Life's Like That : It's All About Marketing

The buzz word in today's business world is MARKETING. However, most people often ask for a simple explanation of "Marketing."

Here it is:

You're a woman and you see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and say, "I'm fantastic in bed."
That's Direct Marketing.

You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy. One of our friends goes up to him and pointing at you says, "She's fantastic in bed."
That's Advertising.

You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed."
That's Telemarketing.

You're at a party and see a handsome guy. You get up and straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say, "May I," and reach up to straighten his tie, brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed."
That's Public Relations.

You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He walks up to you and says, "I hear you're fantastic in bed."
That's Brand Recognition.

You're at a party and see a handsome guy. You talk him into going home with your friend.
That's a Sales Rep.

Your friend can't satisfy him so he calls you.
That's Tech Support.

You're on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you're passing. So you climb onto the roof of one situated toward the center and shout at the top of your lungs, "I'm fantastic in bed!"
That's Junk Mail.

Joke Of The Day : Feel Like A Woman

A Boeing jet, flying at 35000 feet over the Atlantic runs into a terrible storm. Thunder, lightening and high winds toss the big plane around the sky. The passengers are scared!! One woman in particular is about the lose it. Screaming, she stands up in the front of the plane shouting "I'm too young to die!" Then she yells, "well if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable. In my entire life, no one has ever made me really feel like a woman! Well, I've had it!! Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN??"

"I can make you feel like a woman," he said. He's gorgeous. Tall, built, black hair and blue eyes, he slowly starts to walk up the isle, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time. The woman is breathing heavily in anticipation as the strange man approaches. He removes his shirt, muscle ripple across his chest and extends the shirt to the trembling woman and whispers...

Joke Of The Day : Golf course or Intercourse?

Four married guys go golfing. During the 4th hole the following conversation began:

First Guy: "You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out golfing this weekend. My wife made me promise that'll paint every room in the house next weekend."

Second Guy: "That's nothing. My wife made me promise that I'd build her a new deck for the pool."

Third Guy: "Man, you both have it easy! My wife made me promise that I'd rebuilt the entire kitchen for her next weekend."

After the three men have taken their goes, they realise that the fourth guy has not said a word. "So what's the deal? What did you have to promise to do to be able to come golfing this weekend?

Fourth Guy: "I just set my alarm for 5:30am. After the alarm wakes me up, I shut it off, give the wife a nudge and ask: "Golf Course or Intercourse?" And she says, "Don't forget to wear your sweater."

Life's Like That : Work Till Wee Hours

Being single, I don't mind putting up extra hours or sometimes, working till wee hours just to get things done, rushing for deadlines. In the course of doing so, I've often skipped my lunch and having dinner late at night, morning, 12+, bath and head straight to bed ... Zzzzz. This repeats the next day.

At times, it makes me wonder. Is it worth forcing myself this way?? Working like a cow for the company with dirt low pay. If I got sick, in return, will my boss do the same, taking good care of me? What if I'm really sick for a few months. Will they sack me and hire a new person instead? Most important of all, will other things in life matter, if I don't have health? If I have a married life, that will be even worse. Not being able to reach home on time, having dinner with loved ones. No time to spare for the kid/s. That's where priority kicks in.

A big-game hunter went on safari with his wife and mother-in-law. One evening, while still deep in the jungle, the Mrs awoke to find her mother gone. Rushing to her husband, she insisted on them both trying to find her mother.

The wife cried, "What are we going to do?"
"Nothing," said the hunter husband. "The lion got himself into this mess, let him get himself out of it."

The kindergarten class had a homework assignment to find out about something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time came for the little kids to give their reports, the teacher was calling on them one at a time. She was reluctant to call upon little Jony, knowing that he sometimes could be a bit crude. But eventually his turn came.

Little Jony walked up to the front of the class, and with a piece of chalk, made a small white dot on the blackboard, then sat back down. Well the teacher couldn't figure out what Jony had in mind for his report on something exciting, so she asked him just what that was.

"It's a period," reported Jony.
"Well I can see that," she said. "But what is so exciting about a period."
"Damned if I know," said Jony, "but this morning my sister said she missed one. Then Daddy had a heart attack, Mummy fainted and the man next door shot himself."

