oh heck! what a day it has been.....*sigh* woke up really early this morning but ended up snoozing till 8 something. how i just wished at that moment i don't have to crawl out of bed and get to work. finally rolled myself off the bed and staggered to the bathroom to wash up and get changed. just as i was warming up my car, realised that the darn cat has gone about with its delinquent habits....taking a dump at the sandy area on my porch....DAMN CAT!! wait till i get you!! had to just do the unwanted thing of clearing out its poo. dammit!
drove to the car accesory shop to see if i could be my car player fixed. yes! 3 days has gone and i'm still driving around without any audio! they weren't even open! damn...so made my way to pick the Dogster up. sent him an sms when i was just round the corner, mentioning "i'll be there in 10secs". when i was in front of his house, he thought i meant 10 mins! talk about blur! heheehe.... well, sure was good to have company in the car, talking away, rather than just the sound of engine humming all by myself.
got to office and hardly started on anything, had to rush out to the proton service centre for my appointment. called them on monday for an appointment with the technician for him to diagnose what's the problem with the player and how long would it take if they were to send it back to the vendor. of all things that i heard over the phone, "sorry, our schedule is full today. the earliest is wenesday, 10.45am". yeah right! like as though it's so DAMN TOUGH to just arrange for the technician to have a look at it. well, when i got to the service centre, it was 10 mins past my appointment time. parked my car IN the service area itself as there wasn't any sign nor anyone to direct me where to go. got out of the car and headed to the counter, not giving a damn whether i could park there or not. got to the counter, stood there like a damn fool for 5 mins without anyone approaching to assist. saw the sign that said to get the queue number. inquired from the reception counter and was told to go to the service counter. fine...got there and asked where could i get the queue number. was asked whether i've got an appointment. answered my appointment was at 10.45am, then she told one of the guy at another counter to issue me a queue number. when i got my ticket, it says "4011". looked up at the queue counter and it was at 1011. DAMMIT! what the hell! that's like 3000 numbers away! oh well, since i'm here already, might as well wait a bit. so there i was, continued waiting for the next 10 mins. most ironic thing was in that 10 mins, not a single number moved. it was stuck at 1011!!!! was damn furious by that time that i just told the lady to cancel my appointment. gosh! felt like i was back in some government office or RTM! DEJA VU!! AARRGGGHHHH!!!! left the service centre in a rish and headed to SONY service centre to send my MD car player for them to check on what's the problem. hope it wouldn't cost me a bomb to fix, as the previous owner told me that he was told that it might cost around RM300 plus to fix! damn! that's A LOT of money! think if after the diagnosis, it's still going to cost around RM300 plus to fix, i'll just take the unit back and buy a whole new player. but then again, i'd still have to pay RM20 for service charges. *sigh* more money going out....
got back to the office and started off with clearing out my totally messed up table and drawers. had quite a time feeding the paper shredder. things for worst after lunch. damn!! some problem with what was promised to client for sponsoring the 8 Team. didn't even know that there was supposed to be exposure on the "Jukebox" segment. how the hell is it going to be done??? sales person came looking for me to inquire what's the solutions. just when i caught sight of her approaching, there i go screaming, "AAAARRGGGGHHH!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" she informed me that my boss has been e-mailed about this and awaiting for her feedback. yes yes....feedback...at the end, it'll just be dumped on to me to solve the problem. she called me to her cubicle and asked, "how? it's part of the commitment to client." told her that it was initially supposed to be using the 3G service of video call that telcos are offering, but she knows for a fact that it's not workable coz the feed sucks big time!! and her "solution" was speak to the technical person to get a camera and get my guys to shoot. that means mobilising one more extra person to shoot! oh well, ok...i'll try to get the camera, but then editing? that's another problem...editing and scheduling for it to go on-air! dammit! problems not solved yet!! does it seem like i've got the words "problem solver, miracle maker, magician" written all over my forehead and body?
mood so totally spoiled with all these nonsense.....more head cracking problems with halloween just around the corner, movie premieres, new programmes, press conferences, meet-the-fans sessions, and the list just goes on and on. getting damn fed up! filled up my leave form for next week, but somehow i get a feeling that my boss isn't going to approve it. keeping my fingers cross on that.
how i wish i have someone that i can really talk to and get all these off my mind and chest... :-( weather ain't helping as well....love the rain but somehow, just gets my mind wishing that there's someone that i could cuddle up with...................
