If you know me well, I have a lot of pet peeves. Normal earthlings call it issues. One of them is hearing the line "I'm busy." I believe that it's just a very lousy alibi. You can say the task or favor given to you is NOT ON YOUR PRIORITIES. I would understand that honesty. But busy? Come on! Everybody is busy!
So there's this supervisor at work who's being featured in our company magazine. Since everybody was BUSY, we didn't have the time to do a one-on-one interview with her. Instead, we sent her a set of questions first week of December. Last week, she still hadn't replied to that email. So we sent her a follow up email. And she promised that she will send it end of business day of Wednesday. Lo and behold, Wednesday was over, then Thursday, then Friday. So, in my sarcastic tone, I sent her this:
Ha ha ha! I know that's so discourteous but the hell I care. Finally, she replied yesterday:
Okay, I am accepting your being terribly sorry. Now let's move on. To my surprise, I saw this on my FB newsfeed hours later:
And it's coming from her. At first, I was shocked. And I knew it was me who she's been pointing at.
It's just funny that some people are still so immature that they express their anger (or whatever emotions their hypothalamus secretes) to Facebook where everybody could read when they only want to tell that to one person only. Whatever happened to notes, letter, SMS, emails, and even a private message on Facebook?
I won't say I'm not affected. I am affected - in a very amusing way. Why? Because I generated an emotion from somebody who is supposed to be so busy! But then again, I would also like to express my views on said post.
First, the term "brain cells" isn't highfalutin. That's so grade 4.
Second, "Sumira ng araw ko kanina" doesn't sound right because a day consists of 24 hours, or from sun up to sun down and by posting it in the afternoon, it seems she has lost track of the time, or the sun for that matter. It should be "sumira ng araw ko ngayon" or simply "sumira ng araw ko."
Third, being intelligent is not a feeling, it is a fact evidenced by IQ tests.
Fourth, it took me a few minutes to understand "dhel." I thought you were just too jologs to spell a computer brand but my God! If you can't properly spell simple Filipino words such as "dahil," get back to Grade 1. Mind you, when I joined the pagbabaybay sa Filipino in first grade, that word wasn't one of them because that's so basic. And it's not highfalutin. Ha ha ha!
Finally, a big thank you. Being called an asshole is music to my ears.
I'm still checking our company's code of conduct to check at what point am I going to submit a feedback for you. In case you don't know, there's what we call feedback where you can complain against me, instead of posting your threat on Facebook where the rest of your 500+ friends are innocent.

Hi Ma’am! We understand that you really are so busy right now but we would like to follow up on this. We are also as busy as you are and I hope you find time in answering the questions that don’t require too much of our brain cells anyway.
Ha ha ha! I know that's so discourteous but the hell I care. Finally, she replied yesterday:
I AM TERRIBLY SORRY FOR THE DELAY. My bad as I missed to answer this immediately after it was sent sometime in December. As we are all aware, everybody was so busy with their own tasks and assigned activities, you too, I believe so. I was supposed to answer these questions at home as I went on leave on January 15th-16th NABU. Yes, I certainly agree that it won’t require too much of our brain cells. However, my son was rushed to the hospital on January 15th which requires our immediate attention and which we believe is more important to attend to than anything else. Again, my apologies…
