Feeling unwell
Monday, May 08, 2006
Since melvin came back from KL to work at the counter today, we decided to work towards $0 sales target per day. We hated the company for treating us like dirt, and its time for us to fight back.
In today's phone call, we either directed the customer to TRanstar,aeroline or grassland anyway jus wanna drive them off and we badmouth our own company.
A malay lady called and enquire about the bus availabilty on the 26th may for 14 paxs. I told her its fully booked for the day, actually it was a lie to drive them away. She called and she was very persistent that she wanted the seats. Out of pity i told her that there are still seats available.
She came down wasted my time, talking about hotels, bus seats and stuffs. I wasn't that pissed off till the moment her husband (bastard) came.
The first thing he commented was that
(1) Why is she(me) taking such a long time, its even faster when i book it through the airline!
(C'mon its ya wife who is wasting my time..she kept disturbing me with alot of nonsense stuff and i was unable to continue with my work. In my mind i was like trying to tell him that if u can afford to pay the airtickets go ahead!! Dun come here to book bus tickets!! )
(2) Ask me what happens if the bus broke down
( i told him that in e event if the bus was to break down our company will make arragements for their transport to KL, there will also be a refund of 50%.... ) he told me off bluntly THIS IS NOT GOOD ENF!!! what the hell u wanna me to do???? Teleport u to KL...? It was clear that he was trying to provoke me and he suceeded in it.
(3) Question me when i am going to send them their hotel voucher.
( I told them that once the hotel voucher is ready we will inform them and they can collect them at the counter just before their departure timing. )
Again he said that his departure timing was 8am and i counter is open during 9am how is it gonna to be possible.
(I explained to them that during the 18th may onwards our opening hrs will be scheduled to the earlier timings)
Bastard: What time!! (he exclaimed)
I said most probably 0730am to 0800am...
Bastard: What!! u can't even cfm our schedule how am i suppose to count on you to deliver my hotel voucher.
Bastard's Wife: Y not u deliver it to my offiice (she must be crazy)
Me: We dun have dispatch services.., i will probably fax over the hotel voucher to you
Bastard: THIS IS NOT GOOD ENF!!! (what the hell do u want.. do u really think i care. he really thought that his booking was a multi million dollar sales) WAKE UP
I was too busy to be bothered with him, too bad melvin wasn't there i really felt like kicking that bastard's ass.
Left work at 0500pm and met deborah to go for the superband concert. After the blood donation, i was really feeling unwell. The adverse effects actually came 3-4 days after. I was tired all the while, and no amount of sleep was enough for me. My arm was swollen and i can't even stretch my hand.
After the superband concert, I felt my whole mind floating.... was walking up the stairs (bridge) on arriving on the platform i can't even walk straight. I was totally dizzy and breathless...nv felt so unwell b4 by jus climbing a flight of stairs. I had forgotten to eat my iron pills.... but i can't believe its having such a great effect on me. It's just a packet of blood. Decided to do some research on it to find out what's going on. During my off day on friday i had slept 13 hrs, in e afternoon i took a nap and i slept at around 10pm. It's not me at all, i am such a light sleeper.
This is what i found out.....
Women reported significantly more adverse effects, however, the researchers suggest that this may be because of their smaller size and the fact that they are more likely to be first-time donors. In addition, it may be that first-time donors are more apt to experience adverse effects because they are younger and weigh less, both factors which are associated with increased risk of vasovagal reactions.
bruising of the arm (22.7%), followed by arm stiffness (10%). Haematoma was reported in 1.7%. Among systemic effects, fatigue was the most common complaint (7.8%) followed by vasovagal symptoms (5.3%) and nausea and vomiting (1.1%).Women (48% vs. 23% of men, p<0.0001) and first-time blood donors (47% vs. 36% of repeat donors, p<0.007)
I guess i had not been drinking enough water ,getting enf sleep and worst of all not eating my iron pills regularly....
The adverse effects are killing me....! Today i got so lethargic that i felt that my body and my mind are 2 different entities. While walking back home, i actually tot there was a step (but there was none) i nearly stumbled. I guess i was fatigue but wasn't getting enf sleep,water rest for the past 2 days.. yesterday nite slept for ard 5 hrs and today guess also the same ba...
