Salesman who sells fridge to Eskimo
Have you heard this before ? “A great salesman is someone who can sell fridge to the Eskimo.”
True salesperson sells something that his client wants and needs, something that will make his/her life more convenient, something that that he can gain from, something he can get pleasures from.
People who sell fridge to Eskimo are not great salesperson, they’re despicable conman. Why in the hell would an Eskimo need a fridge? They have the biggest natural freezer in the world. And it’s free! Imagine an Eskimo with a fridge in this igloo. Where the hell is he going to get electricity for his fridge? How the hell is he gonna push the fridge through the tiny entrance of an igloo?
True salesman don’t mislead just to earn extra moolah, they inform. True salesman will sell something that gives his client more benefits. True salesman don’t treat his client like idiots even though sometimes they are. If they’re idiots, true salesman will show them or sell them something that will make them less an idiot.

2nd week of work in Manila. Rice with crab meat, very rich and I'm sure sinful It sucks! One of the national pasttimes here is Karaoke. Locally known as Videoke. Every pinoy I've met so far love to sing. They acknowledge most of them are not good singers. But they like the idea of friends or families getting together to sing, and to laugh at each other, generally having a good time together. So, in Philipinnes, instead of seeing those kiosks for taking photos or arcade games, you will also see booths for videoke. Choose your songs, slot in coins, and sing away!

Yes, there're people inside working already. I asked the locals, "has this building been issued Certificate Fit for Occupation?". They look puzzled "what's that?". This i...
Man...i had the most unpleasant experience (so far) last night with Bertha. Went to Plaza Singapura for the 1st time with it. Going up the car park, no problem, no need to pay, can go thru the gap. Looking for a parking space, no problem. Went for dinner, buuurpp. Went shopping for toiletries, groceris, see see look look, shiok. Went back to the bike to go home, bike still there, no twisted soul jealous of it, no inadequately-trained car drivers accidentally backed into it or grazed it. Put my stuff in the panniers, put on helmet, start the engine, and vrooom i go. Go down level by level until the exit where the ticket scanner is. Oooppss!! BIIG PROBLEM. There're two lanes. I was too fast going into the right lane. Saw there's no gap between the barrier for bikes to go thru. Look around, saw a sign "Motorcycles keep LEFT"! Dammit, only the left lane has the gap. There's a concrete barrier btwn left and right lane. And I'm on a downslope. Stop the engine, get d...
