once upon a time, a shoe manufacturer sent his sales representative to saudi arabia to do market research on the shoe's market there.

Since no one wear shoes in saudi arabia, the sales representative came back to tell the shoe manufacturer: "i don't think there is a market for shoes there. no one wear shoes.

not wanting to believe the sales representative, the shoe manufacturer send his newly hired sales man down.

the new sales man return, feeling very excited. he told the shoe manufacturer "No one wear shoes in saudi arabia! can sell your shoes like hotcakes there!!!!!"




which salesman person do you think you are?







im training myself to be the new sales man :)

think positive, but in a realistic way.



im still getting use to my 'no-life' life.

im expected to work till 10pm (earliest) 24/7


im sorry to friends whom i have to turn down dates on.
i'll try to better manage my time.





but currently, im feeling really exhausted. i need more rest. and hope i can get use to this kind of lifestyle soon :)

good nights.

besides telemarketing,

i haven't been talking to anyone since wednesday.

even though i'm in a big class with some familiar faces, i just smile at them to acknowledge their greetings.

even though im eating in a group at the same table, i just keep quiet and eat my food while the rest are chatting while eating.

i ate my dinner alone for the past 3 days.
i do things alone.
i studied alone.
i go home alone.
i shopped alone.

whatever u can think of, i do it alone.





it feels as if i'm facing everything alone.




i never felt so 'alone' before. it felt so pitiful for being alone.








i cleared the 2 most difficult paper, but i failed my last paper which is supposedly to be the easiest.


i'm stupid.



my heart ached for the $105 that i have to fork out for the exam.


FUCK.

just leave me alone.

Sometimes it feels no one understands
I don't even know why I do the things I do
When pride builds me up till I can't see my soul
Will you break down these walls and pull me through












....


i'm another step closer to my license.

i hate MCQ.

i hate dilemma.

i hate having to think and to think, yet not getting any perfect answers.

i hate pretending.

i hate arguments.

i hate embarrassment.

i hate people taking up too much of my pride.



i hate myself for accepting all these listed above.

i feel excited about my career, about the different people that im going to meet, about the process of really chionging for your $$.


at the same time, i start doubting myself if i can really adapt to this busy lifestyle. no much time left for friends, family and myself, except for the random pple on streets.

As displayed at the right hand side of this page,
theres this day-counter, counting how many days im in a relationship.

Since im not as busy as how i used to be, i didn't really realise how fast time flies nowadays.
The last time i saw the counter, it was like day #1196.
But today i look at it again, it become 1211days! shows how much i've not been visiting this page of mine.

anyway, today is finally my last day at global security asia.
called some clients over at Switzerland, UK, Australia and Germany.
and all i can conclude is that they sound so much happier than Singaporeans.
They pitch the call well, you can really feel the sincerity when talking to them. Even though they are busy to assist me, they are still very polite!
I'm really impressed, and felt shameful for singaporeans' phone ettique.

For example, on a monday morning, I called this company, requiring some assistance from the operator.

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT THE OPERATOR TOLD ME?

"TSK, i'm busy at the moment." in a very irritated tone.
and i proceed on to apologise for taking up her time, and you know what happen next?

SHE BLOODY HELL HANG UP THE FUCKING DAMN INNOCENT PHONE WHILE I HAVE YET TO FINISH MY SENTENCE.

fuck.

of all days, she chose to do this to me on a MONDAY morning.

i decided this is not the way im gonna let the matter rest. so i decided to write an email to the company.

Hi, I called in at around 10.15am on 1st of june 2009 requiring some assistance from the operator. However, the rude operator told me she is busy, and hang up the phone abruptly when I have not even finished up my sentence.

What kind of attitude or customer service is this?! If she is the operator, she should possess a better attitude towards those who called in. Even of she is not willing to help, she can reject the call in a polite and subtle manner, instead of hanging up abruptly.

I hope whoever receives this mail can attend to this matter, as it left a very bad impression on me. If she is not happy to be the operator, I suggest you get another person to do it as her attitude problem will somehow affect the image of your company.

Perhaps you should send her to attend some phone ettique course to upgrade herself. Just one helpful suggestion from a very angry customer's point of view, which I think you should consider.

Thank you.



The moment i clicked "send" i felt so much better instantly.


A while later, i received a reply:

Dear Ms Lim,

Thank you for your feedback, your email is receiving attention.

Can we have your contact number?



Best Regards,

Angie Ong

Hi,

Really appreciate that this matter has been attended to promptly. However, I feel that there is no need to provide my contact number as my intention is to bring the poor customer service attitude to your attention. You can contact me via my email address which I check regularly.

Thank you.

Regards,
Samantha




I dunno what will happen to the rude operator, but i just dont care anymore.
