Assassin 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2008 I also want to rant abit too Yesterday lunch time I went down to my house to check out my reno update so far and I managed to meet my neighbour a few units away from mine at same level and he was surprised that I came down to do spot check on my reno. He claimed he didnt, not even during the aircon trunking installation and leave it to his ID. So I ask him if his ID was there to oversee the trunking installation and he said dont know For my case maybe different because me and my wife is co-ordinating all the work but when you think about it, doing renovation is not cheap. The amount spent is like investing in a business. When you invest or start a business even if you are sleeping partner, would you just bochap and trust your money in others' hand just like that?

Actually when I did my reno, I didn't go down to check at all....except on weekends where we just popped by and see evreything ok, then we go off liao...i trust that my ID will coordinate everything for us.... for your case, since you are coordinating yourself, then i think it's only natural that you supervise the work regularly.....we did go down to oversee for major "event" like aircon installation....cos you won't them to anyhow do the trunking...

When you invest or start a business even if you are sleeping partner, would you just bochap and trust your money in others' hand just like that? i think your neighbour steady leh.. no need to spot check his 'investments' i think RT forumers quite gan cheong abt reno progress leh.. from the blog can see they often goes spot checking.. you are normal dont worry.. I think you feel disappointed especially those who you think they are supposed to be closer to you but didnt give you the reply you want to hear. I am sure they will want to attend but maybe circumstances does not allow them to give an immediate reply? Yaya.. you are right.. maybe they really have something on lor.. but then see their reply is like 'erm, ok' or 'i let you know again' Wah lau...si mi dai ji? y got blocked nose?

Assassin 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) Wah seh.. your post si beh pai kia leh.. got parang somemore.. no leh i go to their wedding happily one.. need any help i sure ok de.. that is what happen to my old sch friend lor.. suddenly give excuses that 'my parents and in laws dont allow me to go', i think they can even bring out excuses like father mother died cannot come lor.. why we must beg ppl come ah.. kns.. sometime i really got this thought 'ai lai mai sua lah'.. but cannot leh.. got minimum table to meet.. Like that difficult to solve liao if you have already confirmed your minimum table requirement. Only way is to invite more relatives if friends cannot make it even though you might lugi. But dont be surprise coz you never know they might give you more $$ Colleagues shouldnt be a problem. I remembered I have 1 table only 5 person sitting. And quite a few 8 person tables. But we dont care coz they last minute dont come is their lost and it will not affect our mood for the night. But its true during the process of calling them up to check if they are coming is tedious and frustrating. My wife did most of the calling, simply because she has more close friends than me I just called a few and thats it The rest of the casual friends I dont even bother to invite. Dont wanna waste my time. Moreover if I do try my luck and invite them they have to sit on the floor So conclusion is not to have too high minimum number of tables. Easy to cut who you can dont want to invite than to add Edited April 30, 2008 by Assassin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya i very du lan also....imagine last min I was in my wedding gown liao, then everything nice nice liao, i'm still re-arranging the seatings?? Then when you're done and are sure that that person won't be lonely, you hao xin sms them, the last thing u want to hear is oh they decided not to come... The most du lan thing is, if I nvr sms her, she has no intention of sms-ing me that she's not coming at all... The r/s between me and her changed a bit le....cos i know what kind of person she is le....i also dun wana talk much to her nowadays.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
