Parents

 As a cashier, I get to see lots of people. Some good things that I observed. When a son came with his dad to pay the bill, the dad teaches his son what to do with the app vouchers and payments. When a daughter accompanied the dad, the daughter teaches the dad how to use the app vouchers. 

What warms me was a woman who always brought his age old father to buy ice-cream. The dad will want to eat it on the spot after payment, then after a bite, the daughter will hold his hand and lead him out of the store. The dad can still walk but very slowly. The ice-cream she bought was on sale though. At 9.90 for 3. Haagen Dazs.

Some kids say all kinds of stories to persuade the parents to buy snacks for them. Reasonably saying why they needed the snacks. Haha. Listen to yourself! as if it is reasonable but to the adults, we all know. Still, they were so cute. What you did to get what you want?

Some kids were really still in their parents arm. Just look at you getting their payments done with their big innocent eyes. Why are babies so cute?

Some real cool customer really cool. When asked if they wanted to buy a donation package, they just say ok. Then paid for it without hesitating. Some hesitate but believed in doing good. Some don’t. Some hesitate forever like me. To buy or not to buy. Wait till one day I rich bah. Some wants to but don’t have enough money or points. I guess they wanted to do good too. Most good people were not rich too. Probably gave too much. You have 100, you gave 90… She spent less than the packages compared to the donation. Not for me to judge and whatever reason to give or not, it is up to them since it is their money. Not their fault if they cannot donate. They might have kids to raise and old parents to take care. They can take care of themselves already better than most.

Amount

 The amount I spent on learning before applying actually costed me more money until I do enough work. Still learning process is still needed even while working.  Doing things subconsciously can make the easiest problem complicated. Could be your old habits or subconscious typing or the auto correction? hm.. This one is more like my habit. It is a hard to catch error when we did like that. I was thinking what goes wrong and no matter what I did, it would not return my desired results. Turned the code that I wrote previously and just a line only which I overlooked while checking, was blocking the rest of the changes… Dangerous code is the counter code that you wrote to right a wrong or blocking the wrong from working. That’s normally a temporary solution but the solution turned out to be preventing me doing other works… sigh… 😮‍💨  Today’s a lucky day and I found it while doing another part… so it is good not to always focus on one problem. The other problem could be the c...

Tools and Work

 Things I bought for work. Another addition of $18.60 to the lost count of things that I bought for work. USB C to HDMI adapter has ARRIVED. Previously, I bought a hoco. and it is working fine still but too bad Shopee and Lazada don’t have them. I bought UGREEN then. I am attracted to name with colours on it. Hehe. Need one at the office so that I have less thing to carry back and fro of home. I bought another ergonomic mouse. My hand could go numb from using the mouse. Actually I have hand numb issue since young. Writing makes my hand numb. Not sure if that is normal but I do practice. I am not entirely sure if that is right hand only. When I used my left, I can write for a long long time even though the hand writing looks bad.  Bought soldering iron and tools set. Bought HDMI to mini port display x 3. One not working anymore and that’s why I bought another 2 (UGREEN $7.48 and IVANKY) because the working laptop needed it to display on another monitor. Bought a portable monito...

hmmmm

Keyboard warrior's keyboard checked. Another Jean checked. It is to make up for the pants that I spoiled two days ago. Just when I arrived at the office, I sat on a chair whereby the surface is grid-like and the  buttoned-up fake pocket button on the right side got plucked off leaving a hole a bit on the upper side of the bum. There is a flap that was together with the button. It just covers the hole a bit. I am not sure if the slit that the button goes through was big enough to see through. I tried to ensure my shirt was over the hole though at least to cover while I was not seated. It wasn't a good time. I was wondering should I just walk off to buy another pants but decided not to because we were busy. That went on for the rest of the day. A day to remember. The pants lasted 10 years. I bought it during my first job at 2011. Anyway, it was a bit tight around the waist so shouldn't have worn it at all. Although I am a bit heavier, my waist is a bit off only. I wonder if m...
