WE HAVE IT, BUT WE'RE NOT GIVING!

There was this "Crisis" in Miri yesterday, where the whole water supply in Miri was contaminated by spilled Diesel fuel, so the whole water distribution was shut off , thus no water in the whole Miri.

Since i was working, i receive the news at around 3pm, text my brother to backup some water. and now the "real" crisis begins. Our hotel started receiving calls, that they wanna check in because they wanna check in and shower in the hotel.

As per pur GM, no more booking until next Sunday since at the time we have no idea when will the water supply come back, so we were all given instructions to NOT sell anymore rooms, since the water reserve in the hotel is limited also.

And for the first time in every hoteliers life, we are allowed to say

WE HAVE ROOM BUT WE ARE NOT SELLING YOU.

omg!! best working day ever!!! and those who called to make reservations,

SORRY NO NO WE ARE NOT TAKING ANYMORE RESERVATIONS UNTIL NEXT SUNDAY

yes yes yes! soo damn free last night.

At first, i was jokingly saying that, staffs are not allowed to flush the toilet anymore, and everyone laughed then 2 hours later, our GM secretary printed a notice and asked me to stick at the staff toilets , to NOT flush the toilets. HAHAHAA! everyone laugh!

Since we were so bored, we start making up stories, saying that without any water to cool down the generators at the SESCO( electric company thing in Miri), then the power plants would explode, without electricity then don't have any internet also. then chaos! People starts to act crazy and rob stores here and there! end of the world!

But for this minor crisis, alot of crazy things happen also, people start sweeping the supermarkets for mineral and drinking waters, the prices of mineral waters hike for don't know how many %%. and even heard people starts to buy many many breads, so they don't need to eat out, where they cooked with DIRTY WATER.

Wahhh!! malaysia too peaceful, nothing happens here, so that is why when crisis hits, nobody knows how to do anything. good thing also malaysia so peaceful! but then without any practice/training/drills when a REAL disaster strucks then habis cerita lo (Screwed!)

But the weird thing is, during these whole thing, my house still got water~~ hahahah

EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL NOW THOUGH.

need to work like usual ...

and now only people will appreciate things, we human take too much things for granted already! humans!!


Bye!
