WHOS YOUR TEAM?

SO JUST A QUICK POST SINCE ITS LATE AND IM TIRED... AS USUAL LOL. ANYWAYS SO IVE GONE TO TWO HOCKEY GAMES THE PAST TWO WEEKS AND BOTH HAS BEEN A WIN. THIS IS QUITE RARE FOR MY TEAM, ESPECIALLY LATELY. WE HAVENT REALLY DONE GOOD THE PAST FEW YEARS, SINCE OUR CUP RUN WHERE WE MADE FINALS... AND BLEW IT. YES YES YOU CAN GUESS WHICH TEAM THAT IS LOL. ANYWAYS THE THING THAT I ALWAYS FOUND INTERESTING IS THAT THERE CAN BE HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS, TENS OF THOUSANDS, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, AND EVEN MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH A CERTAIN TEAM PLAY A CERTAIN SPORT. IT DOESNT MATTER IF ITS HOCKEY, SOCCER, FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, PING PONG, SWIMMING, OR WHATEVER THE DOZENS AND DOZENS OF SPORTS IT COULD BE, THERE WILL ALWAYS BE FANS. THERE IS THE NEW FAN, CASUAL FAN, BIG FAN, CRAZY FAN, AND DIE HARD FANS. THE THING WITH THIS IS THAT ALL THOSE FANS ARE JUST FANS... THEY DONT HAVE A REAL STAKE IN THE WHOLE THING. THE PLAYERS ARE THE ONES ON THE FIELD OR RINK OR COURT OR WHATEVER, PLAYING TO WIN AND PLAYING TO BE A CHAMPION. IF YOU PLAY SPORTS YOU WILL GET WHAT I MEAN. THOSE WHO PLAY THE SPORT WANT TO WIN, AND THOSE THAT WIN, YOU FEEL THE ACCOMPLISHMENT AND HAVE THE TITLE. IF YOU ARE A FAN, WHAT DO YOU GET? THE $15 HOT DOG AND $10 POPCORN AND $5 DRINK... THATS WHAT YOU GET. YOU MIGHT FEEL HAPPY FOR YOUR TEAM BUT YOU REALLY DONT GET ANYTHING OUT OF IT. EVERYTHING YOU PAY AND BUY IS ALL GOING TO THE PLAYERS. THEY ARE THE ONES MAKING MILLIONS OFF YOU WATCHING AND BUYING THEIR JERSEYS AND GEAR. GRANTED SOMETIMES THE FANS DO GET TO DICTATE WHAT GOES ON WITH YOUR TEAM, BUT MOST OF THE TIME YOU DONT. I DO SEE THE APPEAL OF GOING TO GAMES AND ENJOYING YOURSELF, EATING, CHATTING, WATCHING THE GAME. MAYBE YOU WANT TO GO TO SEE A GOOD PLAYER. EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO, BENEFITS THE TEAM, AND NOT  YOU. WHEN YOUR TEAM WINS, DO YOU REALLY WIN? DO YOU GET ANYTHING? YOU JUST GET TO SAY THAT YOU WERE THERE, YOU WERE A PART OF IT, BUT ARE YOU REALLY? DOES THE STAR PLAYER KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND COMES OVER TO SAY HI OR HANG OUT? NO. ALL THE PLAYERS KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME, AND I MEAN THE POLITICAL GAME. YOU SAKE SOME HANDS, TAKE A FEW PICTURES, AND SIGN SOME AUTOGRAPHS TO KEEP YOUR SALARY COMING IN. HEY DONT GET MY WRONG... IF I COULD BE A PRO ATHLETE AND MAKE MILLIONS BY PLAYING A SPORT I LOVE, I WOULD TOTALLY DO IT IN A HEARTBEAT. ITS JUST FUNNY TO ME. ALSO ALL THOSE DIE HARD FANS THAT KNOWS EVERY SINGLE STAT FOR EVERY SINGLE PLAYER FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS AND EVEN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE, WHATS IN THAT FOR YOU? DO YOU REALLY CARE THAT SOMEONE HAS A CERTAIN POINT % OR RBI OR YARDS OR ANYTHING? THIS JUST MAKES YOU THINK... WHAT AND WHO ARE YOU REALLY THERE FOR? WHY DO YOU LIKE THE TEAM THAT YOU DO? ITS INTERESTING WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE GOING CRAZY ABOUT THEIR TEAM. PSYCHOLOGICALLY SPEAKING FANS ARE JUST LOOKING FOR A SENSE OF BELONGINGNESS. THERE IS JUST A DIFFERENT CONNECTION WITH SOMEONE WHO IS ALSO A FAN OF THE SAME TEAM THAT YOU ARE. EVERYONE AND EVERY TEAM IS THE SAME. WHICH ALSO MEANS THAT EVERY FAN AND EVERY TEAM WILL WANT THEIR TEAM TO WIN AND THAT THEY ARE BETTER THAN THEM, WHEN IN FACT, EVERYONE IS EXACTLY THE SAME. COMPETITION HAS ALWAYS BEEN AROUND, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, AND WILL ALWAYS BE AROUND. THERE IS NO WAY AROUND IT. WHO IS BETTER, WHOS GOT MORE, WHOS WHO. ITS JUST KEEPS GOING ON AND ON AND ON. ITS NEVER GOING TO STOP SO JUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU COME OUT THE WINNER.

