Busy with hampers
These two bank officers approached me to wrap a RM50 hamper for them. Actually I don't do RM50 hamper for the CNY. I started with RM68, then RM88, RM113, RM123, RM128 and lastly RM168. So for the sake of satisfying my customers' need, I did one for them.

They were happy and told me that they would come back for more. True enough, they came back on the 29 Jan and gave me a huge order of 40 hampers! They gave me a week's time to complete my task. I was pleased but at the same time I was burdened as I was also needed to wrap more hampers for display.
Nevertheless, I completed my mission in 4 days. I had to make sure that I could complete on time. Another headache was I had storage problem. I had to put them all over the place. Furthermore, we need space for our canned drinks.
Anyway, I was glad that they came to collect on time. They could only manage 2 rounds. I had to ask my staff to send the rest over to them. They were so pleased and to further pleased them, I gave a box of mandarin to each of them. Well, they thought I earned a lot from those hampers. I actually didn't charge them a lot on service. I just wanted to show my appreciation for their support.
Thank you for your full support! Appreciated that..
You are keeping busy!
