Some time ago (long before her baby was born) Jess from MWWAH organised a heap of small business and work and home mum's contributions to put together a baby basket for Jackie O. She did such an amazing job chasing up promised donations and getting it all together, and today she is a little upset (to say the least) that not only has there been no acknowledgment of the gift, but also, no response to calls or emails to verify receipt of the basket!!
I just feel this is a little rude ... I mean, how long does it take to say "Thank you"? Or send a simple message to say "Yes, it has been received"?
I understand that celebrities are busy people, as are first time mothers, as are mums to any newborn!! But even if Jackie O herself doesn't have time to respond, surely there is some radio executive (or "gofer" even!) who can take 10 seconds out of their day to give Jess a response.
Gee, even if there are a hundred people waiting for a response, that's still only 16 minutes to respond to everyone! Not alot of time is it?
I know that every single WAHM / MWWAH / small business owner puts a heck of alot of time into what they do (especially the ones who hand make their products, or spend much of their time administrating their business!), so to be acknowledged for something that you have put your heart and soul into means alot to us (and especially Jess, being the brains behind it all!)
Maybe it's time that celebrities took a step back and realised that they wouldn't be where they are without the support (and often times admiration) of the general public! Remember when they were the "little people" .... just a thought there celebs ....
exquizitely yours
