It’s Getting Hot In Here!

Posted on the August 26th, 2008 under Uncategorized by admin

Our office’s air-conditioning system, again, has broken down so we are sweating heavily since the start of our shift. I can’t understand why one of the air-conditioning units kept breaking down. I think there are only two tower-type air con units that are currently working, both servicing the 100 people on our floor.

How I wish that they put up some electric fans for the meantime. It’s so hard to work when your face kept sweating.

This ain’t right!

What Is This Culturally Monolithic Country Coming To

Video Rental Store | Savannah, GA, USA

Me: “Good evening sir, how may I help you?”

Customer: “I want a good movie.”

Me: “Of course. I recommend Pan’s Labyrinth… it was excellent.”

Coworker: “You are aware that this movie has subtitles.”

Customer: “What the s*** is that?”

Coworker: “The words at the bottom you have to read. It’s in Spanish.”

Customer: “What the f*** is that? We’re in America, we don’t speak Spanish! I want it in American!”

(He storms off and promptly returns with Apocalypto.)

Me: “Sir, you do know this movie has subtitles, too?”

Customer: “What the f***? What is this country coming to? When did we become another country?! I want a g**d*** American movie! Where are the American movies?”

Me: “The store is full of movies made in America.”

(He walks back up about 10 minutes later with Letters From Iwo Jima in his hand.)

Customer: “This is the movie by Clint Eastwood, right?”

Coworker: “Yes, it is.”

Me: “And it’s really good, too.”

Customer: “Clint Eastwood is a real American. He knows what I like!”

(I give a look to my coworker who doesn’t say anything this time, and we rent him the movie. Too bad Letters From Iwo Jima is all in Japanese with English subtitles.)
