Sigh ... somehow I got irritated by some sales folks who likes to touch on your personal life in order to make you buy their products. Well, I just join a network marketing company, merely to consume their products as well as slowly build up my network for retirement as a side-income if possible, but somehow my uplines tend to be very aggressive and even mentioned things like you are doing it for your family sake and etc etc ...which they tried to make me feel guilty if I didn't join them for their meetings on my rest days. I have nothing against network marketing as I really likes their products (though not all are good in terms of price) but I tend to dislikes some money-minded sales talk. I prefer to try it out first and if its good, then I introduce to my friends oe relatives rather than like a street medicine peddlers who boasts on about their products. Now I know why most folks tend to run away from network marketers...LOL.
I remember there was a time back in my mid-twenties where a relative tried to sell me insurance. She was so desperate in getting me to buy until even mentioned I will be more filial piety by buying an insurance should anything happens to me. Aiyo..I was like ..come on..do you need to say such thing to sell ? I ended up buying a small portion from her but I bought an insurance from another lady few years later, who was more professional where she explained clearly to me on the pros and cons. I bought almost 7 times more than what I have bought from that relative! Now, I will only look for this lady whenever I wanted to invest.
Anyway, on the other hand, my colleagues got hook up to the set meals in Hard Rock Cafe at Universal Studio, which costs only S$15 for the following and delicious meals.
 |
| Hard Rock Cafe at Universal Studio, Singapore |
 |
| Salad for appetiser |
 |
| Another option is to choose a thick mushroom cream soup... yummy |
 |
| Fish and Chips .. There's a lot of meat in the fish and the chips was nicely fried. |
 |
| I had a Hainanese Pork Chop and I can't finish everything! |
 |
| Dessert - Haagen-Dazs ice-cream |
With a free flow drink, soup or salad, main meal and dessert from Hard Rock, I guess for S$15 nett, it's worth it ! :)
I have to admit that we also tried the HardRock Cafe a few times.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,
Filip
Filip - did you guys like it ?
Deleteyeah.. that is why i do not like those MLM, insurance, telemarketing etc kind of thing, especially those very aggressive ones.. at times i do feel irritated with their push of sales, all in their mind are just sales and quotas - all they have in mind is to get you buy from them..
ReplyDeleteof course it's unfair to stereotype due to just some black sheep we have met lah.. there are still some good insurance agencies that i have met who are helpful and considerate too, and those are whom i continue supporting them.. and i totally understand how you feel when you are being "bombarded" by those aggressive ones, come on, what you think may not be what i think right?? :)
ReplyDeleteSK - The saddest part is some of them are your friends. After they approach me, the friendship seems affected.
Deleteoh, nice one at Hard Rock and not bad with just a S$15 charge on that three course meal, somemore with free flow drinks.. the fish and chips looked good.. but no coffee for you?? hehe :)
ReplyDeleteSK - I had my fix at starbucks later . Lol
DeleteYea, i don't like people to bug me for sales too, especially those closer ones, very awkward :(
ReplyDeleteKen - true ... That's why I only entertain my relative by buying a small portion. And the relationship seems affected.
DeleteAiyor....go Hard Rock eat Hainanese chicken? Sure or not? Better go Middle Road, eat Swee Kee's lah...
ReplyDeleteSTP - the pork chop not bad leh
DeleteOops...you had pork! Did not see properly. SIN$15 per meal? *faints* That's around RM40, can feed the whole family here. Hehehehehe!!!!
ReplyDeleteSTP - cannot compare like that la..lol
DeleteOhhhh...it's a set lunch, SIN$15 for 4 courses. Ok lah...that little cup of HD ice cream, is already over RM10 at 7-11...so not bad lah like that.
ReplyDeleteSTP - so, worth hor ?
DeleteYummy food!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I hate pushy sales people too
Lina - Not all sales folks are bad ...There are those good ones who try to help.
DeleteVery worth it!! I will tell them to look out for it.. hahaaaa..
ReplyDeleteYes, I don't like those MLM... and normally I ended up not selling anything and losing some money for membership.. I rather buy when I need... Dont join that one la.. just buy when you want to eat... no stress! After all, you are not hardup for money... yes???>
Reana - ok la .. The products not bad. I can try as a long term side income.
DeleteSK - it's not all but just some of them who can be a real pain.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to say this but I cannot tahan marketing ppl in general esp when they are determined to sell u something and no matter how u try to run away, they are there. LOL.
ReplyDeleteBaby Sumo - Yeah but then they also sell for a living . Probably it helps if they know how to manage their clients and be more of a service.
ReplyDeleteWhich MLM company you just joined? I like MLM products!! I have joined several over the years, but I have given up doing MLM - I'm simply not suitable for this type of business. Even a feng shui consultant told me that MLM is not for me. So I quit. LOL!
ReplyDeleteFoongpc - I guess I am just like you ..haha
ReplyDeleteoh yes i love everything in Hard Rock.
ReplyDeleteI love Hard Rocks! The harder the rock is the better! Muahahaha
ReplyDeleteI always give these insurance and MLM sellers a chance to talk. I seldom bought but they always shook my hands happily with the sales talk I imparted. Hey, I am an aggressive salesman too. BEWARE!
TM - haha ..you must be an aggressive but professional salesman, unlike those desperate to close a sale and mumble out irritating words.
ReplyDeleteHard Rock meals are usually very big portion... But I have try the local HR meals, only tried those oversea.. Wonder are they similar? :p
