Favorite Person in the Restroom

Weird?... yeah, I know but  believe me or not,  I really have one favorite person in the restroom.  She is Aling Milan of Petron SLEX (south bound).  I shared before that McDonald's and Starbucks are the places where I normally grab my breakfast whenever I have schedules in the South.  Apart from these resto and cafe, the restroom is the other reason why I always prefer to stop by in Petron.

The restroom in Petron SLEX is super clean, everything is automated: from the flush, faucets, soap dispensers, and the hand dryers... plus there is Aling Milan, always cheerfully greeting the people coming in, assisting with the Tissue, instantly cleaning each cubicle after every use, and filling the restroom with her timeless songs.

Aling Milan is already 14 years with this job and I guess she is happy with it.   She never fails to give assistance and still gives a warm smile no matter what kind of people uses the place, some are really unhygienic but she's still happy cleaning and making the whole place clean.    Her singing voice got my attention last year, I thought it's just a random happy moment for her but everytime I stop by the restroom she's as cheerful as always.  I normally stay for one or two songs and when I get out of the place, her happiness radiates me and her songs are my LSS (Last Song Syndrome).  

This morning, I reached Petron so early, grabbed my breakfast and stayed in the restroom to brush my teeth and do some girl stuffs.  As expected, Aling Milan was there to assist me and she was in the middle of the "Top of the World" song, continued to "One day in the Night(?)", and few more songs, stopping in between greetings for the other guests... until I finished my hair and powder.   I couldn't resist asking for her name and thanked her before leaving the place again.


Aling Milan - a reminder to always find happiness in everything we do.  

Have a happy Tuesday everyone!
