Lot happen in the last week.

My work contract have been terminated and they leave untouch the kitas until it's end in July. Somehow the feeling tend more on the happiness than on the depress. The job was not good.
The company who never had foreigner before handle my departure like if I was Indonesian... which mean a got a departure bonus of almost a year of salary.

They ask me if I want give back the computer or keep it and being cut... I didn't even ask for how much it will cost for keep it, it's a total junk and start to have serious problem of over heating (i think the hard drive will implode soon). I had to run buy a new computer, transfer all my stuff from one to another and erase all my personal data on the old one.
So far I'm as much as someone can be sastisfy with a 5 Juta computer... except a bug with the pad this morning after a couple of update.
Passing from windows XP to Windows 8... it's quite drastic! I was a little bit lost in the beginning!

The rest of the life is just as normal than habitually...
The younger one just pop up in between me in the computer holding a pink glasses toy and telling me: papa cantik
For people who don't know "cantiq" mean beautiful for a WOMAN. What she want is papa become "cantiq" by wearing the pink glasses.
yah... thats true! I will be "cantiq" if I wear those pink glesses.

and she is very insisting, a simple "no" is far to impress her and repress her willing to have a "cantiq" daddy.... Please someone help me!!!

Just for the record, there is no difference in between the terminaison of an Indonesian employee or a foreign employee. Both are granted the very same rights and bonuses. The only difference being that foreign workers are entitled to a ticket back home.

I heard so many story of expat being fired without being paid and all the other who get not even have their exit permit...

I somehow feel lucky to have it easy, even more when I think I didn't even had a official contract with them...

If rainy day make you energic, you should try to live around here, you will be constantly energic!

Don't think it's any different for Indonesian. I know a bunch of guys who have been fired in conditions which are pretty far from what it should.
