Good Morning folks.
One storm has passed and the other has started its job. Unfortunately for those living in Metro Manila, this means that the urban ocean will rise again. The traffic will worsen and sunshine will take its day-off.
Today started as a normal rainy day. You wake up at 5 in the morning. You switch the television on for the news hoping that work will be suspended. After a couple of minutes, you realize that work is a go-go and if you don’t move your ass off the couch, you’ll be late for work; so you heat the water for coffee, take a bath and have your breakfast. When you get to your room, you’ll immediately check your phone for messages of work suspension and see that there’s nothing. You prepare yourself for office. You wear slippers and pack your leather shoes instead. The ride to work is both wet with rain and sweat. Puddles are everywhere. You feel sorry for the people on the sidewalk who get splashed on by the rushing vehicles. You are still early for work and the office is a bit empty.
Here is the thing that made this day a bit different. Your office floor has no internet connection! Luckily, you have access to the client’s WiFi from the neighboring building (sorry clients! gotta hitch). You connected to the office network through your remote access but there’s still none. Your coworkers come one by one. You chat with them and the day goes.
That is how my day is going so far. Have a nice day. 🙂
UPDATE: The internet connection at the office was back on 9:53am.