ITS A WEIRD WEEK SINCE CHRISTMAS WAS A WEEKEND. I ENDED UP GETTING MONDAY AND TUESDAY OFF, THAT WAS NICE. DIDNT REALLY DO MUCH, JUST HUNG OUT WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY. SECRET SANTA WITH MY FRIENDS WAS COOL, I GOT A SSJ2 GOKU FIGURE FROM MY SECRET SANTA. I ALSO GOT A DRONE AND A PAIR OF REALLY NICE SHOES FROM THE GF :) I GOT HER A BUNCH OF STUFF SHE WANTED. THERE WAS JACKET, SOME SOCKS, A MAKE UP THING, A TSUM TSUM, AND SOME LED LIGHTS THAT SHE WANTED A WHILE BACK. ALSO GOT SOME CLOTHES AND MENS STUFF LIKE WASH AND COLOGNE. ALL IN ALL IT WAS A NICE CHRISTMAS.

WELL THAT ALL FOR THIS YEAR. I KNOW I USUALLY WRITE A YEAR END POST THAT SUMMERIZES HOW THE YEAR WENT BUT IM LAZY RIGHT NOW AND I CANT WAIT TIL 2016 IS OVER. IL WRITE THAT POST IN THE NEW YEAR WHEN IM LOOKING BACK. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, I WISH YOU ALL A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY AND SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR :)

THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!!!

NEED I SAY MORE??? THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT SHOULD REALLY JUST READ I AM ALWAYS RIGHT. THAT IS BECAUSE I AM ALWAYS RIGHT LOL. ANYWAYS I DONT REALLY EVER MAKE COMPLAINTS... WELL... I DO BUT MOSTLY ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH SERVICES OR PROBLEMS WITH INVOICES. HOWEVER, IF YOU PISS ME OFF, I WILL REPORT YOUR ASS AND GET YOU IN SHIT!!! I GET MAD, AND I GET EVEN. ITS ACTUALLY PRETTY FUNNY THAT BOTH THESE STORIES HAPPENED OVER THE PAST WEEK, AND ITS JUST PERFECT TIMING TO POST IT UP. BOTH OF THESE SITUATIONS HAVE BEEN RESOLVED AND IL WRITE THE RESULT AT THE BOTTOM.

THIS WAS MY COMPLAINT TO A CASINO REGARDING THE CRAPS STICKMAN. THE NAME OF THE CASINO HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT.

"My last visit was on Friday December 16, 2016 and at 11:40pm I was playing at the craps table. I threw the dices and 1 of them bounced out of the table. This natural thing happens to anyone and everyone. Then when I received the new dices I threw these badly and I know it, and another bounced out. It was then the centre dealer with the stick (stickman) gave me the dirtiest look I have ever received. He then proceeded to throw the stick at me and knock my chips all over the place ON PURPOSE. He also gave me attitude from there on, and also every time he would just shove the dices over. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TREATED LIKE THIS BEFORE. I have played everything from slots, to table games, to high limit side tables, and high limit upstairs. The other dealers and pit, even if they were annoyed, did not show it. I was pissed that he treated me like this and I stopped playing. I then proceeded to play roulette and walk around and whenever I was in the area of the craps table this Asian stickman just kept giving me the dirty look. WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THIS! EVEN IF HE IS PISSED OFF HE HAS TO SHOW RESTRAINT, AS HE IS REPRESENTING YOUR COMPANY. I have never had an issue until today. I usually go at least once a week, and have gone 3 times the past week. This is unacceptable. You can pull the video from that day and you will see. I want something done about this transgression towards me. There are many other casinos i can go to, but I choose yours. 

