The call...



...that came 2 years too late


*Phone rings*

Binx: Hello, good afternoon...
Caller: Hello, can I speak to Puan or Cik Binx...
Binx: This is Cik Binx speaking...
Caller: Ah.. Cik Binx, I'm Amir calling from the Property Division
Binx: Yes En Amir, how can I help you?
Caller: Well, I understand that you have applied for a car park space
Caller: FYI, one of our tenant had just moved out of the building
Caller: Hence, we would like of offer you a parking space...
Binx: *snicker* Oh... thank you so much for the kind offer..
Binx: However, I can't accept it...
Caller: But I understand that you have applied for a car park space rite?
Binx: Yes, but I submitted the application 2 years ago...
Binx: And since then I have been waiting for this phone call..
Binx: everytime I call to check my status, I'll always be #12 in line..
Binx: However, you are just 2 years too late...
Caller: Huh?
Binx: I've tendered my resignation and my last day will be next friday!
Caller: Ah.... I see...
Caller: Don't you want the parking space even for your final week?
Binx: Naah.. it's ok.. I don't mind paying RM5.20 for just 7 more days...
Binx: I wished your call would have come sooner
Caller: I'm sorry for the delay ya
Binx: (apa sorry2.. sorry naik lorry laa!) Ah.. it's ok...


It's funny how things work kan...


...You have been waiting to get a parking space inside the building for 2 year! Every single time you call to check the status of your application, you'll be brushed off with a rude remark saying that your application was still queing at #12 in line. You sigh at the thought every time you have to walk a few blocks up the hill at 11 pm during those late night sessions. You cursed the administrations every time you have to take a break before dark during those busy days just to move your car closer to the building, that was parked 5 minutes walk away from the building, just so that you don't have to walk alone in the dark to the scary parking place at 2.30 am after work ends. You mumbled vulgar words every time there were bird poop on your car, the result from having to park at an open car park area, after you have just gave it a good wash the day before...





...And 7 days before you leave the company for good, the call came...!





binx: *sigh*

Just came here by chance from another blog. Funny post. Just look at the bright side - you probably lost weight lugging up the hill whenever you went to work.

Facing a similar problem now because they shifted my office near to our convention centre. Whenever they have seminars, I don't have any place to park.

Ironic.

You should cast your spell and curse those birds to be constipated for a month!

adam:

hey thanks for hopping by...

me loose weight? i'm skinny enuf as it is.. i need to retain/gain weight actually.. hehehe

the problem with the parking mgmt is that they actually give out parking spaces to ppl that knows how to pull strings.. no fair for ppl who actually que like me.. kena tunggu 2 years!


ubisetela:

hahahahha...
ada ka sumpah burung tuh biar constipate.. lagi laa dia bombard my car with dia punya poo poo nanti..


cik_dee:

yeah... he told me that he was just doing his job when i actually yack at him about being 2 years late.. hehehe.. poor guy..

but seriously... 2 years babe..


3six7:

well.. i actually don't mind parking outside the building.. but the thought of ppl that came in later than me but straight away get a parking space just makes me mad... and the bird poop just makes the matter worse.. :)

but for sure ppl like me just cant take the public transport.. masuk office pukul 11 laa jawabnya.. :D
