guy77 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 went gain city to finalise my tv and microwave oven purchase after meeting uncle this is the microwave i bought. the previous model i wanted no more stock. this cost $349, added $21 for extra 2 yrs warranty settled for samsung 37 inch tv. did not take the $200 voucher offer as the price without the voucher is cheaper. extended warranty for my washing machine (4 yrs- $123) and fridge (4 years - $60) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 ya lor. seeing him gives me the assurance. and he keep on telling me and my parents all will be good. he even told my mother no need to come everyday but my mother told him that she came everyday to buy drinks for the workers. uncle and his brother very touched. working in their line not easy. if those engaging uncle, please remind him to eat meals la. So sweet. Your mom also very good... not easy to go everyday. But like that the workers will also be happy and not give black face. It's not easy to do manual work in places without fan/air con... the only consolation is that they are not under the sun. There was once it was 11pm and Uncle hadn't eaten.... haiz. I like your microwave! Looks like it has a good height... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guy77 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 ya. but still warm without fan. and the weather these days hot also. no doubt I am uncle's customer. but seeing him not eating also makes me not comfortable. i also dun wan him to have health problems. and hopefully sunday he will get his deserved rest. the microwave looks chio also. keke. i wanna explore its function when i got it. but it is very big sized leh. 40 cm long. asked uncle if can fit into my cabinet top and he said no problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

growler 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 Guy: If you don't want tiles for the room, you need to inform Ah How before the tiling of the room starts. I think they will start at the kitchen first, then toilet then room from outside to inside. Ah How is very merticulous and he takes the effort to align the tiles, lines etc. The other uncle is a very quick worker but sometimes cut abit of corner lar ...

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 Ya I like Ah How also... he's the bigger sized Malaysian tiler right? He's very nice. My mom called him UNCLE and I scolded her!! He's so young compared to her! I think I know who the older Uncle is... A few times I caught him flirting with girls on his HP while doing work. LOL As long as the work is done I don't care.

That is another small problem we are facing as well.. $$ parked for renov, wedding preparation and some big items like fridge, washing machine TV etc. Small items like cleaning tools, rice cooker, kettle etc haven't factor in.. We have to equip the house slowly to prevent us from overspend.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
