Sneak Peak into Nuffnang's New KL Office

1 Year Ago

Dad
: Oi!! Your KL Office is pathetic lar! Could you please do something about it? Clients come to your office also damn shameful!


Me: No lah Dad no need lar!!! Save cost a bit!! The clients also understand that we're a Dotcom startup.

6 Months Ago

Dad: OI!!! WILL YOU PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR OFFICE?!?!

Me
: No lah Dad!! Save cost lar... we're a Dotcom Startup lah!!!
2 Months Ago

Dad: OI!!! Do you still call yourself a Dotcom startup after how the company has grown so much? CHANGE YOUR OFFICE TO SOMETHING MORE PRESENTABLE CAN OR NOT?!?!

Me: *sigh*

I gave in to the pressure and today our team in KL moved into our new office.

Let me give you guys a sneak peak and a short tour of our office right before we moved all our stuff in.

(Please forgive me as I am a terrible photographer and had a hard time trying to take good pictures of the place, can't seem to get the right angles).

When you walk into our new office, the first thing you see is a glass meeting room in the middle.
Then there are two sides to the office, the so called West Wing and East Wing.


I'll be sitting on the East Wing on this big table here.

That's right, I don't have my own fancy office or anything simply because it's just not really our culture at Nuffnang for the bosses to sit in their own private office.

We all sit together, laugh together, joke together and listen to the same music together and that's just the way I want it to be.

The office has two seperate toilets. Meant to be one for guys and one for girls but I think the Nuffies have instead allocated each toilet by "virtue of business".

If you want to do big business that will stink up the toilet for half an hour, then you use the toilet on the West Wing.View from the corner of the West Wing to the East

If you want to do small business that will have no effect on the air around the toilet then you use the toilet on the East Wing.

Then on the East Wing where I sit there is our favourite "NUFFIE'S CORNER".

Bean bags, big pillows and blankets to sleep in if you're tired during working hours.


I think we might be expanding on our Nuffie Corner but well ... all in good time.

Oh and unlike the previous KL Office, we now have a.... KETTLE (or hot water dispenser or whatever you call it) and a microwave.

Oh.. and to dear Mehlin and Ron... you gotta see this.

We finally have...

A FRIDGE!!!!! Something both Penang and Singapore office has had for the longest damn time in the world but KL office never had.We were all so deprived!

Anyway, whew... more moving to do. Next month I hear the team in Singapore is moving into a spanking new office as well.

Don't think they'll have as much space as us though... right Ming?

Land in Singapore is expensive.

PS: Eh speaking of our Nuffnang Team ar.. if you haven't signed up to challenge us and other Nuffnangers in Counter-strike at the WCG, quickly go sign up before it's too late!

  13. the office looks really really posh and modern looking! :D but one thing I am afraid is that...those glass-like/cubicle/separators/ mirrors?...People can easily walk into it, no? xD funny view nonetheless...imagine you're working then suddenly one of your colleagues bang into the glass thingy....expression = priceless! xD
