Useless Contractor, Languages and Rain
Gosh I'm tired.. tired of arguing with people who test my IQ and patience levels...
. The contractor next door is one lazy ass!!
After telling him off about the cables that are in our house, he proceeded to call the so called "tnb licensed" contractor and to my 'horror'.. It was yet another lazy ass
God help me deal with stupids.
It was then I realized how true this saying is...
It was then I realized how true this saying is...
Birds of a Feather, Flock Together
Con: Oh cannot move it. must be like this. TNB guidelines say must be like this.. you see that green house that side..
Me: Eh, that green house, his cable is in HIS house. Not his neighbours house. This one is in MY house. that also don't understand ah????
[continues to argue with me till I say]
"You very clever, come and do this bullshit while I am not home, now I can and will charge you for BREAKING AND ENTERING PRIVATE PROPERTY"
his face when I said that.....
The "Tnb licensed contractor" says he wants to talk to my husband. okay cool.. let me get him on the line for you...
My husband, being an IT guy, already checked out the necessary stuff on the TNB website and even read their manuals.
He gave them hell.
The two of them then start speaking in mandarin, basically along the lines of "her husband don't let us put in his house, talk to her la nevermind la we just say if tnb come check then all of them kena, scare her abit"
To which I answered back in Mandarin, "Don't think just because I always speak English to you, and bahasa to your workers, that I cannot speak or understand Mandarin. My mother is Chinese. Now you want to call TNB call la.. they've come to check many times during power outage...and nothing has been moved since the house was built.. you don't call, I will."
Faces dropped.
Impressed? or "Shit kena con by this girl already"
Idiots.
Few hours later, I'm not sure who he was, but this 50 something year old man walks in and sees the cable.. then goes.....
Ani kuan beh sai! pang lai bin la.. chi leh salah liao
(like this cannot, put inside la, like this wrong already)
(they didn't see me sitting at the computer and laughing quietly to myself as I watched the colour drain from both their faces as the Older man said this)
Then the bloody contractor says "you see they put the cable there mah"
Older man "That one is aircon copper wire la that also you don't know meh"
[laughs like mad again]
Plus my copper wire in MY house la retard.
The older man was clearly pissed off, he might have been the "tnb licensed contractor" punya boss... imagine what would have happened to his license if this arse just left this cable as it is.. and we made a complaint against him...
Gone I tell you..
Gone.
Gone I tell you..
Gone.
Older man walks angrily to his car, contractor follows and tries to talk to him, older man starts engine, door still open, drives away and slams car door basically telling the contractor, Do your work properly and dont waste my bloody time just because the both of you are lazy pricks.
Let's see the outcome after a few days.. but based on my Facebook post about this.. Majority of my peeps say CUT IT OFF
I still don't understand this mentality of
"Oh we just speak our language so others wont understand that we're talking bad about them"..
"Oh we just speak our language so others wont understand that we're talking bad about them"..
We live in a multi racial country, with so many languages flying around us every day... what makes you think that someone, just because that person doesn't look like you, can't speak your language?
Then I heard them saying Chinese people easier to deal with
[you lousy contractor looking for easy way to make money and cheat your fellow Chinese client!!!]
Eh, tak sedar diri ah.. your Indonesian workers are more pleasant and have more manners than you.
They say Selamat pagi kak!! anak kakak tidur lagi ya? kalau gitu nanti dulu baru start drill.. udah bangun nanti kakak bagitau ya...
sigh well enough of negativity for one day...
The rain this morning was fantastic!
It's nice and cold now too...
Sitting here, with my hot milo without condensed milk staring at the laundry I have yet to fold...
Oh well, better get that over and done with
