Blog posts are now few and far between.
Well, I had some trouble signing out of one of my alter-ego gmail identities. Despite signing out from account A using tools from the top right corner, each time I launched Blogger it did a default login to account A for me. This problem persisted for some months. Today I got fed up and deleted my entire browser/cookies/password history from the beginning of time, and then now life is back to normal.
Life is, indeed, back to normal. As usual it dealt me a few curve balls, but nothing too depressing.
After all, no one ever died from a few curve balls - did they? Let's hope the answer to that is a resounding NO.
My home renovation is almost complete. I only did basic but fundamental improvements, nothing fancy-schmancy. Despite the basic requirements, my contractor is surprisingly bad at doing what he needs to do for me. His name is Mr Poh and he only does a good job for you if you spend a bomb on your renovation. Otherwise, he'll attend to you only in his spare time.
Alas the practicalities of life.
I can't recall his business' name right this moment, but the next time I do I'll try to remember to share it with this cyber community. Contractors engaged to fix people's roofs can't expect good reviews if the roof is still leaking after the repair, right?
[Update on 7 July 2015:
My SMSes and my mom's SMSes sent to the contractor to ask him to reply us on when he expects to finish tidying up the loose ends (the problems he caused because he didn't do his job properly) were completely ignored.
This is not counting a couple more items that are stated on the quotation but not yet started to date.
This contractor started on my renovations since mid-Jan 2015.
We're running low in the Patience department now.
The business this Mr Poh Ah Tai runs is called Tai Engineering, Biz Registration No. 53119584L, registered office at Rochor Centre, but this could be the address of the corporate secretariat. Running a google search on business phone number +65 65833633, this Mr Poh guy also seems to have registered another business known as Tai Yong Builders, located in Hougang Ave 8. His mobile is +65 98181988.
My overall feedback: Mr Poh's follow-up service is very bad. He tends to over-promise and under-deliver - a big NONO when your business is messing around with people's homes. Also, he likes to make decisions on behalf of the home-owners when it comes down to the finer details like the colour of door panels.
To him, its just work. To me, this is my home. And I'm REALLY PISSED when he leaves it in a half-completed state.
If I had the chance to re-select my contractor - I WOULD NOT CHOOSE TAI ENGINEERING. And this is my recommendation to all of you who chance upon this entry.]
Enough with the negative thoughts.
I'm off to bed.
