Warning letter for Ris Low on her first day at work
Yes, it's Ris Low grabbing the headlines again!
The dethroned Miss Singapore World has again made herself the centre of attention when she received a warning letter for being two hours late on her first day at work.
Low was offered a one-year contract to be a deejay on 98.7FM in Singapore. She is joining Shan Wee and Rosalyn Lee to host the Shan & Rozz Show from 4pm to 8pm on weekdays.
On Monday, which was her first day at work, Low only showed up at 6.02pm, according to Shinmin Daily.
She apologised to the listeners and said she thought 1600 hours was 6pm.
"It was raining, I was having my hair done in a salon in a shopping complex, I was too comfortable and fell asleep," she said.
In an interview with the daily later, Low said she had received a warning letter for being late.
The letter also reminded her that the company would take action against her if she came in late again and that she could be sacked.
Low explained that she has always been punctual for work.
"I will not be late again," she said.
A message in her blog, titled First Day at Work - was LATE!, Low wrote: "I thought I saw 1600hrs as 600hrs. So I came in on time. Not my fault that the contract weren't clear enough.
"How could they blame me for it... I have a valid reason!"