I WANT A RESPONSE IN REGARDS TO THIS COMPLAINT"

RESULT: A MANAGER CONTACTED ME AND SAID THANK YOU FOR LETTING HIM KNOW. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUES, IT IS UNACCEPTABLE, AND THEY WILL BE DEALING WITH THE EMPLOYEE DIRECTLY. THEY PRIDE THEMSELVES IN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY APOLOGIZE AND WOULD LIKE TO OFFER ME SOME MEAL VOUCHERS IN RETURN FOR HIS HORRIBLE ATTITUDE AND MY BAD EXPERIENCE AT THEIR ESTABLISHMENT.

HERE IS THE NEXT ONE, AND ITS ONE OF MY BANKS THAT PISSED ME OFF. I HAVE REMOVED THE BRANCH ADDRESS.

"Both BRANCH A and BRANCH B closes at 8:00pm. I drove by BRANCH A at 7:50pm and they were open but busy. I then went to the BRANCH B and arrived at 7:58pm, only to find that the branch was closed and locked. I arrived before 8:00pm and not only the door was locked, the employees inside were already checking out and getting ready to leave. I kept knocking and finally someone came to the front, and it wasn't 8:00pm yet. They said they are closed, and I told them its before 8:00pm. They suggest me using an ATM which I did not want to use due to what I needed to do. Someone else came, who might be a manager, said they closed up already and suggested the same thing, to use the ATM. WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THIS! When you are opened from 8:00am to 8:00pm, the doors open at 8:00am and CLOSE at 8:00pm, and not a minute early! I don't know what kind of branch you are running at BRANCH B, but other branches have people waiting at the door and once it is 8:00pm they lock up the door. I have been to other branches last minute at 7:55pm, 7:58pm, and even just after 8:00pm and they serve me in a courteous manner. Just because there wasn't anyone in the branch before 8:00pm, doesn't give them the right to close up and get ready to leave. They were all standing around, had their counts complete and was ready to go. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! No one was able to help and they all just stood around. 

Any store you go to, if they are opened to a certain time, they are opened to that time. Any kind of after hour procedures, or close up procedures is to be completed AFTER the closing of the store, not before. 

If you say you are open to 8:00pm, your doors are opened to 8:00pm and not closed a minute earlier. Now I have to find time to make an additional trip to BRANCH B just to deal with my banking needs. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH BRANCH B UNTIL NOW. None of the employee there was able to help. 

I AM EXTREMELY UNHAPPY WITH YOUR COMPANY'S SERVICE AND DEMAND A REPLY OR A CALL REGARDING THIS TRANSGRESSION TOWARDS ME."

RESULT: THE BRANCH MANAGER CALLED ME, APOLOGIZED, AND WAS SHOCKED TO HEAR AND FIND OUT THAT THEY ARE CLOSING EARLY. THEY ASSURED ME THAT THEY DEFINITELY WILL BE SPEAKING TO THEIR STAFF ABOUT THIS. THEY AGREED WITH EVERYTHING I SAID AND AS A TOKEN OF THEIR APPRECIATION, THEY OFFERED ME A SMALL GIFT CARD, WHICH WAS FOR STARBUCKS. I WENT TO HTE BANK TO GET MY STUFF DONE AND THEN SPOKE TO THE PERSON I WAS SUPPOSE TO SEE. THEY ALSO APOLOGIZED AND SAID THAT THEY HAD A STAFF MEETING TELLING EVERYONE THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CLOSE EARLY.

