are malaysians really that infamous for their tardiness???
oh before i continue and to make some sense...just wanna say that i got that freelancer job with brainstore who will be operating the ideafactory during the 3rd global knowledge conference from 11 to 13 dec. yeah!! extra income! from the programmes planned, this is kinda HUGE with an impressive speakers list. and the PM will be there officiating. but my job has nothing to do with the forums and stuff. so maybe i will get a glimpse of some very impressive guests and still dunno who they are.
back to tardiness. we, freelancers were told by the brainstore staff to attend a briefing on saturday at 4p.m. we (bro and friends and cousin zhong) as job seekers were of course punctual as we did not want to jeopardize our chances of securing the jobs. but 3 people were 30 minutes late and they did not show any remorse or whatsoever. when the production manager told samuel who was giving us briefing to remind about punctuality, samuel gave a very wide cheshire cat grin and said ,'oh, we are in malaysia now.' WTC!!! that felt like a slap on the face man! that was so embarassing. now even the swiss will bring this back with them. or maybe they can use this to sell their watches.
but the 5 of us will not fall into this mentality!!! we vowed that and we know punctuality is important although we do not have swiss made watches to show us the time!

my wedding dinner(if there's gonna be any), max i 'll wait 30 minutes... then will start oledi...let the late comer all miss the first dish... and will make sure the first dish is the best!!! hahahaha....
the first dish is always the best in a wedding dinner! i guess the hungry stomach just can't wait to gobble up whatever is presented. anyway, will wait for your big day and u better make sure the first dish is the best!
As a matter of fact, yes (so sorry too to tell)!!
