A VERY POLITE AGENT: Hello, can i speak to LKN?

A VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON (Who is not LKN, but answered the phone): Hello, who are you?

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: I’m Maisie, can i speak to LKN?

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: WHO?! You find him for what?

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: I need to ask him some questions.

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: So, you find him for what?

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: *Explains the whole reason*

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: Okay, then i sell 500 flats you want?

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: 500? You? ( I know he’s fooling me, plus i know he’s not the owner of that flat. So i played along with him. )

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: Ya, you want? 500!

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: Yeah sure. Can you gimme your contact number so i can inform my manager.

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: (Somehow taken aback.) Er no luh. Don’t want sell. You got money buy meh.

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: Not me, but the company’s customers. How about you rent one of your rooms?

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: Okay. $5000 per room.

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: (Getting very pek chek already.) Err sure, i will still need your contact number to inform my manager about your expecting rental price.

THE VERY KPO & IRRITATING PERSON: $3000 also can la.

THE VERY POLITE AGENT: Yeah can can, IF YOU’RE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS, can i have your contact number?

Soon after, he abruptly end the conversion and hangs up. Right after that, I SCOLDED HIM. Of cos he can’t hear luh. But UGH!! I talk for so long and he still didn’t let me talk to the owner. Sometimes, this kind of person should be bashed up. Seriously, he’s the worst of all. I’ve met people who say nasty things to me and stuff, but not WASTING MY TIME OMG! Then, i didn’t just cancel LKN, i put there “I’LL NEVER GIVE UP. IF I DON’T GET TO TALK TO HIM PERSONALLY, I MAKE SURE I DO!”

Chinese ah Chinese. The worst manners of all races. Yes some are really nice. To rank them, Chinese may be the top. But as for the worst, CHINESE ARE DEFINITELY THE TOP! And i hate to say my name over the phone. Most of them can’t identify my name. I don’t wanna use a fake name too. Argh, not that i hate my name. I love it because it’s quite unique in Singapore. But sometimes, unique in a disadvantage way. Oh well, who ask my name so DIFFERENT. :) Anyway, i still thank God for giving me so many polite customers and good commission. Nevermind if those super KPO ones make me pek chek, because if there’re those super nice ones, there’re also those super qian bian ones.

This just brings me back to my previous job. Door-to-door was worse. I’m grateful that i took up this job because at least i do not need to face them directly. And those super nice ones motivated me too :) Father, let me not be distracted and demoralised by those stupid ones. 好人一定会有好报的! :)

Father, i really pray that You’ll bless those super nice ones. At least they didn’t judge one by his/her voice. And they deserve Your blessings. As for those qian bian ones, i wanna learn to have mercy on them. To think of You, the company and myself before saying any nasty things to them. I remember another guy reprimanding me for not doing my homework and calling him. Then i felt quite insulted but also reflect upon myself. Yes, i’m not suppose to do any homework in the 1st place. But if i want to humble myself down, then i need to accept others’ feedback and work hard to improve myself. So Father, wo kao ni le. Give me the courage and humility. I want people to know i can take those feedback well because I’m a Christian, not just a polite salesperson. :) Maisie have mercy, JIA YOU JIA YOU JIA YOU!!
