Contact Ms. Kris Aquino if you are interested.

I've noticed this signboard at Regalia Tower Suites in P. Tuazon Cubao, Quezon City. This is when I had my supposedly week off but need to work due to the urgency of the problem at work.

I was reading this signboard and I was surprised when I read the contact person to be Ms. Kris Aquino. I was amazed and it got me thinking if the Ms. Kris Aquino did post this for inquiry purpose for a commercial office space on this establishment. But we all know that the Ms. Kris Aquino won't bother on taking calls for a simple inquiry about a commercial space.

But I had this photo shown to my office mates and they were surprised to see the name of the contact person to be Ms. Kris Aquino. Then it got me more curious that I would want to check if indeed the name of the contact person is Kris Aquino. But as I mentioned the Ms. Kris Aquino won't bother taking calls for an inquiry for a commercial space for rent.

This signboard would not be a joke as it was placed on an establishments wherein there are also celebrities living on it. It might be a coincidence that contact person is named after a famous celebrity.

If you want to see it, go to Regalia Tower Suites and check out the 1st floor where the commercial space is located.

Talking Trashcan Getting Ignored

I've noticed this trashcan at a local ATM machine in San Mateo, Rizal. While I was waiting my turn on the machine I've noticed that the trashcan has a Sign Board on it saying "Pakitapon Ang Resibo Sa Basurahan" in English "Please throw your receipts on the trashcan". But even if it's clearly stated on this Sign Board attached to the trashcan you can see that there are receipts scattered all over the floor.

The purpose of the sign board is to keep the place clean of trash. But it doesn't work this time as the ATM users still throw their receipts anywhere they want it. I've noticed that it was placed directly on the trashcan itself. Maybe if they've put it somewhere eye level of a person. That may work a little and be noticed. Also the message on the Sign Board is written on a local language that is Filipino. So it won't be a reason to not understand the message. It is not a reason also if an ATM user is on a rush, due to it will not take 5 seconds of your time to simply drop your trash carefully on the trashcan.

One advise also to all ATM users, if you'll only need to check your balance. Might not need to have a receipt printed out for you by the machine if it will only go directly to trash. Most ATM machines now displays your current account information on the screen. It will not only resolve the scattered receipts near the machine, you also saved a piece of paper from going only to waste without a purpose.

This case is not seen only on this ATM machine in San Mateo Rizal, but you will see it all over the place where ATM machine is located. Specially those machines which are accessible from outside of an establishment.

A simple observation that shows how ATM users behave.
