What is it with most celebrities that in spite of their huge earnings, there is always that craving to want and get excited about getting gifts, freebies, or just about anything that is free?
Television Personality TP and her "partner" went out to dine in a posh restaurant specializing in pricey steaks. TP sought out the Restaurant Manager RM and told her that she would tweet about her dining experience in the place and put a photo of the food and steak in her social media account(s). RM was surprised with the gesture and thanked her. Right at the moment, TP took the opportunity to request for a discount for the effort. In other words: TP wanted an ex-deal for tweeting! MR although caught off-guard, was kind enough to grant her a big discount.
The next time around, TP went to the restaurant again. And once again, she had a chat with RM and told her that the previous tweets she did about the restaurant had resulted in so many responses (retweets, favorites), and explained to RM with pride that this kind of interaction will mean more sales and business for the restaurant. RM was more generous this time and gave TP free dinner! Of course, TP was more than delighted.
The third time, TP went there again, requested to talk to the manager once more, perhaps hoping for a special treatment. But alas, TP was told that RM was not at the restaurant at that time. For the first time, MP had her dinner – paid without discount. But unknown to her, RM was just around the restaurant all the while. She just decided to hide from TP as her request for discount is getting to be a habit – a big, bad habit for business.

ReplyDeletekapal naman ng mukha ni TP...da who ba sya?
ReplyDeleteisang famous news personality lang naman.
Delete"her partner"...meaning closet lesbiana? probably yung newscaster with a last name similar to a fat S.
ReplyDeleteParang sya nga.. Nasa title ang clue.. Cap pull!!
Deleteteh, gurl na gurl siya. partner kase pareho pa silang legally married sa kani-kanilang asawa kahit na physically separated. mag-review ka nga
Deleteayaw na mag-abono ni manager hahaha wag kasi abusado.
ReplyDeletenamimihasa naman yang taong yan! para namang timawa na gustong kumain ng libre!
ReplyDeleteHang kafal ng feslak ni TP. Da who to?
ReplyDeletedi yan yung host na S ang surname. na title din ng show niya tuwing sunday. in all in fairness, patas talaga yan. di yan katulad ng ibang host from other network. mabait siya at ang dami niyang pera. tubig nga ayaw namin mabigyan lalo from politicians, para wala na lang issue. boss ko siya dati. : ]
ReplyDeleteNa K na reporter?
ReplyDeleteTelevision Personality - late evening news anchor, initials in the title Her "partner" is married like her, but they're separated from their spouses. He works in the highest place in the land. Saw her tweets of the restaurant and the food. Sarap talaga doon. :)
ReplyDeleteKakaloka siya!! hahaha
DeleteHe works in the highest place in the land - Mt Everest?
Deletehahaha na-StrESs at nag-react na sa twitter si TP
DeleteMy food tweets are of my own volition, not paid for or discounted
Itey ba yung nasa late evening show na bongga ang collar ng blouse? -iron butterfly
ReplyDeletePak!!
Deleteimposibleng si S 'yan...last Christmas ang regalo niya sa staff niya genuine leather na wallet/passport holder with matching dollar sa loob....saan ka pa?
ReplyDeleteMabait na boss si s chika ng classmate ko working sa network.
Delete-irin butterfly
Sinong S ba yan?! Share the name, please!
DeleteKa.apelyido.nya.ang.S na.taga.Iloilo..
ReplyDeletekarek ka jan!
Deleteeto yung girl na napunta sa land down south
ReplyDeleteSiya din naisip ko 'coz of the initials on the title. Kung siya man to o ibang tv personality, kahiya pa din. Basgsak sa resto etiquette.
Deletenagtitipid siguro si ate kasi may pinagaaral na junakis
ReplyDeleteSino to? Si stress ba?
