Natural vs Professional
Ok before i start on what i wanted to post about, here's smth more urgent:
RECRUITMENT DRIVE FOR FLOORBALL TEAM!!!!!!!
Right ppl, want to play floorball during next sat's floorball carnival, under the tutelage of the great Aaron Chenz who has deep experience playing with his church team? then JOIN US!!!!
Details: The tourney is from 11-3, we'll get to play 4 matches, each person contribute 2.50 to the $10 registration fee. We're not planning to have any subs so you'll get to play ALL 4 MATCHES!!!
Requirements:
-Reasonably Athletic ( smth like silver in NAPFA 'd do, or if u just fail pullups its alright as well. Just no 2.4 failures, cuz we're not playing subs and we need ya to RUN RUN AND RUNNNNNNN)
Yeahhh thats abt it. Btw the team comprises me ben goh and aaron chenz. And for ppl like those ben had asked and they said what this event is a 'Mainstream' event and they GEP don't want to go, lemme assure u that we're 100% non-streamist! I mean come on lah whats in 3 letters, G-E-P?
Now on to the topic of the day. My SP tourney experience.
The day started off bad, i went late and i think thats really a turn off. Anyway the tourney was supposed to start at one and we only had our captains meeting at like, 3+? We all got pissed and ppl started complaining and yiheng was saying "All your fault why u register" a few times and i got pissed and told him "You shut up i'm pissed enough". Cuz all the organiser said when i went to ask a few times is 'wait wait wait'. and yiheng wasnt the only one complaining.but aiyah i should controlled myself.
But i'm sorry for all these outbursts i had, including being pissed at patrick when he called cuz i had picked up 4phone calls IN A ROW.
okok i ought to go for an anger management course.
But anyway i fared better later considering at the capts meeting how other capts behaved. Some were rather rude. So lemme say what i think here.
I've come to believe that while getting angry over such stuff is only Natural, behaving rudely is Unprofessional.Reason's simple. Cuz the organiser, knowing that the comp has already been delayed (reason for which is as yet unknown, but we can venture the reasonable guess that he has been saddled with probelms) would hardly be in the best of moods and pissing him off even more doesnt help things. Yah i know ppl's pissed (someone said, this thing is so fucked up =/ ) But look: Quite simply, our job as captains is to work things out to the best possible situation for our team.
And in RI's case, i believe the best way out was to withdraw.
which we did.
I heard from hansiong that they ended up playing only 1 round today. Oh my. I stand by my decision to withdraw even more. And Hanyu said they only started playing at 4+. By then i was already at jurong east watching pirates of the caribbeans movie. Wheee!
Hardly the best ending for the last tournament i'm gonna lead the team into.
But it was an educational one.

Gd one. Although I dont know what comp is it, I support yr decision to withdraw. The organization seems to suck. Some pple just cant organize "big" events. Reminds me of my red cross HQ.
