education and service

on education

one of the best feelings in the world i feel whenever the professor starts handing out those 300 pages or more of course notes for free, or provide you with soft copies of the lecture materials when they could also be bought at a higher price at the student center. it gives you the affirmation that indeed you're here to be taught and to learn and not being exploited as a business opportunity.

on service

back on pedals and butt-aches in 30 minutes! if there's anything i can hardly complain about, it's excellent, no-nonsense service from private and government offices alike. aside from speedy service everyone seems to be so polite, professional and forthcoming i don't even think it's possible to say alstublieft with sarcasm and a scowl the way some people say palihog with an obvious hint of irritation. if privatization of certain government offices is what it takes to lift philippine government office services to this level, then i resolutely support you, rody.
