Before I even return my faulty product which I have bought and collected today, I know that the shop will going to quote on the fine prints and reject the return of a faulty product. It is simple, eveyone wants a profit instead of a loss. Even consumers, we want to be satisfied with the products and services we paid for. If we get a faulty product, it is natural for us to be angry about it. We have exchange our time and money for the product, yet it does not meet our expectations.
To be frank, I can type on this topic for ages. There are many ideas to be put across. No matter you are a buyer or a seller, there are endless arguments to prove that you are 'right' and they are 'wrong'. It does not make sense to me to do this because right and wrong is not even clear in this world. When things does not have a clear definition, it will be just a matter of argument. You'll think that a sound argument will win you the war. However, that might not be true in most cases. Normally, people tend to have difficulties admitting their wrong-doings. I have this problem as well and I am clearly aware of that. That's why I have stopped thinking about issues like this quite some time. It is only I have encountered such dilemma today that I have to re-think about this.
It has been a long day for me today. There are a lot of things outstanding and pending. I guess this is the same no matter where you go. I have tried to give myself some time to learn and read up more. However, interruptions and distractions are all over the place. There is never a good time for you to sit down and work quitely in the environment. As usual, the senior will treat you as their 'machine', asking you to finish up all the work for them. Everywhere will probably be the same. I guess the general working population are mostly unhappy with their jobs. This is probably the fact in working life I guess.
There will be a long long meeting tomorrow. There are much things to prepare, and I have got to stay alert and awake as long as possible. I shall not space out during meeting tomorrow so that I can do my job well after that. (Sounds pretty impossible for me) Then again, I hope that the meeting will end earlier for me to go collect some things and return the faulty product (though I hope an exchange will be possible).
I am reading a book "the night circus" if I remember correctly. It talks about how secrets are meant to be kept by yourself. Letting others know about it will only bring harms. It should never be spoken of, worse still, written down. This lead me to think about my blog. I wonder if the things I typed here is considered secret. Once information is shared, it tends to belong to the public. The words you typed can be used against you once it is publicised. This is especially true on the world wide web itself. I have ran out of count of how many blogger being sued due to their critical blog post. It almost seems like the powerless are never going to be able to occupy anything that really belongs to them. Not even material goods. Yes, you might be using it, but in many aspect, the product doesn't belong to you.
It's almost eleven already. I have been spending far too much time typing this post. This is partly due to the faulty product which cause the letters to come out twice or more when you just click on it once. Such an expensive keyboard, yet such low quality. I wonder if others had the same problem as I do.
Well then, lets's bid goodbye for now and have a good rest before tomorrow.
Weekend is close to our doorsteps now so smile. :)
