Lack Of Creativity
Basically, I can't tolerate the latest McDelivery ad. It's a crappy, lame attempt of an advertisement riding on the coat-tails of the hype of Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" and Kanye West's "Stronger". Are creative juices running out? With the best advertisements of 2007 being advertised recently for their annual competition, this ad seem like a corny joke. Then again, McDelivery's advertisement have always been one of the most artificial to me. If anyone can remember the time when they held their weekly contest to give away something to the winners, the winners all seem to have scripts to follow, and some of them even try their hand at acting and having fake accents.
Stick to kids just enjoying your fries.

Work's Little Fiesty Ball Of Entertainment
As suddenly as she came, she had to go. Moshi, Chomel, Xiao Mao Mi , or whatever pet names we had for her, this kitty was a constant fuzzy ball of entertainment when life @ the outlet got drabby. It started out with a kitten just calling out for some food, hiding in one of the potted plants, mewing for attention.
A little apprehensive of humans, she backed off whenever we came near, or sometimes scuttle away just at the sight of certain people. Soon, she got used to us and started playing catch whenever we went out to take an order, or serve them up. She would hide in a corner and run up to us just to get her claws on our ankles and ran away when she thought that we were going to turn around and get her. She would also try to catch our fingers from behind the glass door, stretching her paw through the tiny gap, making us laugh.
F-I-E-R-C-E!
Then she got so used to human contact that she begged for food and attention from some of our customers, some of which weren't cat-friendly. She would also try to get into the cafe, but we set boundaries (albeit with a bit of chemical help) and she knew her place. It wasn't always fun and games with her. She tormented our resident gardener, who wanted to murder her whenever she started digging in the beds of freshly planted flowers. Then the day came when an intolerable bitch decided to complain about everything but the kitchen sink, and so our operations manager got wind of kitty and told us to get rid of her.
After days of trying to find a home for her among our friends, it was down to relocating her, or sending her to the SPCA. But as luck, and a few days of procrastination, would have it, a family comes by and falls in love with her, just in time to bring her home and save her from a horrible end.
Lucky Cat.

I Hope You Choke On It
"Excuse me, why does my ice cream have ice in it?"
Now if you're in a restaurant/cafe not owned by me, you could expect the usual "oh... do u want me to change it for you?" routine. But if you were in one that I own, please expect this response:
"Well, u see, ice cream has to sit and wait in a freezer till a dumb arse, like you, decides to have a banana split, and only until then does it get scooped up and served on a banana boat, melting in the heat of the cafe. So unless you want your banana swimming in 3 different flavoured creams, you should expect a bit of ice in your bloody ice cream as the bloody thing is part liquid! Now eat that shit and stop complaining cos you ain't gonna get another split after eating half of the first one."
Unless there's a big CUBE of ice in ur ice cream, don't ask me, or any service staff, a stupid question like that. No one will know how to answer that dumb question of yours and we all know u're just a bloody greedy arse hoping to get a discount out of the whole thing.
I hope u enjoyed your split and that ur arse will after all the curses we've thrown at you. Or else, choke on ur next one!
