Me = Bane
My goal for the next few months is to create a reputation for myself that will inspire fear and loathing in the travel office people. On a scale of 1 to 10, I am currently scoring a very respectable 8 in the fear and loathing axis.
A 10 would be when they stop answering my emails.
You say, "Pfft, it's so easy peasy to inspire fear and loathing!"
But I beg to differ. You see, in order to inspire TRULY inspirational fear and loathing one must do the following:
(1) Change my flights a minimum of two (preferably more) times a day
(2) Delay answering their frantic emails to confirm my flights until the last minute where I then deluge them with 10 consecutive emails to see whether my flights have been confirmed
(3) Give very vague and deliberately unhelpful answers to their questions, e.g.:
Travel Agent: There are two flight options, one with a stopover and the other a direct flight but leaving at a later time. Please advise on preferred option so that we may make the appropriate booking.
Me: Yes please go ahead and confirm booking.
(4) Demand absurd things
Me: I want a car from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur
Travel Agent: I'm afraid there may be a mistake in your email, I've arranged for a car from the Singapore airport to CBD
Me: Sorry which part of my email was not clear enough. I want a CAR from SINGAPORE CHANGI AIRPORT to KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT
Travel Agent: *Dulan*
