Toxic Wastes

I stay near by Salmiya Clinic(private one). So as i was taking Dexter(my dog) for a walk. i  tend to see/find all sorts of things. Dexter (like all dogs) kept sniffing at everything he sees. So when he was particularly curious about something and took a bit longer than normal. i had to inspect it . To my Astonishment i found a used syring, that too with the needle still intact. It was crumpled due to the cars which park around. then since i looked around, i found so many of them all dumped and scattered around, that too at a common place, where loads of people walk.

MOH, must seriously look into such issues, where it could create serious health hazards. Also look into medical Wastes dumping from hospitals before renewing their licenses…. I really dont know what to say !!!

Meeting with Aramex

Salary Day … Blues!!!!

Most people are extremely happy on salary days, coz they get to plan out things, the feeling of having money etc etc…. But ever since i left my old job… salary day is a major pain for me..  Since i dont have a salary account with my new company as yet. i get paid in cheques. Now i have 2 options , either i deposit it into my old account and wait another 3-4 days for it to come, or directly go to KFH, and show my civil id and get it encashed.

Problem is in KFH , the people are wonderful, well mannered etc. But they have like 3 tellers serving 300 people :-(. you usually have to spend like a whole morning of 2 to 3 hours to reach your turn. I have been doing that for last 4 months and its a pain. Whats worse is that my Monthly expenses which are refunded are paid in another cheque , on another day … and im like WTF , i have to go the bank again …:-(