FIRST THING YOU MIGHT THINK IS WTF!!! ITS NOT IN CAPS!!! WELL... NOT EVERYTHING CAN BE IN CAPS LOL. I WISH IT COULD, BUT WORK, AND THESE KINDS OF EMAILS CANT BE IN CAPS. THEN AGAIN, THERE IS A BUNCH OF CAPS IN THERE TOO HAHA SO I DID TRY TO MAKE IT CAPS. BOTH THESE SITUATIONS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THEY HAD JUST BEEN MORE POLITE. NOW, INSTEAD, EVERYONE IS GOING TO GET IN TROUBLE. THE MORAL OF THE STORY, IS IM ALWAYS RIGHT!!! I MEAN... TREAT EVERYONE WITH RESPECT. I DONT CARE FOR THE GIFTS, ITS A NICE GESTURE AND ALL BUT MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT HOPEFULLY ANYONE ELSE IN THE FUTURE WILL NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH WHAT I HAD TO DEAL WITH. WITH SOCIAL MEDIA BEING SO INSTANT AND CONNECTED, ANYONE HAVING ANY ISSUES CAN BLAST IT OUT IN NO TIME. MANY OF THE BIG COMPANIES HAVE PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF THAT KIND OF STUFF AND THEY LOOK FOR COMPLAINTS AND ISSUES. THEY HELP SOLVE THEM BECAUSE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS SUCH A BIG THING. ITS LIKE HOW THEY SAY: "A HAPPY CUSTOMER WILL TELL 3 PEOPLE, AN UNHAPPY CUSTOMER WILL TELL 10 PEOPLE." COMPANIES IMAGE AND REPUTATION IS ON THE LINE AND THEY WANT TO PROVE TO EVERYONE THAT THEY CAN BE RESPONSIVE, CARING, AND RESPONSIBLE. IF ANYONE OF YOU EVER HAVE AN ISSUE LIKE THIS, REPORT IT!!! THE ONLY WAY ANYONE CAN MAKE CHANGES IS BY KNOWING ABOUT IT. NOTHING CAN CHANGE IF NO ONE KNOWS WHATS WRONG. WE ARE THEIR CUSTOMERS AND THEY REALLY ARE NOT THE ONLY SERVICE PROVIDERS OUT THERE. THERE IS MORE TO BE SAID ABOUT THIS BUT YOU ALL GET MY POINT.

LAST FRIDAY WAS ALSO MY COMPANIES CHRISTMAS PARTY. ME BEING THE SOCIAL COORDINATOR AND MANY OTHER TITLES... WAS IN CHARGE OF THE GAMES AND FESTIVITIES. LONG STORY SHORT... IT WAS A BIG SUCCESS. EVERYONE HAD FUN AND ENJOYED THEMSELVES. BESIDES THAT, JUST BEEN BUSY WITH WORK AND THE REST IS THE SAME AS USUAL. WELL, THIS WAS MOST DEFINITELY A MEANINGFUL POST AND A REAL POST INDEED. SO LETS HOPE THAT THIS CAN KEEP GOING NEXT WEEK. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE AND I WISH YOU ALL A WONDERFUL HOLIDAYS.

REVIEW: NOCTURNAL ANIMALS

I SHOULD JUST TURN THIS BLOG INTO A MOVIE REVIEW BLOG... SINCE IT IS LOOKING LIKE THAT ALREADY LOL. IL JUST KEEP IT THE WAY IT IS AND SEE HOW THIS GOES. ANYWAYS SO THIS WEEKS MOVIE IS TOM FORDS THRILLER NOCTURNAL ANIMALS. IT STARS AMY ADAMS, ISLA FISHER, JAKE GYLLENHAAL AND A BUNCH OF OTHERS. HERE COMES THE SPOILERS!!! BASICALLY THERES 3 STORYLINES, 1 IS THE PRESENT, 1 IS THE PAST, AND THE LAST ONE IS THE BOOK THAT IS BROUGHT TO LIFE. THERES ANOTHER SMALL STORYLINE THAT INVOLVES THE HUSBAND OF THE AMY ADAMS BUT THEY NEVER REALLY DID MUCH WITH IT. I DONT KNOW HOW I LIKE AMY AS THE MAIN CHARACTER... THERE SEEMED TO BE SOMETHING OFF ABOUT HER. MAYBE IT WAS THE CHARACTER SHE WAS PLAYING BUT I JUST DIDNT REALLY CARE FOR HER. THE BOOK STORYLINE WAS GOOD. JAKE HAD THE MOST OUT OF THIS MOVIE AS HE WAS IN THE PAST AND IN THE BOOK STORYLINE. HONESTLY I THINK TOM FORD COULD HAVE REALLY JUST MADE A MOVIE OUT OF THE BOOK. THE REST OF THE MOVIE AND THE FLASHBACKS FELT MORE LIKE A FILLER. I WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO HER READING THE BOOK AND BRINGING THAT PART BACK. IL JUST TELL YOU NOW, IT WAS PRETTY DARK BUT I LIKED IT. IT WORKED AND TOTALLY FELT IT AND WANTED TO KNOW WHAT WAS NEXT. AS YOU CAN EXPECT SINCE TOM FORD MADE THIS MOVIE AND DIRECTED IT, THERE WOULD BE SOME COUTURE IN IT, AND THERE WAS. IT WASNT TOO MUCH BUT YOU CAN TOTALLY SEE THE PLUGS INTO THE MOVIE HAHA. THE ENDING THOUGH... I SORT OF EXPECTED THAT KIND OF ENDING. IT JUST SEEMED LIKE THAT WAS WHERE IT WAS GOING. I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO END A GOOD 15 MINS BEFORE IT ENDED JUST BY THE SET UP OF THE SCENES. I JUST WANT MORE OF THAT BOOK STORY, THE REST I DONT CARE FOR... THIS WASNT A MOVIE THAT I WOULD HAVE CHOSE TO WATCH, BUT IT WAS REALLY ENJOYABLE. OVERALL, I LIKED IT AND I WOULD GIVE IT A SOLID 7.25/10. THIS WAS MORE OF A REAL REVIEW COMPARED TO SOME OF THE REVIEWS IVE GIVEN LOL.

