsyan:
im not as a BETRAYER as u might think i am
hahahah
ming:
Hahhaahaha
wheather that is the case or not ... we have to state mah
arsyan:
correct
ewe tiam and nuffnang and u
will still be my friends
and partner and share ideas
ming:
That is good
arsyan:
its just that
i dont feel right right now
anwyay
i wont be going to any company
i will prlly go to japan and seek my soul
im lost right now
really really lost
ming:
Hahahah .... ok dude ...
that is fine ...
if that is the case
i will hook you up with friends in japan ... if you dun have any ....
arsyan:
u dont know how hard it is for me to tell this to tim today
i ve been dreading for weeks already
consulting ppl etc.
ming:
its fine ...
arsyan:
and i just want to say to u
im trully sorry
and i think its wise for me to step it up earlier .. than sooner
ming:
its ok .... i'm sorry too
sorry ... because
i could not make you happy in nuffnang
arsyan:
i dont want this to end bad
and i hope both of us can be civil on this
anyway im gonna jump of the balcony soon after this
then easy hahahahhaha
ming:
hahaha dun do that ....
after that you haunt the office how
Hehehe joking
arsyan:
well
tell me something
from the begenning ..
upon head hunting me frm adv
when tim told u
hes getting me in
u were partially disagree in brining me in correct ?
i mean tiam insist on it right ?
ming:
no
all decisions are made jointly
and if i wasnt convinced you would not be in today
i was only worried
that you would spy for advertlets ...
which we took precations against ... and we took thedive ...
in asense ...
arsyan:
haha
beleaive me
when the moon falls down on my lap
would only i go to josh
ming:
ahahahaha ...
arsyan:
and im not that kind of person to spy ..
i have ethics
i dont even look at the bloggers password in the database
because i thikn its unethical
ming:
that is the primary concern ... but as a warning shot ... if that happens .... we will defend ourslves ...with all neccrssary might ...
it is our lives
you must understand
nuffnang is me and ewe tiam
we have sacrificed
everything for this
arsyan:
i know
i understand
yeah i wouldnt want to be that person
ming:
and it must succeed
so dude
we want to be civil ... and we wil lact as such
do what you can .. and should for NN2.0
at least
bring it to the level
it is now
rework the code ....
tim will proof it
as soon as that is done
you may leave ...
i will
not hold you to the 2 months
we will continue to be friends
and you can rest assured that we will be good ones
arsyan:
hehe
