Crappppp

 

Holy crap! I’ll be attending a seminar/workshop in one of the hospitals under the company I work for. And it’s all the way in Quezon Province. That’s a nine-hour trip from home. Huhuhu.

Here’s the twist: we’ll be staying in the hospital’s patient rooms. Don’t worry, no patients in that floor. Those rooms just aren’t being used at the moment, so they’re letting us crash there. Still, I can’t help but wish they’d just let us book a hotel, especially since we’re paying for this.

I checked delivery apps, but the nearest restaurants and fast-food chains are at least 30 minutes away. I even scouted the area on Google Maps and Street View, and OMG… no private vehicle for me, no cabs in sight either.

Since I’ll basically be an alien in the area, commuting alone just to explore doesn’t sound like the best idea. Wahhhh. WELP. Definitely not the kind of work travel I had in mind. I love my friends from the South, but I really am not a southie! Long car rides are not for me. Remote areas are not for me. This trip is going to test my patience and my survival skills.
