ooh. have to talk abt my FIRST day at work. ever. it was yesterday... PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS FAREWELL DINNER... i was kind of lonely cos they didn t let my sister work... n everyone else was just there with some friends so i was just.... arg. at least i did make some friends there... theyre really nice though a friend warned me beforehand that there was lots of bad company there... it was all ok so far... had a little trouble carrying the trays initially but no major screw ups at the reception... with all the VIPS... they are all REALLY tall btw... so they couldnt hear us if we werent loud enough.
hehz.... at the dinner thing though... someone bumped into me at the bar and i knocked the red wine all over myself... terrible... my uniform turned pink... it was a nice colour:) but sUPER duPER embarrrassing... i looked like some giant chupachoops strawberries n cream lollipop... yes the EXACT same colours... walking ard the endless tunnels and passageways teeming with staff didnt help very much... i was pretty much the laughing stock of all the aunties n uncles n students working there... but they were really nice abt it... this old bartender was sweet enough to teach me how to hold the stupid trays properly after that... cos i think i looked pretty pathetic trying to balance them... the whole night there were these peole asking me the same question: how old are u? first day right??! hahahaha.... :( even the people i was serving... urgh. had to ask one of those customers which was the red wine glass... cos all of them seem to know their wine stuff pretty well... i was kind of nervous cos they looked like CEOs and stuff... there were like 3 or 4 ministers n a DPM at the event...
WAITRESSING IS NOT AN EASY JOB... at least fer me...:p my arms are all aching from those damn trays... they are actually really light... but when u try to balance all those glasses on top without shaking ur arms ache within one hour... i worked for 6 friggin hours. damn. 6 friggin hours slogging my guts out to pay off one days worth of playing pool and cab fare. the irony is that the reason why i was taking a cab was to rush to that job training thing,n i also spent $10 on the ic size photos to make my employee pass
you are a loser at 4:00 PM
