Sometimes its so frustrating to attend an appointment only to be told its either cancelled, postponed or even something worse.
It happened to me today, when I was in TPM's Enterprise 4 Building. Our appointment was made days earlier and today was the day. So, by the time I arrived, I was told by the customer that the floorplan is not ready as the designer was out with a client and won't be able to send/fax her the latest floorplan until 3PM. Going out for lunch was of no fun either since I got lost in that stupid building everytime I came in/out and Will was not available as well.
Not wasting any time, I asked her what is there for me to do to bide the time. (Since I had 4 hours to kill). Short to say, by the time I have finished the task, the floorplan was still nowhere in sight. Now, the ID (Interior Designer) said it would be ready by 5PM, which is a bit too late. So, after waiting for almost 5 hours, my job was left hanging.
So, the customer requested that I return on Saturday, which is much better since their staff are not working and no one would disturb me which I agreed. And on the way out, I bumped into an Ex-Colleague.
We had a small drink nearby and after some discussions, I found out further that another of my ex-colleague which I hold high regards was not as whom he turned out to be. I was sad because while we were working together, I tried to help him. A lot.
Then again, its hard for me to be a good judge of characters as I always end up defending for the wrong person. Sigh. By the time we finished, the drink tasted so bitter.
