Hypocrisy

I was with my family at SS15 MC Donalds. mom decided to eat MCD.. cause it was 1pm and the price was Rm 5.95.

so we decided to go to one on the way back from church.. stop by at SS15, just besides Inti, Near to Starbucks and metropolitan college. so there, we saw kids college students trying to be cool and study in the MCD environment.

first of all.. how to study when u keep smelling food and rancid oil?
secondly, how to study with all the people walking in and out of the outlet?

anwyay... i think if you are a student and trying to study, you should head to the library.. or maybe confine urself to your room.. instead of having a drinking session at MCD and crowd the place... kononnye with the books on the table you will study.

i looked to the group infront of us.. 3 girls all have calculus books opened up right infront of them but they keep talking about music and whatnots... when there was silence, the girls are 'thinking' of their maths problem.. think so long the pen was not moving.. suddenly they decide to get a burger ,_,

the group on the left... kinda rowdy bunch of boys... they are reading some stuffs but then decided to talk about i have no idea what...

another problem is i dont get it.. parents send their kids to college for a better education.. they study in english but they converse in chinese? im not against chinese language besides the fact that i cant speak mandarin well.. infact, im somewhat ok in my chinese... with a dash of angmoh slang speaking.

but the fact is... why send your kids to such high class place like Taylors and Inti and private colleges when your kids still grow up speaking 1/2 ripen english? abit the waste of meso money...

i recall when i was in TAR college, there was a campaign to speak english.. all the staffs in the office are suppose to speak english.. needless to say, there are little progress at the counter cause the students there speak half broken english and the staff also speak half broken english.. as a result? the line in the counter gets so long that they needa scrape that campaign.

Mouse said that some chinese are so proud of their chinese that they look down on those bananas (like me) who cannot speaking like them. they said "why you chinese but dont know how to speaking chinese?"

Mouse fired back "You are malaysian rite? why your malay is worst than your english?"

i think our education system is regressing... to the point that the government have to switch teaching maths and science to malay again... fear of failing exams? kids learn faster than adults... so why the fear?

we all adpoted the kiasu attitude from Singapore... thats why the government screw up our education system.. now they wanna make it single vernacular... just cant they stop screwing up?

im not going to say my english is so damm perfect i should get a medal... but at least i am trying to get my chinese workable too... i dont see those chinese speaking people trying to speak english?

well.. maybe cause im so sepet i cant see them trying?

sometimes it sucks if you talk to someone who cannot converse properly with you in english... sometimes i feel people thinks the same thing to me when they speak chinese to me...

at least TehFly is trying rite?

work makes u go all nuts.... my chinese is improving.. says Mr. Huang... =)

we are all born to be hypocrite...

i have no idea what am i spamming about today >_<

the person i forgot wad name introduced himself. he is indian i think (by the sound of him) and he was apologizing about the complaint. and i went on and on talking about customer service, how go improve, and the attitude of the people.

He was kind enough to say "we can give you a voucher on monday" then i said "its not about the voucher, its a service you giving to the people"

in the end "i would like to call you on monday and arrange some free pizza to come over your place on monday or tuesday during lunch time"

This dude was nice. he sounded apologetic, i dunno how i sound like when i just woke up. @_@ i told him a lecture that my HOD told me. How one's attitude at work can affect other people. i told him working shouldnt be like a robot, and he should know how to work efficiently to serve the food. i told him work not for the sake of work but its to make sure ppl get their food.

i told him what ah wei told me" the pizza is like kayu" and he agreed with me O_o

maybe cause it was 11am and he woke me up, my engine havent kickstart so i talk so soft and in good words.

best part is i said" im not sure if this is your first complaint but it definately is not the first time i receive a late delivery" and he said "yes we have received complaints before about this matter"

FINALLY!! if they have received complaints about this matter... i hope they can seriously improve on their delivery service.

lastly, thanks to him, im awake tying this.

