It was Sunday(12th July 2009) evening, I was back to my room after a weekend with my family. I woke up early for that day for a wedding function in Gurdwara. So, once I return straight change my clothes and jump on my Mr Bed for quick nap for couple of hours. Once awake, just fresh up myself and sat in front of my computer to prepare my task and material for classes during the week. (Gosh! I just saw Air Asia's A320 flew above my room while I am writing this blog, its a total beauty....hehehe)

As normal, I check all my mails when I first sit in front of my computer. And there was something that was not suspected to happen which I had receive an email from Air Asia Crew informing me that I am been call up for an interview for a job that I had requested. I was not too convince that is that the email from the Crew. I showed the mail to my roommate and he congratulated me and told this a good opportunity to be in number one airline in Asia. Alright then, so it is not a dream then. "Lets do it, do it with honor" that was the sound in my heart said. The interview was scheduled on Wednesday (15th) at 3pm. My mind so nervous and started to count the countdown for Wednesday...I know it sound weird but was so excited!!!

Day by day, time had pass by and there is the day I been waiting for, Wednesday (15th July). I was up in the morning and attended my all my classes till afternoon in a high spirit mode. In that high spirit, there was something which made me felt angry which was class been delayed to finish as the lecturer wanted to finish the particular topic on that day too....SIGH!! After class, quick rush to room and had a quick change before bouncing off to LCCT Sepang. As I was late, my room mate did speed up more than normal highway maximum speed so that I wont be late for my interview. Thanks Satkuru...
Once in LCCT compound, everyone will have the dilemma of finding nearer parking spot to the terminal. I wonder what does all Air Asia crew feel everyday by parking further away from the terminal. Hope the proposal of having a new LCCT will be resolve soon.

Back to my post, as I was preparing myself to the interview venue which is in the Air Asia main office in LCCT I been ask to show my identification card (IC) to register myself as visitor before I proceed into the office. The guard was strict but was not rude to me. He ask it politely due to the protocol of any airline company for a visitor to register themselves before entering. The atmosphere at the entrance was so busy as many crew members of Air Asia moving in and out of the office. It is nice to see them because their smiles made my nervous feelings went away in a split second. Now I knew why Air Asia had become the partner of sponsoring the AT&T Williams & Oakland Raiders team. It is because, Air Asia is so rich with their smiles and low profile concept.

For everyone's kind information, the atmosphere inside the office is much more than I had expected like a normal office with a quiet breeze of sound but in Air Asia, all the crew are busy with their own task. They have their meeting rooms named after famous destinations to be at for holidays such as Jakarta meeting room, Bali Meeting Room and more. Back in the office, some crew been seen conducting meetings in the meeting rooms, some are having short discussion before their shift starts, the flight attendants (they were so beautiful and so friendly) are informing each other about their routes, the pilots was talking about the bad haze during the day, ground Marshall walking in and out and many more. In short, there was no time of talking anything except for work with each other in the office. I just knew how is the situation of an airline company runs because their main objective for the day would be making sure all aircraft leaves and comes on a tight schedule and to reduce time delay for all passengers. Oh ya, if you ask me how do I know these? Well the answer is I was waiting for my Interview instructor at the main lobby in the office and I saw this wonderful airline team working.

In brief, the environment in the office is so red-dish as it was a celebration festival which Air Asia is "painting the town red" such Chinese New Year Celebration,Hari Raya and many more but it is actually the original layout color of the office. There is one thing which really amaze me which is the floor is been filled with red lights which is the replica design a runaway look alike. Oh yes, it look simply awesome and creative too. It is simply superb and wish to that individual who had this idea : "Well Done". Oh ya, when I entered the office there is a very sweet and humble receptionist at the main entrance to guide me which office I should be in. Not forgetting, there was two big aircraft models of Air Asia's A320's and also A330's. That was a nice feeling to see that while entering and trust me,after what I felt and saw in the office my nurveousness went off just like a strong wind just blew it away from me.

This is all about my experience and will write more....See you all soon...

Bon Voyage,