Life's Like That : Beauty Or Safety?

Once I asked a colleague, isn't she worried carrying the bag on her back, walking on the street since there were lots of snatch theft reported.

Her answer was no. I was dumbfounded. She said it doesn't look nice if it's not on the back. I guess she prefer to fall to the ground, dragged few meters away by a thief on a motorbike, bleeding to death, with broken neck. Thinking of this really gives me creeps. I told her to walked inside while I walked outside. Atleast, the chance of her bag being snatched is reduced.

Ladies out there, which is more important to you? Beauty or Safety?

Guys out there, if your loved one put beauty ahead of safety similar like above case, what will you do huh?

Work Of The Day : Increment $$$

Last week, during lunch, my colleagues were talking about the increment which everyone will be getting end of this month. Could it be another false alarm? This has happened few times. At previous company dinner function, a director announced there will be bonus for everyone. Since it has been few years without bonus, everyone was cheering and clapping. It gets even louder when he gave an assurance, if there's none, he will resign. When the day finally arrived, it was total dissapointment. Guess what? The director is still around until today.

So until and unless my pay slip is out, I will hold back my joy. Let those ladies smile and feels happy about it. I was wondering what kind of reaction will I be seing end of the month if the management say "NO INCREMENT"? Perhaps below pic says it all :D

There are few browser available out there if you feel like switching. Take a look at :

Opera

There's no such thing as '100% perfect, flawless softwares' in this world. Nevertheless, if you can find better security in them, why stuck to the existing browser? Anyone knows of other browser available out there?

Joke Of The Day : A**hole In Charge

One day the different parts of the body were having an argument to see which should be in charge. The brain said "I do all the thinking so I'm the most important and I should be in charge."

The eyes said "I see everything and let the rest of you know where we are, so I'm the most important and I should be in charge."

The hands said "Without me we wouldn't be able to pick anything up or move anything. So I'm the most important and I should be in charge."

The stomach said "I turn the food we eat into energy for the rest of you. Without me, we'd starve. So I'm the most important and I should be in charge."

The legs said "Without me we wouldn't be able to move anywhere. So I'm the most important and I should be in charge."

Then the rectum said "I think I should be in charge."

All the rest of the parts said "YOU?!? You don't do anything! You're not important! You can't be in charge." So the rectum closed up. After a few days, the legs were all wobbly, the stomach was all queasy, the hands were all shaky, the eyes were all watery, and the brain was all cloudy. They all agreed that they couldn't take any more of this and agreed to put the rectum in charge.

Today's lesson: You don't have to be the most important to be in charge, just an a**hole.

Got an assistant at work since last week. I was thinking, what has gone into my boss head for hiring someone who has no related working experience to assist me? A frequent blog reader of my and also my best net friend told me to give him a chance. So I did and I've no regret.

His working attitude - good

So far so good. Hopefully he will keep it up or better still, change it from 'good' to 'exceptional'.

Life's Like That : Learnt Your Lesson?

A robbery case was reported yesterday. According to the source, the steel factory has been robbed few times prior to this incident and yet, very little effort has been done by the management to beef up the security, like installing alarm system and CCTV. Sounds fishy, don't you think so? Thieves who know how to operate heavy machinery to load the steels. Obviously they knew CCTV system not installed. Hmm... reminds me of a case where an employer fake an incident to claim insurance money.

Now if you got bitten by a dog, what lesson do you learnt? The point is, you will certainly be extra careful next time and take necessary precaution, wouldn't you?

Soon he approached with a tape measure, acquired the width, and exclaimed, "It IS as big as the gas grill!"

Later that night when they were in bed, the husband started making moves on his wife. She just turned away. "C'mon, honey," he said, "what's wrong?" Her cold reply was, "I'm not firing up this grill for just one little weiner!"

The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the man has ever experienced. After a few strokes the client asks in garbled speech. "And what if I swallow it?"

"No problem," says the barber. "Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does."

Work Of The Day : Middle Man

Ever get caught in the middle between two parties? Be it work or a relationship.

