Why am i busying myself with nothing?

It's been more than a mth since I joined that dratted committee. I've stopped working early in the holidays thinking that I'll be involved in some meaningful event, but now, i feel that i shouldn't have signed up at all...

In the period, I've went to a grand total of 3 meetings, 2 of which are crashing into a committee that I'm not in, and another one which totally does not require my presence. Apart from that, I've not heard from the head of my committee(Erwin) until I emailed him, and not seen him till yesterday (the start of the event) and I really have an issue with him.

All the things that I've done so far are basically Sai Kang.. Registration for the event(last week), collecting a rented vehicle in Sin Ming Ave (Bishan for pple like me who donno where it is), chauffeuring pple around and delivering gds (yesterday)..

I was told to collect the vehicle at 7.30am, so can you imagine how early I have to wake up? Though I have my doubts that the rental company will be opened so early in the morning, I reached there on time and as I thought, it was not opened. So I msg Erwin, and now he tell me the company opens at 8.30am. WTF!! NVM, I wait... When I went to pick him up at Suntec, he told me actually he wanted to meet me at 7.30am (for f***) and he overslept (he was supposed to be at Suntec for some matter and did not sleep the whole night), to collect the vehicle.. Was he actually thinking of meeting me at Suntec? Mind you, he knows where I stay.. 7.30am? He's got to be kidding...

Today, he once again SMS-ed me and told me to return the vehicle to the company as they won't be using it. It was already 2pm, mind you, it's saturday today and most places work half day, and it is mostly the case for this company, since they are located at such an ulu place. Ok, no one answered the phone of the company, no problem, I can bring the vehicle over and take a look, at most I think of something else if the company was closed. So off to Suntec to get the van.. As Comex is also on going, Suntec was so crowded.. All the way from City Hall MRT, the traffic was so heavy, especially the bridge from City Link to Suntec, you have to queue up to get across.

When I finally reach the tentage, Erwin was no where to be found. When I called him, he told me he wasn't there and will get someone to call me then hang up before i can finish asking.. He got Violet to call me, and we met. Guess what she told me... They will need the van tmr and no intention of returning it today. Think there was mis-communication between them.. Do they think it's fun to spend 1 hr going down to Suntec and another 1 hr back to listen to some rubbish like that?

All together, he's already made me spent $4.50 on transportations, and wasted 7 hrs of my time which include making me go a big round to Mei Ling Street from Suntec.. Telling me to take the exit at NUH and travel thru South Buona Vista Road to Pasir Panjang Road to Alexandra Road and getting lost there (see map), instead of taking the Normanton Park exit, cutting through Queensway and getting to our destination (see map). Does he even know how to use the street directory?

If Chubbs think think that he's made "another botched attempt", he shd think again. This event is poorly organised and communication among them are bad, not worth wasting time on it.
