YOU no moon, I full moon !

Basically i am a nice guy ( yeah rite ;p ). I love to work and share my knowledges with freshies, as long as you are willing to learn. But if you are a nobody and try to act smart in front of me, then i'll make sure you eat shit without realising it.

It's actually happening between me and a young lady working for my client. Based on the few meetings with her, i can see that she have very little knowledge in VM. Mentang-mentang she is the newly employed Marketing Exec, she use her position and 'knowledge' to ask me to do ridiculous things ( in another word, S-T-U-P-I-D ).

For example, she told me to cut down the cost of the Christmas tree, by taking out all the fairy lights. OMG! A Christmas tree without lighting is basically a DEAD TREE. And she also like to use the word elegant, somber and sophisticated to describe her vision of the tree. Hello, i know what type of image and display is suitable for your company. I did the tree last year, and your principle from Singapore loved it so much !!!

But the thing that really pissed me off is that she called my supplier to check on my actual cost. That is too much ! It shows that she has no business etiquette and respect for business partners. And she cut off 70% of my proposed budget! So, i decided not to take the project. Let her use her smart brain ( if she have any ) to look for another freelancer to do the job. But i doubt she can find any in such a short notice. Too bad, i guess she'll have to learn from her mistake !


You no moon, i full moon. ( 你做初一,我做十五 )
