Rantings....

First of all, to those who are worried about my foul mood, please rest easy. I feel tons better now and I thank you all for the concern.

Okay, now that the niceties are over and done with, let's get down to business. Hmm...actually the business comprises more complaints and bitching. Hehe...it's not been a smooth week!! Sigh...when will this wave of bad luck be over?

I am not happy with CF. If anyone from CF is reading this, please take note. Your class scheduling sucks..big time! ( Sorry eh, I know I have a 'rule' about not resorting to profanity here but this case really need strong words. My current vocab is so poor that I cannot find the politically right word to express what I feel. Besides, the words here do not quite reach the definition of profanity, right?) Anyways, to get back to the issue in hand, CF - why do you guys have to come and 'kacau' our nice schedule in Sunway Pyramid? Actually, to narrow down the problem, it all involves my beloved step classes. Why else would I get mad at other class schedules for?? Now that awesome Annie is on maternity leave,our usual step class has gone to the beginners. Yikes!!! There are a ton of step for beginners classes, including a brand new one on Thurs morning - why invade ours??? Please la , CF - change the slot to an intermediate/advance class and let us continue to enjoy our miserable 45 mins, albeit without Annie. If you concentrate on recruiting new steppers only, all your regulars will go. Take my word for it. Anyway guys, I am not just complaining here - I have already written to CF and they have yet to reply...as usual. Hate them...:(

Another thing I hate is people with 2.. or sometimes more 'faces'. They are so nice to you and behind you are something else. I met this rather nice and friendly man ( friend of a friend) and he is THE big boss of a big company. So during this social encounter, he told me that Ian can do his internship at his company end of this month, and that the timing is good becouse the next few months will be busy until the year end lull in Dec and Jan. So all was good and fine, and he repeatedly said there is no problem. A few days later, he told my hubby that he has received Ian's resume and there should be no problem. So, based on his no problems, I arranged for Ian to come home.That was 2 weeks ago, and guess what??? Got problem!!! After 2 silent weeks, I called his office and didn't even get a chance to speak to him. His secetary said she will call back and when she did, she said that the boss has forwarded Ian's resume to his manager and the manager said the timing is not right!!!! what the......
Tell la..if he is not suitable or if you don't want him to intern there but the silent treatment is really rude. Hrummp....and getting the secretary to relay the message is doubly rude. However, I shall give him the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't really know about it. Let me investigate and update later... I am really upset, not to mention Ian as well as he was really looking forwards to it.

Much as I love the ice, that is another potential area for complaints...as usual. All the old complaints remain as the management refused to acknowledge them and think that if they close their eyes, it will go away. Sigh...we just 'tahan' them because there is no other place to go and they know it. Too bad...for us. I won't go into that again ( Fellow mama blogger J - you know what I mean, hehe) but Chrisha's students are another lot. Her batch of new students...I mean. The old group was super great and I have absolutely no problems handling their classes. The new batch is an entirely different kettle of fish. I don't know which part of ' Do not request for new slots' that they don't understand, and they repeatedly request for new slots when replying to every single email I sent them!!! Arghhh....no wonder I am losing hair !!! It has gone to the point that I ignore them. Call me rude but I don't care.

Chrisha 'blacklisted' another skater this time round. A new one, as you would have guessed. That makes a total of 2 !!! She is such a tolerant person and so good with the kids, so to have her blacklist you means the kid is super irritating!!! And I totally agree with her as the respective moms are equally irrirating and demanding! Good, that's another pest less I have to handle. Sometimes, I feel that since I have the 'power' to 'grant' slots, maybe I should 'abuse' it by only giving slots to easy to handle parents???? Whadya think??? I can think of 3 I wanna get rid of!!! haha...2 are the ones who always ask for new slots and one thinks that since her kid is in the group class just recently, she is a regular and should be given preferential treatment by giving her a private slot. And she wants the slots in the preferred 'quiet' times!!! Gosh, the kid can't even skate fast enough to cover the whole rink and she wants the rink to herself. Go buy private ice time la...only RM500 an hour mar... Jeesshh. Some people are so full of themselves!!Some of the senior skaters don't even get ice time at quiet times and they managed ! Oh oh, got one more, she wants to bring in her own personal coach from God knows where ( she says she got contacts!!)....well, if she does, then she don't need Chrisha, right? I really think I should redo the system and give special times to senior skaters ( senior both in levels and time with Chrisha) instead of first come first served basis.

Highlight of the week was the Open Houses ( The only good thing last week!)!!! yay for rendang and lemang and curry etc etc... Ate so much that I still feel bloated up to today. Serious!! Must diet this week. Haha...say only, don't know whether can do or not. Fingers xxx. Oh, have another one to look forward this weekend!!! Die la....:)
