Since last night, I think I must have sent out up to 50 SMSes.
No, it's not lovey messages to someone I can't get enough of (I'll dream on...)
It's regarding official business.
Remember the match I mentioned in yesterday's entry? The one I'm supposed to play on Xmas eve? Well, my team initially wanted to postpone it to the next week so as not to disrupt celebration plans (as well as to secure more time for me to recover) but the opponent team (after much SMS-ing because of the very delayed reply) wanted to retain the original date so we took it that we'd be playing on Xmas eve (explaining my really foul mood last night).
I mass-SMSed my teammates and informed them about the match and went to bed.
Woke up this morning at 7.30am and saw that I'd received one message. The team manager (of the other hall) said that his teammates have a change of mind and asked if we'd still like to change the match to the 27th (of course wan lah!). I replied, asking if it will be in the evening as earlier discussed, and thereafter proceeded to mass-SMS my teammates AGAIN, telling them that our match date's been changed but the time is yet to be confirmed.
11am: No reply from Mr. Manager. Sent him a message to ask him to confirm the date and time of the match.
12nn: Still no reply. Sent the message again.
1pm: As above. (For those who are wondering why don't I just call him, I've pretty much lost my voice already... so... yeah..)
3pm: Still no reply. Received a message from my Sports Secretary, chasing me for a confirmation because the match could very well be tomorrow if the other team didn't give me their confirmation. Bleagh!
3.15pm Texted a friend of mine (who's playing for the other hall) and asked her if she knows the outcome. She wasn't informed of a confirmed match date and told me that she has had problems contacting her manager before. She then gave me the number of another player who supposedly has a say in the decision making and I texted him, asking if the change is finalised.
3.30pm Not receiving ANY helpful messages. Mass-SMSed my teammates about the ambiguity of the match date and the likelihood of having to play tomorrow morning.
3.40pm Some of my teammates replied to acknowledge that they've taken note of the situation now. But still NOTHING from the other hall.
Everyone mentioned above are guys (except for my friend who texted me at 3.15pm).
So tell me, what is it with guys and indecisiveness? C'mon, I need some efficiency here!!!!
