G1BO

I just read this email msg from one of my college friends and it's about Mr. Gilbert "G1BO" Teodoro Jr.

We have 1 more day left to think about who we're going to vote for...this is something I want to share with you so we can all make the right decision for our country. I am not insisting you guys to vote for G1BO but I'm just sharing what other people think of him and why we also share the same thoughts with them.

===========================================================================
I stumbled upon this in my inbox.
A good read. The young girl made a lot of sense!

---
a friend forwarded this material with this note . . .


I realize that some of you have already decided on your own candidate for President, but I'm forwarding you this e-mail written by a 19 year old so that we may all have the opportunity to see others in a different light.
Let's make sure that we are able to assess our candidate properly. We deserve the candidate that we vote.

CHARACTER
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

How the candidates handle their campaign speaks volume on how they will handle this nation. It’s sad to see that this campaign period, though already in the 21st century, is still much uncivilized. Someone said it’s the dirtiest campaign since 1960s. Campaigning for the presidency should not be fueled by hatred or anger. It shouldn’t be focused on mudslinging or maligning your opponents. The way other presidentiable’s handle their campaign is very insulting to the Filipinos. I think we deserve more than the negative campaigning they are throwing daily at our face through the mainstream media. How can these presidentiables bring positive change if their campaigns are fueled by hate, anger, and mudslinging?

“For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.”

Matthew 12:34

Before the campaign started, I recall that these candidates promised to be always positive in their campaigns. Above all them, only Gibo stood to this promise. Until now, he stands on his promise and has executed positive campaigning. He refrained from putting down his opponents by saying bad things against them. Even though he’s been targeted from within his own party and from without, he still refuse to break his own principle of positive campaigning. He indeed embodies a new breed of politics.

“A man who lacks judgment derides his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds his tongue.”

Proverbs 11:12

Though Gibo is not a biblical Christian, his campaign showed christian traits...not driven by hatred, no mudslinging, no badmouthing, very professional. I remember the Good Samaritan story. It wasn't the Jews who were declared righteous, but the Samaritan. Why? Because his acts are righteous.

“Gibo maintains the highest form of professionalism in his campaign.”

– REP. CYNTHIA VILLAR (Wife of Presidentiable Manny Villar)

http://www.facebook .com/video/ video.php? v=1384925307040&ref=share

“Teodoro is the only presidential candidate with the three important attributes a good president must have, integrity, competence and character”

– BISHOP OSCAR CRUZ (a known GMA critic)

http://gibo. ph/updatefull. aspx?key= hTJHb6hTvttNWkRc 8CLLf7n+ySFtHSou FlTuCNvYONczGm/ ru+UYyQ==

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

COMPETENCE

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

“Choose wise, understanding, and knowledgeable men from among your tribes, and I will make them heads over you.”

Deuteronomy 1:13

It’s sad to know that numerous people used to trade
intelligence, knowledge, and ability over popularity and some empty slogan. Yet the Bible made a great emphasis on these things in choosing leaders. First above all requirements in bagging this top job must be competence. In all job applications, competence is the default priority requirement. We don’t just choose someone who will come up and say great words which are not backed up by their track records.

Obviously, among the 8 presidentiables, the most competent is Gibo. It’s very clear that even blind people can see that he’s the brightest among them all. Yes, even his opponents acknowledge this.

Look at what his fellow public officials and top personalities are saying about Gibo:

“Dependable, thoroughly professional, incomparably competent…”

– Former PRESIDENT FIDEL V. RAMOS

http://www.youtube. com/watch? v=Wj22UyPROZ0

“personal background wise, Gibo is the most qualified among presidential aspirants.”

– SEN. MIRIAM DEFENSOR-SANTIAGO

http://www.philstar .com/Article. aspx?articleid= 505964

“the most qualified person”
“Gibo is an upright man, intelligent, articulate. I have high respect for him,”

– Former PRESIDENT JOSEPH “Erap” ESTRADA

http://newsinfo. inquirer. net/inquirerhead lines/nation/ view/20100415- 264346/Estrada- on-Teodoro- What-a-pity- hes-most- qualified

“With Gibo, you can sleep well knowing that the government is in good hands.”

– SEN. JUAN PONCE ENRILE

http://newsinfo. inquirer. net/breakingnews /nation/view/ 20091227- 244190/Enrile- If-not-Estrada- its-Teodoro- for-me

“Gibo is a decent and qualified candidate. That much I can say because I know him personally. We worked together when I was still lieutenant colonel and I’ve got nothing to say against him.”

