lunch with the team..


just a couple of funny anecdotes and jokes over an almost 3-hour lunch...

Yakult
i found out today from my boss that a person must drink only one bottle of yakult in a day. so my boss got an "oh-no-i-drink-one-pack-a-day" reaction from me.. which reminded him of his son, joey. just like me, joey drinks all 6 bottles in one sitting. what's worse is that, his parents - my boss and stella, his wife - usually leaves a pack of coke-in-cans in their fridge.. and one time, joey consumed them, all of them, while watching cartoons one morning.

"kakaiba ang taste buds ng batang yun talaga," he remarked.

they learned since then, never to leave taht much cans in the fridge.

Veggie
my boss (again) once encouraged joey (again) to eat this certain veggie.

"joey, you should try this o.. it's good.."
"no, dad."
"cge na, it's good.."
"no, dad. we have different taste buds.."

joey, joey, joey... hehe you sure know how to say "no"..

It All Started With A Baby Pusit
we were supposed to eat at recipe.. i was already salivating for the crispy tilapia!..only to find out that the place is packed already. ngarr. so we just ate at cafe bola.. while indecision on what to order kept us silent for a few moments, my boss came up with these corny (sorry, boss) but bumebenta pa din na mga hirit...
boss (looking at the menu): anong Tagalog ng baby pusit?
staff: ano po..?
boss: pssst!
staff: nyek.... haha
boss: eh anong tawag sa malalaking pusit?
staff: ano po..?
boss: HOY!

haha.. la lang..

me to our manager: eh sir anong tawag kay "baby" t_rla?

..and then they started laughing. mwehehe

Another Baby
"baby" t_rla is one of the major donors of one of our school partners. don't mean to offend but she almost looks like "matutina", no exag. ganun katapang or kasungit ang itsura pero she speaks so softly you can hardly understand everything she says if you're like more than five steps away from her. she has a kind heart - she donates regularly for engineering students' scholarships or just an amount to help them finish their thesis. my manager says she's so simple that she barely wears make up ---- of course that's a joke! she wears soooo much make up that my manager would always say "para siyang laging nasusubsob sa isang balde ng binabad na pulang japanese paper" -or something like that.. (my quoting his word is not as accurate at all, ait?)

well, at least she has a kind heart to help her fellow Filipinos, especially young ones. hehe you really can't have everything, huh.

During Vacation - Happy Endings Chenes
our boss started his exercise program to lose 10 pounds (per his doctor).. he needs it to maintain his heart's good stat as of this writing, since he started feeling something not so good during the last few months of last year.

our manager, started his quit program.. his attempt to quit smoking.. good for him.. he said he had a hard time during his first three days..but he managed. two months na po..! :) (congrats!) he's doing it for his baby girl.. sweeeet! oh and he started biking na.

the other manager attended her cousin's wedding (prepared by the couple themselves)... where can you find a wedding where the parents didn't shed a single tear while the groom and the bride were crying as they read their vows to each other.. and the priest cried too.. hehe ..kewl!

oh, me? i was the official house cleaner, bank manager, papa's nurse, (lovely) daughter (haha), cousin's babysitter, apo, bantay, ninang, sleepyhead, tambay sa bukid habang nagrerelax sa duyan, net surfer and occasional headache.. but i had sooooo much fun. sarap ng manga!
