I was on the road, trying to locate an office block in Taman Tun. I am not very familiar with the place and the only confident landmark I know is the IBM building. I think that's probably THE landmark for a lot of people when you say Taman Tun Dr. Ismail.
So I got myself to IBM, pulled over and made a call to the office I was looking for to ask for directions from there on.
Me: Hello.
Him: Hello, ABC Company.
Me: I'm trying to locate your office but I'm not sure how to go. I'm now at IBM. Can you guide me please?
Him: Ohh...IBM ah. You have to come this side la.
Me: I know I have to come to your side, but where is your side?
Him: Where are you?
Me: IBM.
Him: I don't know which part of IBM you're at.
Me: Right in front of IBM, near the traffic lights.
Him: I don't know IBM.
Me: YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE IS IBM??
Him: Ya la. You have to come this side.
Me: I KNOW THAT!!! TELL ME HOW!!
Him: Mmmm....You see Pizza Hut?
Me: Yes, then?
Him: You see Celcom?
Me: Yes...
Him: You turn inside and go straight. Then you see 4-storey building.
Me: Is that 4-storey building your office?
Him: Yes
How can he not know the IBM building when he works just a road away??

hehe, maybe he comes to work early in the morning when it's still dark, eats lunch in the office and goes home when it's all dark outside! never ventures out to see the world and only knows where Pizza Hut is because that's where he takes his kids for dinner (also at night) at weekends! LOL!!

A typical malaysian male, can't use a road map, never heard of directions except "over there" or "you know that white building on the opposite side".
down under, haha...but to be fair, quite a number of guys do know their way around. i would say better than girls most times. :)
