still feeling gloomy and pissed this whole day while working. time passes very fast for me because there were many customers. even though i got my salary today, it still doesn't lift my mood a bit. simon did try to cheer me up after he knew what happened. i must admit that i do miss his antics. i enjoyed working whenever he's around. the last few days he wasn't around because he was forced to look after other branches.
a lot of things happened at my workplace today. 2 customers came and complained about our service. almost broke into a big argument, i must say. and then there was a big commotion when a bunch of malay guys (who was supposedly banned from entering the complex, according to a guard) smashed the glass beside the escalator with their helmets. they were caught by plain clothes policemen just after a few minutes. stupid.
all this while i thought she came from a good family, but i was wrong. i didn't know how come i got the urge to ask, but what she told me almost brought me to tears. halfway thru the conversation, i decided to stop asking because even though she doesn't mind, i feel that i couldn't bear to hear it. she told me that her mom practices favouritism towards her kids, and she was the one getting the least love and care. but in the end, all the other children refuses to take care of their mom and left her alone. now she was the one who takes care of her. and what would you feel when your own mom tells you that the food you cook is "like shit" ? she cook for her because she was afraid that she might get hungry and this is the kind of "compliment" she gets? now that she is moving in to stay with her sons at their new house, she doesn't give a damn about her mom anymore. i wonder if this would happen to someone in the future...
on another note, i realised that she never talks about her husband and yet she always talks about her 2 sons. and so i stupidly asked and was told that her husband went overseas to work and abandoned her and her two children. yet she is a successful single parent. she loves her children very much and vice versa. life is so cruel sometimes...