Hope he calls me on monday /tuesday for free pizza.

Nagging the right way

Im an avid fan of Dominos Pizza... infact, when they launched their NY crust, i so love it, i will recommend it to everyone. >_<

so today, if u guys got read my FB, i posted a note, about the similar event, Pizza....

I was asked to get some lunch for some of the visitors at work today and Dominos cannot deliver to my office cause its 'out of their boundary' so.. maybe i might petition them to include my office as their boundary. >_<

click to expand / collapse to my complaint letter

I ordered 2 large pizzas and 1 garden salad to be sent to my company around 11.45am via the hotline number. I was told that the pizza will arrive at 12.30noon. At 12.45pm when my pizza had not arrived yet, I called the hotline to check on my order and the lady told me the delivery boy have left the outlet at 12noon. When I ask for clarification, the lady told me that the branch manager will contact me.

Eventually, the brand manager contacted me and told me that there was some problem with the outlet and the delivery boy just left the outlet and he was carrying two delivery. That was at 1pm. I waited for another 15 minutes before the boy arrived at my place. when asking the boy why he was late, his excuse was that he were to deliver at 2 separate location.

However, the 1st delivery took a long time as he could not find the address and wind up on a wild goose hunt. He mentioned that he tried calling them but there were no reply. In the end, I were at the losing end. I asked for compensation and was told to get the RM 5 off voucher. However he did not give us any voucher to compensate. It was totally not professional for the branch manager to give a white lie that there is some hold up at the outlet rather to tell us the fact that the driver got lost while delivering another order.

I am sure that the outlet manager would have contacted the delivery boy for some clarification on the matter. It was regrettable that the pizza came cold and soggy from the vapor. I could not imagine what our clients were thinking when we served them half soaked pizza. The delivery boy should have know how to manage time, if he cannot locate the location of the 1st delivery he should have move on to the next delivery and then re-contact them.

I can dare to say that I would not have been embarrassed if I ordered via Dominos' Pizza, your rival company."

Regards,
TehFly

Regrettably, it has some typo and wrong usage of words >_<

i am hoping to get a reply from them but somehow i feel i wont get a reply from them. or maybe they will call me? i dunno...

anyway, wont be calling pizzahut to deliver for me adi.... Dominos is the way to go!

im getting better at complaining and writing complaint letters ._.

Aching back, dizzy head, fierce mind...

Lately there has been so much going on that i need to adjust to.

All my players on Fantasy Football is not performing as it should! I have 0 chelsea player on my list and suddenly chelsea go on a scoring streak ~_~||

I also started to read this new manga called Tgeami Bachi. Its a very interesting piece of work. introduced to me by Diregirl. seems that there is a anime adaptation to it too... havent looked into it yet though.

I was given a new assignment at work and its very interesting =p

I was asked to look into colours. Natural colours to be exact and i stumbled onto something called Cochineal, Carmine, Carminic acid (E120)
click to expand / collapse to read on Cochineal

According to the source i was looking into, Cochineal is a type of colour obtained from insects... yes... they are NATURAL colours from the INSECT itself.


Yea.. u see those not so cute red stuff on the cactus... thats the Cochineal insect!

how did they do it?

to sum up the website i read, first they harvest the insects... dry it and pound it! YES THEY POUND THAT INSECT into tiny bits they call POWDER! now they sell them to everyone who needs this colour. @_@

Last time, they use this colour in clothes dye etc.. now its in food! eeewwwwwuuuuuuu.. but yea.. lol... so better watch out what kinda colour is in ur food! especially those preserved fruits... @_@ the colour is so godly that u dunno what insect u are eating @_@

Just for your info, you can actually know whether they are using this Cochineal colour just by reading the ingredients list. it should be declared what colour they are using in food... well... their international code is E120. so please.. if you dont mind eating insects, go ahead.. but if you really grossed out like i am, stay away from this colour code E120.
