June 4th, Sat - MITC & OT

Today was kinda a busy day even though it was a Public Holiday, which means it was suppose to be an off day, but I did OT (overtime)..with a ridiculous pay, but ok la, since I'm only having training ma... Kinda fun after all...

Left for MITC at around 10am, supervisor fetch lor, what else... Reached there, many booths have not opened yet, but there was a lot of people as there was a coloring competition for kids.

After opening booth, I went around with Streamyx flyer & remembering what Mr. Frankie had taught us the day before.. putting it to good use. However, I still did not manage to get any customers.. sigh... Many did say that they are already using Streamyx while minority did not seem interested & some pratically can't wait to get away... hmph.. They were a few that was interested, but wanted to take more time to think over the promotions & ponder on their decisions whether to sign up or not. Anyway, I did give them relevant brochure(s) & of course the one with the company name, address & telephone number so that they can still sign up with us even after the fair is over (tomorrow's last day).

However, there were 2 annoying guys from another booth (some language learning thingy) who seems to like the idea of kacau-ing (disturbing) me.. One of them (a Malay) I did talked to yesterday when he asked me to sign up to learn some languages, which I brushed him off by telling him that my english is good enough =P, I can speak Malay language despite what he thinks (which he made me speak just to prove that I can) & that I do not have money to travel overseas so for what I wanna learn another language - I have no interest in them & it'll just burn more holes in my pocket.

Anyway, today he saw me & came to buat kacau (disturb). He tried again to ask me to sign up, again which I brushed him off & then irritate him by asking him to sign up for Streamyx. He asked me if I knew the meaning of couple, to which I replied two people together la (lame answer, I know). Then he said he knew I would say that & actually it means some staple thingy or what-so-ever la... which left with a huge huh (I look for the meaning of couple in www.dictionary.com but not 1 meaning has anything to do with any stationaries also...duh). Then he blab on that he have seen couples like Chinese & Indian, Indian & Malay, so do you wanna couple with me?? I was like WTF! Of course I didn't say that out loud la. I said No & he went on blabbing for another 2, 3 minutes before I cut him short.

Later on, when I passed that booth again, his colleague (an Indian this time), passed me a brochure to which I told him that the other guy (pointing at him) had already given me yesterday, to which he said he give is he give, I give you different ma... So not wanting him to blab so much, I took it & wanted to run off. Perhaps this is how some people feel when I approach them.. hmphh.. But he started blabbing right away.. sighsighsigh... He asked bout my English, so I decided to boast a little with my results in 1119 so he would shut up & leave me alone but he wouldn't stop so I let him taste his own medicine by annoying him to sign up for Streamyx, to which he replied, if you be my girlfriend then I sign up la.. (what's wrong with this company's people man!).. of course I tell him No la.. Then he asked if we can have lunch together, which I said No, then he pressed on with some questions & then asked me what bout dinner, to which I said I already meeting someone for that.. Then he said you're hebat la (something like terrific, I guess) & gave up.. Hahahaa... After lunch (I bought a burger & a chocolate milk shake (yummy!) & eat in my duty booth, I did not wander off any more as I did not want this guys to bug me with more questions.. =P

I relate the incidents to my colleague & the guy (a new friend now) working at the booth next to ours. My new friend said it's normal la, pretty girls being disturb... Hahahaa.. he said me pretty worr.. though I don't think I am, but I take that as a compliment, SS. Thank-you-very-much! Hehehee..
