amsterdam
amsterdam (holland) - a destination with extremely superb pax profile and of cos a place that i've never get sick of. with the bonus of a gd set of crew besides 1 that i really utterly genuinely dislike.
i hardly detest non ranking crew, he is one of the minority. he attempted to zap me just because he mistook me for the most junior p plate ger. regardless of the misunderstanding, so whats the big deal even if i am the most junior ger, which the fact that i am not! does that give you, a less than a year of experience gs to take advantage of? his small minded intolerable behavior pissed me off totally. i was disgusted by his nasty attitude. he is a smart ass, he loves giving sarcastic remarks, but he knows how to play his cards well. he only does that to junior crew. what an a**hole. jus merely 1 year back, you have been through the same phase too. we all started somewhere isn't it? never forget the basics of life, be nice to everyone, be it a beggar or the emperor. if you want respect, earn it, not demand for it. at the end of the day when he realise he mistook me as most junior ger, his attitude changed but don't you think its too late? don't blame everyone when none of us calls you out, reflect on yourself. you think you are smart and we are idiots. we laughed along with your sarcastic jokes not because we are dumb and we don't get it, its just that we don't want to stir more trouble. taking a step back doesn't allow you to be a pushover. so mind your limits. i hardly blow my top at work, i still didn't this time. but i gave him a cold shoulder which is so rare for the outspoken and crazy me. i talked and laughed with everyone except him. whatever he told me, a joke, a question, or a remark, i nodded and walked away. it was pretty obvious i was mad at him.
alright enough of rantings~ i jsut need that ventilation. hehe.
its my third time to amsterdam within 7 months. although i've been out each time i visit amsterdam, there are still many sightseeing places i've yet to visit. thats the reason why i love amsterdam. this time i went to the torture museum, sex museum, red light district, dams square and shopping! its pretty cold thus we gave the windmill tour a miss. i would love to do that next time. and of cos not forgetting tulips garden, madam tussuad wax museum, historical museum, cheese farm, clog shoes making factory and the authentic dairy farm with the traditional dutch lady and costumes. there are indeed many things to do in amsterdam, isn't it?!
the first touchdown day, 8 of us including 3 tech crew met up for dinner at cafe de gloz. i still prefer the ribs at castel, its my all time favourite. =) then we bought 5 bottles of wine and 5 of us went to captain's room for a drink. i am blessed to have darling dora, rachael, suriah, william and the rest of the crew members -1 on the flight with me. i did paris with dora and william 3months back! what a coincidence ya? hehe.
the clear day in amsterdam, 4 of us went to the torture museum, sex museum, red light district, dams square and shopping! i've things to add on to my kitty collection again. hehz.
i was sooo sooo happy when i came to know i am working with william on the return sector. you can't imagine my joy. hahaha. less contact less friction, anyway its good to stay far far away from the big bully. =p
