Intiative.......

today i received an email asking us what are the kinds of animals that our international office need to consider for any kind of products development...... funny i thought that someone who works in international office to not know the answer. i replied and told them the animals they should "avoid".... *sigh* Will they listen and do something about it? Not sure... we shall see. So far, I have informed people I know and yet, nothing has changed... oh well. their lost. I've accepted that I don't have to educate people, they should do so themselves... afterall, I did learn certain things on my own... the hard way.

I think Asian are a lot more sensitive to other people's cultural/ religious beliefs.... and that is very sad. Why is it that people don't take any effort to do something about it.

I was caught in a snow storm last Feb in New York New York. It was a great experience and the snow storm was BEAUTIFUL. Seriously. I became a kid all over again, played with snow, took lots of pictures and try to capture as much as I can in with my photogenic memory....

Anyway, at the hotel, the staff could not handle the guests demands. i'm sure the requests were not that hard to fulfil. This was my request:

Me: hi.... can i order some food?
Staff: No. Its buffet lunch
Me: But there is nothing i can eat. It's all meat, chicken, ham and I am vegetarian.
Staff: sorry. We have salad and bread
* bear in mind, I am caught in a snow storm and the last meal i had was at 11pm the night before. I requested for food at 12nn the next day.
Me: would it be possible to get your cook to make me an egg omelette?
Staff: No
Me: Why?
Staff: because there is only one cook.
and off she goes.....

I don't understand. Its buffet lunch, the cook must have finsihed cooking and all he needed to do was replenish the food. How long does it take to fry an omelette? So I ordered pizza... and waited for a FEW hours for it to arrive. I didn't even see it.... i gave up after calling them several times....

It annoyed me that people don't care and don't bother to care. Everything they (as in US) revolves around them and they get away with it.
