hihi all,
I myself personally saw Mrs Chia conducting my frend's ROM. Thus, i was quite determined to have her as my Solemniser. However, she is not that professional as it seems. She played me out, not once, but twice.
Here's my story.
My ROM cum AD is on 20.09. Knowing its a very popular date, I started to hunt for JPs since March. And it was in Mar 09 that she agreed to conduct my ROM for me at 5.30pm. She also mentioned tat she needs someone to send her to and fro from her hse, to my venue, and back, which i agreed to.
In April, she called me and told me that she might not be able to do it for me, as she has too many requests, and mine was not in town. This is the first time she broke her promise. However, I was quite sure that I wnated her to conduct my ROM for me. So after a few calls, and a few checks on her side, she told me that mine will be the last she's going to do and that she would gladly do it for me.
3 days ago, she called me again. This time, she said that I am going to be her first couple for the day, and her next couple is at 6pm, so she cant do mine. I was both shocked and angry with her. How can she promise another couple to do it at 6pm when she has already promised to do mine at 5.30pm? Anyone can tell that there is simpky nt enough time. And, she didnt sound very apologetic about it. She just told me that there is ample time to find another JP and said bye to me.
OMG! Though this is voluntary, i still didnt xpect this coming from a JP lor...Should have better time management ma. She doesnt even value our ROM lor..im utterly disappointed and disgusted with her.
So, just a word of caution. If you really want her to conduct your ROM, be sure to confirm with her again and again..czuse she can just play you out anytime. Also, its better to have a backup in case anything happens...
Just my 2 cents worth.
