Lumapit si Empleyado, na nakasuot ng makapal na jaket,nanginginig sa lamig at ngongo na sa pagsasalita dahil sasipon, kay Manager para magpaalam na uuwi dahil nilalagnat sha.

Empleyado: Sir, half day lang po ako ngayon.
Manager: Baket?????
Empleyado: Nilalagnat po ako (sabay singhot)
Manager: Aba hindi kapuede umuwi,wala kang pruweba na my sakit ka!
Ako: dahil sa narinig ko ang usapan nila at bilang superior ni empleyado gustoko sumabat ng "DUH! Di ho ba obvious?"
Manager: You needto have the authorization of the doctor to be able to justify your claim that youre sick.
Empleyado; Sir, hapon pa dadating si doc,baka huli na ang lahat pagdumating sha.
Manager: Well,if that's the case,ipalilibing nalang kita.

(shempre jokelng po yung sagot ni manager ha! hehehe)

Turns out hindi sinunod ni empleyado ang payo ng manager atumuwi nalang sha ng walang permiso ni doc. =D.

Eksena Numero Dos
Addidas Store sa Festival Supermall

Ako: Hello,ekskyusmi Miss, pede ba dito magpa register para sa Marathon ng Addidas this coming Saturday sa The Fort for the Gawad Kalinga Expo.
Hindi Kagandahang Store Clerk: Sir, wala pong ganung marathon for Gawad Kalinga, meron po kami para sa Addidas Marathon lang.
Ako: Ah ganun ba,pero ganito rin ba ang details (sabay litanya ng exact details ng nasabing event).
HKSC: Sir ganun nga po,pero hindi po kami yung sa Gawad Kalinga.
Ako: Pero hindi ba obvious na same place and time yung event natin,so basically yun din yun.
HKSC: Sir hindi nga po, puede po ba later ko nalang kayo entertain,madami po kasi nakapila eh.
Ako; lumabas ng store ng di nagpaalam.

Ang ending, I need togo to Podium mall later today para duon magparegister, baka naman since sosyal ang mall eh may commonsense din an mga staff.

Lessons Learned for Today

I had a very hectic morning schedule today. First I have to drove my sister and her super cute baby to the hospital for a medical check-up. Twenty minutes later, while i was busy playing scrabble here at the office my Ate suddenly texted me, "where at the wrong hospital, we need to go Alabang where the hospital/clinic is!". Being an obedient brother i hurriedly asked permission from my boss if I can fetched my sister and bring her to Alabang. Luckily my boss is in a good mood today so he approved my request and I hurriedly went to the place to pick up my sister.

Well, for all those who knew me, I'm still a terrible driver after 5 months of driving and as much as possible I avoid Alabang interchange because of its notorious traffic and "kotong" cops! But hey, since its for my sister naman and for her super cute baby, i'll take the risk.

So of we go to Alabang, the small hospital/clinic is located in Cupang (where the road is so small and the tricyle driver are the king of the road!) and another luck strikes me, they had parking space! After we've parked and bring down the baby stuff the receptionist told my already irritated sister that the Pedia were looking for doesn't worked there anymore!

My sister's reaction is like she's saying *WTF*. Hehehehe. (Being impatient is in the genes of our family, thanks to our dear tatay!).

So, after we've talked to the lovely receptionist she informed us that this Pedia doc is now based in Las Pinas but unfortunately she doesn't know the exact location of the place. All she know is that it's in Pilar. So ok, i said, "kami nalang maghahanap sa clinic besides its along the road naman".

Again back to Alabang interchange the traffic flow is crazy, i didn't know where to turn or make u-turn just to get back to the other side of the road. Buti nalang i just follow the jeepney plying on that route. Hay, thank god, im in the right road na =D.

The drive going to the third clinic (now i know it's just a clinic because there's no major hospital along AZ road besides PH), was slow, because we checked every available signboard located on the street, baka kasi lumagpas kami. So when we approached Pilar we saw this signboard saying the clinic is here, but the problem is there's no parking space! What i did was i've parked in front of a Philcopy center/store/i-dont-know-what-are-they to check the clinic. BUT, after i've closed the door of my car this security guard immediately informed me that we cannot parked on their territory! I told him i was just about to check the clinic but he still keep on telling me (by shouting!) that we're on the wrong place. What irrirated me is that he keep on talking to me in a very loud voice (that almost everyone in the parking lot can hear), and since i didn't study in an engineering school for five years and spent 2 years in Iran as a succesful engineer to be shouted by an security guard, i shouted at him as well. (Luckily my sister was inside the car so she didn't heard me shouting at this guy). By the way, the place where the signboard was located was the OLD building the clinic used to occupy, and now they moved in the other side of the building, next to Philcopy.

