Malaysia and its customer service

i bet a lot of people has written about this but what happen yesterday was really pushing my nerve because i have been patient for numerous blunders from our customer services....

ok here's the scoop...i was having dinner at Manhattan Fish Market which is one of my favorite place to eat...i had problem with ulcers at my tongue and so i had to take soft food...sifting through the menu i saw an appetizer...clam chowder which comes with different type of meat so to speak..so i ordered salmon clam chowder...and share a big platter of seafood with a friend...

i waited....the drinks came...then continue waiting...and waiting...and waiting....guess what food came after all that waiting...the seafood platter.....so i was wondering...do they know what appetizer means???...

seriously people...if you want to work in the food industry....you have to know these things....appetizer means that you eat it before the main course comes....

and to make things worse...the seafood platter was nearly finish but there is still no sign of the clam chowder...i called the waiter and told him that i want to cancel the clam chowder...the waiter did not even try to explain why they could not deliver the clam chowder......

how busy can you get??i mean really...there is a group of people having a birthday party there but that does not mean that you can ignore other customers orders.....

to compare the situation with the one that i saw in Japan, it's like next to nothing.....imagine this..a restaurant so pack that there is a line outside...but the waiter is so efficient and the chef is so fast that my family got what we ordered within 10 minutes...and we did order an appetizer which COMES BEFORE THE MAIN COURSE MIND YOU....

we thought because the food was fast that it will not taste so good...boy were we wrong...it was as if a first class chef made our food with such precision in taste....it was really delicious..

so in light of all of this i want to make suggestion to our customer service system in Malaysia...do your job properly OK!!....we pay you when you take our orders..some so expensive that it cost as much as the food ...therefore we expect to be given excellent service....and DONT GIVE ME we are not Japanese but we are Malaysian and therefore we are entitle to having bad service crap....i'll kick ur asses so hard you wish you were the cleaners of that place...

make role models from other nations which are much more advance in their customer service..it is the only way to move ahead and be on equal footing...

till next time...sayonara ;)

finance...we meet again!!!

i was glad when i received my diploma certificate...it was the end for the 3 long years in Segamat learning financial stuff...i thought i was over...and boy was i WRONG!!!

my second sem in UM started...well..calmly and unchaotic i might say compare to last sem...

i mean last sem was like running around like crazy..because i knew my result just a couple of days

before the registration...i abandon everything in UiTM(literally...hehehe...sorry to my course

advisor for the trouble i caused) and move to study in UM

anyway back to story...i had financial management again due to the fact that it is a faculty subject.....

which means it is compulsory and i cannot use my credit exemption....owh well...

as the lecturer was explaining about time value of money i cant help but to remember what En. Sham(is it spelled with a Y or a H??hehehe.. sorry En.Sham) taught me....and after all that brain
squeezing we went to benteng and "lepak" there...good times..good times....

kepada Allah kami beriman...Rasullulah pesuruh-Nya

sekarang isu tentang pengunaan kalimah Allah sibuk dicakap oleh pemimpin2 kita...sehinggakan

dibawa ke mahkamah yang membuahkan keputusan kalimah Allah dibenarkan untuk diguna oleh

bukan Islam ...tetapi yang peliknya...kenapa hakim dari bukan Islam atau para ulama yang

dijadikan sebagai pengadil???...adakah hakim tersebut tahu dan telah mengkaji tentang asal-usul

kalimah Allah itu sendiri dan bukan mengharapkan org lain menceritakan

kepadanya??...mungkin org yg menceritakan boleh menokok nambah cerita atau mengubah

cerita yang menyebabkan hakim tersebut salah faham...sebabnya perkara ini menyentuh akidah

umat Islam..bukan sewenang-wenangnya boleh diberi kata putus sebegitu.....kenapa sebelum

ini tidak dibawa ke mahkamah??...kenapa 3 tahun dahulu tidak dibawa ke mahkamah?kenapa

tidak 5 tahun dahulu??kenapa baru sekarang??...adakah tidak ada cara lain hendak merosakan akidah umat Islam sehinggakan mereka hendak menggunakan nama Allah sebagai titik

pembawa kesesatan mereka sedangkan nama Allah patut kita takuti dan beriman....

ingatlah kamu semua...balasan Allah bukan sahaja di akhirat...

kita telah acap kali melihat kekuasaan Allah contohnya tsunami 2004 dimana kita melihat

beratus-ratus ribu orang terkorban dan Banda Acheh ditukarkan menjadi tidak ubah seperti tin

minuman yang telah di pijak menjadi penyek...dan Acheh hanya mempunyai sebahagian saja

yang menghadap laut...cuba bayangkan Malaysia yang kedua2 bahagiannya menghadap laut ini

menghadapi tsunami dari Allah??....wallahua'lam...

