Waiting......

I am, at this very moment, waiting to talk to a customer representative on the phone. I waited about fifteen minutes to get one, only that he wasn't much of a talker, and couldn't help me much. So he said he'll pass the call to someone who can help me.

Here I am still waiting after ten minutes, managed to eat a banana, enjoying my achar, and listening to their Beethoven. Therapeutical. I guess so customers like me won't scream in their ears. So why am I being so patient? Coz it's money!! And I am talking about hundreds. Cekik leher I still have to hang on.

While I am still on phone calls, I received one telemarketing call yesterday.

Good evening mam, I am calling from s0-and-so, how are you today?

Good thanks. Where are you calling from again?

So-and-s0 (see lar, I didn't even bother listening properly). The reason I am calling today is to tell you the great news that you have won a 7 days trip to Gold Coast costing you only $149.00 which you can use it anytime within two years.

Oh, thanks, but I am not intesrested.

Waaahhh...... you can actually her her gasping on the other side of the phone. I guess she was thinking what kind of moron I am for not accepting such an offer.

B..but mam, it's only $149 and you can use it within two years. Don't you want a holiday?

Yes, I do, in fact, I am having one next month. So I don't need this, thank you.

But you don't have to use this now...

I understand, but I am not interested. Thank you. (Which part of NOT INTERESTED do you NOT understand?!) And I put down the phone. She must be a newby, and was in shock. Kakakakaa!!

I had one before, never got around using it, and gave it to a friend. Then again, there are so many extras I have to consider. Tak mau lah! Where got so big 'kap laah' jumping everywhere on the street?

By the way, the call got through earlier, hehe. All settled. Worth waiting :)
