Embarrasing Moment 101

My boss came to my office and we were chitchatting. My telephone rang and I knew it was a marketing call. I picked it up and ask the girl on the other line what it was for? She then told me ” I just need thirty seconds of your time. ” I hung up it right then and then.

The receptionist sometimes thought that these calls are genuine so that is why she just transfer them to me. Paano ba naman, these marketing agents would call you by your first name. Feeling close!

Moi: I hate those marketing calls!
Boss: You better be mean with those kind of calls.

The phone rang again and a 1-800 number registered on my caller ID.

Moi: Hello
Caller: I am looking for Rester, this is Chuvaekek from….
Moi: If this is a marketing call, I don’t have time for you!!! (Yelling)

I hung up without giving him a chance to talk.

Feeling ko ang mean ko na!

The phone rang again and it was the same number. I got really furious.
Moi: May I help you?
Caller: What’s your name?
Moi: What’s your name? ( I yelled at him. Ang mokong na to, ako pa ang tatanungin kung anong name ko.) Why are you asking my name? You are the one who called! (Irritated)
Caller: I am Kevin from Dell computers. I am not going to sell you anything. I just want to talk to Rester. I am her contact person and account manager. I just have few questions on her order.

Waaaa. Dell is our main supplier of our computers, peripherals, and server needs. I know this guy!

Moi: Uhmmm. She’s not in her desk right now. Do you want to leave a message or you know what you can also email her. ( Nagpacute na ang tono ng boses ko.)
Caller: Well, I am just going to email her.
Moi: Uhmmm. I apologize about..
Caller: That’s fine. I get that a lot.
Moi: I get marketing calls a lot too. In fact the call prior to yours was a marketing call. (Todo explain ang lola.)
Caller: No worries.
Moi: Thanks.
Caller: Bye.

Hahaha. My boss laughed his head off. I was embarrassed. You know how it feels that you have this rage and then you realized that it was not necessary? You are ready to blow your anger out and then you realize you are wrong to get angry to begin with? To top it off, somebody had witnessed your unnecessary outburst and it just happened it was your boss? You know how it feels like? It feels like sh*t. (excuse my french)

Random Split

Suddenly, I had the urge to eat banana split. I gave in to my craving. I stopped my work at went to the nearby SONIC.
