My daughter told me my headache could be tension headache and not migraine. Could be. It persisted for a few days. Until now meron pa rin. Siguro nga. Kasi lately lagi akong inis.

Little things lang naman pero nakakainis.

1. I went down to the showroom and it was warm. The sales person in charge told me “Mam, mainit talaga”. The blinds were up even if the sun’s glares were right on their faces. No one thought of rolling the blinds down. I checked the aircon settings. Two units were off. Two units had settings on 28 and 30 degrees respectively. Then all the other aircon units had fans on LOW setting. Anak ng kalawang. Ano ba, common sense guys! Pagnaman merong bagyo, kaginaw-ginaw naman tapos nakikita ko sila mga naka sweater. “Mam, ang ginaw po”. Eh bakit hindi nyo i-adjust yung settings at patayin yung ibang aircon? Grabe, nakaka-kulubot kayo ng mukha.

2. On my way to Angono, I swung by Ford Cainta. I saw someone wearing rubber slippers. “Pwede ba dito ang naka tsinelas?” “Bawal ho”. “O eh bakit ka naka tsinelas?”

3. I was disappointed when someone in charge of the service department is missing in action on Saturdays. Saturdays are busy days so it’s best that the managers, supervisors, customer service officers and sales teams are present and ready to attend to customers. Bawal rin mag-absent ang mga janitors.

4. Kumunot ang noo ko when I saw a girl playing with Rubik’s cube while she was supposed to work on something. I subjected her to a review of her functions. I told her “mamaya ka na mag-Rubik’s cube, pag nakauwi ka na sa bahay nyo”. Wala syang gaanong ginagawa kaya siguro marami syang oras mag Rubik’s cube.

5. I went to the parts department. I caught a glimpse of what looked like a super giant spider stuck on a wall in front of a girl’s working desk. I called her superior.
A—–Ano yung gagamba na naka display dun?
Bong– “Eh boss, kay ano ho yun”.
A——-“Iuwi na lang nya. Tanggalin mo ngayon na”.
Bong —-“Nung halloween ho yun kaya lang na-carry over”.
A——–“Lumipas na ang pasko, Valentines na ngayon. Pagbalik ko wala na yan dito.
Bong—–“Yes boss, pasensya na ho”.
Tatlong guhit ng wrinkles ang nadagdag sa noo ko.

6. I made a surprise visit to the new office of HR and IT. Abah, nagpi-picnic yung dalawanag IT. Bawal kumain dun. We have two designated dining areas.

7. The security guards’ posts are dirty and nakaskas na yung mga pintura. I found Havaianas displayed on the shelf.
A—-“Kanino ito? Nagtitinda ba tayo ng tsinelas? Ibigay mo dun sa pulubi sa labas”.

I couldn’t wait for the paint contractor to come next week. I sent my aide to buy a half gallon white enamel paint and a roller brush. I showed the guard how to do it. I was lucky because he told me he knew how to paint.

Nainis ako dun sa tamad kong ____. Hindi daw sya marunong mag paint. It boggles my mind why a person would not know how to do simple painting job. Tamad lang sya. Kung padre de pamilya ka, marunong ka dapat magkumpuni ng mga gamait at magpintura ng dingding.

O, ayan oh, very easy.

8.
A—-“Paki linis lahat ng basura dyan, itapon lahat. Ang dumi-dumi”.
Guard—“Mam, asan ho yung dumi?” This validated their common comments that my standards on cleanliness is different. One of the showroom managers said, they couldn’t see the dirt that I was referring at”.

Mahirap ba itong makita?

Nung araw pag meron kang itinuturo at hindi makita, ang sasabihin ng matatanda “Kung ahas yan, tinuklaw ka na”.

9. Pati isang gwwardya napagdiskitahan ko. Pinagwalis ko rin.

10. One of the things that I hate are dirty garbage cans. You heard me right, ayaw ko ng madumi ang basurahan. Weird daw. Dahil meron ba daw basurahan na malinis? Mag-iikot ako mamaya, bukas, at sa lunes, sabunin nyo na lahat ng mga basuharan dyan sa harap nyo.

11. I am sweet and patient the first time I say things. The second time medyo inis na ako pero pigil pa rin. The third time bwisit na ako. It’s best that you don’t wait for the third time.

12. I summoned the officer in charge to my office yesterday. Hindi daw kasi sumusunod sa kanya yung iba. Medyo paiyak na.
A—-“Sigawan mo”.
“Eh nagalit na nga ako, sinabi ko huwag nyong intayin na si ACTY ang makakita nyan kundi sa basurahan nyo yan dadamputin”.
Some of them like to treat the office as if it’s their home. They scatter their slippers, shoes, jackets, combs, mirrors.
If people don’t respect company rules, kahit yung maliit na bagay lang, obviously wala silang malasakit sa kumpanya, they cannot be trusted. And I am 100% sure they are not doing their jobs properly. Pakitang tao lang kunwari nagtatrabaho. They don’t appreciate their employment with us, then they should be made to leave.

13. Hay napagod ako pag sermon.
