choco flattery

One of the regular bankers from SG Office came this morning and happily presented me a box of chocolate "fresh" from the Switzerland v(^o^)v The chocolate is in a very luxurious black box... looks nice and expensive.

The reason for the chocolate giving is that I've been helping him a lot (according to him, but I think it's normal, nothing special) with some personal stuff or professional -- when his secretary's not around. But it's the way he presented the chocolate that amused me:

Him: "Here's your chocolates!"

Me: "Ow, thank you! That's very nice of you..."

Him: "Oh yeah... It's fresh from the Switzerland!"

Me: "Really?"

Him: "Yes, my parents came on Friday and brought it with them."

Me: "Wow..."

Him: "They only brought 2 boxes of that! One box I gave to Seb*****n (CEO of one of the largest bank in Indonesia) and the other one goes for you!"

Me: *smiling sweetly* "Oh wow, I'm flattered!"

Him: "You should be! It's special!" *while pointing at the choco box*

LOL this is the first time a guy is telling me that I should be flattered cause he gives me some chocolates... and he's my boss nonetheless! Hahahahahahahaha But yeah, I'm flattered, since his secretary told me that she didn't even get anything from him on this secretary week :p

Chocolate is always the perfect solution for any girl, don't you think?

my new baby

My new baby, SE C-902... decided to get this instead of that damn C510... A little more expensive but I love it! Mmmm, have to download some games to play with the baby...

stupid sales reply

Thursday, April 16: There's half page color advert in Kompas, promoting the new C510 by Sony Ericsson.

Saturday, April 18: @ the brand store, Senayan City... Looked @ the dummy and was thinking to buy one.

Monday, April 20: Still thinking about it...

Today, April 21: Sacrificed my lunch time, went to PP to buy that phone... finally... And....

@ Sony Ericsson store:

Me: "Excuse me, I want to buy C510."

Sales: "I'm sorry, we don't have it yet."

Me: "What? Isn't it a new model?"

Sales: "Yes, since it's new we don't have it yet."

Me: "But I saw it in Senayan City?"

Sales: "Yes, maybe they have it there, but we don't have it here."

Me, started to get a bit annoyed... Moved to the next store, OKE Shop...

Me: "Excuse me, I want to buy C510."
Sales: "I'm sorry, we don't have it yet."

Me: "But it's new, isn't it?"

Sales: "Yes, because it's very new we don't have the stock yet."

Me: "But the store in Senayan City has it!"

Sales: "Yes, I think only Senayan City has it right now."

Now I'm thinking should I really buy that thing or should I just forget about changing mobile phone if this is the way they sell it. Why put a large advert & spend so much money on promotong something that you don't even have!!!!!
