Today when I reached office i got the shock of my life. Drops of water are dropping from the air con on the "X" location. There was a rubbish bin placed directly under the "x" / air con to accumulate the water drops.
Someone in the company once told me a gruesome story behind the water dripping aircon. It sounds like this.
Back in the 40's, this place was a lake. A lake where all the people would do most of their daily activity like washing clothes, cleaning up their body etc etc. There was this lady in her early 20's named "Jassy" who would wash her families clothes beside the lake every evening. One day, she had lots of clothes to wash and she only finishes around 8 pm. When she reached home to have her dinner, her family had finished all the food and there was nothing left for her. Jassy who was tired n hungry didnt say a word as she doesnt want to have an arguement with her family.
During the night, she tried to sleep but couldnt because shes dam hungry. The night was also very windy and sounds of thunder can be heard every 15 minutes apart. "woo woo woo" sound can be heard when the wind blows inside Jassy's room. Jassy was shivering from hunger n cold. Then, out of a sudden, there was an aroma of McDonald's new spicy beef foldover coming from outside the house. The aroma was so tempting that Jassy couldnt resist and she wake up from her bed and go outside to follow the aroma.
The aroma brought her towards the lake and she stood there for about 5 mins confused as she could not see any spicy beef foldover anywhere. She then decided to drink the lake's water and to her surprise, it didnt taste like McDonald's spicy beef foldover but instead, it taste like McDonald's "Ayam goreng McD". Jassy was so hungry that she drank up every drop of water on the lake.
The next morning, her family found her lying in the middle of the dry lake dead with her belly bloated. The irony was, that day is the chinese July 14th. They said that it was the McDonald ghost who killed her. Soon after, everyone started moving out from the place fearing that they will be next. Decades after, they started to build Megan Avenue II on the same place and the story was forgotten.
Till today, every year on july the 14th on the chinese calender, the air con on the 13th floor will drip out drops of water bit by bit. We would normally use the rubbish bin to accumulate the drops of water. They said that if u dun accumulate the water, the water will be wasted and this will angers "Jassy the ghost". Till now, no one dare not to put the rubbish bin under the air con every year on 14th of july fearing the worst.
But if people were to collect the drops of water, they must not let the rubbish bin be filled full of water till it overflows. Why? Because if the rubbish bin were to be full of water, Jassy will appear from the water and eat every single person till she is full but we know Jassy will never be full.
Do you dare to disobey the 80 years tradition of Lady in the water aka Lady in the rubbish bin ?
ps: remember to check the level of water on the rubbish bin every now and then especially those who work on the night shift. Good luck.