I've these vendors of different products. Each has their own views and expertise. If these two "dunggu's" don't work together, the whole company infrastructure will not work. Vendor (A), like to do last minutes changes. Vendor (B) on the other hand, willing to go beyond expectation to ensure his customer needs is fulfilled. Anyway, due to conflict of ideas, each is claiming their methods of implementation is right and the other party method will not work. Me on the other hand, stuck in the middle and it's just few more hours left before the project go live. I've listened to both side stories. Both explanation sounds logical. Called up (A) to explain (B) point of view and vice versa. It's like driving on a roundabout going nowhere!

Getting tired on all these. Anger starts to kicks in (usually I don't let anger takes control of me. I'm an extremely nice person to deal with, cool, tolerant, understanding... woahhh, I'm floating on air laa...) Made them liase with each other so that they can come to an understanding. Alas, things get worst. Heated argument between both. I'm running out of time and these professionals are behaving like babies.

Late in the evening, (A) called to informed he admitted the error at his side and agreed with (B) method. FINALLY!! Thank you god for listening to my prayer. But the error cannot be corrected overnight. At the end, the implementation have to be postponed. I will have a lot to explain to my boss. It's hard to accept (A) lame error after all the informations has been given in advance. It's really frustrating working with such vendor.

Then, you have to go out back an pull the tooth of a dog that has a tooth ache. After you are through with that, you must go over to that sweet sexy lady and make love to her. If you do all of these things you can have every dollar in the jar."

The man says "well I don't know." So the man continues to order his drinks. When he go to his 36th drink he decided it was about that time. He was going to win that money. So he walked over to the man and knocked him out in one punch just like the bartender had said.

Then he went out back with the dog.... and all you hear is this loud angry dog growls and barks and the man walks back into the bar. The bartender looks at him. The mans shirt was all torn and bloody.

Next thing the man says is "Ok so where is that sweet sexy lady who needs her tooth pulled"?

(c) Photostat machine. Stood a guy with multiple documents in hand. Ermm.. correction, looks like tons of documents. "Wow! A lot ah", say me. He mumble back with black sour face (as if someone has poke his butt with a log). Atleast say "please come back later". Helloo... I didn't poke your butt right? It's like a disease, when you feel awful, you made others feel the same. There goes my morning.

(d) I was so busy rushing for things suddenly the phone rang. "Hello, something wrong with my pc! Nothing on the screen la!", - user. "Did you switch on the monitor power ka?", say me. "Ohh yeah ah, sorry ah!" - user. I guess this fellow forget to wear his underwear to office.

(e) Being accused by a dumb ass person of being 'hanky panky' when trying to explain why a particular project encountered some problems. Smart asshole who just sit and wait for things to happened, simply throw up words at people who's trying to get things done for them. Ruthless, heartless ASSHOLE!!!

Joke Of The Day : Men & Their Son

Four men went golfing one day. Three of them headed to the first tee and the fourth went into the clubhouse to take care of the bill. The three men started talking, bragging about their sons. The first man told the others, "My son is a homebuilder and he is so successful that he gave a friend a new home for free."

The second man said, "My son was a car salesman and now he owns a multi-line dealership. He's so successful that he gave a friend a new Mercedes, fully loaded."

The third man, not wanting to be outdone, bragged, "My son is a stockbroker and he's doing so well that he gave his friend an entire stock portfolio."

The fourth man joined them on the tee after a few minutes of taking care of business. The first man mentioned, "We are just talking about our sons. How is yours doing?"

The fourth man replied, "Well, my son is gay and dances in a gay bar. I'm not totally thrilled about the dancing job, but he must be doing good. His last three boyfriends gave him a house, a brand new Mercedes, and a stock portfolio."

Joke Of The Day : Sex Lives

Three women were sitting around throwing back a few drinks and talking about their sex lives.

Karen said, "I call my husband the dentist because nobody can drill like he does."

Joanne giggled and confessed, "I call my husband the miner because of his incredible shaft."

Kathy quietly sipped her whiskey until Joanne finally asked, "Well, what do you call your boyfriend?"