OH SNOW SNOW SNOW... YOU REALLY SCREWED US. YOURE PRETTY AND ALL BUT WHAT A BITCH TO DEAL WITH... ANYWAYS, WORK IS WORK. BUSY AS USUAL. ITS CHRISTMAS SO THAT MEANS CARDS AND GIFTS AND FOOD.

REVIEW: INFERNO

YOU ALL KNOW WHATS UP LOL. I SORTA PASSED OUT AND JUST WOKE UP AGAIN... SO LETS JUST PRETEND WE ARE SURPRISED BY THAT... MOVING ON NOW :) THE MOVIE WAS OVERALL ENJOYABLE. I FOUND THE FIRST ONE TO BE THE BEST. EVEN THE SECOND ONE WAS BETTER THAN THIS ONE. THE STORYLINE WAS OK... WE ALL KNEW IT WAS GOING TO WORK OUT. THE TIMING IN IT ALL IS TOO CONVIENT LOL. THERE WAS FAR LESS PUZZLES AND TWISTS AND TURNS, AND THAT WAS WHY THE OTHERS WERE SO SUCCESSFUL. THEY MOST DEFINITELY MILKED THIS WHOLE FRANCHISE. DONT GET ME WRONG, TOM HANKS PLAYED A GREAT PART AND FELICITY JONES IS SUCH A HUGE STAR RIGHT NOW AND ITS GOOD TO SEE THEM IN DIFFERENT ROLES. WITHOUT SPOILING ANYTHING IL JUST LEAVE THE MOVIE LIKE THAT. SO GO AND READ THE BOOKS IF YOU HAVENT ALREADY. I HAVENT... LOL. ANYWAYS IL GIVE THIS MOVIE A... 7.5-7.86/10.

WHAT ELSE WAS THERE... OH WENT TO A WORK PARTY, ATE LOTS AND THEN WENT TO MY BROS BDAY. PLAYED A BUNCH OF BOARD GAMES SO THAT WAS FUN. I LOST BOTH OF THEM... HAHA. OH OH OH IT SNOWED!!! YA SO ON THE EAST COAST OF THE COUNTRY ITS BEEN SNOWING FOR LIKE A MONTH ALREADY, BUT HERE ON THE WEST COAST IT ONLY JUST SNOWED SUNDAY/MONDAY OVERNIGHT. EVEN WITH THAT JUST ONE SNOW... IT SCREWED EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING UP. ISSUES HERE, ISSUES THERE, OH AND NOT MENTION THE IDIOTS DRIVING HERE AND THERE AND ALL OVER THE PLACE. THAT MADE WORK FUN... COMING IN AND EVERYTHING WAS BLA HAHA. ALRIGHT WITH THAT IL STOP HERE. IM TIRED AND SLEEP AS USUAL AND ONCE AGAIN ITS A HALF POST... MUST WRITE REAL ONE SOON BUT I HAVE TOO MUCH STUFF I NEED TO DO FIRST. MAYBE IL JUST TAKE A BREAK FROM BLOGGING... HMMM... JUST GOING TO THINK ABOUT THAT... IL LET YOU ALL KNOW. SEE YOU NEXT TIME.
