Jatuke Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 My fiancee has an interview coming up in two weeks. Should we reschedule our interview date, until order is restored in Guangzhou and China? Does anyone know or experienced rescheduling an interview date? I'm trying to contact GUZ. Link to comment
lori&dave Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 I heard that a re-schedule will take another 3 months, do u want ur fiancee to wait that long in China? Link to comment
Jatuke Posted April 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Well we have to weigh the risks and benefits. And with the situation getting worse in China, it's better to be safe. Link to comment
ChinaRose Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 To come this far ... and then let "what if" take over? Please don't do that to your lady. I'm sure many an explorer to America were killed at sea. But it's because of those who persisted that America is what it is today ... home to millions and millions of immigrants. Perhaps in three months, it'll even be worse than now. Be brave and strong and persevere! Many blessings! Rose Link to comment
tparrent Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 The only reason you should reschedule is if you want to give us your interview time Seriously, do you know what the risk of catching SARS is during your time in GZ? It's approximately 0.000000018 Depending on how you calculate it that may be off by a zero in either direction. The point is, it is SMALL, really small. Go get your honey. Link to comment
tparrent Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 One other thing. The chance of GZ screwing up your reschedule is very close to 100% Link to comment
AngryTexan Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Tparrent is certainly correct when it comes to the second calculation. My fear for you is that you will fall into the Mother of All Black Holes if you try to reschedule. Please do not attempt to underestimate the incompetence at GZ - if there is ANY possible way for them to screw up, they will find it. In fact, I'm convinced that they have at least one full-time staffer who does nothing but sit around all day and think of ways for them to demonstrate their incompetence. Don't reschedule.

danswayne Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 We were both in GZ twice just 2 weeks ago and not a fever yet. Seriously when we were there there were not too many people wearing masks, it seems that since GZ was hit first they have gotten over the worse part already. I also agree with the other 2 never give GZ a chance to make another mistake. Whatever they give take it and run before they lose the papers again. Link to comment
Jatuke Posted April 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Thanks for the encouraging and reassuring responses. Link to comment
wolf Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 In 3 months even if your interview was on, GZ could change the rules again and you may be in big trouble. My other half has been to GZ for 3 times this month and she said it isn't that bad there now. If you are healthy, even if you catch SARS your chance of death would be very slim. Don't take the chance, get the interview over with. Link to comment
