I bought a top up card to top my Vodafone line and noticed the English instructions are different than the Arabic, actually the Arabic instructions are wrong !!
How could a company like Vodafone have not noticed this ?

Dislocated shoulder

December 1, 2009 by · 10 Comments
 

When i first fell the ambulance took me to Al Amiri hospital, i was examined,  x-rayed, and a doctor explained my injuries and said we might need to give you full anesthesia to fix your dislocated shoulder, then he comes back and says its better we send to the pros’ at Al Razi and they fix it for you there.

30min later am on an ambulance heading to Al Razi, once there i was examined by “senior” kuwaiti doctor the x-rayed again, the doctor decided that my shoulder is ok and its not dislocated !!!! but i know how a dislocated shoulder feel so i asked my brother to find another doctor to take a look at my shoulder, so he goes and comes back with a junior doctor -young Kuwaiti- the guy takes a look at my shoulder and the x-rays then says: i think its dislocated, but let us take some more x-rays from diffrent angles…so we did and he confirmed the dislocation then goes and asks the other senior doctor to come and reexamine the shoulder again…which he did, and again confirms its not dislocated and walks away !!!!

So we ask the junior doctor what he thinks, and he says i think its dislocated but the boss said its not, and am like a solider here if the commander in chef says something i have to obay!!

So in order not to embarrass him anymore we asked him if could just lead us to another doctor and we will ask for a second opinion, then he asks us to just wait for a while….he walks away and comes back with another doctor and a male nurse…they close the curtains and and agree on who will pull what and who will hold what…then start pulling and tilting… 10 sec my shoulder is back in place..and what pain reliever that was.

Later my brother comes in smiling and says that he just had a chat with the doctor and apparently he is also a biker and just bought his Ducati 1198 a couple of weeks back.

Thanks Dr.Bashar.

zain

Two weeks ago -June 27 to be exact-, i changed my Zain line form postpaid to prepaid, i was told its gona take 10 minutes for the line to work but of-course it did not, called 107 to check and was told to just give it another 30 min…one hour later and the line is still not working called them again and this time a smart guy answer and he knew what the problem was… he opens a ticket and tells me it will take up 48 hours to work !!!

Called them yesterday -after 13 days- and they go we tried to speak to you but we couldn’t..i go: don’t call me just activate the line why do you want speak me about?

They said ok fine it will work in the next 24 hours…called them again today and reminded them of what they told me yesterday and they said we are working on it and it will get solved in less that 24 hours Inshalah!!!

شدعوه يا زين…كلها كبسه زر، ما يبيلها اسبوعين

I was driving my mom’s Dodge Caliber today when I noticed the that the note printed on the mirror is translated wrong..!!!

In English it usually reads

“Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear”

But the Arabic translation printed on the mirror reflects the opposite, it seams Dodge used Google web translation service.
