But aiya, MLs ask for favors is not dissimilar to us ask for non listed services, both sides have the right to oblige/decline. I don't view negatively any party who ask for things, so long don't be pushy or sulky if don't get a favorable response. Most important is the party who got rejected be mindful that any favor/request is not an entitlement. Whenever I ask for anything from ML, my default mindset is they will say No. Anything more, is a bonus. The best reaction is they ponder, didn't outright reject.. that's where the fun begins  |
Agree. To be fair, if you know where she is located, it is rather inconvenient to get food, not that she is lazy to go down stairs and buy. The fact she asked for your help clearly shows that she is comfortable with you to make the request. I have also regularly brought meals for my regular MLs, past and present, if I happen to make appointments at meal times. Sometime i will even check with them if they need me to get food. So far they are quite appreciative and did not complain about the food i bought nor make any special requests, just plain cai png, $5/6 only, ok lah. Of course i do check with them what are their dislikes (eg. They don't seems to like our local curry). Anyway, if you don't like to spend extra, just tell them you no time to get or try to avoid meal times appointments altogether. I ever heard of bros ordering tingkat for MLs to deliver lunch and dinners or help to order grab food when they are not even visiting them (Paisay.. i benefited from some of the food they ordered) so buy food is not a big thing, not like asking you to buy LV for them.
