MCKL PC takes over Sungai Chongkak

Yesterday,

was in Sungai Chongkak for a club's field trip. Got Leanne's Grandfather as a mentor to teach us how to shoot streams creating a cotton effect at the portions of water gushing. Was a pretty fun day until some nonsensical thing happened.

Anyway, not to ruin the mood, pictures first!

Overall, the trip was fun and educational.

BUT,

when we were leaving the premises, the van that we hired broke down. We were left stranded at outskirts for freaking 2 hours. The driver of the van rang the headquarters to get another van to come over to help out with the situation. After waiting for around an hour, the van arrived and apparently it was the guy i was dealing with to hire the van - Mr. P.

Mr. P is one of the worst people i have dealt with. He is in a service business but he is so hard to contact. Forever not picking up his cellphone and even after texting him, he doesn't even reply to let me know he has acknowledged my request. He was the one giving me stress the whole time while organising this trip. Making me worry that a van will not show up on the day of field trip.

So Mr. P reached and instead of giving us a ride back when we were already so late, he went fixing the van that broke down instead. We waited patiently for around an hour until he gave up trying to fix the van and decided to send us back to the college.

We got back late and hungry because we missed lunch. Me, Rey and my teacher advisor were negotiating to get the fare reduced due to the delay but Mr. P kept on insisting that it was all an accident and it could not be anticipated so it was entirely not their fault. Therefore, the fare remains the SAME.

BUT MR. P WAS MORE INTERESTED IN GETTING 2 VANS OPERATIONAL TO GO ON WITH THEIR SCHEDULE RATHER THAN MAKING SURE THAT WE GET BACK TO COLLEGE ASAP. What kind of service is that man.

Then he starts rambling about the trust he has upon us and a lot of other bullshit. In the end, I couldn't get the fare reduced and had to pay the full amount for lousy service.

Not long later, I got an sms from an unknown number:


Kids, u hv miss use d trust i ve on u. Vy dissapointed as wat i can tel u.


These were his exact words. Must be from Mr. P.

I can tell u that i'm more disappointed in the first place.
