Tired of Waiting

This totally sums it up all. I was supposed to be in the Singapore Food Expo the whole day yesterday. But my editor last minute said she needed me to go back to the office to help her. And I will make my way there in the afternoon. And another colleague is also busy doing work, so she asked me to wait for her to finish so that we can go together. So from 9am morning, I waited, waited, waited and waited. Ate lunch, continue waiting, waiting, waiting and waiting.

After a LONG WAIT, It was already 6pm. I don't know how i survived these long hours, don't ask me. And by then, I already don't feel like going anymore, and I want to knock off at 6.30pm and go home.

Seriously, I want to go there to help to sell the magazines but if I were to go there at 7pm when the thing ends at 10pm, I think it is really pointless. And they said they need helpers to clear the pack the stuff since it is the last day.

But excuse me, there are 9 people in the stall, excluding me. And it is only a small lil' stall, I don't understand why do i have to make a trip down.

In the end, I told my colleague is it ok if i go home. And she said she is ending work soon and we are going expo soon, so don't like that la....(note: 6.05pm).

What to do, sit and wait till the sky drops lor. And by the time I reach Expo, it was already 730pm. I didn't sell a single magazine. All i did was to buy dinner using my pathetic $5 and ate. They decided to pack up early at 8.30pm so after dinner we pack up. WTF right?

And we waited till 10 plus for the delivery man to come.

Perhaps I made many people wait in my whole life and now that I got my retribution of waiting for others from 9am to 7pm - 10 HOURS! And I wasn't happy coz I brought money there to grab the last day sales but in the end, the money was given to somebody else when she didn't inform me that she wanted the money coz she doesn't want to withdraw anymore money. Left with $3.02 in my account, and a pathetic sum in my wallet, I didn't have enough to pay for the cab fare which I AM SUPPOSED TO cuz i can claim...So another person lend me money again for that. But the taxi uncle has no change for big notes, in the end, i used up whatever that is left in my wallet (remaining $12) and borrowed $5 from her to buy dinner.

In short, I BROUGHT $64, GAVE SOMEBODY $50, USED $3 FOR LUNCH, PAID $12 FOR TAXI, OWED PEOPLE MONEY AND LEFT WITH NO MONEY FOR DINNER AND SHOPPING

Sometimes I really hate it when I felt like I am being 'used'. As in, how they want me to share a cab together so that I can pay for the cab fare to claim company for the transport fee. My transport fees always total up to $200 plus dollars, which is enough to pay for my pop piano lessons.

It's alright, everything is ending soon.
