I was at lunch with colleags several days ago at this cafe in a clubhouse near office.
I had fried glass noodle and a glass of warm water. When we finished and went to pay, the boss told me that my total bill was MYR8.00. I distinctly remember that my fried glass noodle was only MYR6.00, and my water cannot be MYR2.00, so maybe the boss got the price of my glass noodle wrong.
So I asked him, "Boss, how much is the glass noodle?" "MYR6.00" was his reply.
Now I was really puzzled, and decided to probbed somemore, "Then how much is the glass of warm water?" "MYR2.00" was the answer.
What?? MYR2.00 for a glass of water? I had to ask him how much was a glass of iced tea. It was only MYR0.50! And a glass of herbal drink is also priced at MYR2.00! So how can my glass of plain water be MYR2.00?????
Felt so cheated, so I told the boss, "Boss, your glass of water very expensive ah?" And he had the cheek to reply "Yeah, a bit expensive...." There is no way I am going to order plain water ever from that cafe again. Actually, if I can, I would try to avoid going to that cafe, since the pricing is so inconsistent and totally off....
Still can't get over the fact that his glass of plain water costs MYR2.00... Issshhhhhh!!!
