Then I told my staffs what they need to do today. Today when I asked anyone is available in Sunday for photoshootings, all of them told me they are busy, but next month I have a vacation in sri lanka, maybe some days for work, some days for holiday with my daughter so they will also get free during that days and I already told them what will happened, and I told you should work hard before I leave. That’s why their answers make me feel so angry.
