Here’s the story.
First of all, I love Photography…
I wanted to join a school organization that has the same passion as me… …that is the Flickers Photo Society
So I did this time.
I did not want to join before because another student that I hate so much is also a member.
And when I though that he wasn’t a member anymore, I decided to join.
I ran through the screening process and lo-and-behold it’s the most frustrating screening process.
It was like a game where you’ll search for a person and he/she’ll give you another task or a certificate of some sort.
The message was sent through Blast Text (group message).
It’s say… Look for a girl wearing a pink blouse and a white skirt in the Cafeteria (1st floor), rm 301 (3rd floor), or Library (7th floor) from 10:00am - 11:00am or 12:00pm - 2:30pm. And that she might be the one who interviewed us before.
So, okay, I have three floors to cover. What’s worse, it’s a Friday, all girls are wearing Pink!!
Fine, I couldn’t find her. Because, hell yeah, everybody’s wearing pink! And I have classes already.
So another blast text was send to go to her again, this time directly at rm 301.
I went there between the interval of my class.
They asked me a few things and made me do an errand to pass the screening and be a member.
What can you contribute to the group that is worth 5 pesos.
I got pissed off when I went out of the room. Why? First of all, they made me search the whole building to find a girl wearing a pink blouse, who I do not know. Secondly, the gal is not wearing a pink blouse, it’s a pink shirt. Thridly, she’s not the one weho interviewed me. Thirdly, they want to make me contribute to their organization without confirming that I’m a member already. Forth, I do not bring any money even 1 pesos because I do not need to buy anything nor commute to-and-from school, therefor I cannot pass the last test. Fifth, I saw the student that I hated there in the room and apparently he is the head honch… the president of the organization!
I’m so pissed that when I get back to the classroom, my instructor noticed. hahaha
So, I told him the story and as to why I’m pissed.
With that in mind legally, I’m not a member since I did not pass the screening.
After a few days, I still get those blast texts..
And I replied to one of the messages: ‘Please remove my number from this list for I am not a member of this Flickers Society.’
And he replied back: ‘Why?’
I replied back: ‘I did not complete the screening, therefor I am not a member of the organization.’
He replied: ‘Don’t worry about it. Welcome to the organization.’
I replied: ‘I am not interested anymore. Thank you!’
He did not reply back, and removed my number from the list. He was the Vice-President, by the way.
Well, that was way back in July.
Today, I received another text message… and at 7 o’clock in the morning.
Even ur terminated, u can still help the Flickers Photo Society. This is a learning process that u should undergo. U can redeem urself by participating in our activities as a “guest”. The doors of Flickers Photo Society is widely open & we want everyone to give another chance. To see how passionate & dedicated u are in this craft.
Thanks & God bless!Ü
First of all I’m not terminated! Secondly, I do not need to redeem myself to such non-sense. Thirdly, I do not need to show my passion the that craft, that is photography, just by attending their “activities”.
So I replied.
How can i be terminated if i had quit a few months ago?
He / she still replied.
Pls wait 4 d letter, b4 u told us na magquit ka u exceed 3 consecutive absences & didnt c0mply with the requirements.
I replied.
Of course i didn’t. Screening pa lang nagquit na ako. Alangan naman pumasok pa ako…
With that said he/she did not reply anymore.