– SEN. PING LACSON

http://www.philstar .com/Article. aspx?articleid= 505964

"Gibo is the true jewel of the cabinet."

– SEN. RALPH RECTO:

http://www.gmanews. tv/story/ 185858/gibo- recto-exchange- praises-in- bukidnon- festival

“I believe that Secretary Teodoro is the most effective and most competent candidate for president who will bring the best program of reform to Mindanao,”

–ESMAEL 'TOTO' MANGUNDADATU, VICE-MAYOR Buluan town

http://www.philstar .com/Article. aspx?articleid= 547108, http://www.angtinig .com/mangudadatu -sees-gibo- as-mindanaos- best-hope/

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

PLATFORM

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

Gibo’s platform is a cut above the rest. His platform is crystal clear and realistic.
He does not suffer from the messianic disease which infected the other candidates. They claim to be greater than Jesus. They claim to eradicate poverty and corruption in six years which even Jesus wasn't able to and can't do in this present world. He needs to make a new earth to make that happen. Erase corruption and poverty? Those are pure LIES. No one, when you read the Bible, can do that in this fallen world. They promise big words without clear platform on how to bring progress in this country.

Instead of laying their platforms, the “leading” presidentiables are banking on Pres. Gloria Arroyo’s low rating. It is funny that these candidates should be thankful to PGMA because without her “bad reputation”, they have nothing to base their candidacy.

I thoroughly understand that
you can’t lead people without a vision and a clear plan on how to fulfill that vision. Empty rhetoric will lead you to nowhere. This nation if led by someone without a vision and a plan will only be reduced to chaos. That is why the candidate’s vision and platforms are very crucial in choosing whom to vote.

Did you ever give enough time and effort just to know your chosen candidate’s vision and platform? Did you ever compare it to the other candidates?


“Mr. Teodoro pointed out specific programs, specific goals and specific time lines to achieve such goals. He’s very articulate.. . we think he’s very good."

– ALBERTO A. LIM, Makati Business Club (MBC) executive director
http://www.bworldon line.com/ weekender/ content.php? id=6522

“As usual Gibo (Teodoro) was MOST IMPRESSIVE.”
Speaking to reporters after yesterday’s presidential debate, Dee said Teodoro’s platform and answers stood out against other aspirants who attended the forum.
– DONALD DEE
Vice Chairman, Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

CHARISMA

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

Throughout history, great leaders always have a high level of charisma. Wherever he goes, when people see him and hear him, they tend to be attracted to him. He used to inspire people to go beyond the status quo, to go beyond which is mediocre.

In building this nation, unity is of utmost importance. We need a leader
who can unite us together and lead us forward to our great destiny as a nation. Most of the presidentiables are very divisive. And most of them have already entered into a verbal war against each other. How can they unite this nation if they have planted much division right now in their campaigns? The only one who has the biggest chance to unite this nation is the one who is able to restrain himself from resorting to bad-mouthing, mudslinging, hatred and anger. And that is Gibo.

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

How about PGMA?

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ------

Actually, majority of people know in their hearts that indeed Gibo is the most qualified for the presidency. The only thing which holds them back is his association with President Gloria M. Arroyo. It is highly proven; even acknowledged by his opponents that Gibo’s integrity is untainted. To judge him just because he is under the administration is totally unfair. If the same standard of judgment be used against all of us, then we will never be chosen for any kind of job. Why? Because I bet all of us have one way or the other have “evil” associations.
Jesus was with Judas for more than 3 years. Does it mean Jesus equals Judas? This only needs minimal common sense to arrive at the right conclusion.

MY CONCLUSION
:

As a student, I was thought that before making any decisions, or hiring a person, weigh all the credentials and who among the applicants has the tools and programs that can lead to better tomorrow. Decide whom you thinks is the greatest with regards to character, competence, platform, and charisma rather than being tossed by every wind that comes along.

Think, which is more important,
TO HIRE THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB? or TO HIRE THE WRONG PERSON FOR THE JOB?

lets hire the RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB not HIRE A PERSON BECAUSE HE WAS THROWN BY EMOTIONS. Lets hire a person with substance not style.

Tough time requires strong leadership and there is not time for on-the-job-training .

