That’s it!! enough!

Am so sick of being here living here everyday!! dealing with this shit on daily basis
dealing with nonprofessional people all the time! working with inequality people!!!
professionalism is missing from our life! in the street in work in the mall at any place you may go to!
customer service is just a word we speak!
day after day I become more disappointed about the whole situation here, I cant see any hope for the future
for this country to get better!!
as long as the majority here had no quality we will never change or get better!
for an example and believe me there are millions of them, if I started to talk I will never shut down!

Went to Reebok with my friend at Mecca mall to buy some stuff, so at the cache a girl working there told us that they are missing the serial number of this item so she cant provide us with price!!!
then with confidence she said please come tomorrow in order to have it we will have the price ready!!!
What the fuck r u talking about!!! come tomorrow! the item price is 75JD not 2JD from Abu 3abid store!!!
I told her noway we are coming back! call your stupid managers of you to get the price!!
then she said our HQ is at Dubai!!!
So what call them!!!
she found it easier for us to come tomorrow instead of calling her stupid managers at Dubai!!
fuck them man!! I regret the moment I went to buy something from there!

OK different story, recently am looking for a car, so I went to Opel to see their cars, while am there some of their cars does not seem like brand new, so I asked the guy working there,
are all cars here new or there are some used cars?
then he gave me the “Dawaween” look with the “dawaween” accent said “Inta sho ra2yak?!??!”
I replied am very sorry thanks for your support see you later.
he didnt even try to say anything and left away!

I worked in many companies in my life, and am wondering how the hell most of them secure good
titles and salaries!
the hell they dont know what they doing!!! most of them are inequality and not even close to professionalism!
Am not asking for perfection but at least something normal!!!

here you cant work like normal people!! I really wish to had a real job someday with a real smart people,
people who are looking for change looking for future, not people living in a daily basis chaos!

If you want to eat at any restaurant here in Jordan either low or high class, service sucks all the time, from the moment you pace inside to the moment you leave

Seriously I don’t wanna live among this community no more,, I really dunno how to break through?
please don’t tell me to try to change it, cause its a hopeless case, it’s a lose-lose situation!

Am so sad it was destined for me to born and live here, am so sad!!
really this is enough :(

  • Advices for freshmen seeking jobs

    Where to go where to work and what is the best for you?
    let me talk about myself here,
    I studied Computer science as my major and banking and finance as a minor.
    while studying at university you keep on dreaming that you will find the perfect job
    directly after you finish as you carry a computer science degree!!!
    then reality hits!!!
    the Jordanian market is fully occupied with people holding the same degree, and the salaries scales are very low!
    you get confused and lost, is it fair to work for 180JD ?? is this what I spent 4 years for?? just 180JD!!!
    that is not enough for me to go and come back from work!!
    was computer science the wrong major I went into??
    then I decided to change my stream after reading books for months while sitting home, and all in vain!
    sales sales sales :) we will pay you good, you will get extra money as you work harder, and you will meet with many people!
    Thats good i guess, screw programming and all software companies who’s wanting to suck my blood!
