It may not be a first world problem but it's a normal everyday ordeal for any office worker. Where to eat? What am I going to eat? WHO AM I GOING TO EAT WITH?* Downloaded this app as a recommend and had it tried to eat on one of their participating restaurants today: KKK (Megamall branch) Wednesday I was attempting to book for 5 people on the 12 am sched at 30% off by Friday. 1130 would have been a better choice because they offer 50% but our break is exactly 1130 and I doubt we could make it on time. I was trying for 12pm but the app refuses me to book any more than 2 people. That's when I ended up with booking for Thursday / 12pm / 30% / 4 people. When we arrived I asked if it's possible to add 1 person and were told that instead of the 30% it will be reduced to 20%. As to how the manager came up with that reduction I don't know but since this is my fault we went with it anyway. We have eaten here a few times before but somehow today the food came out real quick. I gu...

in times of boredom, this is what i do to have a little fun in my station. i'm not quite sure if everybody can understand this though. (argh. note to self. buy a sign pen)

I haven't written a week-long blog for a long time due to my endless time management problems. But this week had so much to be written I have to have a blog for it. I even finished this one before the shopping blog because I really can't contain what happen on this day (today's Thursday, 5.14) Wardrobe Malfunction ? --------------------------------------------- Tuesday I was late for office. And because I was racing for time, I wore the very first things I could get my hands on - a lacey spaghetti-strapped blouse underneath another white blouse. I have unbuttoned two at the top because it just won't properly close  on the chest area. It showed cleavage but as much as I've seen it on the mirror it looked ok, like it wasn't really that 'out' so I just went out with it. In the office none of my male officemates reacted so I thought it was ok. Later on, Boss Mil went to our place and saw my outfit and said my 'bra' is peeping. I said it wasn'...

Programming For the whole 16 months I’ve been working as a developer there are three things I’ve learned and probably true to most with the same job: 1.       The user gets what they want no matter what. Yes. As I’ve said once here before, the user is the worst form of customer ever because, even if they aren’t right, they always get the last say. You may convince them to some of your ideas but the moment they sniffed they are out of control they bombard you with incredulous specs you wish you can strangle them as soon as after office hours. 2.       If you’ve already exhausted your resources, ask. Always. If there are some things you are not aware, or are having problems with, ask. Consult with as many people as possible and do not underestimate any co-worker. They may have already encountered such problems before. 3.       Never over think the solution and never forget to always keep it simple. One of the biggest problems of a...

This week I finally realized my mistake of naming my week-long blogs with ‘Weekends’. That was really sloppy and I promise to never commit that ever again. Actually I never had intentions of ever writing such lengthy blogs but I found it as a need to do so, since there are a lot of things on my head.  Plus i really I wanted to read these in the future. Mass House Eviction------------------------------------------- For those who didn’t know, I was employed in a somewhat agency type of a company and we are currently deployed in a Non-Life Insurance International company in Alabang. I would like to mention the name here (though I think I’ve already mentioned it someplace) but i’d rather not. I won’t be getting any advertisement fee anyway. So there we where. I remember our numbers reached higher in comparison to the in house employees of the IT Department last year and we collectively call ourselves ‘The Others’ as a joke which was akin to the ones in ‘Lost’ (me and another of...

Darwin--------------------------------- I know it's too late of a blog, as NGC said, in celebration of Darwin's work blah blah blah, I decided I should write on something about him as well. It is his 200th year anniversary after all (which was last Feb). I've already read what Time has to say about it, watched an episode in NGC but didn't finished it (why do they have to schedule it on a freaking Sunday night?! I have to go to work early the next day you know?!), and now it's my turn to have a say, someone of my age, of how I think I should react on it and what I thought afterwards. When I was in highschool, I had a teacher who truly believes in Darwin's Theory of Evolution whilst I was having problems on how would I ever accept it when for my entire life I've been going to church and this was 'blasphemous'. I even recall early this year our preacher was talking endlessly bashing Darwin with all his might, yet here I am, at peace with what I...

Grabe. Since last Thursday pa kong less 4 hours lang ang tulog. Alam kong ganon na kalala ang pagpupuyat ko at pagsespend ko ng almost 24 hours sa harap ng pc nang marealize ko na for the last few days I wake up e nagpapalpitate ako na para bang I’ve been working out. Darn. Tingin ko pag tinrack ko yung nag-ta-throb sa may bandang ilalim ng chin ko (the one closer sa neck, left side) more than 80 sya in a minute (I’ve watched this before na normal daw is 30 beats a minute, the moment you wake up. Safe is 60, there is a problem if it had gone to 80). I fear for my life. Naalala ko yung kwento ng ka-office mate ko na may friend (ata) yung friend nya who suddenly died on his sleep. He was a health buff yet he died. In autopsy they found his heart wrapped in fat. Well syempre hindi sila related na situation pero nakakatakot pa rin. Baka kasi sa sobrang sleep deprived ko e bigla na lang ako magshut down. Eee kakatakot. Anyways, before I went to sleep, I actually asked na sana magising ...
