The Comex Experience

Parking was atrocious! Had to spend 40 minutes to get into a lot! Not to mention the ¼ tank petrol whilst turning in circles. Expensive petrol nowadays? Just look at the number of carparks displaying the fearful red “FULL”. Hadn’t really planned on going to the Comex but I was in the vicinity so what the heck? The last time I went to one was like 3 years ago. (2 while being overseas) Free admission was a draw but too good a one I’d say. The exhibition hall was packed like sardines. Not that I ever liked the little quitters. I hate crowds! That’s one thing you have to know. Cos you’ll hardly be able to convince me into one. Improving economy? The number of printers I saw being carried out speaks for itself. Many booths, many products but way too many people. Where are the “anti breast-feeding” (u gotta be a Singaporean to know this) guards when u need them essentially. Don’t they have a quota on the amount of traffic into these halls? What about being socially responsible and eco-friendly? Don’t these big IT companies ever train their sales staff not to give out leaflets unless requested? Number one, it’s so irritating being stuffed with papers everywhere u walk around. I’m there to look at the products not to be accosted with pamphlets in the face! Number two, these unsolicited papers end up all over the damn floor and finally into the trash. So how many trees do u guys wanna kill? Am I too critical? Well, “If u don’t know me by now……” (simply red paid for this advert) By the freaking way, what was Cold Storage doing inside an IT fair??!! The most disappointing factor was the missing “Show-gals”! Where were the tightly dressed, skimpy clothed to lust after? Where are they when u need to soothe your cantankerous mood after facing so many adversaries? Do they only come on the weekends? If you are the type who doesn’t mind paying more for petrol and being squeezed around in sweat to save that $10-20, then it’s the fair for you! In summation, change a bigger hall (u guys have the money!), save the tress and most portentously, bring in the “Show-gals”!
