Harlo to those who support us and for those who dont.
Interesting. Erm....All i can say is point taken. I deal with all sorts of people everyday, some totally point blank silly and some really really nice jammers. As one guy put it, it takes two to complete the loop. So.....
Yes I get irritated when I deal with jammers frequently who dont know what they want and yet call up for a slot.
Things like
Hi Can i book a slot? .... erm when lah u know? next year or now or after u get married?
Or
Do you have a slot ah? And then every info that i require he has to confirm with his friends first.
Or
People who forget to cancel their slots and make me or my guys wait for nothing. But we tend to forgive those who call back to apologise.
Or
Hi do you have 7 to 9 tomorrow.
No man sorry its packed up tomorrow.
Oh......30secs silence............................................................really ah?
Erm yeah really.
Or still the champ
Hi can I book the studio B in the afternoon?
Sure but its booked from 3 to 5.
Oh ok then can i book 2 to 4?
That was at 10am on a sunday morning, and i dont go to church.
Sure man its funny sometimes, but too much of char kuay teow can give u heart pulpitations.
As Candie has put it, word of mouth can be detrimental or be helpful to the business. As we have read in this forum, some enjoyed their experience some did not. Welcome to life and the way the world revolves. I totally agree we aint a Giordano type of place. You want ear candy, sorry man, that aint me.
Mellapong, if I sounded as if I scolded you, well, apologies, but as u mentioned.. you were late.
Since we are all on this topic of studio etiquette, hope maybe u all can try to show this to all studios?
1) Arrive on time
2) Granted emergencies, cancel at least two days in advance.
3) If you are late and expect extensions, you might not get it. unless you wanna talk to the next band urself.
4) Be a humble and responsible jammer. Ear candling helps if you think its getting softer all the time.
5) Do not call us up and ask if the coffee shop nearby has got good food, whats the price and opening hours. *
* I think that only happened to me
So, well, thats my thoughts and wishes. If some of u are still not satisfied with my response, there really is nothing i can do about it. But for those who have enjoyed ur time, its been a pleasure for us as well.
Cheers everyone.
