Talk about directing..

I stumbled upon this video and find it too awesome not too share. I may be one of the late people who just got to know about this video, but surely there would still be some people out there who does not know about this yet. I would not want to pass this chance to spread the word and show you guys how great this video has been created.

It's a Music Video and as I understand it, the title of the song is "Hibi no neiro" and the band name is  "Sour" I may be wrong though.



Talk about the manpower needed to get this done! No wonder why this video was directed by 4 people Masashi Kawamura, Hal Kirkland, Magico Nakamura and Masayoshi Nakamura. I salute you guys for doing a job well done!

This is nice, not only does the video look great but it also sets the benchmark high in creating music videos. I guess it is time for the world to move on in terms of how videos are being presented. Given the technology that we have today, who knows what kind of videos will be having in 10 years from now? 3d Holographic full color and interactive shows maybe?

This is a challenge in full face to all famous and non-famous film directors out there.

Radio while on Call with a customer.

If you are the same as me, spending 8 hours of the day in front of the computer and talking to customers and doing whatever, I found a way to kinda lessen the stress from taking calls.

If my work setup is the same as yours, you'll be able to try this.

Here's how my setup is:

- Desktop PC with the sound volume enabled.
- Cannot play loud music since you might disturb the people around you.

Here's what I did, 

I put on my Headset which i use in talking to customers and then put on my thick earphones over my headset for customers! In that way, I can still hear my customers while I am listening to my favorite radio station magic 89.9. So it's like talking to someone with a cool music background! Kinda eases my stress a bit, it works for me so maybe it would work for you! Not unless you have an A-hole manager harharhar...

Nexus One: iPhone Killer

I just figured this phone is nice, no it's not nice, it's beautiful! Great indeed! Equipped with the 1GHz Qualcomm SnapDragon CPU, this phone will take you to new heights. I found out about it through Yugatech so all credits go to him for the tech info. By the way, it's an HTC manufactured phone.

Just want to voice out a of point of view.

Amazingly these days, the mobile phones of our generation have what is similar to Personal Computers which is the CPU. What is amazing about it is that it is starting to chase and go along with processor speeds of our computers! Just like the Google phone which I mentioned earlier that it is run by a 1ghz Qualcomm SnapDragon CPU which turns out that if you are multi-tasker this phone can take you on.

As for the form factor, I like the sleek design although I do agree with Sir Yuga, that brown color is a no no, 'coz the color looks like it is for the old aged. Very sexy and slim desgin though.

It runs the Google Android OS 2.1 as for the phone's operating system in which what I've heard is the best compared to the other OS's of other phones.

AMOLED display is on this phone and of course touch screen, has a dictionary where you can teach it the common words you type on a text message so you can do your SMS faster.

One last thing that caught my attention and come up with a sudden "Wow" is the camera, it's a 5 megapixel cam that is fast focusing and snappy! Why? This is the type of camera I am looking for a phone, no more holding out the phone far too long after you pressed the shutter and can even let you capture the "moments" if you know what I mean.

As for the other features, it's given, 3G wifi and all that stuff no need to mention it here.

The phone is worth $529 and if you want it now, you can get it shipped here in the Philippines with custom duties and tax all under Php30,000.

To know more about the phone and for the in depth review, check out Sir Yuga's Review at Nexus One Yugatech Review

In my opinion this might be the iPhone killer

Tuna Ph**** anyone?

 A few months ago when I was still working in Eastwood, I remember my favorite breakfast was from TSG(The Sandwich Guy) which was the the Cheesy Bacon Baked Potatoes.

Just recently, I got included to the list of people being forwarded with messages in Facebook and got a message which I think is a good thing to share for the awareness of everyall.

--from an IBMer sent to HR last 1.19.2009

Dear HR,

I shouldn't have brought this up to the management, but I think, with the current situation I am faced with, this incident compelled me to report this to you and so I could use some help. I am also writing this to let my fellow IBMers know about this stomach turning incident which will hopefully open their eyes before buying or eating somewhere.

On January 5th, between 7:30 to 9 AM. I had a gruesome incident with one of the stores here in Eastwood. The name of the store is the Sandwich Guy. It is a small kiosk located here in Eastwood under the tower clock infront of the 7 eleven store. We used to buy lunch from there and get large orders as they serve healthy sandwiches, pasta and drinks. Until that morning, when I discovered something.

