Have you ever come across them? Don’t you just hate it when you’ve found prime, CHEAP parking in KL right in front of your destination and suddenly realise you can’t get a damn ticket?

One week, I had to go to BV practically every morning for some reason or other. I am so ashamed that BV is my second home. It really is, what a life!

Anyway, with baby in tow bright and early when it is possible to get CHEAP parking, I got my prime spot.

And then couldn’t get my ticket. I looked around for the next parking machine and walked ALLLLLLLLL the way there carrying baby and then walked ALLLLLLLLL the way back to put the damn ticket into the car. Then instead of strutting in a huff straight to my destination, I picked up the phone and called the parking machine people to tell them to FIX the thing.

Now how many Malaysians really do that? How many people really care enough to make a report of a water leak from the public drain or call DBKL to fix up a manhole that’s gotten its cover stolen?

Well, I’m the sucker who’s always making these God damn calls?!!!

I do it because I love my country and I believe that it takes effort to make things work and so I do my part. If I lead by example, hopefully people will re-consider their lackadaisical attitudes and start being more responsible. But mostly, I do it for my children. I not only want them to learn the right thing to do (despite everyone else NOT doing it), I want them to have a better place. To make change, one has to start within. Effect change with baby steps. Gosh, that does sound preachy, doesn’t it? Sorry, not intended.

At 815am, I called the bloody number on the signboard that couldn’t even stand straight (which reminds me, did anyone read about the huge highway road signboard that fell near KLIA this week?). Nobody answered. I must have called at least 7 times with it ringing to the end before I got some response. What time do these guys start work again?

By then, I was already hot and bothered. It wasn’t fun walking around carrying a baby, a diaper bag with phone to my ear; at the same time being vigilant for snatch thieves and acid throwers and what have you.

But yes! I made a report (albeit in an irritated tone! well, they should have picked up the phone!) and the next morning, I parked at a similar spot and the machine WAS working.
