Reading Angels & Demons

0 comments


My mom actually bought the book last 2007 but I decided to just read it over the weekend.

I wanted to read the book first before watching the movie since generally, movies made that came from books or novels are a rip-off from the original material due to film constraints or for just any other reason.

Heck, I even saw a fanpage of the "Angels & Demons" book (and film!) over Facebook! Yay!

Photo above is the actual book cover of the one my mom bought.

Shih Tzu

That's my pet Shih Tzu on Facebook's Pet Society. Actually, that image was taken on the first day I signed-up for Pet Society. Now, nasa 1,300 na points ko. Medyo mabagal 'cos I don't have all the time to surf the net naman.

I named it Shih Tzu kasi 'yun tawagan namin ni June, hehe! I am addicted to this virtual pet, parang tamagotsi lang wehehe!

A friend (the singer of the song) sent me this one before Valentines. And I am especially reserving this song for today since it is Agent J's & I tenth month-sary together.

Mahal, no matter what I will always love you. I am glad our paths crossed. This one's for you.

Two months na lang, pagtutuos na ba? LOLz

Happy 10th monthsary Shih Tzu ko!

Goodbye, Hello

1 comments


I just got off with my last call for this 3rd program. It was both a relief and a litle bit of regret. Why? I'd like to stay with the program for at least a year. The account is VERY challenging. Having to deal with customers who can't (or won't) understand their phone bills, assist them with it and make necessary AND appropriate adjustments which, sad to say is about 10% of our scorecard. Most of my adjustments resulted from incorrect and misapplied plan codes and discounts.

I am relieved because like I mentioned the program is challenging so it requires a lot of patience, understanding and perserverance to deliver each and every situation and every scenario possible to the customer. The old people are challenging, yes, but the most diffucult ones were the ones who can't do a simple math to calculate their bills.

Early as this year, we've heard some rumors that the client will close down some of its vendor sites here in the Philippines. Heck, I even posted a blog about outsourcing being a bit safe even with the recession. But I guess you really can't tell. By end of January, we were informed that the last call date for the program will be on March 15, 2009.

The good thing about the company I work in (which is why I really do not intend to leave) is they will try to find their employees a program in case one drops out. Yes, that's the painful part. I am in a way hurt by the client's decision to pull-out the service from our company. Well, we're not the only BPO unit they pulled-out, they also ceased their operations in other countries and other centers including the chat support. At least the Inbound & Outbound Sales queue in Alabang & Makati are still in place.

The funny part? The program that we will be switching to effective next week is a direct competitor of our account program, only it's for the phone insurance department. It is a big relief since we will not be on the billing queue anymore! Plus we will occupy the same workstations, the same floor and be with the same group of people.

Consider this scenario:

Customer: If you don't take out these charges, I will switch my services to **&*!
Agent: (presses the 'Mute' button) Sure, go ahead! We will talk to you there later!

Four Proud Dads

2 comments
I received this one on my e-mail about a year ago and would like to share this one here.

Very nice ending! And one very proud father I must say! LOLz


Four friends, who hadn't seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a party. After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room. Those who remained talked about their kids. The first guy said, "My son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at the bottom of the barrel. He studied Economics and Business Administration and soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he's the president of the company. He became so rich that he gave his best friend a top of the line Mercedes for his birthday."

The second guy said, "Darn, that's terrific! My son is also my pride and joy. He started working for a big airline, and then went to flight school to become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he owns the majority of its assets. He's so rich that he gave his best friend a brand new jet for his birthday."

The third man said: "Well, that's terrific! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer. Then he started his own construction company and is now a multimillionaire. He also gave away something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A 30,000 square foot mansion."

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned from the restroom and asked: "What are all the congratulations for?"

One of the three said: "We were talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons. What about your son?"

The fourth man replied: "My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub."

The three friends said: "What a shame... what a disappointment."

The fourth man replied: "No, I'm not ashamed. He's my son and I love him. And he hasn't done too bad either. His birthday was two weeks ago, and he received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.

Gilbey's Premium Strength & Malate

0 comments


Woah! I didn't know Gilbey's has a new product! Toinx! As if mangingimom ako? Wehehe!

Anyway, I came across with this Gilbey's Premium Strength when June and I went out last February 14 around the wee-wee hours in Malate.

Yes! It's his first time at Malate! Yehey! He was a bit uncomfortable actually, seeing a crowd with gay men of all colors..I was a bit scared for him he might back out at the last minute.

We had a hard time looking for a place to eat. We arrived at Malate past midnight of Valentine's. We peeked in at BED, but it looked crowded already so I decided to go somewhere else 'cos I'm really really hungry.

We ended up at the "Blue Room" which is a very cozy place. My friend already recommended the place before but we never had the chance to visit the place since we're hooked up at BED at that time but now it's my first time at the Blue Room with my hubby.

And yun na nga, a promo girl (who actually looked like Tuesday Vargas) offered us this new Gilbey's with green tea extracts, 7% alcohol at only PhP60. So June & I tried a bottle each. He actually grabbed a second one, while I picked SanMig Light with a free SanMig Light! That's really a treat!

The new Gilbey's tastes good actually. Reminded me of Cali. Parang pang-babae lang. Hehe!

We also took their Seafood Sampler which was superb. The calamares was a bit salty but overall it was great. June had mushroom garlic as our last "pulutan".

By 2AM, I am already dizzy. Well, the last time I went out and had a drink was November when my friend from Bahrain had her Manila vacation after 5 years. So medyo nanibago lang siguro ako. I could take at most 3 SanMig Light without getting dizzy, well, I'm not a drinker so a few bottles would do.

June & I did something wicked at The Blue Room. I asked him to keep the Gilbey's Premium Strength promo card at the table, and he did! I dunno, I guess we're both intoxicated at that time.

After Blue Room, we walked all the way till Baywalk where I slept around 30-45 minutes on his lap. What a romantic way to spend Valentines! Kulang na lang sunset! Wahaha!

Around 4:30AM, I insisted on getting back at the office to take a rest on the sleeping lounge which we did. Good thing the company and building guards didn't noticed us! We both wore red by the way.

We're planning to hit Malate sometime soon, probably on our 11th monthsary on March.