On my way home from work, I decided to grab a sandwich for my breakfast so I bought a sandwich from this store. As usual, I went to the store and ordered the country tuna sandwich and a bottle of mineral water. The cashier was courteous and very accommodating though I sense that she is getting ready to go home because it is time to turnover the shift. I notice too that the number of the crews in the store at that time is more than the usual 3 to 4 employees I usually see. So they prepared my country tuna. They put on the spread, grilled the bread, sliced it and wrapped in a paper. Instead of the cashier presenting the order, One crew from the back took the package and presented the order to me saying "Here is your Country Tuna Sir! Enjoy!". Honestly, I was a bit surprised with the unusual greetings but I never minded it so I responded back with a thank you.

So I went out from the store and walk some steps and rode a cab. Hungry I was, I munched into the sandwich which was sliced fairly and savor the tuna and some green leaves between the warm wheat bread. I consumed the first half of it but still my appetite still wants to finish everything. And so I turned on the other side of the sandwich, unwrapped it and started to bit the next half of the bread. I noticed a colorless, liquefied matter on top of the veggies. I thought that it was melted cheese or mayonnaise! It appeared luscious so in the middle of my chomping I slurped it! At that very moment, I got my self teary eyed, I felt my stomach flipped and ended throwing up that bite. It was a foul phlegm of a human. Horrible! ulk!

I immediately asked the cab driver to drive me back to Eastwood and so he did. I entered the store again, this time not nice though still composed as I don't want them to think that I am a uneducated person. I insistently asked the question. " Sino ang nagprepare ng sandwich ko?". The crew who I remembered presented the sandwich to me replied "ano yun sir?! hindi ko po maalala!". With the looks of him, he cant seem to remember that I just ordered the sandwich 30 minutes ago. So I helped them through by stating the obvious that I just ordered the sandwich a few minutes ago. The other lady was bright enough to remember. She pointed at that crew and said "Yung country tuna! yung ginawa mo!". So I knew that it was him "Alloys" who initially presented the order, and the same person who could not remember the order. This time, I directed the question to him."Plema mo ba tong nasa sandwich ko?". And there was silence inside the store but no one is brave enough to answer the question. I repeated the question intensely as I am frustrated, irritated and angry. All I need is an honest response which I have failed to get. No one seemed to answer and prove that I was wrong.

The manager butt in and mediated. He explained that there is a video that we could see and that everything is captured to check if it really was his crew who put that phlegm in the bread. He immediately phoned the owner. He went back to me and said that the video should be ready with in 24 hours as they need a request for it to be released and processed. Imagine how the manager handled the situation poorly. He even admitted that the phlegm I found could be a fault of their commissary as they have also had similar incidents where they found staple wires and strings on their products. The days passed and no video was presented up to this day. Please note that I did not request to view the store video; they made the offer to show the video to me to prove their crew member's innocence.

I gave them the sandwich and the receipt trusting

On January 7th, I was invited by the owner and talked with him and his lawyer who offered to settle the matter amicably. I was with my brother during the time of confrontation gladly as I was not prepared to be intimidated by the lawyer. All I wanted was for them to take responsibility, bring out the truth and talk to the crew. They have told us that they will take this issue seriously and that they will revert back with the result of their investigation and that we will see the video on January 14th. They offered to have the bread undergo DNA testing which we were surprised to say if they are willing to do that. They say it will take few months and that the samples needed to be sent to Australia and Canada. I left the bread and the receipt on their custody as I am trusting them to resolve the issue and will adhere on the truth. The crew, Alloys said his apologies infront of us at the end of the conversation and asked to forgive him of the things he had done. We also proved that the store does not have sanitary permit.

On January 14th, the lawyer called me and my lawyer and told us that the DNA testing was done and that they have found no evidence of the saliva from their crews and that I have no basis for my claim. My lawyer who is my sister-in-law was surprised with the investigation as previously they had stated that it would take months for the DNA results to come back. Afterwards she said to schedule another time to meet up. The lawyer responded back with intimidation questioning matters immaterial to the case. Some questions were:

a) Is my lawyer capable of handling private matters knowing that she is only a government employee?
b) Is she really married? (fyi- she just recently got married so the change name has not been processed yet)

These questions are immaterial to the case and that the intimidation would not work. More so, I am concerned with how the store is handling the situation. I am afraid that action should be taken and that attention should be given for them to respond truthfully and honestly for the welfare of the consumer. We are a thousand employees here in IBM and there are also other people who are buying food from their store. If this incident was not handled properly how much more the management of their crews, and how are they preparing our food. This poses a big concern and I would like your help to achieve the result of the investigation and to warn the employees. I decided not to pursue meetings with them as I do not know if they are truthful to their words with the harshness of words and intimidation they are showing opposite of what they said to settle this amicably. I don't think they are putting action to my complaint.

