Some of you might have already seen me mentioning this on the new feature of my blog, my Twitter. I said that the HP customer service wasn't that fantastic as I was told. Last week, I went to collect my laptop back from the customer service centre and it turned out that my thoughts were accurate.
The customer service was below mediocre frankly. I didn’t feel any friendly staffs at all.
They were all seemingly unhappy staffs, except during the moment when they were chatting among themselves.
When I arrived at the information counter at the entrance, I was asked for my purpose of visit in a rather stern tone. Then, after she passed me the relevant queue ticket, I asked about a ‘trade up offer’ advertisement on a poster that was hung next to the counter. Astonishingly, she told me to ask the customer service officer when it was my turn.
When it was my turn, the officer took my receipt and when to fetch my laptop. After a while he came back and looked at the service report and told me what was basically written there.
I visited the service center because the speakers in my laptop had packed up. Therefore I was quite puzzled when he told me that the technician had replaced the LCD panel in my laptop instead. So I asked, he stared at the paper and then gave me some muffled random shit which bear no relation to my question.
I asked if I can try the laptop to make sure that the speakers are working after they replace the LCD panel ironically. He then told me to try at the waiting area instead of at his counter.
Finally when I asked about the trade in advertisement, he merely passed me a piece of paper, which I had to prompt him to give me after listening to some very vague answers again.
I had to say, the staffs were PATHETIC. The only thing they can do is to take the items, pass to the technician and then return it to the customer without proper interaction skills or basic product knowledge or system of answering to customers.
HP should stands for How Pathetic!
I was having dinner at Swenson's the other day. One of the fries on my plate was pretty unusual.
Now firstly, i apologize for the picture quality.
If you look at that fries, there is a potato stalk and one of it's ends. I don't know about you guys but I have never seen this before. If there was, i thought the chef would remove it or something. But plainly, the Swenson's chef just want to leave me some amusement.
My Horoscope for today:
"Experiences you might never have expected could come your way today, dear Scorpio. A talent that you didn't know you possessed could come to light. This could involve the combination of arts and technology, such as graphic arts or animation, or it might involve spiritual or humanitarian work of some kind. You might also try your hand at fundraising for a charity or for a social or political cause. Don't hesitate - go to it!"
How accurate are these things. Sometimes I really wonder.
I went to HP customer service center the last week and had to pass through this tunnel which is rather interesting.
It feels as if i am walking through the belly of a worm. Only that it is dry.

Friday the 13th November was quite a havoc night. It was JS's birthday and we were supposed to be celebrating it. The plan was to meet at Wala Holland Village. However that place screws, so we have to switch to another venue. They had chosen Villa Bali, the place where most people lost their heads shortly afterwards..
There was a light but insignificant drizzle. We arrived and many started ordering expensive boozes. All hard liquor. If I am honest, that was not what i had in mind. i thought they were just going to order some beer and light snacks but i was wrong. Anyway I am rather tight on cash, so I decided to forgo the luxury of splurging on liquid that were pointless, overpriced and awful. Immediately after the booze arrived, they got straight into the business of terrorizing JS, the birthday boy. They got him to drink at first, followed by waxing him and tearing off his chest hair and some other areas. After that was bottoms up in many rounds.
Soon, delirium filled many who drank. Things started to get obvious…
They say when I person is half sober, they are more transparent. Their theory can be verified yesterday. There were many scenes. Some where really unexpected. That was where I saw the blemishes within. JS’s limelight diminished. The rest of the night was about individuality. That brought about some questions; were they here to truly just to celebrate the birthday or were there other things on their mind.
Apart from those who drank, the sober ones did some things unexpected as well. Which made it even more appalling. However for someone who is long dishearten in humanity, all these are redundant and unimportant. The perdure though is fuzzy and profound to elucidate.
Thursday, 25th October, 4th date. Our progress halted. I couldn’t do anything to bring us to the next level.
I was thinking what was wrong. What did I not do to improve. I was still on the cough medication and that made me drowsy but I didn’t want to put the blame there.
I kept thinking I wasn’t good enough for her. Maybe that’s my limit, maybe I am unsuitable for her. Maybe that’s it. My body was still aching. There were so many distractions. The thought of giving up was consuming all the my determination.
Just as I was thinking of throwing in the towel, my mentor visited and gave one advice. Naturally I couldn’t wait to try. And you know what?
It worked.
The piece of simple and yet I didn’t think of advice, brought us forward with more stability and ambidextrously. I was delighted.
You might already noticed that there is a Twitter on the right column of my blog. It is actually a new thing that I am trying out. Well I know the renowned Singapore blogger xiaxue has that as well in her blog. But I think it is really a good idea for blogs because essentially, your blog should be your freedom of having anything you want and people read them to see the things you find worth blogging about.
Twittering in your blog get readers to connect to you closer via your blog. It can be updated by just sending a text message via your mobile phone. So if I am shitting in the toilet without anything to read, I can tweet as well.
The only problem right now is mine doesn't seemed to be working yet. The posts are still some rubbish from I don't know who. Give me some time to get it to work okay.
Halloween was fun this year. Not really much on the ghost stuffs but rather the company. We had camwhoring and stay-over. And here is a little Trailer for promoting an upcoming video footage for that fun-filled day.
Thought i share it over here..
Sadly though, the actual film will not be publish here in my blog and it would be exclusive to some of my friends only in facebook as well. This is for privacy purpose. However if you belong to that group, then you need not worry because you will get notifications from me for the link to it. Enjoy!
