My First Boss

Lim Swee Ken

He is Lim Swee Ken, 49 going 50 on 2004. Standing at 1.5m, weighing 65kg, he is a small man with huge ambitions. He is the owner of a 30hectar freshwater fish farm in Yong Peng, A major shareholder of Meyer Sdn. Bhd. (a jewellery distributor), and the GM of Diamondlink. The first time I met him was during my interview for a job in Diamondlink. The first impression he gave me was "wise-old-man" kind of feeling. After knowing him for quite sometime, I realised that he's actually a humorous and open-minded person. Even though he is my boss, we can talk about almost everything under the sun. No doubt he is good in cracking jokes too. He's also a generous person. He'll give us (his fellow employees) free treats from time to time. Like any other boss, he has a temper of his own. When business doesn't look good, the wisest thing to do is to stay at least a few feet away from him, or else you'll "kena tembak". From what I see, he dotes his children very much but is not really a romantic husband. However, there's one thing that I really don't like about this boss. And that is his lecherous side. He has a nasty habit of "touching" my female colleagues. Fortunately, he stopped this pervertic behavior when one of our male colleague raised this matter to him. Overall, I think he is a good boss, and I'll always regard him as a respected elderly friend.
