Being Ah Girl's Receptionist

Being the receptionist for ah girl has it's "plus" side. First, you get to screen her calls. Those who use her English names are usually work-related, and the moment they put down the phone, her mobile phone will start buzzing on her table, which, can be very irritating. I mean, how can mobile phones be call mobile phones if they are not mobile. But, that's beside the point. Back to receptionist story. As for those who use her Chinese name, "clear throat", are usually family members.

It so happens that Ah Girl wasn't around to answer her mum's phone call. So after telling her Ah Girl just walked away, her not-so-mobile mobile phone rang.

Ah Girl called home...

Ah Girl: Ma, you called just now?
Ma:......

Ah Girl: Of course I know lah
Ma:.....

Ah Girl: Phuket, I never go before.
Ma:....

Ah Girl: Hah?? I want to go, but when?
Ma:...

Ah Girl: You tell me the dates lah, then I can take leave
Ma:....

Ah Girl: okay...bye

Guess what? She is doing a "so-call" BIG show, and she is PLANNING for a trip. Her poor co-pilot. Should I tell the co-pilot?
