pissed off

i am damn pissed. i just hate people who don't love books and they work in bookstores. every bookworm will tell you:

rule #1: keep my books in mint condition.

that's why i always clear wrap my books once i buy or get them. so today, me, jeremy and nazreen were at west mall getting presents for chan, who has, by the way has received his baby girl (little chloe chan!) into this world on the 9th April 2008, at 1520 hrs. congrats!

anyway we decided to get the kite runner for his wife to read while on maternity leave, and some soothing piano pieces for little chloe. we got them at popular, and they don't offer book wrapping. so we went over to sans bookshop to ask if they'd do it for us. for the record, MOST SANS BOOKSHOPS DO THAT FOR $1. but this lady, what a bitch. she said, no.

i smiled and say, "even if i paid for it?" and she still said no. still smiling i said, "please? as a favour? it's a gift." but no.. no means no, even though she has like ready cut clear wraps (one whole stack for that matter!) just beside her. i mean wtf! need to be so mean or not? it's not like i;m not paying or anything. if i'm working there, i'd gladly wrap books for people because they care for their books. she has no compassion.

what a bitch.
