In a report by ABS-CBN news, Guadalupe, instead of getting angry at receiving a wrong billing, opted to just joke about it.
Writing in local Bicolano dialect, she said that at present, she only has P600K with her and needed someone to lend her the remaining P100K so she can immediately pay CASURECO2 to avoid disconnection.

“P600k lang ang meron ako. Sino pwede magpautang ng P100k para mabayaran ko na itong sa CASURECO2 ngayong buwan?” Guadalupe wrote.
She also said that she plans to pay the entire amount the following day for fear of having her service disconnected.
“Magbabayad na ako bukas kasi baka putulan ako,” she added.
Many netizens were able to relate to her post, particularly that many utility companies have raised their rates.
According to Guadalupe, however, her usual monthly bill amounts to anywhere between 6K and 7K, so she was surprised to see her electricity bill for the month reaching P700K.
“Pinapahabol ko pa sana sa asawa ko yung meter reader kaso hindi na niya raw nakita,” she said.
Radyo Bandera Roxas City reported that Guadalupe has since filed a complaint at CASURECO2 about her erroneous electricity bill.
In a report by ABN 89.5FM RADIO Pilipinas, the utility company has since apologized to Guadalupe and attributed the flawed bill to human error.
They also gave her the correct billing for Guadalupe that she had to pay for the month which is only at P5,200.

Another viral story is about that of a student who exemplified the meaning of multitasking when she handled a fast food drive-thru task while attending her online class, as shown in a video posted by the Philippine Star. Her manager, who saw she was using her mobile phone while working was about to reprimand her when he saw she was actually attending her class while taking orders from customers.