Kathy frowned and said, "The postman." "Why the postman?" asked Joanne. "Because, he always delivers late and half the time it's in the wrong box."

Life's Like That : Be Positive

Imagine this... Monday morning, Ms. A comes to work with a scowl face. Throw her keys on the table. Irritated with the piles of work, mumbling and start complaining to her neighbour. Everything doesn't seems to be right for her the whole morning. A poor young man even got scolded for no apparent reason. We heard him said "Naaaaaaa" without showing his middle finger. On being asked, he said "NA = Negative Attitude".

On the other hand, Ms. B, comes in with a happy cheering face. Greeting anyone who bump into her. Seing Ms. B, makes me feel good too. Sort like a reflection.

This is all about attitude. Is it that difficult to change our attitude? How do we manage this change after 20,30 or 40 years we have been used to it? What is required? Persistent determination? Strong discipline?

Read one book (can't remember the title), points out the differences of "Positive and Negative Attitude".

The person with negative attitude dwells on problems.
The person with positive attitude concerntrates on solutions.

The person with negative attitude finds fault with others.
The person with positive attitude looks for the good in others.

The person with the negative attitude focuses on what's missing.
The person with the positive attitude counts his or her blessings.

The person with the negative attitude sees limitations.
The person with the positive attitude sees posibilities.

Now don't you think "Change in Attitude" is good, provided we are changing for good course? Whether we are happy or not, depends very much on our attitude in life. If we are positive, we will be happy. But if we are negative, we are not only feel miserable but we also make those around us feels the blues too.

Joke Of The Day : Monks

Twelve monks were about to be ordained. The final test was for them to line up in a straight row, totally nude, in a garden while a sexy and beautiful big breasted nude model danced before them. Each monk had a small bell attached to his penis and they were told that anyone whose bell rang when she danced in front of them would not be ordained because he had not reached a state of spiritual purity.

The beautiful model danced before the first monk candidate, with no reaction. She proceeded down the line with the same response from all the monks until she got to the final monk. As she danced, his bell began to ring so loudly that it flew off and fell clattering to the ground.

Embarrassed, he took a few steps forward and bent over to pick up the bell and then, all the other bells started to ring..........

Joke Of The Day : Milk Man

This women goes into labor. They rush to the hospital. When they are there, the doctor comes in and tells the husband about the new invention they have. He says, "This machine right here makes it easier for the women to have a kid. You strap this to your wrist and the father of the child will feel the pain. Want to give it a try?"

"Sure, why not."

So they strap it to his wrist.

"We are going to turn it up to 30% to begin with."

So they do and the guy feels nothing so they turn it up to 50%. He still can't feel anything so they turn it up to 75%. The guy still feels nothing so they turn it all the way up. The lady has the kid.

"Man, I didn't feel a thing," said the guy.

"Ya, me either." Said the wife.

Later that day the wife and husband go home. When they get home, they find the milk man dead on the back porch.

Life's Like That : Worst Ever Accident

Remember the worst ever accident you had?

Still remember very clearly, 3 years back, it was National Day. I was driving back home from work. Yup! I'm a hard working employee. Got awarded for best employee of the year. OK ok, I exaggerated that one. About to reach the cross junction, the traffic light turned green. Turned right without braking. Out of no where, this Kancil was beating the red light speeding right towards me. We had head on collision. The impact was so great that my head knocked on the steering wheel. For a moment there, everything turned blur. I felt giddy. Regained my consciousness after a while. Glad I'm still breathing, hands and legs are fine. No bleeding, another miracle. Just bruise on the head and abdomen pain. My poor Wira. Gone case -> head lights, signal , radiator, air cond & radiator fans, front skirting, bumper, body, etc. Amazingly, in less than 10 minutes, 3 tow truck operators are already at the scene approaching me and the other party. The most frustrating part, were told to claim under own insurance after lodging a report. There goes my 55% NCB.

Settled the thing and gone back home. Made me think how lucky I am that day. Thank god it's that Kancil. What if it's a heavy vehicle?

Perhaps, there is a reason.
Perhaps, it's not my time yet.
Perhaps, I've still got alot I've yet to accomplished or not done yet.
Perhaps...

