OK OK
back to.... my work....
SO bloody hard to get singaporeans to do a survey...
even when "gifts" are given to them as a compasation for their time
Imagine....
$5 starbucks for 20 to 30 min of your time on beer consumption
Ok.. i admit that it is not that attractive but being a consumer , shouldn't u feel proud that the company are doing project to help improve their quality and YOU can be a part of the cynics?
Bah.. YOu can FINALLY have a SAY
Your ... Used to be... unless opinion that you can only mur mur to yourself... can now be... given a chance to be expressed and maybe realise
but NO... YOU had to Reject all the poor interviewer.....
Relentless pusuit of your "HUmble" Opinion but ... How many of you even have the manners?
Can't refuse politely... and is not as if we are Selling anything to you...
we just doing a FREAking survey and YOU had to spoil everything.......
"Excuse me sir... mind helping me do a survey on beer consumption?"
"Only short 20 min and you get a $5 starbuck vouncher"
