Today we are in a wedding that only my wife's friends are the only people I know.
Of course I did not let her attend this without me! Ano ko tanga?
Tsss..
May girlfriend na pinagnanasaan pa ang asawa ko. 🙄
Kanina sa simbahan, nilapitan niya si Jema. Inaya niyang magpapicture kasama ng buong barkada nila.
Yun na yung last na nakita kong magkausap sila. Iniiwasan na niya si Jema ever since.
Pero ganun pa rin, laging may lumalapit sa kanya.
And now I am sitting here alone in our table for quite a while.
Buti na lang may mga nakausap ako. Yung computer school kasi na nagrerent sa upper floors ng building ni Jema ay aalis na.
Yung dalawang prospective tenants ay nilapitan si Jema kanina pagdating pa lang namin dito sa reception.
The first one is a teacher that works for a famous tutoring school. They want to rent the second and third floor.
I need to see my wife's building first.
Baka kasi mahirap siya iseparate since ilang years nang isang establishment lang ang nag-occupy dun sa four floors.
At pag ganun kasi na for the kids yung establishment ay mas marami ang safety standards bago yun makapasa sa mga clearances. It has to be safe for the kids. Mahirap nang magkaroon ng accident doon. Napakaraming babayarang damages pag may nangyaring hindi maganda.
The second one is a gym instructor. He wants to acquire the second and third floor pero baka lang kasi hindi fit yung building for a lot of gym equipments.
In my mini gym room kasi sa Cebu, we have to add some layers on its floor. The bottom layers are to control the vibration and the top is where they drill the equipments.
It is kind of pricey considering na ilang square meter lang yung pinagawa ko. I don't think kakayanin ng starting pa lang na gym business ang standards, sa flooring pa lang.
Pag sa tiles lang nila yun ikinabit ay magsasuffer naman ang stability ng buong building at kawawa ang nasa lower floor, fast food chain pa naman ang nandun, baka umalis yun pag nagstart na magkaroon ng falling debris.
Little by little ay mabibitak ang flooring nun at puwedeng maging fatal ang damage pag lumindol. Baka magulat na lang sila pag bigla yung gumuho.
It is the first solo business venture ng taong kausap ko. He said that he was an employee ng isang sikat na fitness gym sa Manila.
So mangangapa rin siya kasi unang sabak niya sa pagnenegosyo.
I stated quite obviously to the second applicant that he has a low chance on getting the space.
I am planning to visit the building tomorrow para mas concrete yung mga assumptions ko.
Sa ilang beses ko kasing nabisita yun, hindi ako complacent sa structure niya. Medyo substandard siya. Ayoko lang magtanong kay Jema about it kasi feeling ko hindi ako dapat makialam sa bagay na yun.
I will later call the construction company who built the Iza Mall in Makati para matulungan akong i-assess ang building.
Sa Iza Mall kasi, we really invest so much sa structure. As tough as possible talaga kasi you'll never know.
It looks like I have to do something para sa building ni Jema.
Kailangang maging good as new yun for the next business na magrerent and if possible ay sana fit yung uupa sa structure ng building.
