Dance like no one's watching

I met a Nigerian Australian scammer today, whose plot was so paper thin, I felt it was real insult to my intelligence.  So this old man turns up without appointment at my office and said he was looking for an insurance bond.  Our receptionist sent a management trainee from our Business Development team to speak […]

I understand that different people will have different beliefs and will therefore vote for different parties.  What upsets me is when people tell me things like they want to vote for the opposition ‘cos of “gut feel”.  When asked what don’t they like about the incumbent, they say they don’t know, have not read up, […]

I think drivers in Singapore are car snobs.  Whenever I drive the Kia Rio, I get harassed, tailgated, etc.  When I drive my dad’s Passat R36, however, no one bothers me.  If I signal to change lanes, I don’t get cars speeding up to block me.  What’s with that man!  I’m still me you know?  […]

I just got a call from Fetsi who introduced herself as a supervisor with Nokia Care. Fetsi: Hi Miss.  I received your e-mail regarding the Channel News Asia app.  I understand that we have advised you 2 possible fixes, i.e. to wait for the next available software update or to download the app from Ovi […]

This must be the best Taiji move I’ve seen coming from a technical support centre.  Can’t solve it – delay it.  Check out their latest reply to my issue. ====================== Ref#1-11411140618 Thank you for emailing Nokia Careline. Since the application you are referring to is pre-installed, we suggest that you try to wait for the […]

The Nokia Customer Care in Singapore really really sucks.   I think it would be a challenge to find another helpdesk more lacking and inadequate.  I asked @NokiaSg on Twitter who should I send a complaint letter to.  They requested that I told them my problem over e-mail.  Fine.  So I did.  I sent an e-mail […]

Had a Christmas lunch with Booze Queen and Azure just now.  We went to PS Cafe at Ann Siang Hill Park.  Really fantastic place.  I’m super full now!  Heh.   Here’s a pic of my iced mocha in Sepia tones.  Nice retro looking pic.  😀     I had the caesar salad with blackened salmon.  […]

Singtel is really really giving me a lot of grief.  I would’ve switched to another telco immediately, save for the fact the Nokia N8 that I want is currently only being sold by Singtel.  Argh.  Anyway, I sent an e-mail to Mr Allen Lew of Singtel.  My e-mail is reproduced below.  I hope Singtel can […]

I’ve been very upset lately, enough to even resign from my job if push comes to shove. The person causing my grief is Xiaowang. Xiaowang is a self-proclaimed regional expert in 1 of the product lines i handle. I am suspicious of his character and the fact that he was fired by his previous company […]

I’ve thought about it. I’ve tolerated Xiao Wang long enough cos I didn’t want to 撕破脸 and make it hard to cooperate on deals in future. But enough is enough. If he dares insult my wording or bad mouth my bosses 1 more time, I’m raising a complaint all the way to the top. He […]
