Don't Worry Be Happy

I was billed Php 1,500 annual fee for my HSBC credit card, whoah! I am not paying for that as I usually do. So I called HSBC hotline yesterday to waive it. They have new policy now compared last year. You need to purchase at least Php 5K worth of anything to get waived; last year you just have to swipe/use your card 5 times. Wise decision, Php 5K is too much to some they will earn interest.

So I called 85-800, a lady attended my call and then left her goodbye and thank you. After the call I shouted “Oh no, I have to go shopping!”, then sang out loud this song in my mind – Don’t Worry Be Happy (Bobby McFerrin). I sang it with full emotion while flicking my fingers. It took me around 10 seconds until I realized somebody was laughing. It was the agent’s voice coming from the phone’s loud speaker. She told me I can hang the phone now and I said I’m sorry. I mistakenly pressed the loud speaker!!! I was ashamed of myself.

That what happens when LSS attacks (Last Song Syndrome). Too bad, it wasn’t a talent manager who I called up. If it was, I should have had my Araneta concert next month.

Cheers!
