bayar bills

I was at the Citibank Jalan Ampang just now.

Long queues.

It was due to some people who took a little bit longer time to pay not just for 1 card but more.(more cards=more debts=miskin)

As a trained engineer, I was trained to look for solutions for the problems and being a clown I can't help to craft zany ideas. Here are some of the ideas playing in my minds while I was waiting for my turn. Please add in. (By the way I have only 1 card!)


Problem: Long queues at credit card cash payment machines.

Possible solutions:

1. Just like TESCO or other hypermarkets, create Express Lane for customer with 1 card or less!

2. bring that picnic foldable seat along to be used while waiting for your turn.

3. play your mobile phone games.

4. bring along your knitting kit.

5. ....

Do the "goyang gerudi" whilst waiting for your turn. That would be good exercise!!!

Biasalah tuh brother.

Should next time bring a guitar along, can sing for the crowd, and also win a couple of hearts. Hehe. Can also bring along a camera and snap pictures of the people waiting. Good show of Malaysian culture, at the queue. Or, or, you could do this. Bring along a tape recorder and record the sounds, then make a cd. Malaysian tunes... one in a queue, the other in a Chinese restaurant, and Mamak shop at peak time, the bus station, heheheh.

Me back in KL bro. Till later.

5. bitch about ppl's attire kat dlm tu. kadang2 ada yg sgt selekeh.

6. pretend to call your fren and ckp kuat2 yg org depan you lembab buat transaction.

7. kalu semua mesin penuh org, ckp kat guard ada 1 mesin rosak, then bila org kat line tu gi ke mesin lain, u cepat2 curi byr card you.

bley? :)

is..tumpang lalu..nak nyampuk skit..

aku salah sorang yang suka pakai selekeh..bukan nak pegi fashion show, bayar bil jer..takkan nak pakai baju lip-lap kot?

tak suka tengok, jangan pandang..

Iskandar Syah Ismail aka DR Bubbles said...

awan: i am one of many who purposely wear selekeh when paying the bills.:).bahaya berjalan kat situ tu kalo pakai smart-2 nanti kena mugged hilang cerita nak bayar bill.

khairusy: sure will drop by sometime.

atiza: my attire bila nak pi bayar bill macam tauke cina jual ayam. seluar pendek baggy and t-shirt n selipar jepun.
