I absolutely detest clients who think that just because their rank is high, they can be unreasonable and make life difficult for those they work with.
I really pity the client I'm directly liaising with for a project..he puts in so much effort, gives really good suggestions and sees the BIG picture, but his stupid boss just totally undervalues him and doesn't appreciate his work.
It's almost scary how disillusioned with his work my client has become, after only a mere 7 months into his job. I still remember the very first time I met him at the start of the year, he was so eager and enthusiastic about his project. Now, he's just completely
cui and disinterested in putting in additional effort. Like what he told me, it's not recognised anyway.
I think I'm really lucky, in comparison. Although I work shitty hours and get low pay, at least my bosses treat me really well. And I'm valued as an employee.
I like this client of mine. But completely dislike his boss. I shall try to make his life as simple as possible and highlight everything he has done, which his boss just simply doesn't seem to see. And chooses not to acknowledge. What an ass right.
I guess you can't always have your cake
and eat it.
Anyhows, after that sucky meeting with the high-and-mighty boss, YH (my client) drove me to the photoshoot location. And it was surprisingly easy to talk to him! We were just chatting all the way there..jumping from topic to topic. Maybe it's cos' our age is really close. Haha. Thank god it wasn't one of those awkward car rides with tangible tension in the air.
Photoshoot was quite interesting..but I was really dressed in the wrong attire. And standing in heels for
4 hours kinda made me wanna collapse at the end of it. Haha. But I survived enough to do dinner with my boy and even
walk one mrt station away. With me carrying a
1kg bag and him lugging a
20kg bag. I swear he has no concept of weight. I kept telling him, you're growing shorter and shorter right before my very eyes. And he kept saying, no la it's not heavy. SIAO. Lol.
Had a too-full dinner and so I said I wanted to walk around. By that, I meant walk around the shopping mall. But that boy brought me on a
long walk to the
next mrt station. And very clever of him, he threw my own words back at me: "You said you wanted a walk!"
...................
I can't argue that point. I
did say that. HAHA. He'll really be the death of me someday.
But yet, I heart my baby so. =)
And this week promises to be short! Tomorrow's midweek already..and no working saturday this week! Shioks!
I shall think about my mountain of work when I go back to office tomorrow. And hopefully the bestie will be there! =)
