Two of the neighbours dogs roaming up and down the street looking for a place to dump which no doubt will be the grass in front of your house since the neighbour has the artificial stuff . Geez , and here i was thinking it was for putting practice .
Feeling a little sorry for one of the neighbours pooches that hobbles around on three legs probably because it spends so much time in the street and because Evil Knievel lives 2 doors down . Motorcycles with mufflers apparently not being allowed here .
Watching the young lady on the other side of the street do the standard Filipino sweep the asphalt routine which is as reliable as the sun coming up . Can understand picking up paper , plastic and whatever though never quite grasp the need to move the dirt on the street around from one place to another .
Contemplating the return of my stepdaughter to the house now that she is back in the job market again and wondering why after two days she feels the need to rearrange the kitchen , especially given that the kitchen is about the size of an American toilet . And , no you can't move the 2 burner stove inside the house . :-)
Wondering why my first Lazada order arrived within 24 hrs from Manila but without two items i ordered and being minus the 300 peso birthday discount coupon they emailed me not being deducted . Also wondering how long for them to answer my email enquiring about same .
Not the best way to treat a first time customer i am thinking but then customer service does not seem to be included in the Philippine business model . Thinking surely these people realize that saving 300 peso in the short term will be far outweighed from lost revenue in the future ?
Wondering why after a one time email to Paypal they are sending me requests for customer service feedback when i am still trying to get answers from them . And am i reading this correct . You can send money out of your Paypal peso account but need to receive into your US $ account with some banks here . And why is it that the biggest banks in the Philippines don't jump at the chance to get on board this cash cow ?
And who does the marketing for retailers here , a 6th grader . Why not just tell people that your business accepts credit cards instead of running promos for " instalment payments " ? Instalment payments to who , the business , the bank , the loan shark , etc .
Makes me want to sign up for one of those no credit needed credit cards that don't actually exist except in cypher space currently being hawked on Facebook . Come to think of it i did sign up . Wonder if no response because i don't have 1,000 + Facebook friends or hundreds of photos of myself on line . Or , maybe because i told them i didn't need a $ 50 credit card since anything i would use a credit card for would cost more than $ 50 ?
Anyway , time for another cup of Java..
Have a Great Day !
