Delays

I always thought that i am a patient person.. but i am beginning to wonder whether i am. There are a few things that really annoys me and the most 2 are traffic jams and delays that are beyond my control. What brought up this subject? Well.. i was at the airport yesterday leaving to KK to visit my dad in law. Arrived early to check in because i want to escape from work earlier (took half day off). But when i arrived at the airport, i found out that my flight was delayed 30mins. Which is not bad at all as long as they told you in advance. So waited longer.. then everything went smoothly, board the plane without problem. But guess what?!?! There were further delays.. and inside the plan was really stuffy and hot. I dozed off for a while then when i suddenly woke up and glance at my watch i was shocked that it was an hour delayed!!! This really annoyed me... on top of this, this is MAS! So naturally you expect better service from them than air asia. But i found that the air-hostess are rude .. there is really a significant difference in their hospitality if you compare domestic flights and international flights. In addition, you can also see a distinct difference on how they threat foreigners than Malaysian and this really disgust me! If you are in a service industry, regardless of the origin of your customers, you should treat them the same. I understand first class or business class should have better treatment, this i am in no doubt and have no problem. But at the same economy class?! Sigh...
On top of that.. the guy sat next to me kept on using his mobile phone. When the plane was about to take off, the he was asked to switch off his phone. He pretended too and when the air-hostess walked away he switch on his phone again and did texting! GRR.. i really would love to throw him a punch. Didn't he realised the danger? So ignorant!

But.. i am glad to finally arrive and everything is as smooth as it should be. Had a relaxing night and now just being chill... sometimes we just need a getaway.. to just have a different scenery and do different things. Refocus and recharge....
