Re: I'm offering my services
Not particularly the kind of first FR I'd like to write (especially for someone who was praised so highly), but here it goes:
Sent e-mail to Swee on Fri last week for appt. on Tue. There were doubts in me since my profile is 0 post. I doubt she would believe me and respond.
To my surprise, she did, and says Tue is OK. So the clock is set on Tue 11 AM @ Sel H81.
On the D-day, around 9 AM got SMS says dat she got meeting ard 10, so have to postpone it to another day.... Since I am on leave for my virgin FL encounter, I asked if she is OK with diff time slot.
She said about 14:30, but the venue must be chged to C H81 since it's closer to her office.
I was a bit shocked that she is working and had to sneak out for this. I queried if it wouldn't disrupt her work, since the market is bad, It would be hell if she got fired because of this. SMS her again if she can really make it.
She said 14:00 - 14:30 is OK.
I left home with proper office attire altho i am on leave. It wouldn't be comfortable for me to roam ard the city, so I decided to go to location, book the room n rest.
Reached C H81 around 11 AM. SMS-ed her the room no. explain that I am there early, since i am lazy to go back home.
She was still cfm abt the time and ask if I brought rubber, which I said I did.
That was the last SMS I got frm her. Clock ticking away until 15:00.... no SMS, no nothing.
It is part of my fault that due to Kiasi-ness, I erased each SMS after I replied hence there goes her no. additionally my phone batt is flat. Maybe due to chg SIM too frequently.
I got appt with a frd after office hr. So I waited till 15:30 and left the H81.
All FR attributes: N.A.
I can think of 1001 excuses why she fly me aeroplane, from last minute task frm boss & HP spoilt to kidnapped by aliens..... (Gosh, I have to stop watching StarWars and those kinds of movies), but I am more interested in what really happened and why...
Up to the time of this post, there's no SMS on my 2ndary SIM and e-mail.
Phew.... It is tough to keep cool, and to censor all profanities from my nery 1st post.
