MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Journalists covering Bongbong Marcos are required to take antigen tests to ensure that the President is not exposed to the coronavirus. Wearing face masks is also a must.
Now, a new palace directive also requires cubicle journalists — those who cover Presidential events from the comfort of their air-conditioned offices — to wear face masks. The likes of Maria Ressa, Raissa Robles, among others. Vloggers like Bb. Maharlika are also covered by the directive.
Press Secretary Cheloy Garafil told The Adobo Chronicles that the new requirement will help reduce fake news, gossip and foul language coming out of the journalists’ and vloggers’ mouths.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Whenever you see or hear Jose Mari Chan sing his most popular carol, you know it’s Christmas season in the Philippines.
The country is known to have the longest Christmas season in the entire Christendom, officially beginning the first of September.
But lo and behold, Christmas 2023 begins even earlier. It has actually begun on Easter Sunday, locally known as Pasko (Christmas) Ng Pagkabuhay.
Yesterday, Filipino netizens reported the first sightings of Chan.
BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio Bureau) – An employee of a Starbucks Café at SM Baguio was fired just for being accurate with a customer.
As is customary, Starbucks baristas ask for a customer’s name to imprint on the recyclable cup for calling out when the order is ready to pick up.
The employee asked a customer for his name and the latter said “Brian with a y.” And that’s exactly what the employee wrote on the cup.
When the employee finally called out the customer’s name, he shouted, “Iced mocha for Brian with a y.”
The customer felt insulted and reported the employee to the manager who immediately fired the poor employee.