Joke Of The Day : Two Assholes

Bubba died in a fire and was burned pretty bad. The morgue needed someone to identify the body, so his two best friends, Daryl and Gomer, were called for. Daryl went in and the mortician pulled back the sheet. Daryl looked and said, "Yup, he's burnt pretty bad. Roll him over." So the mortician rolled him over and Daryl looked and said, "Nope, ain't Bubba."

The mortician thought that was rather strange and he was pretty sure of the body's identity. Gomer was then brought in to identify the body. Gomer took a look at him and said, "Yup, he's burnt real bad. Roll him over." The mortician rolled him over and Gomer looked down and said, "Nope, ain't Bubba." The mortician asked, "How can you tell?"

Gomer said, "Well, Bubba had two assholes."

"What? He had two assholes?" asked the mortician.

"Yup, everyone knew about it, too. Every time we went to town, folks would say, "Here comes Bubba with them two assholes."

Joke Of The Day : School Bag

An airplane was about to crash; there were 5 passengers on board but only 4 parachutes. The 1st passenger said, "I am Kobe Bryant, the best NBA basketball player, the Lakers need me, I can't afford to die." So he took the 1st pack and left the plane.

The 2nd passenger, Hillary Clinton said, "I am the wife of the former US President, a NY State Senator and a potential future president." So she took the 2nd pack and jumped out of the plane.

The 3rd passenger, George W. Bush, said, "I'm the President of the United States of America. I have great responsibility being the leader of a super-power nation and I am the cleverest President in American history, so America's people won't let me die." So he grabbed the pack next to him and jumped out of the plane.

The 4th passenger, the Pope, said to the 5th passenger, a 10 year old schoolgirl, "I am old and frail and don't have many years left, and as a Catholic! I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute."

The girl said, "it's okay, there is a parachute left for you. America's cleverest President has taken my schoolbag."

"Shows how effective it is then, doesn't it?"

Life's Like That : Stroke The Silent Killer

Got an email this morning. Unsure how reliable the information is (I've pasted the information below, just incase someone's still interested to find out), but I guess it's useful to know about it. Did some google search, found out about Stroke : The Silent Killer. So I hear you say "I'm healthy. I've no sign of high blood pressure or other risks factor". Think again, click on the link above.

Excerpt from the mail received :

Now doctors say people can recognize a stroke by asking 3 simple Qs':

1. Ask the individual to smile.
2. Ask him or her to raise both arms.
3. Ask the person to speak a simple sentence.

Or ask the person to 'stick' out his/her tongue, if their tongue is NOT 'straight' but goes off to one side that is another indication of a stroke.

If he or she has trouble with any of these tasks, call the ambulance immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. After discovering that a group of non-medical volunteers could identify facial weakness, arm weakness and speech problems, researchers urged the general public to learn the 3 questions.

Joke Of The Day : Fresh Grads

A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work. The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a broom and said, "Your first job will be to sweep out the store."

"But I'm a college graduate," the young man replied indignantly.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that," said the manager. "Here, give me the broom - I'll show you how."

Little Tommy was in the garden filling in a hole when his neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to, he politely asked, "Whatcha doing, Tommy?"

"My goldfish died," replied the boy tearfully, without looking up. "And I've just buried him."

The neighbor was confused, "That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn't it?"

Tommy patted down the last heap of earth then replied, "That's because he's inside your damn cat."

Life's Like That : Care for them

You! Yes you! You are much luckier than others and yet, sometimes, we still complaint a lot. Look at those poor people, sleeping on the roadside, searching for left over food, torn clothing and not forgotten, those unfortunate people with impaired vision, paralysed, and the list goes on.

Are we doing enough to help those who needed one? If we have the capacity and capability, why not help out? Read this and this short while ago and I decided to place the banner. Will that do any good - you asked? Well, can we see any improvement if we don't even get the ball rolling? I tried to relate what I'm doing here with this. I'm sure Kenny will agree with me, this is not another junk or chain mail, more ever if it's from Jeff and Mack. Well, have you done your part yet?