As for me, I’m placing my vote to Sec. Gilbert Teodoro, Jr. I can say he is indeed a rare kind in Philippine politics. Win or lose, I don’t care. At least I have a clear conscience that I voted the best man for the job. At least I won’t be having some kind of guilt and regret when our country is again under the leadership of incompetent ones. Actually it is never Gibo’s loss when he loses. It is the country’s loss.

IF YOU CARE FOR MY FUTURE AND WE SHARE THE SAME VIEW, PLEASE HELP ME PASS ON THIS EMAIL.

LASTLY:

1. I dont hire a person because his accomplishment is being a son of former senator and president.

2. I dont hire a person because my emotion dictates more than my rational being.

3. If we hire a person without experience to take care of our future, what do we get in return?

It is like you own a company, do you trust a person to manage your company without experience? or with experience?

100% you will tell me that I will hire a person WITH EXPERIENCE.

4. I am young but I wont trust a person TO TAKE CARE OF MY FUTURE because his mom just died, emotions are high and we let him become president.

5. He has "clean image" because he prefer to say at the side, he prefer to just keep silent. Maybe if he become president, he will just be as silent as when he was a congressman and senator.

7. He should have walk his talk not talk and forget.

Hard to believe: Rapes on Emirates Airlines

Be careful and don't follow strangers on plane, if they need help, ask them to approach the stewardess. I really find it hard to believe such incidents can happen in the plane.

But nothing is impossible nowadays. So for any of you or your spouse who is traveling alone, just take note of this.

Actually there are a lot of Saudi rape and abuse cases reported in newspapers. Their govt. will protect their own citizens and usually turn a blind eye towards the victims (foreigners) or even jail them for supposedly making false accusations. The most horrific incident has recently occurred on an Emirates Airlines and the culprits have gotten away with it. The worst thing about this case is that this is the 4th case to have happened on this airline.

During
the Christmas of 2005, Emirates Airline made it's regular flight from Dubai to Manila . However, 4 hours into the flight, most passengers were sleeping or dozing off. A man approached a lady who was alone and asked her to assist his child in the bathroom. Not thinking much the lady followed the gentleman to the rear of the plane.

Immediately she was grabbed by the man's 3 accomplices who immediately gagged and taped her mouth and then went on to rape her in the back area of the craft while 2 kept watch, 2 others molested and raped her.

After they had all had their turn, they forced her to drink a drug- laced drink and escorted her to her seat. She had been knocked off until she arrived in Manila by which time the 4 men had disembarked and gotten away.

This is a repeat case of the same thing that happened on a flight from Dubai to Mumbai on an Emirates Airlines. The Emirates staff are aware of this, but when the staff have some suspicion of some incident taking place they make it a point to avoid going to the back of the plane.

However, the worst case of a rape victim on an Emirates flight was on a flight from Bangkok to Dubai . The lady was not only raped on flight but she was taken thru immigration into Dubai and raped for several days and then later on sold to the underground.

Please pass this on to all females who travel alone.

Duty Free Employees Scam Passengers

I got this from my former officemate...


This is not a scam, apparently it is in an online news, a British couple
is seeking legal actions for falling victims to this scam.


Bangkok Int'l Airport Scam

Unbelievable, but please be aware..... All those who travel a lot, please be very, very careful. Read ahead...


An Indian was detained in Bangkok for stealing a box of cigarettes in a duty-free shop in Bangkok International Airport. He had paid for chocolates and a carton of cigarettes. The cashier put a packet of cigarettes extra into his bag and he thought it was a free pack. He was arrested for shop-lifting and the Thai Police extortion price was 30,000 Baht for his release.

  • He spent two nights in jail and paid 500 Baht for an air-conditioned cell, 200-300 baht for each visitor, and 11,000 baht for his final release.
  • The Police shared the money in front of his eyes.
  • On top of that, he was charged in court and fined 2,000 baht by the magistrate and handcuffed and escorted to his plane.
  • His passport was stamped "Thief".
  • While there, his relatives requested help from the Indian Embassy and was told that they are helpless.

Many Asians are victimised similarly daily and letters and phone-calls to the Thai authorities are ignored.

  • He shared a cell with a Singaporean the first night who paid 60,000 baht for his release.
  • The second night was a Malaysian national who paid 70,000 baht.
  • Mind you this was not in a shanty shop in downtown Bangkok but in a duty free shop at the Bangkok Int'l Airport .

