A Kick Up the Fat-Green-Pipe's Ass - Update

Remember my post, "A Kick Up the Fat-Green-Pipe's Ass"? Well, my only demand to them is to make good an amount of S$299 for a lapse in porting my mobile number over from a rival telco.

Imagine my elation when the person-in-charge of my case rang me up and said : "Sir, regarding the reimbursement of S$299, FGP will credit the amount into your account and your monthly bills will be debited from the pool. In addition, we will also waive one month's subscription. Is there anything else that we can help you with?"

With a resolution like that, what else can I ask for?

WoooHoooooooo!!!!

2 Tables for Family Dinner


No, there is no family dispute whatsoever which resulted in the family having to occupy 2 tables. It's due to a simple reason that 1 table is unable to fit in 16 pax, inclusive of 5 kids.

The occasion today is to celebrate Hero's 75th Birthday and we had a family dinner in some traditional Chinese Restaurant in town which my sister recommended. Having squeezed in the past during such dinners to much discomfort, she decided that this time around, we'd separate into 2 tables with the siblings and Hero in 1 table, the kids and 3 maids in the other table. This arrangement made perfect sense because the kids are grown-ed up and its really impossible to squeeze in at the 'main' tables anymore. Food wise, we ordered identical fare for both tables.

So as you can derived, we do not practice double-standards in our family. :)

A Kick Up the Fat-Green-Pipe's Ass


Wrote a strong-worded complaint to the Fat-Green-Pipe (FGP) Telco in Singapore few days back and I got a response from them within 24hrs.... goes to show if things do not get moving on the ground level, you MUST escalate it YOURSELF to the HIGHEST LEVEL POSSIBLE...

ICT Day 1.....

Today's the first day of my 2weeks ICT, aka In-Camp Training. For operational and security reasons, I'm unable to disclose too much of what we do in there and other related information. However, I can share that it's pretty much about waiting for instructions to be passed down. :s

This is my 6th out of 10 cycles for ICT and they actually gave me a Good Service Medal for completing 5yrs of ICT! Here's how the medal looks like :



I'd rather they give me some kind of monetary rewards instead.....

Anyone wanna buy my medal? Name your price.....

Phishing Hits SingNet!!!


Not sure if I'm slow or it is really the first time SingNet, a Singapore-based ISP is hit by Phishers.


Just like those Nigierian Scams, we should also NEVER EVER respond to such emails for no decent Service Providers will ask you to go to their site and provide information via email. They will do so via snail mail if need be. Read on for more tips...

What is Phishing?

How to react when you're being phished (not after you've been phished)?
The MOST BASIC action you can take is to IGNORE the phishing email. NEVER EVER believe in its content.

PS : Do not forget to delete the email too.
