"Your domain name will die a natural death."
~ Manny Ong

 

Nagpost ng message ang aking ex-favorite agent at tinatanong kung may kilala akong Manny Ong, tapos napangiti ako. The next thing I knew, tumatawa na ko mag-isa sa workstation ko kasi naalala ko yung mga times na wala kaming ginawa kundi tumawa at pagtawanan sya. Kung ide-describe ko sya in one word, sabihin na lang natin na "classic" sya.

Nung nasa Web site Support pa ko at sya ay nasa Customer Service, and tingin ko sa kanya kagalang-galang na mamang maginoo at intelehente. Pero nabago yan ng magkasama kami sa E-mail Team. Dun ko nalaman mali ang akala ko. Heheheh.

Ang mga sumusunod ay mga tinatawag kong Mongisms. Mga hirit na tatak Manny Ong.

"Oh, don't worry, sir. Your domain name will die a natural death."
- Sabi nya sa isang customer na ayaw na magrenew ng domain name. O san ka pa?

"It depends on you. Sky is the limit."
- Sabi nya sa isang customer na nag-i-inquire kung pano nya mabibili ang isang registered domain name. Kaso wrong info, kasi may limit ang pwede i-offer na price. Hehehe.

"Would you like to renew it for 9 years? How about 5 years? You can get blah... blah. How about 3 years? 2 Years? Why sir, is it the price?"
- Yes, upsell to the max. Pero ng dahil dyan, lagi syang top seller at nanalo pa sya ng trip to Bohol (or was it Davao?) sa isang sales campaign. Kaya lang sana di natakot ang customer.

"My motto is 'quality over quantity.' How many quality e-mails have you processed?"
- Kasi nasa 5-6 e-mails per hour ata sya at pangalawa sa listahan ng pinaka mabagal mag-email sa buong e-mail team.

"My new motto is 'the more the merrier'."
- Matapos i-announce na ang hindi maka-meet ng targets ma-e-enroll sa PIP (Performance Improvement Plan).

"I only have one name, but you can call me Manny (pronounced many)."
- Introduction nya sa sarili nya nung first day ng training sa nilipatang call center.

"Alam mo, ang ganda mo talaga. Mula ulo mukhang paa."
- Nung minsan ko syang maka-YM. Kainis!

Sa isa sa aming mga drinking sessions...

MOng: Alam mo ba? May natutunan ako.
Me: Ano?
MOng: Ang pag pronounce pala ng "customer" hindi "kos-tu-mer"
Me: O ano? (waiting for the puchline)
MOng: Customer (correctly pronounced)
Me: Oo nga.
MOng: Huh? Alam mo rin yon?

Tapos dati pinipilit nya yung isang e-mail agent na ex-US Navy nag magso-sosyo sila sa isang online janitorial services. Wahehe.

MOng: Are you in your house right now so I can walk you through mopping the floor?

Classic. Miss ko na si Manny Ong.

Dun sa picture naming dalawa, pinagkalat nya dati na kinurot ko daw bigla pwet nya kaya sya napakindat. Hahahaha!!!

Hooked on Cook
POSTED AT 03:17 PM

"I was surprised that David chose 'Always Be My Baby' because... I don't know what he's gonna do with it." ~ Mariah Carey

 

Okay, I'm either a certified late bloomer or I just don't have much time to go home early and watch TV. While everyone was raving about American Idol, I was probably working my a** off to get those evaluations and coaching sessions completed. It was just lately that I discovered how David Cook can drive girls crazy, especially with his rendition of Mariah Carey's "Always be My Baby." I swear, kinikilig ako.

Yes, I'm hooked on Cook. I mean look at him. Isn't he such a hottie?


My baby won. Yey! I knew he'd nail it.

All Rice
POSTED AT 02:05 PM

"Talk does not cook rice." ~ Chinese Proverb

 

Ilang linggo ko nang napapanood sa TV ang problema natin ngayon sa supply ng bigas. Sa buong mundo problema ngayon ang pagkain. Habang nagbabangayan mga tao sa itaas, dumedelihensya ang ordinaryong Pinoy ng pambili ng murang bigas.

Pag tinanong ka ng isang foreigner kung ano sa Filipino ang "rice," maiisip mo bang depende sa rice? Ie-explain mo ba sa kanya na dito satin ang rice pag nakatanim pa "palay," pag naani na "bigas," pag niluluto pa lang "sinaing." pag naluto na "kanin," pag lumamig na "bahaw," pag niluto ulit "sinangag" at pag napanis, "kaning baboy" Hehehehe. Sabi sa isang quotation, "The Eskimos have 52 names for snow because it is important to them." Ganun lang kasimple yun.

Kumain kami ni Aysman sa Leslie's sa Tagaytay. Ang steamed rice nila P40.00. Huwaaat? 2 kilong NFA rice na yun ah! Dapat mag-diet na lang tayong lahat.

FEBRUARY 
Abstract thoughts. Loves reality and abstract. Intelligent and clever. Changing personality. Attractive. Sexy. Temperamental. Quiet, shy and humble. Honest and loyal. Determined to reach goals. Loves freedom. Rebellious when restricted. Loves aggressiveness. Too sensitive and easily hurt. Gets angry really easily but does not show it. Dislike unnecessary things. Loves making friends but rarely shows it. Daring and stubborn. Ambitious. Realizing dreams and hopes. Sharp. Loves entertainment and leisure. Romantic on the inside not outside. Superstitious andludicrous. Spendthrift. Tries to learn to show emotions.

AQUARIUS
You are from another planet and your unique idiosyncracies and trails of thought can woo a smitten crowd of worshippers. The clueless seem to think you're a little wacko but that's because thay can't ride on the brainwaves of a genius or appreciate your rice-sack-to-fashion-statement creation. You love meeting new people because you think you might learn something new or develop a new perspective in the process. It's easy to please you because you always see something wonderful in everybody and are generally open to finding love in the most bizarre places. From your friends and guy prospects (whose names are too many to jot down in your little black book), it's the bohemian types who are equally enthralled by adventure who tickle your fancy the most. Chocolates and romantic dinners intrigue you but friendship is the winning factor in keeping you bound to a relationship. The more space a relationship gives you to explore the world and be free, the more faithful you'll be.
