seriously tuckered out

It was a tiring day and frustrating day.
It all started yesterday. I sent my mobile for repair during lunch, and was told to come back later, after work I went, waited and waited… and they told me, he didn’t have a particular part with him, so I had to resent to them the next day (today).
So I did exactly THAT during lunch hour and I told them specifically I am collecting it at 5.30pm. guess what, I was there at 5.40, it is not done yet, asked me to wait another 5 mins, but I think his 5 is more like 20 or even more. I didnt get off work early for nothing, arghhh. And I seriously doubt he had started any work on it. Then I told them I will come back later since I had to go to Sg Wang. Not shopping, mind you. I had to do all these and I was hungry and in my heart I just want to rush back to home sweet home for my daily doses of kisses and hugs from my nieces and playing with them and my pet pup and of cz, dinner.
Argh… at the other errand I had to do, employee wasn’t being very helpful. Typical. But nice enough to tell me to head to Times Sq. I wanted to go home then. Suprisingly I didnt and walked over to Times Sq, and finally settled my task. Malek, the assistant was very helpful, he went thru the explaining to me how the whole process is like, what I can do etc. Now I just gotta wait for 5 + 5 days.
And then I headed back to the stupid-under staff kiosk to get my mobile. Not very under staff but more like a situation of whenever someone (or me) ask for A, A will direct to B, or when asking C, he will tell you to go to D. hello, why did you even bother going to work, when you cant even attend to your customer’s query. Anyway, I was there. And it wasn’t fixed yet. Again, I think he had to have me standing there to stare at him while he work on it. I left it there like 7 friggin hours. Which later, it took you less than half to repair. Which come to think about the whole hassle I went thru, I didn’t have fix it cz my bro got a new one, so he had an extra phone, meaning I get to inherit it. Jeff, next time pls tell me la when u wanna buy new phone or new car or new wateva.
In the end, it was fixed. Everyone lived happily ever after, and I wont go to that kiosk again, or see that guy named Flory, or that Ah Beng or was it Yung and that sweaty guy, whatever his name -who fixed it. I realize I actually love my mobile. I didn’t plan on getting a new one until like another year or 2.
At home =) =) =)
Had my dinner and laze around, and the rest of the evening at OT...
