Discovered a nice place with Couz x2
Went to a place called Plus 8.
The food is not bad, very reasonable price & crazily relaxing environment.
The design is unique, just simple & sweet.
When you walk in there, there's an oriental style of air conditioned space for Chinese food.
The rest is open air. Walking down the stairs, there's a bar, & further in which is also the underneath of the band stage where professionals singing jazz, is an secluded place for those who just want to have a pleasurable time to drink with peeps.
It's pretty cosy there, we both didn't want to leave.
Decided we would definitely come here frequently. :p
Couz said she would bring her friends here for alcohol. Ha~
Yea, it's an ideal place too.
There were old peeps dancing jazz & chacha there. How adorable & lively of them.
The boss said there's a discount session every day including weekend, from 11am to 5 pm, 40% on everything. Food & drinks! That is a plus point, aite?
Just googled it up & found out they have a website!
Here: Plus 8 Cafe & Club
Okay now, to share some updates of my recent activities.
Still working for the airline outsource.
Supposedly the 1st was my last day.
But they asked me to stay for 2 more days.
& supposedly I would start working in my new place on the 5th.
But since they're closing for Hari Raya, I was asked to start serving there on 20th.
So, having nothing to do for 2 weeks, I extended my stay to the 14th or 15th, depending on my mood.
& I'm still amazed every single day by how idiotic these people could get.
Who should I blame it for??? For their stupidity?
Pax: As you could see here, my flight is 24th sep flying from Penang to S'pore & 28th coming back. Now, I want to change my outbound sector to 25th. Then, can I still come back on the 28th arrrr?
Me: Huh? What do you mean? You want to change your outbound flight date, right? So, you're changing it with us Jetstar or you're flying with another airline?
Pax: No, I'm flying with you guys.
Me: Errr, then why wouldn't you be able to come back on 28th?
Pax: Because I scared if I don't fly on the original date I booked, I can't come back on 28th.
Me: (sweat) Errrr, you already paid & booked the ticket. Why can't you come back on the date that you booked?
Pax: Oh, so, if I change my date also nevermind lar? I'll still be able to fly back on the date I booked lar?
Me: Yeeeaaaaaa.
Pax: Oh okay okay.
Me: (after hanging up) %$&#$%&%%&*!@$*#@^*$!!!!
Me: If you want to change your flight date to "this" "this" "this", this is the amount that you need to pay.
Pax: Oh okay, so how do I pay it?
Me: You pay now, with me. Using your credit card, over the phone.
Pax: Huh? I can't go to the airport and pay ar?
Me: No, you have to confirm the payment in order to get the flight you want.
Pax's mother took over the phone: Cannot go to the airport and pay ar?
Me: Cannot, have to pay now.
Pax's mother: Cannot hold the ticket for me, then I go to airport to pay ar?
Me: Cannot. I can't do that.
Pax's mother: Oh, cannot lar?
Me: *fed up in silence*
Pax's mother: Huh? Hello?
Me: Yes?
Pax's mother: Cannot pay at airport lar?
Me: YES.
Pax took over the phone: But my grandfather died, that's why I needed to change the flight to a later date. I tried to fax in the death cert but couldn't get through your fax.
Me: I gave you the right number. Maybe the fax was just too busy. You try again later kay?
Pax: But my flight is tonight.
Me: I told your mother earlier when she called. We do not set time limit for compassionate policy. You can take your time to fax in, even after your flight has taken off.
Pax: So, you won't forfeit my flight lar?
Me: NO.
Pax: But I tried to fax in already.
Me: But I didn't receive.
Pax: But I really tried to fax in already.
Me: Yea, but we didn't receive arrr! Whether you tried or not doesn't make any difference.
Pax: So, I can't change my flight already & fly another date?
Me: No, it's too late. Your flight is tonight.
Pax: You can't change for me & I go pay at the airport?
Me: No, I've told your mum that already too!
Pax: Okay lar, then I'll try to fax in again.
Me: (after hanging up) #&$%^!*$*@$^@@!!$!!!#@#!#$$(%^(!!!
Pax: Hello, I want to know if my flight has been delayed.
Me: Okay.
Pax: *silence*
Me: (Oh, I get it. Another idiot who thinks I know who she is) WHICH FLIGHT? (You moron)
Pax: Penang to S'pore. *silence*
Me: (My goodness!!!) WHICH DATE?
Pax: Flight date ar??? You wait ar....erm..
I don't know oh. Can you help me check ar?
Me: You don't even know what date you're flying, how am I supposed to check for you?!!!
Pax: Oh, like that cannot check lar?
Me: YEA.
Pax: Oh, then nevermind lar~
Pax: Hello, I want to book a flight from S'pore to Shantou. Find for me the cheapest one.
Me: Which date do you want to fly?
Pax: Anytime lar, as long as it's the cheapest.
Me: *looking at the calendar* If you don't tell me at least which month you want to fly, how am I supposed to check for you?
Pax: Erm, then October or November lor.
Me: *tell the price for the whole month*
Pax: Oh okay, the price for the 25th, how much again ar?
Me: *quote price*
Pax: Oh, okay okay.
After 15 minutes, call back.
Pax: Erm, just now you said the *date* *date* is how much again ar?
Me: *quote price* Why don't you just go check online? Everything is clearly stated there.
Instead of me telling you here & you're not writing the prices down & you
don't remember at all, wasting our time.
Pax: I don't know how to use PC. All my children are out for work.
Me: Then wait for your children to come back tonight lor.
Pax: Then it'll be too late already.
Me: *strangle myself*
This is how interesting my everyday life is.
They are the reminders that I would never ask stupid questions when I call up customer service & I would try my best to stay smart & clear cut.
Thank you, God for giving me an active brain.
Top scorers for killing my cells everyday:
Gold: S'poreans
Silver: M'sians
Bronze: China
Copper: Taiwanese
Singaporeans love to repeat every single sentence you say.
Whatever information you're providing, they'll repeat after you in the whole freaking conversation.
And of course, M'sians would ask all the amazing questions.
China people are those who can't spell & pronounce English alphabets.
Internation Agent Code doesn't work for them.
You think they'll understand F for Foxtrot?
Even F for Frog is not understandable.
Only F for Flower is comprehensible.
G & J are the same for them.
It's okay. I won't get to laugh at them after this.
So, chill.
Brother came last Friday for visit & holiday.
Broke I almost was! Because of you.
You owe me one.
Spent National Day working. That was depressing.
Heard some Chinese guys being beaten up by Malay teenagers on Merdeka eve for no reason. Yea, of course.
Nights. Helllooooo, Friday Night!
