Been getting a whole lot of spam adds on msn recently. Like once I log in there'd be twenty something rubbish email adds that I had to block/not accept. So darn irritating. Where the hell did all these come from anyway?

Work was tiring today. But I was in a relatively happy mood the entire day cos it was fun working with malini, lam, ah beng and steph. But it ended off with a bad note and totally ruined my almost perfect work day.

As I was removing my name tag, ready to grab my bag and run off happily ever after, this lady at the cake counter motioned for me to serve her. She wanted to order a whole cake, which I thought would be quite a fast process. But I was SO WRONG.

Firstly, she wanted to know if there were any discounts for any credit cards, which there weren't. The only discounts available were for certain cakes like charlotte/tanariva/claira, which I recommended.

Then she asked which are the more popular ones, so I suggested tiramisu/choc amer/mango mousse. Then she said tiramisu was too common and it's something which she and her family have tried it before elsewhere, but I guaranteed her that ours is pretty good and worth a try, which she didn't want to.

Then it seemed she was interested in charlotte, so I explained what it was and blahblahblah and I thought she was gonna take in eventually.

Then suddenly she asked if it is gonna be MESSY. And I really didn't know how to answer that kind of question, it depends on what type of knife you use to cut the cake and whether you got skill or not lah. MESSY?! SHEEsh, yar, it'll be a mess after you eat, digest and shit it all out.

By then I was getting really, annoyed already. She took up fifteen whole minutes of my time already, I could have gotten changed and zao already.

But she was a tough cookie and didn't want to relent and continued her seemingly endless questions and doubts about this and that. She was worried that a size6 would be too big since there is gonna be other food and desserts, so I suggested size5. Then she threw another shock bomb and asked about cheesecake just as I thought she was gonna go with the charlotte. So the entire process repeated.

I was quite ready to stab her in the eye with my pen when I checked my watch and it was pass 25 minutes, then she still asked if I was in a hurry. OF COURSE I cannot say I am right?! Want me to get F-ed by my manager arh? I swear I was extremely extremely patient already.

Then she finally made her decision.

"Okay, I guess I'll take the tiramisu lah. Size 7."

And I wanted to die on the spot.

This really made me super cranky even up to now. It's really exasperating to have such indecisive customers who waste my time like that. And I think I did go the extra mile already loh. I wasn't paid for that extra 30 minutes serving you leh. Let's be realistic lah, time is money right?

GRRR. Hope I won't ever see/serve her again.
She pissed me off BIG TIME man.