So, i did saw the clinic, it was besides their building, after the shouting incident i drove to the other side of the building and to the clinic. This time it was the correct address, the prescription paper of the Pedia was already very very very old and already superseeded. Luckily the Pedia wasn't in the clinic at the time we arrive or else she will receive a tounge lashing, verbal humiliation from me.

And I thought my morning mis-adventure was over. Hindi pa pala. When I was leaving the parking lot, a small car parked at my back totally preventing me to make a turn. I tried to make a turn but to no avail, i will hit him directly. So what I did was i stepped down the car asked this gentleman nicely if he can move a little so i can turn back, since im a new driver i dont want his car to be hit by my brand new car, and i don't want to visit my insurance office. But what i've heard from him was this: "KAHIT NA IUSOG KO ANG KOTSE KO HINDI KAPARIN MAKAKALABAS".

Whoah! Is this a shouting day or what???

Then, it hit me, i can do two things:

1. Ask the driver how can i move my car by not hitting him or the rest of the parked car in the building so i can go to the main road.

or

2. Engage him in a shouting match, nowithstanding that he has his 2 year old son in the fron seat and playing a car toy, you're parked at my back dude which is supposedly a NO PARKING AREA! Duh!

Possibly, with the intercession of something i choose the first one. I asked him how can I do that and he simply explained to me what should I do (but i can still smell the sarcasm when he's telling me that). So, i did what he told me and viola! I made it outside the parking lot and off to our dear cute office.

Lesson learned:

1. When you're in a intense situation pray for guidance and patience. For sure you'll be enlighten and the "init ng ulo" will go away. I never did that on the Security guard that's why we ended up in a shouting debate. Hehehehe

2. Always prioritize your family, specially in times of emergency. No amount of work is worth to disregard your family.

3. As i was driving slowly on the road, it makes me appreciate the things located on the side of the road. Di ba we have this saying "Stop and smell the flowers". Since we're working on a fast paced time we tend to disregard or appreciate the small things in life, which in turn will makes us happy pala (or in due time we will need pala). I alwasys passed this area everyday and still i didn't know that a clinic exist there, sa last minute chances ko pa nalaman na meron pala yun dun.

Kulit noh?

I must admit, since i've been in TSD and ALNP i've mellowed down, BIGTIME! If I was not a member of this group and I had this encounter, probably i'll be in hospital now. Hindi pala sagot sa lahat ng gusot ang pagiging mainitin ang ulo (which i shamelessly admit i do before)
Thank you guys for making a better person in me =D.

Galing ko diba? Walang kokontra or else........

Noisy List

My post was inspired by Doc Rio's (hi doc!) recently post about cheating during exams on schools. Yesterday, our group (composed of 4 young but intelligent inidividuals) got reprimanded from our manager. Yes, if im no mistaken it was the first time we, as a whole, got reprimanded for doing something. As our boss was telling us about it many thoughts come into my mind why we're being reprimanded, like:

1. Excessive use of Internet during office hours (hell, the whole company is doing it naman!).
2. Going downstairs 3 minutes before the bell ring at 5:oo pm.
3. Not doing our job well.
4. Late submission of documents.

But guess what's the real reason pala, we we're NOISY pala in our place kaya kami pinagagalitan!

Nyak! Noisy! C'mon, para naman tayong elementary students dito. I know we need to keep our voice down here at the office but to be totally silenced us during office hours (i.e. to keep quite all the time) aba teka mahirap ata yun =(.

I admit we're noisy sometimes, it's because our group love to talk and laugh. It's our time to catch up on what's happening in our life, we love to talked about our office life, and sometimes give advice to each other pag may problema. It only shows that we care to each other, para kaming family ika nga. At least we're developing camaraderie here at our group, and it's agood sign simply because if we like the company of each other we can work harmoniously (parang mali spelling ko dito ah!) and our output would be in excellent and perfect form.

We're not robot, we're humans. We talk, We care, We laugh.

being noisy doesn't make us lesser engineers, in fact it made us better human.

New week, New look

It's the start of the week again and by this I started also to do new things for the week like:

1. Start using my BF Homes sticker to get to work.
2. Change the template of my blog site.
3. Wake up late to go to work (coz i have easy access now to work, thanks to my sticker!).
4. Clean the car (I'll promise im gonna clean it later tonight)
5. Try to shut up and do my work here at office.

I feel horrible earlier coz i just realize now that my car have a long scratch on the side. I can't remember where I got it. So now, I'll promise that I will be extra careful in driving daredevil. Mahal ata magpaayos ng car today huh!

I'll behave today promise.
