Luggage disaster

It cost me the whole of my wallet, literally.

It cost me half an afternoon to put up with all the waiting and then the paper work/ procedure that they just had to put me through.

It cost 5-minute of everyone’s time on that plane because of those nuisance they imposed on me before I was allowed to catch the flight.

It’s gonna cost even more now that I have to cancel/ block/ reapply/ reissue all the cards, personal ID documents and whatever that was in that stolen wallet of mine.

All because someone made an unbelievably silly mistake--a mistake so stupid it’s not even worth mentioning at all--at the expense of my time & energy.

And the best line they could came up with at the end of the day, after I signed their liability-releasing document thingy, was “Sorry for the inconvenience”.

Well you should feel sorry about those below-par standard-of-services of yours instead.

(No Thanks for the courtesy, I’d rather pay with my own money—if you guys could ever retrieve the missing wallet at all!)

To advance the figure in my bankbook

What’s worse than a nerve-wrecking trip of outstation assignment?
-Suffer a bad flu during the most of the trip.

What’s worse than going on a business trip and subsequently caught flu?
-Being required to extend the duration of the said trip.

What’s worse than being sick on a prolonged trip of less-than-successful assignment?
-Being told in advance that another long, nerve-wrecking trip awaits me…right after this one.


Would it be too much if I am asking nothing less than a FAT paycheck at the end of every month from now on?

Hot Sun Bright Stars Sandy Beach


Perhaps I should do this more often.

(Come out and Play!)

.
Sore arms, tired legs, slightly light-headed… but heck, I have no complaint at all--except maybe the trip should be made longer--cause 3-day 2-night just isn’t enough for such amount of great fun!
