We Spent Time Together


For many days, I never hanging out with my daughter Ara, never walking around Court Street and doing sight seen. Winter season was very cold. I couldn't stand outside without wearing winter coat and feeling frozen. It was also hard for Ara to go outside when she felt uncomfortable with her big winter coat. That’s why I stayed at home and played with her in my comfy apartment to watch snowflake fallen from the sky. We felt warm.

Flour power cupcakes
Yesterday was a breezy sunny day. The wind was cold, but the sunlight kept me feel warm. I went to OU-mini farmer's market in OU Howard Park, near the green statue. There were a lot of local vendors. They sold many things such as bakery, cake, pretzel, jellies, and many more. At the first time I just planned to sight seen, until I met the lady who sold flour power cupcakes.  I bought her brownies. When I saw cupcake, I suddenly remembered that I ever read information about these cupcakes in B Magazine. It was made me curious to know how delicious these cupcakes. Because of that, I bought one beautiful cupcake.

The sun was bright. I felt warm enough to sight seen on Court Street. Since several days ago, I wanted to go to Family Dollar, one of department stores in Athens. Then I walked to Family Dollar through Court Street, my favorite spot in Athens. I looked around. There were food trucks that sold many delicious foods including Buritto, Ali Baba, and the new one, that I forget its name. Court Street was very crowd. In the afternoon, restaurants and food cafes were full of people. I tried to recognize some restaurants that I ever read in Athens News. I felt very happy when I remember those restaurants.

Family Dollar is located in E Carpenter Street. It's quit far from Court Street. I was looking for puzzles and some stuff. At that place, I got a nice headband while Ara yelled out loud. She refused to sit on her stroller, then I tried to play with her and to put the headband on her head, but she always threw it away. Furthermore, I grabbed a flip phone toy. It was works. She sat and played with the toy.

I had a chance to choose puzzles, armband, and some stuff when she bored and started to stand on her stroller. I untied her. She laughed very happy and walked around near by my side. I thought she wanted to stand near my position. She forgot her flip phone toy when she saw a bunching ball. She cried aloud as a sign that she wanted to touch the ball. I was so happy when I gave it to her. You know why? That’s because the ball is cheaper than the flip phone.

I succeed to put the headband on her head while she was playing a bunching ball. She brought the ball and went to cashier. I was so happy when I got all stuffs that i need. I thought I didn't have to buy a flip phone. Hehehe.. (*)

Dapat Kiriman Moneygram

Ini adalah pengalaman pertama saya mendapatkan kiriman uang dari luar negeri. Sedikit norak dan kampungan sih. Tapi tak ada salahnya membaginya di sini. Setelah saya googling di internet kurang yang mau berbagi pengalaman tentang transferan luar negerinya. Nah, karena Kak Yusran yang bersekolah di Amerika berniat mengirimi saya uang buat tiket ke Bau-Bau, maka dia akhirnya mengirimkan uang. Dalam bentuk dollar lewat jasa layanan Moneygram yang banyak tersedia di supermarket di Amerika. Moneygram sama seperti Western Union. Tapi Western Union lebih merakyat. Mereka bekerja sama dengan kantor Pegadaian dan kantor pos. Sehingga di kampungku pun ada fasilitas Western Union (tapi saya belum tahu berfungsi atau tidak). Moneygram sendiri setahu saya hanya bekerja sama dengan beberapa bank. Saya belum pernah tahu kalo Moneygram juga sudah bekerja sama dengan kantor pos, meskipun informasi dari teman-teman di twitter mengatakan demikian. Jasa layanan pengiriman uang macam Moneygram dan Western ...

Melayani dan Terlayani

Saya seorang customer service. Memberi pelayanan sudah menjadi kewajiban saya. Ketika saya memberikan pelayanan maksimal dan nasabah terpuaskan maka target pencapaian dari resultku adalah 100%. Dan itu adalah sesuatu yang sangat biasa. Tak ada yang menjadi istimewa di kondisi itu. Karena tugas customer service adalah tugas pelayan. Menanyakan apa permintaan nasabah dan menghadirkan kondisi tersebut dengan cepat, tepat, dan akurat. Namun tak jarang, customer berada di titik ekspektasi terlalu tinggi, sedangkan kenyataan di lapangan pelayan nasabah tak mampu memberikan hingga mencapai titik ekspektasi tersebut. Perbedaan antara das sein dan das solen inilah yang kadang membuat customer merasa tak terlayani. Level kepuasan mereka tak mencapai titik tertinggi. Bahkan di titik paling ekstrem, terkadang nasabah melakukan langkah taktis berupa penarikan secara besar-besar hingga berhenti menggunakan jasa yang diberikan karena hilangnya sebuah kepercayaan. Semua disebabkan pada sebuah pelayana...
