My letter of disgust to Mang Inasal

I Just want to bring to your attention that your branch/franchise in SM Marilao is poorly serving your customers, might be proper to review their performance.

My family decided to have dinner in your resto(SM Marilao). I was already infront of the cashier and waiting for her to ask me our order. The counter was open since it served a customer before me and no sign that it is closed -- for sure the counter was open. she was a bit of doing something, counting bills i think, so i stood there waiting for her to take my order and after a few minutes realized that she had no intention of taking my order so i changed lane going to another counter. after that a customer queued into that cashier and she took his order, that pissed me off since it is very clear she DIDN'T take my order.

I asked the cashier at the counter i am in why the other counter didn't take my order and couldn't answer as if she was mute. I then asked the cashier whom didn't take my order why she neglected to get my order -- still no answer and most importantly NO SORRY was heard out of her silent mouth.

I then escalated the matter to the supervisor/manager and asked why they are all not answering my questions. Surprisingly...the manager was also mute and could not handle the situation, he didn't even asked the first cashier...did not even bothered to handle the situation.

It looked liked I was surrounded by mute people, i thought this was a resto not a mime show.

So my family and I left WITHOUT hearing even one single "SORRY" from these mimes.

What you should do is fire the Supervisor for not handling the situation well, fire the cashier for not taking orders from customers who give you income.

and instead open up a mime show, that would probably sell.

Goodluck to your franchise business. If you don't fix this you will certainly lose a lot of customers. This looked more like a blog now so i will post this to every channel i could find.

Just incase you guys don't know the meaning of sorry, here it is:
from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regret_(emotion)

Regret is an intelligent and emotional dislike for personal past acts and behaviors. Regret is often felt when someone feels sadness, shame, embarrassment, depression or guilt after committing an action or actions that the person later wishes that he or she had not done.


Disgusted Customer,

That's one small candy wrapper for a man, one giant leap backwards on environmental impact

I have been preaching to my family most especially to my wife how important it is to be responsible in everything, everywhere and to everyone. I also often emphasize how a small act of goodness and or righteousness can change the world.

My wife and i went outside at 11PM to buy some ice, she bought also a small piece of chocolate/candy.  on our way back, i saw her drop a small piece of wrapper, i asked her if i was correct in seeing her drop off a little piece of wrapper like it was nothing, and she concede.  ofcourse that's my time again to preach how small things can change the world.  she got mad at my lecture yada yada yada.

Ok, me talking to myself, self i think it's time for a reality check. "Do you lost consider yourself successful in evangelizing the whole world on how the world should be?", well you can't even influence your other half how come you want to change the world then.

at that point i am lost again, hopeless, depressed, ...there is no way this world will ever change to the better. people are so lax. my wife's excuse is that it was only a small piece of wrapper and it was her first time to do that. judging by the chemical composition of the wrapper it is a sturdy plastic wrapper that i think will decompose in 100 years time, if all people of this world would do the same, i think that there would be a lot of garbage that will be collected everyday, everyday people throwing their first garbage!

i'm back to my poor old lost soul again, with no sign of hope. i'm a failure, can't even influence my own wife.

small can be powerful, once can be a multiplier. Good luck to us all.

Responsiblity is the ability to take charge of the future.

I'm lost...i hope i could have influenced you in some way.

were we god?

why is it that when we were small kids we felt like we were invincible/indestructible/boundless/timeless? is it because we were that way?

To manifest love

what if god created this realm to manifest love, meaning men are not the most important thing god created and that men are not the reason why god created this universe. as opposed to what religion has taught us.

i think love can't be manifested by a machine, since it will only follow a set of rules.

love is doing illogical things for the em better of others

love is illogical in a way that, in order to give love you must lose some of yourself. you cant give love without sacrifice, if so then you are just being fair - you are just following a concept/instruction.

god is a being that manifests love, and as a creator he wants to see this love manifested outside of him.

the greatest invention always to the human mind is to create something that we humans manifest. the best invention would be an artificial intelligence, and that is what we are striving for, something that will mimic us.

we want something that can do things we do, think like we do, even have emotions like what we have.

being able to love takes us to a higher level -- maybe even to the level of god, being one with him.

WARNING!!

what i say here are just my thoughts. some may be angered thoughts. it doesn't mean also that i am right, i make mistakes but i learn from them.

if you have any thoughts about my thoughts, please do not hesitate to post it. i will welcome it and react to it, but nothing personal. if i find my thoughts wrong then i accept yours.

I AM NOT ALWAYS RIGHT, THOUGH I TRY TO BE...

Bishop Vicente Navarra

Bacolod Bishop Vicente Navarra said "last Thursday's six-hour standoff led by Senator Antonio Trillanes IV in Makati City may well be a warning from God"

warning from god? is this priest saying that trillanes is god sent? is Vicente Navarra a priest/bishop?

can we just pause for a moment and ask all the bishops in the philippines if they also feel the same way? are we back from the old testament allowing barbaric means to resolve conflicts? do we not believe that through reason we can solve conflicts? does this bishop want more bloodshed?

what a bishop...

ok then let us play along... if trillanes is a god sent or a messenger of god, where is his seal from god? and in the oakwood mutiny god ordered trillanes to plant bombs along the perimeter, right? what a barbaric god you have then. welcome back to the old testament. and you call yourselves christians.

so god's message could be, "people of the philippines, choose your side, those not in my side will be annihilated. what a cruel god. you see people, that's why i find it hard to believe your written god.

Bishop, it doesn't necessarily follow that what you think is always right. i myself also may not be right, but please stop using god's name, and by no means represent him, he can represent himself to all of us.
