Eksena Uno
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.

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.

Gawad Kalinga Gig (Build a Home, Build a Muscle)

Our cute little office here in Alabang recently team-up with Gawad Kalinga Las Pinas to build homes. We've pledge to build 30 houses in 3 years and the village will named after our company (conceited di ba?) Eversince i've heard the news about it thru Ate Evelyn I was so excited I nominate myself to become our department's representative! Well, ganun nga nangyari, I was assigned as coordinator and core leader of this group, even landing me the rights to be the assistant leader of the powerful food committee hahahaha!

Finally, last weekend, it was our department's schedule to build the home. The day starts very very early at 8:00AM! Again, me being a non-avid fan of early-morning-wakeup-pag-weekend have to drag myself to the bathroom at 6:30. After eating my breakfast and driving my sister to her house in Sucat little did I ralize i was sooo late! 8:30 na pala and here I am, the leader of the group still in Alabang. LOL. Di bale they can't leave without me. =P. Supringsily I was not that late, mas mas late pa pala =D.

So, we all go to the construction site, all in happy faces and very eager to help and to work. After we arrive at site and made some short briefing, introduction, teaming-up, etc. we start our work at 9:00.

Our group did a lot of work in fairness, merong taga halo ng semento, taga bitbit ng hollow blocks, nagpipintura, assistant ni foreman, taga pahid ng pawis, etc. It was hard but hey we had FUN FUN FUN! After 2 hours we had our recess break of ginataan (kulit noh, mainit na nga panahon and here we are eating ginataan!), then after eating work ulit!

After half a day's work, 2 recess break, 1 plastic gallon of mineral water, 6 bottles of POP cola, 2 liters of paint, 10 bags of sand, 2 bags of cement our work is done. Everybody was exhausted but i can see in their face (except for the emo guy) the emotional gratification of finally doing something for others. Sabi nila they we're so happy to be a part of Gawad Kalinga, and kung may chance pa ulit in the future for them to join sasama ulit sila.

Then it strucks me. Ang pagtulong ay dapat bukas sa puso hindi sapilitan sapagkat sa bukas na kalooban mararanasan ang tunay na kaligayahan.

(yikes, ang lalim nun!)

Ang sarap talagang maging bata, di ba? =D.

Demanding

While I was driving earlier on my way to work I was listening to maxfm 103.5 and their topic caught my attention. They we're discussing about "rock stars/singers demands before doing a concert", and they inform that:

a. jennifer lopez wants white flowers, white linen sheets, coffee to be stirred COUNTERCLOCKWISE

b. marilyn manson demands a bald hooker without teeth before he starts his concert (yuck!)

c. madonna wants weights, massage, luxurious pampering and a phone call from her kids before she hit the stage.

according to the dj's, these singers actually demand this outrageous whims to test how far can their producer go to satisfy them. most concert artist's alibi is that we're here to entertain you guys, giving you all our best talent, in short "mahihirapan kami dito tapos kayo naman kikita, swerte nio naman' (this is the artist telling the producers of the show).

while pondering on this thought (re:being demanding), i remember the chat i had last friday with Fr. JV of San Agustin parish here in Pque. He told me that the priest's living condition now is not so good, they live on the second floor of the church wherein they slept on wooden floors and they don't have much on their place. I know some people might think its ok for them to live in that way pero at least naman sana they have a comfortable living space sana =(. they are requesting daw their officials for a better living condition but knowing their parish na salat din sa pera their reqiest will automatically shot down.

this thoughts leads me into this: why is't we can't provide our priest, who serves us and make us more closer to god, a better living condition. after all our priest help us to live an eternal life in heaven. hindi ba malaking utang ng loob natin sa mga pari kapag naisalba tayo mula sa tiyak na kapahamakan ng impierno (uh-oh, i sound preachy na dito ah!) pag namatay tayo? kaya hindi na ako nagtataka why some parish priest end up being corrupt, coz the people who are suppose to take care of them didn't do anything to help them!

it really saddens me when i hear fr. jv's story last week, and it cross to my mind as well kung sila fr. jv are having a hard time here in metro manila what more are the parishes in the province..let's say sa mountanous region of benguet or sa southern leyte????

well, siguro it's already included in their duty being a priest to live in a modest life. i just hope they can cope up with their way of life, free from harm and sickness. for you father jv, i admire you're courage and strength, may god continue to bless you and your parish as well.

AMEN.

p.s.
to father jv: i enjoy your talked last friday at our PM. you're one of the best speakers that i've heard. also i enjoy our conversation and the jokes you shared when we're in the car going home. super saya! i never expect this to a 34 y/old father.

i hope we can meet again father!
