suspense aje!

*phone ringing
saw that it's the gm's secretary, answered with a frown.
me: (how come she's calling me on the phone when she's sitting just 2 steps away from me?) hello?
gm's sec: hi, gm wants to see u at 2pm later.
me: oh? did he say what's it regarding?
gm's sec: no. he just said to make an appointment with u at 2.
me: (what do i still owe him? i think i've done all the things that he asked me to do. and my work is up-to-date. what could it be? think! think!)

*for the next 2 hours
me: (what did he wanna speak to me about? my job performance? have i not been performing? maybe he wants to speak to me about my immediate superior, the empress dowager? should i tell him what a tyrant she is? what if he wants to fire me? i guess it's ok to go home too... at least my parents would be happy. could this be just part of the company program, to have the gm have one-on-one dialogue sessions with its staff? *brooding*pondering*)

me: boss, u wanted to see me?
gm: yes. u're on facebook a lot, right?
me: (oh shit, he's going to reprimand me for being on facebook all day!) erm... yes.
gm: ok. i just went into the facebook a few days back...
me: (oh shit, he's going to comment that i've not been updating the company facebook often enough!)
gm: ...and i accidentally accepted a friend request from someone without thinking and now i'm regretting it. what should i do so that he doesn't get to see what i post in there?
me: (*phew* apa lar, u asked ur secretary to help u set an appointment with me for this??)

sigh, another bad habit of mine... thinking too much! no wonder i shed so much hair, esp since i came here. 
*note to self: minimize facebook time when in the office, esp when the gm's in!
