Cathay Cineleisure's Negligence

"Sir, are you sitting at the right place?" I asked.

"Yes."

"Are you sure your ticket is L15, can you show it to me?" I asked again.

After comparing the tickets with the aid of cell phone screen light...
Wahh.. Seat Number, Hall Number, Movie Title , Price , Time ... Exactly the same!! Unbelievable...

"Sir, I found out your ticket is exactly same as mine, can you borrow me for a while, i gonna ask the personnel outside" I said.

Right after came out from cinema, I saw one crew was passing by, I approached him and ask about what's happened to my tickets. I met with some other cinemagoers who were having such a problem too. The crew asked us to follow them and they are gonna check the tickets at their database.

THIS IS MY TICKETS:


... ... ... 10 minutes gone, the show has been started... ... ...

After that we followed the crew to go upstair again. We went into the cinema again!! Stand a while to watch the show. wow.. i saw there was a fierce fight between transformers at the beginning of the show.

The crew called us out, they have checked and they informed us that our tickets are invalid because it is 11:45AM, not 11:45PM. Gosh!!

They brought us to the ticket counter, then asked us to deal with the personnel.
It sounds like they always have this kind of technical problems.

My sister was there, she spoke to the crew and sought for the manager on duty.

We explained the problem to the manager.

Actually we bought the ticket in the morning around 10AM, we wanted to watch it at night which is 11:45PM, but they gave us 11:45AM instead of 11:45PM.

My sister asked for compensation. She requested for REFUND plus FREE 3 TICKETS for tomorrow Transformer.

The request has been rejected and we are only able to claim refund. It spoiled our mood!! We went back home with full of disappointment and freaking bad mood.

REFUND:

I talked to my sister, I'm gonna sue them!!!

The lawyer (my sister) has spoken to me, the printed ticket mistake is a contributory negligence, which both parties need to be responsible.

As a cinemagoer, we need to check the time and title of our movie before leaving the counter.

As a cinema crew, they need to make sure their customers preference on time selection.


The part that we pinpointed and able to sue for negligence of Cineleisure is:
We were allowed to enter to the cinema hall after the ticket checking by their crew.
This was their fault.

If this is a VIP Platinum Movie showroom, and such a technical problem occurred, the chance of winning is higher.

What we can do is write a letter of complain to them as a feedback for them to improve their service to eliminate such a problem.

End up, we go back home with bad mood. I am here to express my dissatisfaction on Cineleisure service. This is the first time i faced such a problem. I will definitely will check the tickets before leaving the counter!!

DEALING PROCESS:

4 injections today!! Just like drug addict..

Studying abroad? It is not easy as I thought.
Not you say you wanna go, then the next day can go ady..
there is no such thing!!

First, You need to take TOEFL exam (US), IELTS (UK).

When you got your university.. it still a lot of procedures that you need to go through...

Today, I went to Kelana Jaya Medical Centre with my GPS.

Private hospital is faster and I almost get everything done in 3hours.

Luckily I have had my blood test in Pathlab last month, the blood test is quite a comprehensive one. So, some other records can be referred to my blood test report.

I have just realised that I never had tetanus booster vaccine when I was small.
SEE MY BIRTH CERT BELOW: (Tetanus Booster is Blank)


And I forgot whether I have had the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccines. So, I decided to take it one more time.

As to the requirement of my University, I need to take Meningococcal vaccine. It is the most expensive one among all. It costs me RM108 for that injection.

What I have done in KJMC today are as below:
1. Chest X-ray
2. ECG
3. Vision examination
4. Meningococcal Vaccine (Menomune)
5. MMR Vaccine
6. Tetanus Vaccine (ATT)
7. Tuberculin Skin Test
8. Physical Examinations

Doctor said I am just like a drug addict when I've completed all the 4 injections.


For Tuberculin Skin Test, the vaccine dosage has a total of 15ml, but I need only 1ml. So, it can be used for 15 ppl. However, it will only last for 24hours once the seal is opened. I need to pay for the whole vaccine dosage. It costs me RM90 for that. If divided by 15, only RM6.

Doctor asks me to call my other friends who wanna do Tuberculin Test, it is Free of Charge since I have paid the fee. Otherwise it will be wasted and throw away.
24 Hours from 17 June 2009, 1.30pm. Who wanna do the test, go KJMC tomorrow before afternoon!!

I have called up my Kelvin, Gin Seng, Anna, they are busy and cannot go there tomorrow. So, i think it is gonna be wasted!!

After the Tuberculin Vaccine, the report is gonna come out 48-72hours after the injection. Doctor is gonna check my injection area, that's why he marked it with permanent marker pen. So, I need to go back KJMC to get my Tuberculin Skin Test result on Friday.

After that, I will be going back to my Hometown, Jitra and come back to KL on 22nd June.

Say Bye to TARC!

I have submitted my deferment form and told my tutors that I am gonna defer my studies for 1 year and go to US for the next 6months.

1 year deferment is my opportunity cost...
I would say nothing is perfect in the world.
You've gotta know how to give and take.

I will definitely miss the ACCA December 2009 exam sitting. And, only be able to take my core papers on June sittings.

What I am planning to do is:
1.Not to bother so much and go enjoy my life in US for the rest of year 2009.
2.Back from US, go KSA, Orange for ACCA tuition.
3.Take up ACCA core papers in June 2010 sitting.
4.Enroll in TARC AFA2 on June.
5.Get my ACCA result on August. (crunch time!! hope to pass all papers)
6.Sit for optional papers in ACCA December 2010 Exam.
7.February 2011, ACCA result released.
8.Become ACCA affiliate!!
9.Complete AFA2.
10.July 2011 - Dec 2011 Go BCU for Master in Accounting and Finance.

Back to my college, miss my workplace so much..

Well, my college has started and heading in the second week of new semester + new academic year, that is final year. As an ACCA student, here it comes. Finally, I am ACCA student who will sit for P1, P2, P3 real external examination in December 2009. Previously, I was an internally assessed student, who has been awarded exemptions by ACCA for the first Nine Fundamental Papers in ACCA Examination.


Now, I get back to college life, but still not in the mood for studies. I miss my internship place.
Well, whenever passing by One Utama, I still remember vividly the period I worked in Deloitte for my internship. Every morning around 8am and evening 6pm, I will pass by this place. It is 1Utama. The biggest shopping mall in Malaysia.

After being together along the congesting traffic, here I reached my workplace, Deloitte Malaysia. It is at Level 12/19 of Uptown 1, the highest building in Damansara Uptown. Nice? there is always nice cars parking outside Deloitte Building.


And this was my group partition, it is nice and organised. The picture is shot by my Samsung Omnia in continuous taking mode.


This is my desk place, I enjoyed working there.

Time flies… It has been 3 months and 2 weeks I put my time and efforts in my work with Deloitte. It’s just like my another home here.

I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere gratitude and appreciation to the people who have came across in my life in this fulfilling and knowledgeable based journey in Deloitte.


1. To my master and my Group A1 members for their guidance in teaching me the ethnics and imparting their knowledge and experience to me in taxation profession.
2. To all my colleagues for all the friendship, affection and support through ups and downs.

Thank you for the supports and advices given to me during my vacation training in Deloitte and I will always remember your kind gratitude and gestures in my heart.

All these experience have made me a stronger and a better person and it is a great stepping stone for me to have myself prepared for my next challenges in my future.