ReplyDeleteFP parang ikaw naman si TP na sobra kuripot - ang tipid mo sa clue ha. pero ito ang wild guess ko...when I started following her on twitter, i noticed that she always tweet the photos of the food. one time, she posted first the food they had for lunch then her partner posted a pic of the table. so i concluded that they were together at M****'s GB*. I also spotted them together at Rockwell tent bazaar. oh nakaka stress ba ang haba ng comment ko sa BI? hahaha
ReplyDeleteMga tupperware kayo. Porke ba celebrity, di na pwedeng magtipid? If I know, kayo nga di celebrity, humihingi rin kayo ng discount. EWAN!
ReplyDeleteOk lang manghingi ng discount pero wag naman mamihasa...
DeleteHuy, nakakahiya kayang humingi ng discount. Baka ikaw lang yan kasi for sure hindi ako.
DeleteTOMOH!!!
DeleteOo, matutuwa kami sa discount pag binigay sa amin pero di kami kasingkapal nyang si TP na gusto laging libre. Okay? Echusera ka, di ka nag-iisip!
DeleteIba ang paghingi ng discount na walang abuso! Iba yun!!
DeleteIt's C and partner R! Yun na!
ReplyDeleteEto ba yung nag "bakasyon" sa South?
ReplyDeleteIt's the F anchor.
ReplyDeleteYung nagwawagayway tuwing gabi ba ito? Geez feeling ko mali ako
ReplyDeleteRow 10 ako! Hihihi
ReplyDeleteI'm super stressed. Yun na!
ReplyDeleteginutom na ko di ko pa din mahulaan...
ReplyDeleteI don't think CD should be castigated for this. First, she asked for a discount in which RM willingly obliged in agreement that she'll tweet about her experience in dining in the restaurant. On her second visit, it is RM who offered to have her dinner in gratis as a result of increased patronage. If she insisted that her dinner on her 3rd visit should be free and made a scene, then we can surmise that she's using her status to gain advantage over others but it seems that she paid for her dinner without giving out a rant. RM should have not given her free meal if he could not sustain to spoil her with it. He should have settled in giving her discount every time she dines in. She's an effective endorser for all its worth and a free meal is such a small favor to return.
ReplyDeletestress, isdachu?
Deleteconstruction drill?
ReplyDeleted ko gets,khit comment no idea p rin
ReplyDeleteOmg I love her show while I Was still living in America . Through tfc her show inspired me to invest on a condo property. I love all the interior designs showcased luckily I was able to get one of the designers featured on her show to do my unit.
ReplyDeleteI'm living the urban life...
Yung nakidnap dati kasi sinuway nya yung boss nya.. Tama po diba?
ReplyDeletebastos din si RM. bakit di niya hinarap si TP at sabihin ng maaayos na di na sya pede magbigay ng discount? that should have put TP in the right place!
ReplyDelete"that should have put TP in the right place!"
Deletebabastusin sya ni RM? that makes RM more of being polite.
oo nga. I'm sure si RM ang source ng BI. Paano pa ba malalaman ni FP ito kung hindi rin sa chismosang RM na ito. I would not patronize this place!
Deletetalaga? sa tingin mo kung ginawa yan ng RM di gaganti si C. Sisirain nya name ng resto at masisisante sa trabaho si poor RM. Isip isip!
Deletehahaha na-StrESs at nag-react na sa twitter si TP My food tweets are of my own volition, not paid for or discounted.
ReplyDeleteSi C ba un TP? Nag comment na sya. I doubt she is. Nakasabay namin sila mag dinner way back nag pay naman sya. At mayaman naman siya. Maybe iba. Kawawa naman din kung hindi sya. Maybe we should put our self to her shoes. Di ba?
ReplyDeleteHANDA NA BA KAYO???
ReplyDeleteBased sa title si C and R to. Hoy R daang matuwid ba yan?
ReplyDeleteI have someone in my mind while reading this haha. Pero i dunno kung siya nga ba. Sino kaya ito?? Namimihasa kase. haha
ReplyDeletehmm! shes interviewing the owner of the fastfood chain. hihingi din kaya siya ng discount. kalowkah!
ReplyDeletei love TP...
ReplyDeleteirregardless if at times she tend to overdress in her news programs---san ka nakakita ng news presenter sa prime time na naka thong slippers step ins... lol.