BE WARNED.

The above 100% correct information because Mr.Rajan Khera's customer from India faced
exactly the same scenario mentioned above when he was in transit at Bangkok Int'l Airport coming to Taipei.

Someone who went through the same ordeal in Dubai.
He bought stuff at the Duty Free upon entering.
The girl at Duty Free put a bottle of cologne in his shopping bag (he did not even see it happen).
He was arrested for stealing ( this is before he even picked up his luggage ). He sat at the airport jail
(where he was harassed for the whole day. (NO FOOD, NO WATER) for one day and only after he paid a fine (bribe ? of US 500..). That is all the cash he had in his pocket at the time. They let him go. These are scams that are happening all over the place.

Please BE CAREFUL! All of this is pre-planned and the people who work at the airport know who to target.

Unbelievable but apply caution .... the duty free employees intentionally put extra items to scam the passengers...

Ninoy's letter to his daughter Ballsy

August 18, 1973
FortBonifacio
Makati,
Rizal

Ms. Maria Elena C. Aquino
25 Times St. Quezon
City

My dearest Ballsy,


I write you this letter with tears in my eyes and as if steel fingers are crushing my heart because I wanted so much to be with you as you celebrate your legal emancipation. Now that you have come of age, my love, a voice tells me that I am no longer young and suddenly, I feel old. An old poet gave this advice very long ago “when you are sad, remember the roses will bloom in December.” I want to send you bouquet of roses, big red roses from my dreamland garden. Unfortunately for the present, my roses are not in bloom, in fact they have dropped all their petals and only the thorns are left to keep me company. I do think it is fitting to send you a thicket of thorns on this memorable day! I am very proud of you because you have inherited all the best traits of your mother. You are sensible, responsible, even-tempered and sincere with the least pretenses and affection which vehemently detest in a woman. I am sure like your mother,you will possess that rare brand of silent courage and that combination of fidelity and fortitude that will be the life vest of your man in the tragic moments of his life.


During my lonely hours of solitary confinement in FortMagsaysay, Laur, Nueva Ecija last March and April with nothing else to do but pray and daydream, with only my fond memories to keep me company, I planned a weekend barrio fiesta for you in Tarlac for your 18th birthday. I fooled myself into believing that my ordeal would end with the fiscal year. I planned to invite all your classmates and friends and their families for the weekends. The schedule called for an early departure by bus from Manila and the first stop will be Concepcion, where lunch will be served by the pool. And after lunch, you were to visit the SantaRitaElementary School to distribute cookies and ice cream to the children of that public school where you were first enrolled. I guess sheer nostalgia prompted me to include Santa Rita. We were only three then: Mommie, you and I. Those were the days of happy memories little responsibilities, tremendous freedom, a great future ahead and capped by a fulfillment of love. You are the first fruit of our union, the first proof of our love and the first seal of our affections. From Concepcion we were to proceed to Luisita for the barrio fiesta. I intended to invite a friend who could roast an entire cow succulently. Swimming, pelota, dancing and eating would have been the order of the day. Sunday morning was reserved for a trip around the Hacienda and the mill and maybe golf for some of the parents and later a picnic-lunch on Uncle Tony’s Island. Return to Manila after lunch. I am afraid this will have to remain as one of the many dreams I had in Laur.


Our future has suddenly become uncertain and our fate unknown. I am even now beginning to doubt whether I’ll ever be able to return to you and the family. Hence, I would like to ask you these special favors.

Love your mother, whose love for you, you will never be able to match. She is not the greatest mother in the world, she is your sincerest friend. Take care of your younger sisters and brother and lavish them with the love and care I would like to continue giving them but am unable to do so. Help Noy-noy along and pray hard that he will grow to be a real, responsible man who in later years will protect you all. You are the model for your three younger sisters. Your responsibility is therefore great. Please endeavor to live up to our highest expectations. Be more tolerant to Pinky, more accessible to Viel, our little genius-princess, and more charitable to Krissy, our baby doll, and make up for my neglect. Finally, forgive me, my love, for not having been an ideal, good and thoughtful father to you all as I pursued public office. I had hopes and high resolve of making up, but I am afraid my destiny will not oblige.



I seal this letter with a drop of tear and a prayer in my heart, that somehow, somewhere we shall meet again and I will finally be able to make up for all my lapses, in the kingdom where justice reigns supreme and love is eternal.



