grrrr

i've been at the Science & Engineering Campus waiting for the poster to be printed... and i saw it lying below the printer ready to be collected... the guy in-charge of the print-collection was 15mins late for his after-lunch shift... i don't mind. but he then clumsily flinged the 3 printed posters (with mine sandwiched in between) and hit the phamplet stand and tore all 3 posters on the top, crumpling them in the process as well. i was so annoyed. i waited for almost 2 hours to pick them up... i wasn't going to pick up a ripped poster after having paid ?25...

i wonder if he knows how much effort is put into making these posters... he may not be having a great day but these are large sheets of A0 paper which require care in handling. people need to be more dedicated to their jobs and stop wasting everyone's time and the poor trees.

[quite funny... the dynamic ip-address here at KB changes from neeps to tatties to sausages to beans... i wonder if haggis will be next?!]

he had no choice but to reprint it =cP... i told him almost in the face and the others waiting for his service how annoying it was to wait for so long then to watch him tear it so carelessly. i think he felt a little guilty because he called up the copy-office to tell them to re-send the print-job while i was at the copy-office trying to request the re-send and he tried to be careful with the 2nd print although he crushed another person's poster too! it's really heart-wrenching to see that... i wonder what's wrong with him?!

i wasted so much time today -- arrrgh.