ingat balasan Allah tidak mengenal manusia...yang beriman dan yang tidak akan terima

juga..tetapi yang beriman beruntunglah mereka...mendapat keredhaan Allah dan terlepas dari

dugaan dunia...tetapi yang tidak beriman..sudahlah sesat...tidak mendapat kesempatan untuk betaubat...

semoga Allah melindungi umat Islam...amin

holiday has started!!!

with my last paper on the 10th of November, i realized it was the end of a tough year and a tough sem....new environment..new friends...and new problems...what could i ask more right??...well anyway i am looking forward to this sem break... to relax and chill with my family...and also my friends which i havent been able to hangout with them for a long time...im waiting for you guys to finish your finals...then lets hit the mall and watch some movies...see ya!!!

ring of death...influenza for you xbox

ok it like this...i was playing the musou orochi warriors which is basiclly a war game when suddenly the image blurred and freezes(i was bored studying..even though exam was a week away :p)...and i thought a simple restart would have settled it...

well not exactly that simple...i press the xbox on/off button to close and again to restart

when it restarted, there were 3 red lights that appeared on the led checking system. there are 4 green led lights that microsoft position in front of the xbox 360 console around the on/off button. upon starting your xbox 360, the led will check the system to ensure that it is working fine...

it wasnt fine for my xbox 360...

there are 3 blinking led lights and i knew straight away what it was....

RING OF DEATH!!!

this is the term used by xbox 360 owners because basically the xbox is unuseable when this happens....

they either has to buy a new one or send it to Microsoft facility in which if ur in the States it is convienient as Microsoft is located there but when ur outside of the States..let say Malaysia..that is impossible right...

i read in some forums that if you want to send to Microsoft..might as well you buy a new one because the cost is gonna be ridiculous...remember it is not in ringgit...it is in dollar..so you do the math...

and furthermore there is a possibility of your xbox will either reach them or you in pieces...

owh snap..i was like noooo...how am i suppose to fix it....

i use the youtube to find my answers and there it is....videos on how to fix your xbox when it has ROD..which soon after i found it to be either impossible or incredible to do...

one of the many solution is simply using towels which will wrapped the xbox as thick as possible....turning it on...and leave it for a few minutes...

the idea= to make the xbox overheat....genius!!(sarcastically said)

and then let it cool down for a few minutes...

the xbox will be reusable for another 3 to 4 days..so they say...that is if you do not fry all the microchip in the xbox during the overheating process...

anyway i search using google for a place in kl that can fix the problem and presto there it is...
it is located in cineleisure or right now it is called e@curve i think...
here is the add and no...

Gamer's Hideout SDN BHD
Lot LG -11 ( i ) , Lower Ground Floor,

this is what the ROD looks like... there are 1 red light and 2 red light problem also but that is not ROD....ROD is when 3 red light blinks...basically my xbox is unusable right now..hoping to get it fix ASAP....

blackberry and barcodes!!

after my blackberry messenger updated to version 5.0, it was installed with an application to scan barcodes that is unique. these barcodes will give information about a website or an instant messenger profile, and heck even phone numbers and sms...cool isnt it...if u want to send a secret message to ur frens...what a cool way to do it....but the problem is that you gotta have a blackberry device or phones has the software for the barcodes... anyway here are some of the barcodes...if you guys have a blackberry device, scan it with the bbm barcode scanner...discover the hidden message...hehehe








have fun figuring it out...

kacang lupakan kulit....

dah lama x blog...baru hari ni berkesempatan nk blog dan tak tau kenapa
tetiba nk blog pasal peribahasa ni...
walaupun skrg nk dekat pkl 2 pagi tapi x boleh tido....so bloglah jawapannya...
kita lihat org zaman sekarang sesuai digambarkan dgn peribahasa ini
sbb ramai diantara mereka telah lupa dgn asal-usul mereka dan pertolongan org lain.
yelah dulu kita xde apa2...pastu ada insan yang baik hati bantu kita dgn harapan nk memberikan kita pertolongan...bila kita dh berjaya,kita nafi org tu yg tolong kita....
bkn sahaja kita nafikan..kalau takat nafi tu boleh lagi...
tp ni kita kutuk dan cerca org tu sehinggakan dia nampak sebagai seorg yang tidak
penting dalam kehidupan kita padahal sekiranya org tu xde
dalam hidup kita, segala kesenangan kita yg ada skrg ni x mungkin kita dapat...
anyway..cuma nk bgtau sahaja pasal perkara ni sbb kita mmg telah lupa asal-usul kita...
sepatutnya org yg bantu menaikkan kita mestilah dihormati dan disanjung..
tpkan kita buat dia jadi mcm kucing jalanan...dihalaunya bila nampak...
posting kali ini bukan untuk mengutuk atau mengata mana2 pihak..tetapi kita kene sedar, tanpa org tu..siapalah kita...jangan jadi kacang lupakan kulit...ingat lagu alicia keys-karma...what goes around comes around,what goes up must come down...n trust me...in this day and age..it is all in cash..no credit...believe me, ive seen it...till next posting...
