Seriously, some telephone operators really have attitude problems. When I went to call up bowling centres just now for UGBC, some bowling centres (shall not name here) really have no service standard. Where did all that talk about Singapore's service standard go to? Here's a good example. The conversation went something like this.
Me: Hello. I will like to enquire whether there are any booking on the 4th of june.
TO (telephone operator) : 4th of june ar. Let me check.
After some time...
TO: You can bring 200 people here. No problem.
Me: Huh?
TO: (laughs) What time you want?
Me: Morning to afternoon
TO: What time lah? 1130 is morning, so is 11, 1030, 10, 0930 and 9.
Me: Erm. I just want to know whether there are any booking made already.
TO: You call me up then tell me cannot confirm time. What organisation you from?
Me: Uh-huh...
TO: You needa tell me cos I got something on for that afternoon.
Me: Oh. Something on for that afternoon?
TO: Ya.
Me: Then never mind. Bye.
I know it sounds lame here. But I feel like bashing that guy up! Zzz...
Let's change topic. Recently, there are quite a number of newspaper reports on the scraping of the TAF programme in schools from next year onwards. For me, I personally believe that the TAF programme is extremely useful. And yes, I won't mind admitting that I was in the TAF programme. Happy? Anyway, without it, I won't be the wen wei I am today now. U guys should probably see my P6 photo. I won't post here cos of the obvious reason. That's why a lot of my primary school friends said I changed a lot and they find it hard to recognise me. Hah.
Ok. There was something else I wanna blog about. But I kinda forgot. Bad memory. Shall end here then.
