An afternoon with Mr.R

Today at 2pm, i was supposed to get my document signed by Mr.R, so i went to the dean's office. Lucky! He's there....and that's how the whole story begins

Mr.R : What do you want?
Me : Sir, can you please sign this document for me?
Mr.R : No no... i am going out now,come back after 4pm.
Me : Sir, can't you just sign it for me now?
Mr.R : After 4pm...

Fine...At 4pm.
Me : Sir, can you sign this for me now?
Mr.R : (by looking at my papers) No no, you gotta pay full amount...I won't sign for you unless you pay full.
Me : But sir, the lady didn't mention about this when i was making the payment.
Mr.R: I don't care
Me : Fine (WTH, didn't they communicate about this before)

Ok...i got no choice, but to call my friend to bring me the money. And then made the payment
Me : Sir , can you sign for me now?
Mr.R : (By looking at the papers again) Ok....after this bring these papers to the control department, and then come back to me again
Me : Ok

Waiting for nearly 20minutes for that particular lady to come back to the office just to write the date and draw 'sth' for me. Wonder why can't others in the office do this simple thing for me? Perhaps they must have the 'diplom' to write date and name?

Me : Sir, it's done now.
Mr.R : Ok, now go to get the signature from the dean.
Me : (WTF, making me running here and there) Fine, i will go

After getting the signature.
Me : Sir, here is it.
Mr.R : No no....the dean must sign on the opposite side of this paper...
Me : But sir, aren't they the same?
Mr.R: No no, they are different.
Me : Fine!

After seeing the dean for the 2nd time.
Me : Sir, is it done now?
Mr.R: Yeah yeah..it's done.

The End

Well...i though i can come home and have a rest. Who knows i gotta spend my precious afternoon nap with Mr.R. It's not the 1st time such thing happened to me, and certainly it won't be the last. Wonder when those people in the dean's office will be more efficient? and will look after the welfare of students? Haih....doubt if i can see any changes in next feew years time...Whatever is it, just accept it. Btw, i just found out actually there's just 20/22hrs in a day, depends on how many lectures i have in a day!