I love you,

Dad

10 Ways To Marry The Wrong Person

10 Ways To Marry The Wrong Person
by Rabbi Dov Heller, M.A.

With the divorce rate over 50 percent, too many are apparently making a serious mistake in deciding who to spend the rest of their life with. To avoid becoming a "statistic," try to internalize these 10 insights.

#1. You pick the wrong person because you expect him/her to change after
you're married.

The classic mistake. Never marry potential. The golden rule is, if you can't be happy with the person the way he or she is now, don't get married. As a colleague of mine so wisely put it, "You actually can expect people to change after their married... for the worst!" So when it comes to the other person's spirituality, character, personal hygiene, communication skills,
and personal habits, make sure you can live with these as they are now.

#2. You pick the wrong person because you focus more on chemistry than on
character.

Chemistry ignites the fire, but good character keeps it burning. Beware of the "I'm in love" syndrome. "I'm in love" often means, "I'm in lust". Attraction is there, but have you carefully checked out this person's character?

Here are four character traits to definitely check for:

Humility: Does this person believe that "doing the right thing" is more
important than personal comfort? Do I want to be more like this person?
Would I like my child to turn out like him or her?
Kindness: Does this person enjoy giving pleasure to other people? How does
she treat people she doesn't have to be nice to? Does she do volunteer
work? Give charity?
Responsibility: Can I depend on this person to do what she says? she's
going to do?
Happiness: Does this person like himself? Does she enjoy life? Is she
emotionally stable?


Ask yourself: Do I want to be more like this person? Do I want to have a child with this person? Would I like my child to turn out like him or her?

#3. You pick the wrong person because the man doesn't understand what a
woman needs most.

Men and women have unique emotional needs, and more often than not, it is the man who just doesn't "get it." Jewish tradition places the onus on the man to understand the emotional needs of a woman and to satisfy them. The unique need of a woman is to be loved -- to feel that she is the most important person in her husband's life. The husband needs to give her consistent, quality attention. This is most apparent in Judaism's approach to sexual intimacy. The Torah obligates the husband to meet the sexual needs of his wife. Sexual intimacy is always on the woman's terms. Men are goal-oriented, especially when it comes this area. As a wise woman once pointed out, "Men have two speeds: on and off." Women are experience-oriented. When a man is able to switch gears and become more experience-oriented, he will discover what makes his wife very happy. When the man forgets about his own needs and focuses on giving his wife
pleasure, amazing things happen.

#4. You choose the wrong person because you do not share common life goals
and priorities.

There are three basic ways we connect with another person:

1. chemistry and compatibility
2. share common interests
3. share common life goal

Make sure you share the deeper level of connection that sharing life goals provide. After marriage, the two of you will either grow together or grow apart. To avoid growing apart, you must figure out what you're "living for," while you're single -- and then find someone who has come to the same conclusion as you.

This is the true definition of a "soul mate." A soul mate is a goal mate -- two people who ultimately share the same understanding of life's purpose and therefore share the same priorities, values and goals.

#5. You choose the wrong person because you get involved sexually too
quickly.

Sexual involvement before the commitment of marriage can be a big problem because it often precludes a fully honest exploration of important issues. Sexual involvement tends to cloud one's mind. And a clouded mind is not inclined to make good decisions.

Of all the studies done on divorce, sexual incompatibility is never cited as a main factor. It is not necessary to take a "test drive" in order to find out if a couple is sexually compatible. If you do your homework and make sure you are intellectually and emotionally compatible, you don't have
to worry about sexual compatibility. Of all the studies done on divorce, sexual incompatibility is never cited as a main reason why people divorce.

#6. You pick the wrong person because you do not have a deeper emotional
connection with this person.

To evaluate whether you have a deeper emotional connection or not, ask: "Do I respect and admire this person?" This does not mean, "Am I impressed by this person?" We are impressed by a Mercedes. We do not respect someone because they own Mercedes. You should be impressed by qualities of creativity, loyalty, determination, etc. Also ask: "Do I trust this person?" This also means, "Is he/she emotionally stable?" Do I feel I can rely on him/her?

#7. You pick the wrong person because you choose someone with whom you
don't feel emotionally safe.

Ask yourself the following questions:
Do I feel calm, peaceful and relaxed with this person? Can I fully be myself and express myself with this person?

Does this person make me feel good about myself? Do you have a really close friend who does make you feel this way? Make sure the person you marry makes you feel the same way!

