Today I truly appreciate TH contribution. He takes good care of our household and is very efficient too. Told him that our BMW air con is not functioning yesterday and today after he sent JS to tuition, he went to FRIM for his walk, bought fruits home for our breakfast and not long, he was out again to fetch JS before he went to repair the air con. He came home aroung 1pm and took us to Tai Thong for a nice dim sum lunch. He's a good provider.
At the lunch table, a foreign worker was extremely attentive and hardworking. He served us well, made efforts to remember what we ordered and items that are still outstanding. I pointed out to JS and explained to him that it is the extra effort and initiative in that worker that makes him outstanding. If I am the boss there, I will appreciate this type of worker and will be delighted to promote him.
When I thought JS understood about the extra effort and initiative, the next thing I least expect was bombshell from him. He showed me his science book and asked me if I can read the answer he has written to the question. I couldnt read his untidy scribble. But when I asked him if he knows the answer to it, he said he didnt know the answer and he didnt know what he has written down. So I asked him to check the dictionary for the answer he had written and he told me he couldnt read and it was not necessary. I was so disappointed with his attitude. I told him I will check for him there and then and if I can find the answer to it, he will be penalize for a month with no electronic gadgets. Then only he scrambled for dad's phone to check. Too late, I got the answer. He will be penalized for showing no efforts and initiative at all. It is so unacceptable, next week will be his PMR trial exam and today he still doesnt bother to find out the answer to a question in his Science book, gosh!
Well, in the late afternoon, TH and I went over to Saujana to meet up with Putri. She is a friendly and pleasant lady. I bought a box of M&S tea for her and she was happy. She invited us to her open house for Raya. It was a cordial meeting where we handed over some keys that she needed. Her husband offered to pay us one year rent for a discount. Told him we will think about it and let him know later. Then, we headed to Mak Tom and bought our dinner. It cost $41 for the packed dinner. Headed home and enjoyed the malay food together with the kids. Yummy!
