time is money

so work finally ended yesterday. i was employed to do security work and got stationed at a hotel doing security checks on everyone entering, exactly the same thing you'd experience when you go to the airport. xray machine, metal detector.

you might not believe this coming from me, but i really do like to see the good side in people. the sad thing is that i've repeatedly come to realise that some people are just well and truly fucked up. and of course, i've encountered a good number of those in my working days.

but let's not talk about the fucked up people, rather those that are strange in their thinking and mindset. actually most of the time, i do not do the actual screening. i 'supervise' those that do the screening, while there's another group of people 'supervising' us.

the entire process takes probably 2 minutes or less, longer if there's a crowd because the xray machine's conveyer belt can't move any faster. but it seems that 2 minutes are all it takes for some people to start complaining.

"wah, if i know so troublesome i won't come here today!" that's the most common thing they say, as though a 2 minute check is like asking them to crawl through mud. there was even this caucasian man with a strong lisp and accent that sprayed spittle all about when he said indignantly "i ssshould have gotten my PA to put me up at sssome other hotel than the ****!"

O RLY?
