It’s Lenten season once again – a time to reflect, repent, fast, prepare and focus on our relationship with God. In a Catholic country like ours, the 40 day period of Lent represents a time for deep and prayerful reflection. Part of this remembrance is to practice abstinence, wherein adult Catholics are encouraged to refrain from eating any form of meat every Friday during Lent.
There are things that should be bought, used or eaten in pairs, just coz one is better off paired with another, in tandem, in couples or in a duo. At McDonald’s, the Chicken McDo is so lonely without its partner, the World Famous Fries, thus when you order, it’s a must to grab both 🙂

Behind every LBC transaction, there is an agent all too willing to assist, and a customer who pays back thru simple words of gratitude.
This is the continuing saga of Aming Ligaya, LBC’s monthly thrust of making commendable agents and their customers meet face to face so they can personally thank each other after a job well fulfilled.
Recently, Esper Tabamo, who has been working as an LBC Agent for almost three years, was able to meet in person Luzviminda Banas, a businesswoman who felt very thankful for the stellar service she was given. Banas, a regular patron of LBC, recalls calling the hotline to follow up on the status of her shipment of souvenir items. What made it stressful for her, then, was that she lost the receipt of her transaction and couldn’t provide the tracking number. It was only when Tabamo handled her concern that her worries were laid to rest.
