This happened earlier this year but I thought of sharing it anyway. I was at the airport waiting for Mohannad to arrive to Melbourne. I felt a bit hungry that night .. there was a delay on the flight as well we had to wait a couple of hours longer. So, I went to get a snack from the vending machine .. inserted 2 coins and they got stuck in the coin slot. I tried to find one of the airport staff who can help me to get my money back. I didn’t want to do anything stupid like shaking the machine or something. Anyway, I asked one of the security guys about it .. and he said it isn’t our responsibility.. there is a phone number on the machine, call them and report the issue. I called them … nobody answered, I expected that cos it was late at night.

The second morning I received a call from the same company asking about the issue and how much did I put in the machine. Two days later, I received this letter with 3 dollars attached to the back. I really appreciate that from them. I know it’s only $3 but what really matters to me is the idea of trusting the customer. 

A few days ago something similar happened to me. I was at school the night before the folio day printing my designs. I sent a job to the printer and paid for that. The printer started the job .. and it cancelled it in the middle. I really felt upset about it, cos I paid for like 8 A3s which is a lot of money :S. I went to the IT administrator and told him about the incident and he recharged my print card with the money I lost while printing. It was as easy as asking how much did you spend? no proof of error or anything at all. It’s all about trust I guess, which really made me thinking this is how we should deal with everyone out there.. maybe .. :).

I finally got a chance to visit “Game On” exhibition to “play my way through the history of video games” :). Although we were expecting more than what we found, we enjoyed it.

yesssSS! I have watched more than 300 episodes so far :D. I am a big fan of “One Piece”, it’s the only anime series I’m watching these days. So, thanks to everyone who made this possible :D hahahaa .. special thanks to Aymen for his help :P.

to celebrate this time .. I went looking for a nice One Piece wallpaper to use :P, and usually fan-art wallpapers aren’t that good, but I was really amazed by this fantastic “piece” of art done by arnistotle, the colours, details, style .. everything is really fantastic. you should check it out.

Another thing this morning was the announcement of the “white” 3G iphone and the availability in Australia next month. I don’t care about the specs :D, I just want a white apple iphone :D. It’s good to see apple bringing back the white colour to their products. I should get one soon :D.

They might not look that great, but they taste good at least.
Now I made the pizzas, it’s time to watch “One Piece” :P.
