Only in Korea...

The other night I was up late and decided to call the US Korean Airlines reservation desk to add my frequent flier number to my reservation. I usually can do this online easily, but for some reason Koreanair.com couldn't locate my reservation.

I waited on hold for quite sometime when finally a lady helped me! I gave her my reservation number and was surprised when was like, "Oh, yes, 1 ticket to Seattle for Mr. Ramon. I kindly said, "huh?" She then repeated it back to me. At first I thought I heard wrong, but she definitely said my first name as my last name and vice versus. The travel agent who booked my ticket wrote my name backward. I have to wonder how a travel agent who was in possession of a scan of my passport could have done such a thing! Thank god I was able to catch this on my own. I can't imagine the craziness that would have happened at Incheon Airport as I went to check-in for my flight. The last thing I want is to be denied boarding on my flight OUT of KOREA! Either way, things should have been fixed today.

In other news, I have been going crazy for chocolate milk the past few days. I don't know what my deal is, but the thought of cold chocolate milk is just super satisfying to me. The weird thing is though that I don't even like milk! I guess if you stir in my chocolate deliciousness it makes it a little better.

It's only Tuesday night, but I'm already looking forward to the weekend. As of now I don't have any plans, but the thought of sleeping in and doing nothing always sounds GREAT. Maybe this weekend I'll have time and energy to read the stack of magazines that I picked up at the book store last night. ha!

One of these days I'm going to get my mo jo back and blog about something totally interesting and witty, however, until then it's just me and my chocolate milk.


PS. I have to pay Korean taxes this year, what kind of BS is that!?

How irresponsible that Korean Airline is, If that happened to me, I wouldn't know how I could get there but I'll definitely go to that office and make them correct their mistake.

Such mistakes harm overall organization, I am surprised how you tolerated it? If I was there I would have take them in court
