I was hoping that this morning everything will run smoothly. Yeah, it was kind a big day for me, guys. After quite a while, today, I've been granted an interview with SPP for the govt post. Actually, I was kind of nervous too...and not in the mood either. I guess you know why...besides 'that reason', I still feeling exhausted with all the hire wire of finding things in our new living quarters.
Gosh! Did I mentioned to you earlier that we just moved in to our new shelter for just a week plus...Just imagine...how messy the house could be. Luckily, the interview was held in Putrajaya. Thank God! Nearby home..
So, with the little notes in hand about anything related to the govt, I was dressing up with 3 piece garments- a black pant, a strippy blouse and a formal black jacket with a leather shoe. All were bought from Perth except for the shoe which was specially come from DFO, Spencer St, Melbourne. I guess it was a perfect combination! Well, I'm sorry if you get annoyed with my exaggeration, guys...I didn't mean to show off or something like that...just over describing I would say..hahaha..
Actually I have another solid reason, for not to wear our formal 'baju kurung'. You know the weather, it was hot & humid you see. Furthermore, I love to be in the most comfortable outfits, which I guess that was.
To make the story more complicated, when I was about to be called upon for the interview, then come this lady who assisted me to fill in form before I can actually go in.
She then whispered to me, do you mind change your outfit to a more proper one? Excuse me? Aren't this proper enough? I used to wear this kind of outfit for several interviews..I explained firmly. 'Oh, tu swasta puan...ni gomen, lain sket, baju kurung lebih afdal..' she replied innocently. OOOOoooo...I went speechless.
Well, I quite surprised myself for not to grumble or feel disturbed with that comment though but to quickly drove back to nearby home and started ironing my 'red raya baju kurung'. So, on the way back to the interview place which took me only 15-20 min to & fro, I tucked in Kenny G CD just to slow down my nerve and boosted back my mood.
After all, only 1 best word I would describe pertaining to this...RIDICULOUS!
CHA???

For REAL Een? That's absurd! I cant believe they actually told you to change. What about non-malay? Are they going to force them to wear baju kurung as well? Dumb ass!
goodluck een moga2 reseki anak
zara- betul giler punye ni..i pon x sangka kuar statement tu dari mulut die..
s n t- for real k.farina..memula tu i maleh nak post this story but i guess somehow boleh gak ia menjadi 1 kenangan 'terindah' spg i kena interview & boleh juga menjadi panduan dlm dress code pada sesape yg nak interbiu keje gomen.. huhu..
intan- to che, to che, ade rezeki ade la, kalu xde nak wat cemane kan
Banyak cekadak. Abih kalau non-muslim / non-malays nak mintak kerja gomen camana?Diorg tak pakai baju kurung gi, tak dapat kerja lah? tak afdal katanya. Ooo, padanlah tak ramai non-malays yg kerja ngan kerajaan. Gini kerenah nya. LOL Pehtu kata cina ngan india tak suka kerja kerjaaan.
Awal2 dah nampak diskriminasi.
Apa2 pun Een moga ada rezeki Een.
Hi, saw your blog from Zara. Anyway, mmg betul... gomen except for Kementerian Belia dan Sukan, perempuan mmg takleh pakai pants, hehe. Baju kurung and long skirts only, hahaha! I don't know what's the logic behind this except the fact that they still treat women like second class citizen, in some ways.
Sigh.
Tu yg penat ngan bangsa I di M'sia nih sekarang...aiyaiyai! Heran gak, kenapa tak boleh pakai pants n jacket? Kalau pakai jubah macamana? Sebab ramai yg opt for jubah than baju kurung now. I rasa what she was trying to say kena pakai yg ke Islaman kot? Ikut jer lah Een sebab I ada cousin yg kena boycott sb perihal pakaian ni. Buat sakit jiwa jer kalau lawan.
