Sigh...just realise I am really wasting a lot of energy on things I cannot change. So the organiser is an idiot. Now that everyone knows abt that, I should breathe easier cos anything that goes wrong is not my fault because I have done my best to prevent it but I am only human and limited to what I can do. I just feel bad for my team cos they are the ones receiving my instructions and I cannot give them until the last minute (because of certain brainless people) and they have to rush things through at the last minute. Maybe that's why i'm so pissed off with that idiot. He does not think abt others at all, just about himself and what he wants. Just a list of what idoitic things he has done just so I'll feel better this Monday morning (after Les Bleus lost the World Cup)
- He told us to plan for teambuilding activities on saturday 15 July but 2 days ago he sent the latest agenda which he printed to all his delegates that teambuilding is on 13th July. It's not easy to shift the entire logistics to 2 days earlier for a group of at least 150 pax.
- He is checking in today but he sent the namelist 2 days ago. Group is at least 160 pax and we have to quick assign rooms in the space of a few hours.
- then he changed the rooming list so everyone has a different rooming partner so we have to find the original reservation, match it with the name and find who to replace and where.
- He wants 1 minute check-ins for his group but he did not give complete passport number so guest has to spend time filling it in. Too bad idiot.
- Then he provided the passport number in a separate excel sheet but not in chronological order with the rooming list so he must be insane to expect us to search the names one by one for 150 people to insert the passport number.
- He told me he needed extra 20 rooms to put in his excess guests but despite me chasing him for exact number for a week, he only gave me the numbers 2 days ago. I had to confirm the 20 rooms with another hotel and in the end it ended up a WAY smaller number so someone's gonna scream at me for booking so many rooms.
- He does not read page 2 of the menus so he keeps sending me 10 emails a day starting from 2 weeks ago saying not enough vegetarian food dishes when it's all in the second page. (tu es fou!)
- Now he wants me to rent 2 printers and a copy machine. I gave him the price (if you go through the hotel, you pay the service charge to the hotel for our services.) and he complain too high (stingy asshole) and has not confirmed with me yet and he is coming in today. Bon chance, monsieur.
- He told he has 180 pax coming so we set up the entire meeting room to put 180 pax. Not easy to shift chairs and tables for 180 pax and then now it's only 150 so I have to make the team re-arrange the meeting room AGAIN.
- THE FACT THAT HE CONFIRMS EVERYTHING SO BLOODY LATE THAT EVEN IF WE CAN DO IT, WE CAN'T DO IT WELL AND IT'S IRRITATING TO DAMAGE MY REPUTATION LIKE THAT.

Next piece of news. Was at Oceans department store yesterday when I met my old qik, Chai. The guy I was head over heels when i first came to Phuket. We saw each other and we chatted a bit and I realised one thing. I am over my crush on him. And I feel so sad over that. Nothing is the same, EVERYTHING CHANGES and I realise IT ONLY TAKES A MINUTE GIRL, to fall in love, to fall in love. so I PRAY that I'll NEVER FORGET that LOVE AIN'T HERE ANYMORE, BABE, and maybe I should come BACK FOR GOOD. **Sorry there,was in for a little Take That crap.
anyway, yeah...I think I stop expecting anything when I see him. It's over. It's a relief and it's sad at the same time. Now one more crush to get over. If i can get over this, i think I will be truly happy with my boyfriend.