Are you afraid of this person in any way? You should not feel you need to monitor what you say because you are afraid of how the other person will view it. If you're afraid to express your feelings and opinions openly, there's a problem with the relationship.

Be on the look out for someone who is always trying to change you. Another aspect of feeling safe is that you don't feel the other person is trying to control you. Controlling behaviors are a sign of an abusive person.

Be on the look out for someone who is always trying to change you. There's a big difference between controlling" and "making suggestions."

A suggestion is made for your benefit; a control statement is made for their benefit.

#8. You pick the wrong person because you don't put everything on the
table.

Anything that bothers you about the relationship must be brought up for discussion. Bringing up the uncomfortable stuff is the only way to evaluate how well the two of you communicate, negotiate, and work together. Over the course of a lifetime, difficulties will inevitably arise. You need to know now, before making a commitment:

Can you resolve your differences and find compromises that work for both of you? Never be afraid to let the person know what bothers you. This is also a way For you to test how vulnerable you can be with this person. If you can't be vulnerable, then you can't be intimate. The two go hand in hand.

#9. You pick the wrong person because you use the relationship to escape
from personal problems and unhappiness.

If you are unhappy and single, you'll probably be unhappy and married, too.

Marriage does not fix personal, psychological and emotional problems. If anything, marriage will exacerbate them. If you are not happy with yourself and your life, take responsibility to fix it now while you are single. You'll feel better, and your future spouse will thank you.

#10. You pick the wrong person because he/she is involved in triangle.

To be "triangulated" means a person is emotionally dependent on someone or something else while trying to develop another relationship. A person who hasn't separated from his or her parents is the classic example of triangulation. People can also be triangulated with things as well, such as work, drugs, Internet, hobbies, sports or money.

Be careful that you and your partner are free of triangles. The person caught in the triangle cannot be fully emotionally available to you. You will not be their number one priority. And that's no basis for a marriage.

You can now turn your Ipod Touch to a phone



How? Here's an easy way to turn your Ipod Touch into a phone. As long as you have wi-fi access at your home or anywhere around the world, there should be no problem in setting this up.

First of all, you will have to download Truphone and install in into your Ipod Touch. This application allows users to make and receive phonecalls via internet protocols, or famously known as VoIP, with Google's talk messaging service, Truphone customers and as well as Ipod Touch owners itself.

BACK ON THE TEAM:

MARQUEZ, AC - SG/SF

UST is once again a rookie – laden team. Will they make it without big men Mark Canlas, Francis Allera, Mel Gile, Chester Taylor and Jervy Cruz?
Who will take Japs Cuan's place?

With Coach Alfredo “Pido” Jarencio’s 3P’s and the NEVER SAY DIE attitude I’m sure they’ll survive. We believe that this team, even without a legit center and with a small line-up, they’d make it to the Final Four!

Go Tigers! Go USTe!

75 THINGS YOU WISH YOU COULD SAY TO YOUR BOSS:

Ok so this came from my former officemates in SGV. Hahaha. I understand why they hate their bosses. :))

I won't say this to my boss Jay cause I..him.

Maybe I'll just say this to the jerk who broke my friend's heart, feeling BIG BOSS kasi.(in highlights).

54. If I do what you tell me to, will this change the world?
55. I'm not sure if it's your good looks, your family connection or your charming disposition kaya ka andyan sa puwesto mo. But I'm definitely sure it has nothing to do with your intellect.
56. Okay lang umabsent kayo. It does not really matter. Mas maaga pa kaming makakapag-lunch.
57. Ang OA niyo naman. Kino-complicate niyo pa ang mga simpleng problema para lang magmukha kayong may alam.
58. You're just insecure. Palibhasa, deep down you know you don't deserve to be the boss of someone whose brilliance you can only dream
of!
59. Sir naman, hindi naman po lahat ng tao kasing bobo niyo.
60. Karapatan ko nang umuwi pagpatak ng 5pm, 8 hours lang ang binabayaran sa akin eh! Karapatan ko ring mag-absent! At karapatan kong ring masulit ang 1 hour lunch break ko!

70. Inaantok ako. Tulog po muna ko ha?
71. Bakit ganyan po kayo magsalita? Napo-possess ba kayo ng masamang ispirito?

73. Huwag nga kayong makialam samin!
74. Kelan kaya kayo mapapalitan bilang boss namin?
