nike

i always make it a point never to buy products from nike.. especially their soccer boots..

the lifespan of their soccer boots never exceed 3 months for me and they're rather expensive

to start off with.. so when jay said he had nike vouchers, i was rather pensieve about

purchasing anything from them.

surprising enough, while at their outlet, we were treated to rather good service. ok, so it was better than 'rather good'. it was excellent.. the salesgirl was not only helpful and friendly but spontaneous in her actions. she reacted with poise and little hesitance to help us, even though she was busy with many other customers..

critics say the service standards in singapore are poor. well, the critics say that everything in singapore is poor.. from the soccer, to toilet cleaniness.. i think our mindsets are clouded by these expectations of excellence and perfection that we ourselves forget that we are too well off for our own good. so we shall start giving thanks and praise where it is deserved and cut back from those who already have received too much attention to fill their bloated heads.

spence.(and jay too)
