She's Just on the Move

It is said that showbiz is 20% performing and 80% waiting - which is true in a sense. But still, it is not asking much if people will learn to respect each other's time. For lost time is lost productivity, lost income.

A Public Relations lady (PR) of a publishing firm went to a Sunday noontime show for a video shoot of a popular teenage drama actress (DA) who was part of the publishing's Style Awards event. Time of shoot was decided on by DA and her handler (H), and PR complied.

At the agreed time and place, DA gave instructions to H to move the shoot after the noontime show. H then relayed the message to PR. Although disgusted, PR conceded and waited with her group. When the show finally ended, PR was so relieved, but not for long 'though. On the orders of DA, PR was informed by H that DA forgot about her rehearsal for a weekend variety show of a popular star. And it had to be the priority at that point vis a vis the video shoot. PR and her group were obviously annoyed upon hearing this. The long wait they had earlier had already consumed them all - literally and figuratively, and the thought that they would be again subjected to another round of time killing was just too much. For after all, it was DA who made them come for the early morning shoot, but they were too helpless to even complain. Finally, the much-delayed shoot took off at past seven in the evening.

It takes great sacrifice to keep one's work. But given the kind of people you are made to deal with everyday, it takes greater sacrifice and commitment to love it.

Do you know who DA is? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.