Further: it would perhaps have been more "acceptable" if I found human hair on my sandwich, or found the tuna /any of the sandwich ingredients to be spoiled. There was phlegm spat on my sandwich - that to me is not a matter of gross negligence, it was a deliberate insult to myself as a paying customer of their store.

My intention of airing this grievance is not to blackmail the store into paying me some amount of money; my intention is for them to a) admit to their mistake and b) put policies/practices in place that will prevent such an occurrence from happening to some one else in the future.

Hope you would consider this note.

Company Details:

Name: The Sandwich Guy
Owner/Franchisee: Mike Pangan
Lawyer: Atty. Pangan
Store Manager: Ernesto "June' Pangan Jr

Address: Food for Fun City Walk 1 Eastwood City
E.Rodriguez, Jr. Avenue, Bagumbayan, Libis QC 1110 

It is hard to believe that there are people out there in the food industry that does real nasty things without even thinking what effect it will do to the victims. My take on this is that the store could have dealt with the situation on the first place seriously, they never thought about the store's reputation being wrecked by such incident. It is such a shame that a store like this that offered one of the best I've ever tasted that they have done such act but it is yet too early to judge and it is not for me to judge.It could have been continued on to court since the issue concerns the public, TSG's future customer, The Republic of the Philippines.

so... tuna phlegm sandwich anyone?

Moh's Web Node#1

Last night, when I was composing my blog for nestea fit I was looking for a picture for the tumbler that I have when I came across this site. 

Liquid Awesomeness                                                                           
There is this guy, Steve where it seems you are interacting with him on the site. You get to play games where he assumes he has super powers and for you to test it out. His source of superpowers  is the Nestea Iced tea drink.
I'd categorize this site as Entertainment\Advertising. Check it out if your feeling kinda bored.

Fit the Nestea!

The Nestea Fit team recently visited our company introducing their new product Nestea Fit.  It's an an apple flavored iced tea that is low on calories and has like 300mg of L-Carnitine in it. It has been said that the L-Carnitine substance helps the body to lose weight, same as what was advertised with Del Monte Fit N' Right. 



When this was promoted in the office cafeteria, they were selling big nestea tumblers like the one in the commercial with the tagline "i-bottomless ang saya" where the woman holds this blue plastic bottle, its similar to that but this time it's red. The bottle itself  indicates that it can fill a Nestea fit 30g pack and once you do, you have yourself a 750ml Nestea fit drink. Compared to the Del MonteFit N' Right  which is what? 250ml to 300ml? I'm not sure, but the point is the Nestea Fit is a lot more! You can find out more about Nestea Fit N' Right here: Nestle

As for me, I love the taste and will give it a try, I don't really care if I will lose weight through Nestea Fit, but we'll see hehe.. SO far it's all good.. at P17.50? Not bad for a fat burner. Try it out.

Where's the drive Moh?

I don't know guys... This is my first post for 2010, To hell with January, I felt so lazy to post any blog in January!! Due to that 1 month negligence to post a blog, whenever I type the URL of my blog, I always end up with thelateblowwithmoh.blogspot.com WTF?? Can anyone tell what is wrong with me? Well enough of that.

I have been been thinking about putting up another blog site specifically for my fixya account. Why so? I just received my payroll atm card from fixya.com. Due to the tough competition with all the experts in fixya, you can barely be the first to get the chat request from a customer not unless you have a very fast internet connection! You have the chance to be the first to get that chat!

Let me explain how it works..

You have the fixya app installed on your machine. There will be a popup on the lower right part of your screen when a customer wants to chat with an expert. Just click on it and then you will get to chat with the customer and your off with the money. The problem is, there's like a thousand other experts waiting for a chat to come up and this chat comes in like 2 or 3 times in an hour! So if you have a fast internet connection then you get the dough! That's how crazy it is..

Now for the alternative..

You can post a tip in fixya.com and fixya will pay you for the traffic. Now this is easier, in which I came with an idea to start my blogsite specifically put up for Tech fixes!

I'll start that up soon to get some bucks to come in...

What to expect this 2010 from The Late Blog With Moh?

Blog posts! More and more blog posts from the one and only!

The journey continues....
