For the past few weeks, I was so busy focusing on an account we had. Not the best client but since we committed to delivery, we need to do everything we can. Our project was so challenging that we need 2 suppliers to finish it. The worst part is that the time line is simple crazy.
So last Sunday, I went to my supplier to pick up some items that our client requested. I wasn't in the mood to go to our client because it is far and to delivery the partial items is another story. While waiting for the train in the MRT in Boni station, I saw two guys on the other side waiting for a train. To my surprise, they did not board the train even if they can. I assumed that they are taking their time to wait for a less crowded train. When our train came, the usual savage attitude of the people of "pushing the person in front of you just to get in" was engaged. I had a good spot near the side of the door. When I looked around, the same two guys from the other side was standing outside our train and I was wondering why. The young man near the door suddenly checked his cellphone and to our surprise, those two son of a bitch was actually not boarding because they are using the situation to swipe things while people were pushing their way in. The phone was retrieved and I was kinda hoping that young man would start a fight for I will surely give those idiots some beating (I wasn't in the mood and I hate those people who will steal from honest people). During our trip going to Shaw, the young man's friend found out that he lost his wallet so when we were in Shaw station, they quickly got out and notified the authorities. I felt so lucky because a few inches would made me the victim and it would surely mess a messed up day.
Upon arriving at my supplier's place, I got the delivery and was on my way to Cubao to drop off the items. I was so tired that I just rode the first bus going to Cubao. I didn't mind if it was an ordinary one over those air conditioned bus. My only motive was to deliver it ASAP and go home and rest. During the trip, the bus stopped I think somewhere in Munoz. Street kids were trying to ride the bus, maybe to ask money from the passengers. The driver asked the kids to leave and it became a little physical. Though no harm was done. One of the street children was mad and he picked up a stone as big as a brick and threw it to our window. It almost hit me in the face and fortunate enough it hit the side of the bus. I would be unconscious if it hit me. Just made me realize that my day is not getting any better.
I hurried home and rested. I continued to analyzed what has just happened and it seems that when we are messed up, sometimes the higher being up there is really helping us not to face more problems. Maybe I was so down and it would really be a kick in my balls if my wallet would be stolen (take note, I only have 100 pesos in my wallet that time) and if I was hit by that stone (my ever demanding client needs those items already and if I was hit, somebody might just steal those items). In the end, maybe I was saved to live to fight another day. True enough, the week is getting more stressful...
