PosMalaysia's inefficiency

Here I am again, ranting bout the same old thing. Again. Yet the funny part is, despite complaints and suggestions given, nothing has been done to improve. Is this really how any national company should operate in this country?

It is interesting to note that a national delivery company is doing tonnes of other things - payment for utilities bills, assessments and such - and is currently offering even more services or products for sale in its outlets. Yet, it can't even accomplish service efficiency in its core product/service - which is national delivery.

Then again, perhaps this is only a problem faced by small town people of RAWANG. I have heard from friends that in their locations such as Subang or Petaling, the outlets provide a separate counter to handle deliveries - this work best mainly because customers who just want to drop a quick parcels will not be stuck with others who are queuing up to pay their bills. This strategy make much more sense as focus are given to their core product/service. And of course, when there's no customer wanting delivery, the staffs can easily switch back to work on those bills. 

Oh, since now I'm on the others or extra services - it is amusing to see how often the system breaks down which causes furious customers who either waiting in line, or customers who faced the same "System Down" the day before - shoots out burning fire breaths! Sometimes I take pity with the staffs, for their are not to be blamed for system failure and such. On other occasions I will be part of the pissed-off group, due to rude staffs and their extremely slow work attitude.

As PosMalaysia Rawang has just recently moved into AEON Rawang last month, it is understandable things can be a little messy. But surely, this move is not very sudden? I was told that the reason for the move is because the last location in a shop is getting very crowded and mainly they want to employ more staffs to deal with the crowd. Yet after a month of opening in AEON, no new staff has been employed - meaning to say the time is too short to hire? Like seriously?

Perhaps I should really take a fellow friend's suggestion into action. Open a booth outside PosMalaysia - service for sale is online bill payment with just RM2 charge. Surely I can easily make a hundred a day. All I need is - a laptop, internet connection and a printer.

Animals who has more love than humans

I saw this lovely post on ViralNova.com and I just can't let it go without reposting it. After all, it is a beautiful story, and I cried a little at the end. I hope you love it as much as I do <3

What These 11 Animals Did Made Me Cry A Bucket Of Tears. The Most Touching Thing I’ve Ever Seen. 

If you’ve ever doubted that animals have souls and are capable of caring on a deep level, this is going to change your mind. Here are 11 examples of animals being the beautiful creatures that we know they are – you might not need tissues, but it wouldn’t hurt to grab one first.

1. Yang Yun was free diving when she discovered, at the bottom of an arctic pool, that her legs cramped up and she couldn’t move.

She said, “I began to choke and sank even lower and I thought that was it for me – I was dead. Until I felt this incredible force under me driving me to the surface.” A Beluga whale saw what was happening and lifted her to safety.

2. This is Oscar, a cat that lived in a nursing home. He could sense when someone was going to die, and he would sit quietly on their bed during their final moments.

One surviving family member of a resident that passed with Oscar by his side said, “Oscar’s presence gave a sense of completion and contentment. Oscar brought a special serenity to the room. What’s more peaceful than a purring cat? What sound more beautiful to fill one’s ears when leaving this life?”

3. When Cindy the chimp died of heart failure, all of the other chimps at this rescue in Cameroon hugged each other and watched in solidarity. A truly beautiful, amazing moment.

4. The amazing story of Christian the lion is one you will never forget.

5. These abused circus elephants were reunited 25 years later at an elephant sanctuary. Their story is moving.

6. Cows have best friends. They literally get depressed and their stress levels rise when they are not with their BFF.

7. It would be a travesty to leave out the gorilla that remembered his friend.

8. Five children were playing with this Jack Russell Terrier when some stray pit bulls attacked them. “George tried to protect us by barking and rushing at them,” said one of the children about the attack. George was bitten several times and died of his wounds. But he was given an award for his actions.

9. Koko the Gorilla watches her favorite movie and the result is a tear jerker.

10. This Staffordshire bull terrier saved his mommy and daddy. Patricia Adshead was in her house, making tea, when masked men wielding machetes entered. They sliced Patricia’s husband through his hand and went for her. That’s when Oi, the family dog, attacked the attackers. He was sadly hit with the machete, but still managed to chase them out of the house. He later died.

11. Irene Pepperberg had a beautiful relationship with her parrot, Alex. When he died in 2007, his last words to her were: “You be good – I love you.”

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to clean my face up.

Return of the Boom-Boom-Pow!

Actually, with that translated - It actually meant return of the crazy ass - ME!

Not much of a return. Early morning I know for sure what I wanted to talk about. As the day wears on and with me running around the house and doing works online, I suddenly "forgets".

Is it sign of old age? I hope not. I wish not. Hopefully it's just a matter of having "prawn brain". *cries*

It is now year-end, and like many, worries and issues are popping up more than those that you can actually do something about such as
- Crimes on the rise
- New GST introduced
- Petrol hike
- Electric hike
- Sugar hike
- Everyday food and product usage PRICE hike

I was told never to worry on things we can't do anything about. Well, okay. So I'll worry on money management? I've went for some interviews (it's there's a good offer, I'm the type to find out more) only to reject and get rejected on a few. Mostly want me to "slave" on it. It seems that companies these days always put such clause - "May need to work on Saturday or Sunday, or stay after work-hours" which I find ridiculous. You will hear managers telling you "Never bring your personal problems to work" but it seems okay to bring work home though.

Which is why I still prefer working for myself (it can be pretty stressful) but I am able to place myself on time-off when necessary. At the end of the day, it is a matter of priorities. I choose LIFE over money. I just need enough, not too much. I've seen some friends having the time of their lives travelling only to be in depression when back to work. You get what you give. In my case, I get to breathe.
